PDF objects remain locked after being closed

Last update: 7 November 2019 (cf)

Summary

When you open a PDF object with the Fabasoft web browser client and then close it after viewing/editing, the Fabasoft Folio Plug-in doesn't regonize the closing of the document, resulting in the object remaining locked for an unspecified period of time.

Attention: This registry keys are not required in Fabasoft Folio / Fabasoft eGov-Suite 2016 and above. If you have an issue with locked pdf objects in Fabasoft Folio / Fabasoft eGov-Suite 2016 and above, please contact Fabasoft Support.

Solution

Change/Add the registry values below according to your version of Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Acrobat Reader.

When closing the PDF document, verify that the application itself is closed as well, otherwise the Fabasoft Folio Plug-in might not be able to recognize the closing of the document.
