Hello there,

Thanks for the suggestion.

The issue happens on workstations and terminal servers/Citrix servers. Simply 
renaming an existing profile on any workstation/server from ntuser.dat to 
ntuser.man causes the issue.

Example: 
Im a Domain admin with a local profile and i can edit the pdf files. I log out 
and log in with another account to rename my profile to ntuser.man.I log back 
in and i am unable to edit the pdf files. 

I have also loaded the Adobe cert via AD GPO but still doesnt work.
After much testing it appears that adobe reader doesnt like mandatory profiles. 
It treats anyone with a mandatory profile as a guest/temporary user.


Regards

  DO you use the flex profile from loginconsultant?

   

  If so, maybe your issue is related to the certificate not being saved in a 
mandatory profile. use the FlexFramework to enable the certificate!

  Objet : [THIN] Adobe 7.x Reader Editing PDf files and Mandatory/ Hybrid 
Profiles

   

  I have found a bug in Adobe 7.x and was wondering whether anyone else had 
come across the issue.

   

  Since Adobe 7.0 it is possible able to modify certain pdf files depending on 
how they were generated. The PDF files also have an emdedded Adobe Trusted root 
certificate. 7.x.

   

  We have use Hybrid profiles and have now found that Adobe 7 does not actually 
work with PDf files that can be edited.

  This can be for any user including local admins and domain admins.

   

  This also is the case if a local profile is simply renamed to ntuser.man.

   

  Anyone seen this ?
