Cannot open pdf in reader on Samsung tablet

Aug 15, 2012 8:04 PM

I have downloaded the latest version of Adobe Reader on Galaxy Tab but when I try to open a document I get the following:

"If this message is not eventually replaced by the proper contents of the document, your PDF viewer may not be able to display this type of document."

I have been able to open other pdf's before.

Any suggestions?

This PDF is a PDF that is a "Dynamic XFA" document inside a PDF wrapper, which is generated by Adobe's LiveCycle server. Adobe Reader for Android supports all basic/standard PDF, but does not support displaying this kind of XFA PDF.

Hi Dennis,

Thanks for your reply; I now know why I can't read certain pdfs. However, what I'd really like to kmow, is if there is a solution, or a planned solution to this problem?
