Why can't I create Fillable PDF Forms using Adobe Acrobat X Pro and upload to Dreamweaver?

I can create fillable PDF Forms using Adobe Acrobat X Pro. I can email them to someone using Adobe Reader (free) and they can fill them, save and email to me. But when I upload the form to Dreamweaver CS5, the form is not fillable. And yes, I saved it as a Reader Extended PDF-Enable Additional Features.

I see no reason for this form to fail in Reader. Some questions for you.
1. On the system with Adobe Reader, what is the system and the version of Adobe Reader?
2. Are you viewing the PDF in a browser on the system with Reader, or in an Adobe Reader window?
3. If it's a browser
(a) what is the browser
(b) if you download the file instead, and open directly in Reader, what happens?

  • I've created a PDF form using Adobe acrobat. I created the forms from a PDF that I made using pages

    I've created a PDF form using Adobe acrobat. I created the forms from a PDF that I made using pages and word on Mac running Mountain lion. How do I allow the user of the form to insert JPEG files when filling out the form and how do I allow the user to add more fields or groups of fields as needed.

    The type of form yo're describing is possible if you create it in LiveCycle Designer. It may also be possible in Acrobat, but there are certain restrictions. The type of form is known as a dynamic XFA form. LiveCycle Designer is not available on the Mac, so you'd have to install the software on a Windows machine and learn how to create this type of form. The LiveCycle Designer forum here is a good resource for getting more help.
    Reader 11 now supports creating new pages using templates with a form that you create in Acrobat (Acroform). This requires some JavaScript programming. It also adds support for using a button to display a page from a PDF, which can be an image or anything else a PDF can be. So the user would click a button, be prompted to import a page from an existing PDF, and the button (or a different button) displays it as its icon. This would require the user to convert the image to PDF first, which is relatively easy these days (e.g., using Preview on the Mac, or Word on Mac/Windows). This too involves a bit of JavaScript programming, but it's very simple and straightforward.

    When opening a PDF Portfolio, created using Adobe Acrobat XI Pro, in Sharepoint Foundation 2013 the pages are blank in the default Layout view but you can see the contents in File view. How do we correct that so the files appear in both views? Local IT stated it is an ADOBE problem.

  • Problems printing PDF's using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro

    During the last two weeks, I have been unable to print a PDF from my Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. They appear okay on the screen, but print as gibberish.
    After consulting the forums, one workaround suggested was to print as image. Tried it, also prints gibberish.
    Another suggestion to update my printer software, did it. Still prints as gibberish. My priner is an Epston Stylus Photo R220.
    I'm a writer, not a software technician. I am not using a bootleg copy of the program, but an educational version, so Adobe won't offer me any advice over the phone without payment.
    Anything else I could try before paying?

    I have same problem as described above, but not always.  Seems to depend on the web page I am trying to print to Adobe. One consistent culprit is Bank of America.  Looks okay until I print to Adobe Acrobat 9 or 10. Then it's gibberish.  i had to copy to Word and then print Word to Acrobat or printer.  
    . Various computers,
    . same problem with either Acrobat 9 or 10.
    . Not a problem printing to Acrobat from a Word or Excel or Outlook document
    . Only from certain websites and not the entire page, only the OCR part. The objects: logos, pictures are okay, only text is messed up.
    Definitely would like Adobe to fix this.

  • I Created a pdf form in Adobe Acrobat X.  Adobe Reader cannont print or save it?

    I work for a foodservice company with different locations.  Each location has Adobe Reader.  I created a pdf form for each site to fill out, save and print for postings ect...  They keep getting a printing error.  "The document could not be printed"  after that it says "No pages selected to print".  They also are not allowed to save the file???  I want them to be able to print and save copies.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    You need to disable that preference in the individual users versions on Reader, not your version of Acrobat.

  • How to delete checkbox in pdf form using adobe acrobat professional 6.

    I  am trying to modify a pdf form having a single layer. There are some checkboxes which i want to delete. I am using Adobe acrobat 6 professional. USing Advanced Editing tools -> Touchup Object Tool , i have try to delete the checkbox, it deletes all fields and tables in the form and there is only text left on the form. Any help would be appreciated. . Thanks@

    You do not use the "Object Tool" to edit forms. There should be a "Form" menu option and under this option you will have the opton "Edit form in Acrobat". This is the way one should edit/create a form in Acrobat.

  • Why can't I fill out pdf form using Reader on Android Devices?

  • I can not open a filled out pdf-form using Adobe Acrobat Pro X

    I have a form in Indesign CS 5.5 and made it fillable with Adobe Acrobat Pro X. I enabled the 'additional features' to make the document a 'Reader extended pdf'. Whoever I send the form now, can fill it out and save it in (the free version of) Adobe Reader.
    Problem is: when the recipients mail the filled out form back to me, I can not open the document. There is message that says: "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired."
    However, when I receive the filled-out file not by email (MS Outlook on a IMac) but on a USB-stick or something, I can manage to open the document the way it was filled out.
    I'm guessing something goes wrong in the mailing process...
    Can anyone help me please?
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the advice!
    I'm afraid though that the problem is situated with the provider of the sender (when I open the email with my hotmail or gmail-account, it' s the same problem).
    The idea of compressing the forms into zip-files is not very usefull because - i'm guessing - 90% of the recipients have never heard about a zip-file and are surely incapable of making one.
    Some other ideas?
    Thank you though!

  • Creating PDFs using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro and can only see the first 10 pages in PDF even when the page numbers on bottom state 10 of 13 (or any number greater than 10).

    PDFs create great, unless they should be over 10 pages and then it appears the data was converted to PDF by viewing the page numbers at the bottom of the PDF but you can only view the first 10 pages in the pdf file.

    Hi stephaniec0103,
    Could you please let me know what exact dot version of Acrobat 9 and OS you are using.
    Have you tried repairing Acrobat from the Help menu?
    Acrobat 9 is an older version and incompatible with new OS versions, so I would suggest you to try using Acrobat XI (latest version) and check for the same.
    You may download a 30-day free trial version of Acrobat from the below mentioned link:
    Download Adobe Acrobat free trial | Acrobat XI Professional
    Let me know how it goes.

  • Can I still create fill-in forms using Adobe when formcentral is retired?

    I have just purchased Adobe Acrobat Professional with a view to creating forms for our internal team to fill in.
    I am unsure whether this form creation is to be discontinued when Form Central is retired in July 2015?
    thanks

    <p>Read this article and go to chapter 2.3.2.</p>Inserts, Update and Delete orders are managed by a stored procedure. In the sample dialog, the Select is handled by the emp_pkg.emp_query() stored function:
      PROCEDURE emp_query(emp_data IN OUT emptab) IS
        ii NUMBER;
        CURSOR empselect IS
          SELECT empno, ename, job, sal, comm FROM emp
           ORDER BY ename ;
      BEGIN
        OPEN empselect;

          EXIT WHEN empselect%NOTFOUND;
          ii := ii + 1;
        END LOOP;
      END emp_query;In your case, all you have to do is th use your decrypt() function in the cursor definition:
        CURSOR empselect IS
          SELECT decrypt(empno), decrypt(ename), decrypt(job), decrypt(sal), comm FROM emp
           ORDER BY ename ;
    ...For Insert and Update events, use the crypt() function in the related stored procedures.
      PROCEDURE emp_insert2(t IN emptab) IS
      BEGIN
        FOR i IN t.first..t.last LOOP
         INSERT INTO emp (empno, ename, job, sal, comm)
         VALUES(crypt(t(i).empno), crypt(t(i).ename), crypt(t(i).job), crypt(t(i).sal, t(i).comm));
         END LOOP ;
      END emp_insert2;Idem for the Update procedure.

  • Help! I created a form using Adobe Acrobat X Pro

    I created a form with fields, then closed it for editing.  However, one of the fields is in the wrong font and I need to change it, as well as the order in which the fields are tabbed, but I cannot get Adobe to allow me to edit the form again.  I've tried 'save as' numerous times.  Please don't tell me I have to create the form from scratch again!

    Thanks. Not sure why that sometimes works and at other times not.  In X Pro it is really cumbersome - was far easier in Adobe Acrobat 8.

  • Unable to edit the forms in Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro and adobe pdf reader.

    Hai ,
        i am unable to edit pdf forms . on clicking on the form text field error message comes as "font capture" message heading and content as
    "C:\Windows\system32/ATMLIB.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error. Try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support."
    if pressed ok . aplication get closed
    i reinstalled all aplication with old versions but sill have the same error .please give  a solution . thank you.

    thank you for the suggestion, but I do not have a "Send Email" or "Submit" button available in my version. I have "Attach to email" option which automatically opens a new message in MS outlook (which I did not set up, it just started doing so automatically) without any further dialogue boxes or options.
    Also, this is only for regular PDF files, not forms.

  • How can I add a button to add multiple image in PDF from using adobe acrobat pro?

    I have to create a pdf form using Adobe Acrobat Pro X.
    In this form I want to add a button where I can add multiple images to the field.
    I have tried using javascript event.target.buttonImportIcon(); and successfully add an image, but when I want to add the 2nd image it automatically overwrites the previous one.
    Is there any way to solve this issue? I would like to have a form where I can add a lot of images in it. It is possible in word, but we really have to use adobe.
    Thanks

    Hi thanks for your answer.
    I can add multiple button, but if there are 10 images that I wan to add, then I have to create 10 buttons.
    Moreover, the pictures will be placed on top of each other and it means that you cannot see it clearly.
