      <title>IE 8 - Trying to view PDFs using external Acrobat Reader</title>
      <link>https://communities.vmware.com/t5/ThinApp/IE-8-Trying-to-view-PDFs-using-external-Acrobat-Reader/m-p/2622275#M6859</link>
      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Running version 4.6.2-467908 and TA'd IE 8 on a clean XP SP3 with FLash and Schockwave (pretty basic) and it works fine. However, when I try to view a PDF file (I have Acrobat Reader X installed) I get a gray screen, acrord32.exe is running in memory and eventually I get a message from reader indicating that there was a problem with reader and I need to exit and try and again.&amp;nbsp; In the native browser (ie6) it works fine.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have made sure that the %Internet Cache% is set to merged and from other posts I have set ChildProcessEnvironmentDefault=External.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Any thoughts? I've seen other posts where this is working and I don't want to capture reader with IE.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks saw this one in a prior post and already tried it with the same results. I'm running build outside of my clean packaging machine. I read one post that they recommend using the actual vm instance I used to build the initial package.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Toby,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;So still could not get it to work so I thought let's break some rules. I installed Acrobat Reader 9.x before the snapshop and made sure it worked. I then installed IE8, flash, and loaded a pdf within the browser, and did the final capture. Works great, however, on my test if Adobe Reader X is installed, TA'd IE8 gives me a memory reference error when exiting. Still a little issue but at least it works now.&amp;nbsp; Thanks for your help.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
