PDF will not reload

2011-05-17 Thread Hafney
Hi,

I'm at the end of my rope with adobe acrobat. I'm using adobe acrobat reader 
10. I can successfully generate a pdf but I cannot update the pdf after I 
make changes to my .lyx document.  How do I fix this? (I'm using windows). 
I read some speculation that this could be a bug in adobe but that 
Lyx 2.0 solved the problem.  But I just installed Lyx 2.0 and the 
problem persists.  I read http://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ/PDF (near bottom) but 
still cannot solve my problem. I've now abandoned adobe all together and 
am using Sumatra (as advised in the wiki entry.)  

Could I fix this problem with acrobat?

Or did I make the right choice by dumping it? 

If that was the right choice, what is the best pdf viewer to use with Lyx? 
Any guidance will be much appreciated. Thanks.

Hafney

 This should be fixed with LyX 2.0. But you need the latest Adobe Reader for 
this: Adobe Reader X 
 (after installing it, install also the provided updates).
 If this doesn't work for you, please uninstall LyX 2.0.0 with its user 
settings and reinstall it 
 afterwards using the latest Windows installer you find at our homepage.

Hi Uwe.  Thanks for your reply.  I did as you suggested, 
and although I can still write to a pdf once, I still also
cannot update the pdf to reflect subsequent changes to my
file. I'm using Lyx 2.0 and acrobat reader 10.0.1 on windows 
7.  Could this have something to do with the default security 
settings in this version of acrobat? The problem also
exists with PDF-XChange PDF Viewer and the developers of 
that reader explained that it locks files while they are 
open and prevents being written to.  However, Sumatra works 
perfectly. 

Thanks.
