CreatePDF not listed in 'Open in...' menu

Sep 2, 2011 1:51 AM

Dear all, I have installed CreatePDF on my Ipad2, and I do not get CreatePDF as an option in the 'Open in...' menu. If I click a docx, I can choose between Open in Pages or Teamwiewer, xlsx-files let me choose between Numbers and Teamviewer! But never and with no file type it gives me CreatePDF! Is there anything I need to do, to make this work? I have tried deleting and and reinstallation, but that does not help. I am currently unable to use this app at all, as I can't find a way to get files in the app for conversion.

    Yes they are! I have docx in my mail as well as xlsx! They all don't give the CreatePDF as an option when clicking on 'open with...'

    Hi Dennis,

     

    This is very unfortunate. I'm seeing it work perfectly on iPad2 with me.

     

    Just to be double sure, 'click and hold' on docx/xlsx should given 'Open In' option in Mail. If you click these documents in Mail, they'll open in Preview from where again these can be taken to Adobe CreatePDF app by using 'Open In' that gets listed under the Action button.

    Both ways do not work for me.

     

    If I click and hold, no CreatePDF in open with, and when I click and open it in Preview, no CreatePDF either!

    Hi Dennis,

     

    Could you please check that you see CreatePDF app in Settings->Apps.

    If you don't see CreatePDF in Setting you can try restarting your iPad and installing CreatePDF again.

     

    Thanks,

    Deepa

    Adobe CreatePDF Team.

    Few things that might help us in getting the problem:

     

    Are you able to launch the installed CreatePDF app by tapping on the CreatePDF icon?

    Also, could you try opening a file from Safari or any other app like drop box and see if CreatePDF is shown in the OpenIn list?

    What is the iOS version on your iPad2?

     

    Thanks,

    Deepa

    YES

    Shows when I click 'open in...' on a .doc file in the iDisk app, does NOT show on .docx file

     

    What is the iOS version on your iPad2? Version 4.3.5

    Hi Dennis,

     

    Could you please send us the screenshot of your iPad screen for following cases if you are still facing the problem:

    -Long tap on an Email attachment(say doc),Tap on Open In(showing list of apps that can open the file)

    -Open the doc/docx in Previewer and select Open In(showing list of apps that can open the file).

    Also, could you confirm, how many apps do you see in Open In?

     

    Thanks,

    Deepa

    Hey Dennis,

     

    If you are still not seeing Adobe CreatePDf app listed in Open In menu, you can try out few things:

     

    -try to scroll the list? CreatePDF might be appearing somewhere at the bottom of the list not visible.
    -If you cant see the app even then, try deleting apps that you dont use often (It appears that on iPad, few apps may not appear on the list  if you have many apps that should appear in the Open In list, So, CreatePDFmight not be visible if you have many other apps on your iPad).

     

    Thanks,
    Deepa
