Acrobat Reader 6 Dynamic PDF's not displaying

[terrywilson]

We use a product called Liquid Office, Liquid Office contains PDF forms which you complete and submit via a web interface (I think its scripted together with Javascript).

I have upgraded from Acro Reader 5.05 to 6.whatever the latest is and now when I click to launch a form in the web browser (Both are published as Seamless apps). the acrobat window opesn (inside IE) and just has an hourglass.

If I launch a desktop as the same user it launches just fine so it appears to not work as a seamless app.

Looking at the sessions I was doing everything on the same server both times.

I have tried changing everything I can in Acrobat Preferences but to no avail. Any ideas?

Have you tried disabling IE Integration for the Adobe pdf's and just letting it launch acrobat as a separate application rather than trying to view it from within IE?

In adobe, Edit Menu > Preferences (CTRL +K) > Internet > Webbrowser Options > "unselect" Display PDF in browser.

Yes I have tried toggling those settings.

The truly strange thing here (I think) is that if I run IE and Acrobat Reader on a published desktop it works just fine, but if I run them as published apps on the same server Acrobat just loads and gives the hourglass trying to open the form.

OK, I have noticed something else

When you launch the PDF you click on a link in the browser, which opens a new window which opens the PDF (in another window in acrobat).

If you do this from the server desktop the link that opens in acrobat is

http://eform/lfserver/497f6zfa823d4...968zx7e97172x31x48x36&1977bd:fb88fcc968:-7e95

But if you do it from applications the link is shorted;

on 7 -

http://eform/lfserver?DFS__Action=G...31x48x36&:1977bdzfb88fcc968zx7e9b172x31x48x36

Its as if its cutting off everything from the last & symbol. Any ideas?
