Hello,
our clients PCs have both Acrobat Pro and Reader installed. All all PCs the Pro version is the default program for PDF, so if I click on PDF file Acrobat Pro opens.
We also manage our PDF documents in SharePoint 2010.
Now to the actual problem: on editing PDF documents from a SharePoint library, on some client PCs the Acrobat Pro is opened and on some - Acrobat Reader (in both cases with checkout-promt in the application). We would like to edit PDF documents always with Acrobat Pro. Reader is only used to show PDF documents in browser in read-only mode.
The question is, how can we control what application is used when opening files from SharePoint? Why is the behavior different?
All the clients also have Adobe Reader browser plugin active (so also the clients where Acrobat Pro is opened as expected when editing documents).
Are there further registry keys / configuration entries that control the behavior of "AdobeAcrobat.OpenDocuments.3" component?
Thanks in advance for any help and ideas!
Best regards,
Maxim
