Acrobat 9 Standard and Forms

Hello everyone,
First time caller, long time listener.
I have a small problem regarding forms in Acrobat.
I. have created a PDF from an old word file, with some tables where you can fill out your name.
2. In Acrobat, I open the newly created PDF file, and click on the button FORMS --> Add or Edit Forms. And all the fields pop up, and I can start altering the names of the boxes and whatnot. So far so good.
3. Then I save it to my desktop. Still fine.
4. I E-mail it to my collogue, where he/she opens it and fill out the form. And here is the kicker, he/she can't save it. They can only print. They use Reader, and I Standard.  Its something to do with extended permissions. But as far as I know, I haven't encrypted it. They have all the permissions needed.
Am I doing something wrong? Or perhaps my collogues? Of Course, the problem would be solved if they all used Standard or yet alone a PDF printer of some kind.
Many Thanks

Thanks. Bummer Then I must beg my boss for Pro that one feature
Thanks again

  • Acrobat X Standard and forms containing digital sigs

    Hi all,
    My first post here.
    In the office, we haveAdobe Acrobat X which we use to view and digitally sign PDF. I imported a word template form into Acrobat and made it interactive.
    It's basically a form with some 30 questions and a series of tick boxes (Yes/No). This is a quality check form. If the person finds mistakes during QC process, he/she sends reqquests changes, a second QC is in place and a series of tick-boxes completed. Again, this has a series of checkboxes. I added two digital sigs. One for each  user and in the properties section  of the first QC (let's call it the originator) made all fields read only when first QC was entered. This worked fine. Second person is then able to enter their own comments no problem BUT when digitally signing they get a popup that the signing operation failed as document was modified in unauthorised manner since previous signature was applied. Chatted to IT and a few people who know a few things about PDF etc but none of them have an idea why this is ocurring. Cn anyone help. What am I doing wrong. Can Acrobat do what I am asking it?

    Open the file
    Open the Tools panel
    Expand the Forms section on the Tools panel
    Click the Edit button in the Forms section of the Tools panel
    Right mouse click on the first signature field
    Select Properties from the pop-up menu
    On the Digital Signature Properties dialog, select the Signed tab
    My guess is you have already selected the Mark as read-only radio button, but if not then select it\
    Select  Just These Fields from the drop-down menu next to the radio button
    Click the Pick button
    Select just the fields that you expect the QC originator to have selected
    Click the OK button on the Field Selector dialog
    Click the Close button on the Digital Signature Properties dialog
    Click the Close Form Editing button in the Tasks panel
    That should fix the problem.

  • Acrobat 8 Standard and Acrobat X Pro unable to install

    Hello,
    I have purchased Acrobat 8 Standard and Acrobat X Pro, and have both serial numbers. 
    I am unable to install either in my new computer. 
    I do not have a disc for Acorbat 8, but do have one for Acrobat X Pro. 
    I have tried downloading from Download and Installation Help.  I received the following error message:  "Setup has detected that you already have a more functional product installed.  Setup will now terminate." 
    I have uninstalled and re-installed 8. 
    I have used the Adobe Reader and Acrobat Cleaner. 
    Nothing has worked so far. 
    I received an email from Adobe Help & Support. I replied in order to set up an appointment, but never received a response. 
    It was suggested in one of the last communications in another forum, that I post a new discussion in the Acrobat Installation & Update Issues forum. 
    Please help.

    Hi Elizabeth ,
    It is not recommended to download and run two Acrobat versions on the same machine as it can lead to some conflicts between the two and as well as with the activation server .
    Try and use single software on one machine .
    Please use the Adobe Cleaner tool to uninstall the software .Here is the link for the same .
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Once uninstalled ,try downloading the software once again and see if that works for you .Make sure you disable all the third party software while the installation is in progress to avoid any interruption.
    Or you could refer the following to download Acrobat X Pro .Acrobat 8 standard ,as it is an older version would not be available now .
    You could try and download Acrobat X referring the following KB document and serialize by typing the serial number mentioned on the disk .

  • Acrobat 8 Standard and Photoshop Elements

    I need to download my Acrobat 8 Standard and Photoshop Elements on my new computer. Adobe downloads will not let me do this and tech support says they cannot help because of the age of the products?

    You needed to keep them when you first downloaded. It's vital to keep downloads you pay for, and to burn them to CD so you don't lose them if your disk fails. It is likely to be too late to get these now, but let's see if someone has any info that might help. Good luck!

    I have Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard and I had to reload it on my computer due to my hard drive crashing. Now I can only open and view PDF’s  and I cannot edit them as I could before such as using Tools>Comment&Markup or Tools>Advanced Editing>TouchUp Text Tool. All the functions are greyed out. Please advise.

    What's your OS? Acrobat 8 is not compatible with any modern OS.

  • Using SMS to install Acrobat 7 Standard and 7.0.5 - 7.0.8 patches

    I am having problems with a package I created to install Acrobat 7 Standard and all it's updates. I this package I have created many programs. The first four programs are used to uninstall the previous version - 6.0.1, 6.0.2, 6.0.3 and 6.0.4. I used the command lines I got from the PDF document: "Install and remove Acrobat products using the command line (6.x on Windows)". All four programs went through successfully.
    The next program in this package is the one that installs Acrobat 7 Standard. I used InstallShield Tuner 7.0 to customize the Acrobat settings when installed. I used the command line for this program that was listed the PDF: "User Document: Adobe Acrobat 7.0 for Microsoft Systems Management Server". This program installed without a problem.
    The problem comes when the next program attempts to start. This is the program that installs the 7.0.5 update patch for Acrobat 7.0.0. At this point, this is where the package bombs. I have used the command lines provided in the PDF document: "Install and remove Acrobat products using the command line (7.0 on Windows)". I extracted the files from the .exe file of the patch and copied them to the source directory with all the other installation files for Acrobat 7 Standard.
    Not sure what to do at this point. Thanks in advance to anyone who can point me into the right direction!

    Glenn,
    I do not use any of the Acrobat instructions on deleting previous versions. I wrote a inf file from within MS Installer that removes all the Registry settings that the original installation of Acrobat 5 and 6 create. I also remove any files that remain on the PC. One reboot is needed and then a manual removal of the one or two files that stay in the ActiveX directory and the main Acrobat directory (used by windows until a reboot is performed). I then was successful in creating a package that delivers Acrobat 7 Pro with the updates to 7.05 and 7.08 by chaining them from within the setup ini file. I am now trying the same thing with Acrobat 7 standard but am having several separate issues.
    Good luck because I hope one day Adobe/Acrobat are replaced with another OEM that listens to it customers and will not have as big of Chat room as they have with so many open issues and continuous problems with ever release.

  • Concurrent Acrobat X Standard and Pro?

    Most of our employes run Acrobat X Standard, and a few require Acrobat X Pro.  We already own all of the Standard and Pro licenses that we need.  We have a Windows 2008 Terminal Server x64 and would like to install both Standard and Pro side by side. 
    We tested on a workstation, designating different install paths for Standard and Pro (and otherwise default settings),  Pro over-wrote Standard.  In the reverse order of installing, Standard won't over-write Pro.  Either way, we couldn't get both running.
    What can we do to support concurrent versions?
    Thanks,

  • Differences Between Acrobat XI Standard and Acrobat XI Pro PDF File Reduction Capabilities

    Hi all, I am looking into purchasing Acrobat XI but not sure which version I should get. I have worked with Acrobat 8 Standard and remembered that I cannot reduce PDF size by clicking Reduce File Size under Document if the PDF contains images so I am looking to upgrade. I have tried Acrobat XI Pro Trial version and messed around with Save As Other >> Reduced File PDF to reduce my PDF files and that seemed to work well. I've read that in Acrobat XI Standard, one can reduce PDF files by using Save As >> Reduce File and the resulting PDF file will be similar in size to the PDF file that had been reduced by the PRO version. Can someone please confirm this, thanks in advance.

    Hi sraja,
    Yes, that option is available in both the Acrobat Pro and Standard versions, and the results will be similar, if not the same. Acrobat Pro offers additional optimizing capability, as described here: Acrobat Help | Optimizing PDFs.
    I hope that helps!
    Best,
