Change default to open pdfs from Adobe Reader to dopdf
Posted: Sun Jun 10, 2012 11:36 am
Can someone tell me how to always have my pdfs open with dopdf (rather than Adobe Reader). Before I installed Adobe Reader on my Windows 7 PC, I was able to double-click the pdfs (after creating them with dopdf) and they would open and I could even make changes to the pdfs. Now they open with Adobe and I can't. One thing that's happening with this particular Word document is that it's randomly throwing little black dots (they look like round bullets) throughout the document. Before when I was just using dopdf, I was able to select a typing tool and I could delete them. Now I can't.
I tried going into Default Programs to change it to dopdf, but now when I send a document to print or double-click a pdf to open it, it opens a little dopdf message box that says "Convert a file to pdf" and asks for the file name and location and has a create button. At the bottom of the box it has instructions on how to send a document to the printer to create a pdf.
Please let me know if you need further information. Thanks, Pat
