LLXX Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Put msvcp71.dll in the same directory as the acrord32.exe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LLXX Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 What version of Acrobat are you using?Maybe try an older version. They're much easier to work with as standalone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcusstringer Posted June 4, 2006 Author Share Posted June 4, 2006 I'm trying with Acrobat 7 reader.I'll give it a go with 6 and get back to you..ThanksMarcus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcusstringer Posted June 5, 2006 Author Share Posted June 5, 2006 Nope...didn't work...Tried it version 6 readerI'm getting that same error on every PC I try it on...Any other suggestions???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synapse Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 (edited) sorry if this takes the original thread off topic, but wouldn't it be more wise to use the Freeware Utility "Foxit PDF Reader"?it's standalone and to me is a lot better then Adobe Acrobat. It's written in c++ so you may also need the msvcp71.dll (as thats the runtime dll for c++ apps) Edited June 5, 2006 by Bi0haZarD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LLXX Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 (edited) Foxit's text renderer doesn't do a very good job at rendering documents of mainly text...By older version, I meant 5.x or 4.01, stripped of plugins and unnecessary files.Acrobat 7 and 6 are very similar.

Synapse Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 (edited) ahh thanks for mentioning that LLXX.The PDF's i look at are usually Ebooks at 125% zoom and have the navigation on the side pretty narrow. Edited June 5, 2006 by Bi0haZarD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcusstringer Posted June 6, 2006 Author Share Posted June 6, 2006 Ok....Let me just thank LLXX for his suggestions, they were spot on.I did have to go back to Acrobat Reader 5 (which, by the way, was the earliest I could go back)And that worked.Again, thankyou,I find it increadable that the lastest version didn't work...
