I'm having problems using Adobe CS3 Acrobat 8 Professional on my MacBook after a system software upgrade from Mac OS X 10.5.8 to Mac OS X 10.6.8, Snow Leopard. I want to reinstall CS3 Acrobat 8 Professional. Just now installed Sierra and I was able after legacy Java update offered to run Photoshop CS5, Indesign CS5, Illustrator CS5, Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. All seems to work as in El Capitan - it crashes only when closing the app and the bridge I do not use. Autocad & Illustrator CC having APFS issues, PDF data inconsistently retained in High Sierra By Thursday, October 05, 2017, 06:55 am PT (09:55 am ET) While High Sierra as a whole is not specifically to blame, the implementation of APFS is causing problems for a number of AutoCAD 2017 and Adobe Acrobat CC users —with users of the former having a new patch available, and the latter out of luck for now. Additionally, users need to be cautious when manipulating PDFs in both Preview and Adobe Acrobat Reader. AutoCAD for Mac The release version of AutoCAD, version 2017.0, is incompatible with High Sierra's APFS in every regard. However, a recent update with version number 2017.2 supports both HFS+ and APFS in case-insensitive format —and there is a new installer package available as well. By default, APFS is case-insensitive. ![]() According to, earlier versions, such as the 2015 version, are not designed for High Sierra, and no update plan appears to be available to make them compatible. An update for AutoCAD 2016 to support APFS is forthcoming. Adobe Illustrator CC Adobe Illustrator CC users are also having problems with case sensitive APFS drives during installation and uninstall procuedures. Additionally, all APFS users are subject to errors when launching the app, opening a file, creating a document, or licensing templates or other assets. There is no fix at present for Illustrator's issues with High Sierra's APFS. According to Adobe, a complete solution, but no timetable has been given. Other users are reporting rendering errors. These are related to partially incompatible GPUs, and GPU-assisted rendering can be disabled to rectify the problem. PDF data not uniformly altered AppleInsider can also confirm that there are some oddities in user-fillable PDFs between Adobe Acrobat Reader, and Preview. Re: where is the Geniego app?

A PDF form with pull-down options will not always retain the same data when migrated between the two apps. A PDF modified in Preview will display properly in Preview, but have altered menu selections in Adobe Acrobat Reader, and vice versa. Results vary when the generated PDF is handed to a Windows user. The same apps in Sierra do not manifest the same behavior, with the changes being saved and interpreted properly across the board. The work-around for the behavior is to modify and open the PDF in the same application. It is unclear what the root cause of the issue is, or if a patch will be issued —and by whom also remains up in the air. You’ve purchased a copy of the new Mac OS X version, Snow Leopard (10.6), and installed it on your computer. But the Adobe PDF Printer installed by Acrobat Pro isn’t working. For example, an early poster in the Adobe Acrobat Mac forum reported: Attempting to print to PDF via Adobe PDF 9.0 printer/driver causes the printer/driver to fire up and the progress windows indicates that distiller launches, but after that, the prompt for where to save the PDF to never appears and the file in the print queue disappears. ![]() What you need to know is that in Snow Leopard, the Acrobat team replaced the functionality of the Adobe PDF printer with an Automator function in the Print dialog called Save as Adobe PDF. It appears in the PDF menu at the bottom of the Print dialog. Choosing this option opens a dialog where you can select an Adobe PDF setting and choose to launch Acrobat or another PDF reader. (When you used the Adobe PDF Printer, you needed to discover that you had to choose “PDF Options” from the unlabelled popup menu in the dialog to make these choices. Alternatively, you had to choose the PDF setting in Distiller ahead of time. Now the options are much more obvious.) After making your choice, you’ll be prompted for a name for your PDF file and a location to save the file. Why the change? An provides a brief explanation: “Mac OS X Snow Leopard (v10.6)’s enhanced security features prevent Adobe’s PDF Printer from functioning as it did in previous versions.” Leonard Rosenthol, Adobe’s PDF guru, provides additional details: In a nutshell, Snow Leopard no longer supports the necessary OS features we need to install a Distiller-based printer. It’s just as well, as that print path (of PDF->PS->PDF) is REALLY SLOW and full of a HUGE number of bugs for many years now that we couldn’t fix due to how the Apple printing system works. With Snow Leopard, you now have a new PDF Workflow entry (the things in the PDF menu in the print dialog) called ‘Adobe PDF’ which will convert the Apple-based PDF into an Adobe-based PDF using your supplied/chosen Job Options. It does so via native PDF transcoding — no Postscript here!! So we still provide a method for creation of Adobe-quality PDFs, but it’s FASTER and MORE reliable! A few more issues you should know about: • For this new feature to work, you must upgrade to Acrobat 9.1.3, the current version (or at least Acrobat 9.1).
