I'm using Texify plugin for Pycharm to write latex. After running, I have to go manually to "out" folder and open it with Adobe. How to make Pycharm do that automatically?
I see this option but I don't know how to fill it up.
Adobe locking the pdf file is a well-known issue, and so Adobe is not supported by TeXiFy. Depending on which OS you are on, the following pdf viewers are supported (links to TeXiFy wiki pages):
All: internal PDF viewer, via the PDF viewer plugin.
Windows: SumatraPDF
Linux: Evince, Okular, and Zathura
Mac: Skim
where supported means that the pdf automatically opens on compilation and that forward and backward search should work, the latter possibly after some configuration.
When you want to use some other pdf viewer, make sure that it does not lock the pdf file (so Adobe is not possible) and enter the command you would use to open the viewer from the command line in the Select custom pdf viewer command field. This should work on (at least) most Linux and Mac distributions.
Edit
As of TeXiFy b0.7.4 the internal PDF viewer is supported through the PDF viewer plugin.
Alternatively there is a PDF Plugin, to open it within PyCharm, which you can install from the store.

I am trying to simply generate pdf file on windows from the command below:
convert 1.png mypdf.pdf
But when I open the generated pdf, it says Something went wrong. See the image below
Install and configure ImageMagick to work with AEM Assets. Then open the generated PDF using Adobe Acrobat Reader or any other document viewer, but Adobe Acrobat is recommended because it is developed by Adobe Inc. who also developed the Portable Document Format (PDF) in 1993.
tl;dr How can I make a PDF in the Sphinx html output open directly in the browser (or externally)? I want to click on the link and the PDF just opens.
I am currently trying to make sphinx create a link that opens a PDF file in the browser instead of downloading it. So far I only found the download directive, which is useful but I do not want to download those files as they are already available locally.
If there is no default way is there any way to extend Sphinx to achieve this behaviour?
I am generating PDF file using Crystal report ExportToDisk method in VB.NET 3.5.
Locally and on integration environment generated PDF file is much readable i.e.font size is good.
But the PDF file generated on production environment is different in formatting.The lines are wrapping and font size is also little small.
There is not Adobe installed on integration.
What may be causing this issue.Any suggestion?
Most reporting tools try and default page sizes and setting to the local default printer, or set specifically through code if this is not present, you could check that for page size.
If you are using a specific font, you may need to install that on the server.
There should be no dependency to Adobe Acrobat/Reader.
I have a simple Win32 app writen in C, in which I would like to open PDFs. I know I can compile and link to Poppler library, but is there a way to use Acrobat Reader? Kind of like what browsers do, if you have Reader installed, they are automatically able to display PDF in a window though some plugin interface. The problem is, I never used a plugin, not wrote such an interface. How to? Is it also possible to install Reader afterward and somehow make the app aware of its presence?
I would also like to control, say, the zoom. And what the PDF could be in memory, as well.
Edit:
I just found this [1]:
"If you have installed Adobe Reader, you can add a COM reference to the PDf viewer ActiveX control in VisualStudio and use it inside a WindowsFormsHost control."
but I don't understand what does it says: how do I create "COM reference" and use "WindowsFormsHost" in plain Win32 C?

On windows if you type mypdf.pdf and hit return in a Command Prompt it opens the pdf in the associated application (in most cases Adobe Reader). So in c# I start a new process with the pdf as the file to run.
You should be able to do something similar in c without bothering with plugins.
In addition to what Nifle said, if instead of running it as a separate application you want to run Acrobat Reader as a plugin within your application's window (as for example IE runs it within IE's window), Adobe Acrobat Reader download page says,
An ActiveX control for Internet Explorer and a plug-in for Netscape Navigator are included and automatically installed in the browser of your choice.
The plug-in technology is probably the technology called ActiveX.
I'm using SCO Unix, with old version of ghostscript (7.7). When I convert the postscript source file to pdf otput file, It's content is visible on the SCO machine. But when I copy the pdf file into windows, and open it with adobe acrobat, all I can see is a blank page. Does anybody have a solution to this?
It may because you have not embedded the fonts in the PDF. Windows did not have the Unix fonts and that is why are seeing a blank page. To be sure, open the PDF in Adobe Reader and press Ctrl+D. Check the fonts tab and see if those fonts are available in Windows. You could try copying the Unix fonts to Windows Fonts folder. But the better approach would be embed the fonts into the PDF on the Unix terminal itself.
