How to paste into PDF form opened by Adobe Reader?

Hi,
I need to fill out and fax a PDF form online that I've opened with Adobe Reader 9. Typing in the information is straightforward enough, however I can't seem to be able to paste onto the form. Is there some feature that I need to change that will enable me to do this?
I know the alternative is to print out the form and then fill it out but my preference is to do this online, if possible.
Thanks.

Hi,
Do you mean "open in full screen mode"?
If so there is an example here: https://acrobat.com/#d=JK2I24ZgmsvMr6BtCQNMOg
The script is in buttons to show the separate functions, but you can combine the ones you want in the docReady event.
Hope that helps,

How do I save/download a PDF file as an actual PDF that opens in Adobe Reader?

When I save/download a PDF from Google Chrome it always saves as an Internet Explorer file instead of a PDF that opens in Adobe Reader.
Why is this?
And how can I fix it?
I really need PDF files for school and work.

What means "an Internet Explorer file"; what is the file type / extension?
Also, how do you "save/download" these files?

Specific PDF not opening in Adobe Reader on Lumia ...

I get an error message on a Lumia 625 when trying to open a downloaded pdf (88Mb) in Adobe Reader Vers 10.4.3.
I have more than 3Gb free space. The file seems to be successfully downloaded & joins the list of all PDF documents in the Adobe Reader app. All other PDFs DO open OK. Just not this one.
The message reads “The document path is not valid” & phone screen shows “Loading...” but fails to actually open anything
What does this mean & how do I fix it? Thankyou in advance...

Thankyou. The Central Question over this Lumia 625 inability to open a specific pdf (by Lonely Planet) remains:-I could uninstall this Adobe Reader app but think this is not the problem as this app does indeed open all other pdf's on my phone successfully, e.g. the Lonely Planet Invoice!
On the other hand, this particular downloaded & installed pdf can be read on my home PC, my Macbook & my IpodTouch so I can't attribute fault to the filename.
The basic Troubleshoot step of a "soft reset" is NOT described in the Lumia 625 User Guide & I'm pessimistic this arbitrary step will bear fruit. I have come to the conclusion that no matter what I do, this Lumia model using the MIcrosoft OS has a system flaw that is unable to read the file (a file that other devices & another OS can read) & I will not waste time with ad hoc actions such as resets as this is not a hobby for me.
The pdf in question (88Mb, Lumia free space is >3Gb) is a travel guide I'd like to use on my next trip & this Lumia 625 is proving not worthy of coming with me. I am disappointed at the lack of "Customer Support" shown by the Nokia Company & I hope this is relayed as some "friendly feedback". Thank you for your own assistance, though.
I invite correction if this assessment is mistaken.

Why cannot I copy selected text from a pdf file opened in Adobe Reader XI?

Hi all,
I had a problem when I tried to copy some selected text on a pdf file([Linux.System.Programming(2nd,2013.5)].Robert.Love.文字版.pdf) , which was opened in Adobe Reader XI as below (non-English version):
The error's text could be primarily translated as "An error occured when copied to clipboard. Internal Error." I'm not sure about the reason of this. I guess it is a problem or bug related to operating system or Adobe Reader XI. I had this problem when I used other versions of Adobe Reader though I cannot remember the exact number of versions now.
The version of XI I'm using is 11.0.0. The operating system is XP SP3.
As I was writing this question, the problem disappeared and I cannot reproduce it again now.
Could anyone help explain why the error message appearred or why the problem disappearred? If there is referrence provided, that would be finer. Thank you.

Even if it doesn't have a password, the original author has applied "plagiarism" prevention to it.
There is a program from Wondershare, called PDF Password remover, that will remove such restrictions, but I'm not allowed to recommend it, only to point out it's existence.

Can I force the pdf to open in Adobe Reader?

<Captivate 7>
Hi,
In my lesson, I have a link that opens a pdf.
The pdf opens in the browser.
Is there any way to force it to open in Adobe Reader?
thanks!

Hi there
This is a question that is likely better suited for the forum supporting PDF reader. However, I seem to recall seeing something a year or four back that said this was a preference for each user. If that still holds true today, it would mean that you really have no control over it from the authoring end and machine A might open it and see it in the reader as you want, while machine B might open it and see it in the browser.
Hopefully others will share more light on this. Until then, I'd recommend using Google to search for opening PDFs from browser links.
Cheers... Rick

All pdf's open with Adobe Reader 4

I have Acrobat 7 installed and every time I open a pdf document from IE6 it opens with Reader 4, but if I open Adobe Acrobat 7 first, all pdf's open correctly.

Adobe don't recommend having more than one Acrobat and/or Reader
installed. This is the sort of thing that happens, but if you want
both you have the solution: open the one you want to do the work,
before starting.

How to disable Display PDF in Browser in Adobe Reader XI?

I am having troubles with opening a report in PDF form from a web browser, and I'm trying to figure out how to disable opening a PDF in a browser in Reader XI. I tried disabling "Open in Read Mode" and "Allow Fast Web View" both individually and seperately, and none of those combinations did the trick.
Any suggestions/help are appreciated. Thanks.

Hello Lloyd6770
Try these steps. ( I'm using Windows 7 x64 Ultimate, Internet Explorer 9, and Adobe XI )
1. Open Adobe XI
2. Click Edit
3. Click Accessibility
4. Click Setup Assistant
5. Click top radio button 'Set Options for Screen Readers'
6. Click Next
7. Do not change options on Screen 2 of 4, Click Next
8. Do not change options on Screen 3 of 4, Click Next
9. On screen 4 of 4, remove the check mark on ' Display PDF documents in the web browser '
NOTE: I checked Internet Explorer 9 / Tools / Manage add-ons and Adobe PDF Link Helper is still enabled in Internet Explorer 9.
PDF's will open in Adobe XI as you preferred and not in your brower.
Cheers!

I hate this, now all pdf documents open with Adobe reader x

Until recently all pdf documents opened nicely with Adobe Acrobat which was installed with the creative suite CS5. Recently I had to update the Acrobat plugin for Firefox and I don't know what exactly was installed but somehow I ended up with Adobe Reader x on my computer and now when I open pdf documents from my hard drive they all open with an Adobe reader which I hate. How that reader managed to install and change my experience without me noticing? Now I have to change file associations. Do I need this reader and what is it for when I have a full version of Acrobat?
I will greatly appreciate your help.

Unfortunately, once Reader is installed, uninstalling it will require you to repair your Acrobat installation. You should be able to right click on a PDF and select Open With and set Acrobat as the default. Also, be sure that Reader is not part of the startup of Windows (you can use Start>Run>msconfig to check that) and also open current tasks (ctrl-alt-del) and be sure AcroRd32 or similar file is not running in the background. Be aware that AcroTray is part of Acrobat and is needed for PDF creation.

PDF files opens in Adobe Reader 9 but not Adobe Acrobat Pro 9

After one of my users digitally signs a PDF file, and saves it, he cannot open it again.
He gets either a reference memory error or a Font Capture error.
I can open the same PDF file with Adobe Reader 9 and Adobe Acrobat Pro 8.
If I take the same file to a system with Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 - same error on the same file.
Happens to my administrator account as well.
Acrobat Pro 9 version: 9.4.1
Adobe Reader version: 9.4.1
Acrobat Pro 8 version: 8.2.5
Windows XP SP3
IE 7
Acrobat Pro 9 has been completely uninstalled, the system rebooted, and the software reinstalled.
Customer's profile has been rebuilt.

So the option was already checked when opened the document. I went ahead and unchecked, closed, reopened just to test and it's still not displaying correctly.
In response to Bill@VT. The image is on top of a white background so I can't tell if there is space there or not, it's just all white.
She showed me another document that's doing something similar today. This time the pdf was done with a green background and now the background shows as white. It was created the same way with Indesign and it shows fine in Reader and the Windows preview pane just not Acrobat. I'm trying to get the user to find the installation media so I can remove and reinstall, but I'm not sure if she will be able to find it.

PDF not opening in Adobe Reader using openWithDefaultApplication

Hello all,
I'm having a huge problem.
I've developed an application that opens pdf files from the desktop using openWithDefaultApplication().
It works great on my development PC which has Acrobat Pro.
The files open in Acrobat Pro flawlessly.
It DOES NOT work on other PCs that only have Adobe Reader.
Someone please help!!
Does anyone know why my application won't open pdf files using Adobe Reader?
All tested PCs are running Windows 7 and Air 4.0.
I've tried with both Adobe Reader X and XI.
Thank you in advance,
Mr12.

Update:
My stupidity. Changed a path and still had the old folder on development computers so all appeared fine. That was the issue.

Can Adobe Standard PDFs be opened in Adobe Reader?

I need to create a PDF where I can lock some areas of it and leave other areas open for others in our company to complete. What is the most basic Adobe that I can do this with - is it Standard?
Also if I have Adobe Standard can people with Adobe Reader open it? Can they edit it? (I am thinking not).
I can probably get the Standard software approved for myself as one person but thinking it would be too expensive for everyone else to get it as well.
Help! Is there an easy way to get my result???

What you seem to be describing is a "fillable" PDF that people can type on and fill in Adobe Reader - but not necessarily save, be sure you understand this limitation!!
"if I have Adobe Standard can people with Adobe Reader open it?" I have absolutely no idea what you mean by this, sorry.
