One of my friends called me about .pdf issues. I said him that I'm not a guru, but I try to help. He can't open .pdf file via Adobe Acrobat Reader after some failure. No one knows what failure is.

The cases then nothing can't solve your issue, to open or to repair .pdf document, then take a look at especial instrument unlike to adobe pdf repair tool

 

The article or guide you may call as you want contains useful information - https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/troubleshoot-pdf-printing-acrobat-reader.html

 

This is the source of manual below: http://itknowledgeexchange.techtarget.com/itanswers/how-can-i-fixrepair-a-corrupted-pdf-file/

 

Ghostscript will repair your corrupted PDF automatically… if it can open it in the first place (that is, if it is not damaged beyond repair). But afterwards you’ll still need to double-check the result…

On Windows, try this one:

 gswin32c.exe ^

  -o repaired.pdf ^

  -sDEVICE=pdfwrite ^

  -dPDFSETTINGS=/prepress ^

   corrupted.pdf
