Ability to edit a form created in Forms Central

When I open a form created in forms central in acrobat pro XI, how can I get permission to add a watermark?  The system says I do not have permission to make the change.  That makes sense, but can I save it in Forms Central with a password that would allow me to further edit it is Acrobat Pro XI?  Is there an alternative solution?

  • Merging pdfs with ability to edit a form

    When I merge two pdfs in Acrobat 8 then reopen them in Reader (which is the only software my client has to view/edit pdfs) I can no longer save the data typed into the forms--I can print the document as is with the information, but the pdf form needs to be filled out by a couple people. Does anyone know of a way I can merge two pdfs and still retain the ability to edit the form?

    Can't save edits. I was hoping I wouldn't have to go back in to enable reader rights (it's a client who would actually have to do it), but that's okay. Thanks for your help.

  • Removing the ability to edit a form once it has been submitted

    Good Day All;
    I am not sure if this has been asked before......
    Is there a way to turn off the ability to edit a form once it has been completed and submitted?
    Thanks all

    Thanks Malcolm... That is what I thought... I guess there is no way to do it unless LiveCycle Designer is installed....

  • Editing a Form Central PDF in Acrobat Pro

    I've created a multi-page form with F Central and need it to be editable in Acrobat Pro.  "Save a Copy" in Acrobat Pro does not remove the security and thusly the form cannot be edited.  Was I misled by Acrobat marketing and now I am stuck with a form that I can ONLY edit using Forms Central?   Can anyone help?

    I don't know if I was very clear.  I want the users to fill out a form and click a button when they are done.   Then I want the result of clicking the button to be for the form to print to Adobe PDF first followed by emailing to me.  Right now the way I set the button up (below), I receive the actual form via email. 
    "Actions" tab,
    "Mouse up,
        Execute a menu item
            File>Save as>PDF...
        Submit a form"
    I want a non editable printed/ refried version AKA "print to Adobe PDF" on the menu items sent to me instead of the actual form.  I have searched all over but can't find if this is possible.

  • How to edit a Forms Central form in PDF

    Using Adobe Acrobat XI which i normally use to create forms, I am able to open the Forms Central PDF that I created. However it says it is secured and I can't edit it.  Is there a way to create a PDF from Forms Central that isn't secured?  Any other solution?

  • Ability to edit a DVD created on other equipment.

    I have an old video my mother had made from 8mm film. I bought a RCA DVD Recorder/Player and copied the video to DVD. When I loaded the DVD into the Mac, it plays, but I can't figure out how to edit the video stream (lots of bouncing around and heads cut off). Is there a product out there that will allow you to edit a DVD that wasn't created in either iMovie or iDVD? I'm still planning on duping the videos, but sure would like to edit them down.
    Thanks in advance

    I downloaded the trial s/w and tried to convert the files, but I keep getting a message that the file format is unsupported. I tried to send a question to DVDxDV's webite, but it kept timing out and when you go to their forums, they want everything but your SSN. They don't need to know my birthday to provide support.
    The files I find on the DVD are VIDEO_RM, which contains VIDEO_RM.BUP/DAT & IFO fiels, as well as a ZRN_DISC.DAT file
    and
    VIDEO_TS, which contains: VIDEO_TS.BUP/.IFO/.VOB AND VTS010.BUP/.IFO &.VOB files.
    I don't need the audio files, just the video and I don't know enough about the tech specs for video to figure out what's happening.
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • Can I edit a form created in Adobe Designer/livecycle in Acrobat Pro. 8

    Hello
    I have a client that sends me PDF's created in LiveCycle.  IN the past I've used the following information to open these files.
    You can however create a workaround if you absolutely must edit an LCD form in Acrobat. If the form is not a Dynamic form, open the form in Acrobat and choose Document | Extract Pages. (You'll know if the form is not a dynamic form if the Extract Pages command is not grayed out). The extracted pages will not permit accessing the form objects in Acrobat. All scripts in the document are lost and naming conventions for field objects are bizarre. However, the form is editable.
    If you want to convert an LCD dynamic form to an editable Acrobat form, you need to use Acrobat 7 Pro. This won't work in Acrobat 8. In Acrobat 7 Pro choose File | Create PDF | From Web Page. Open the form in the Create PDF From Web Page dialog box. Again, all scripts are lost and field object names are bizarre, but you can edit the form in Acrobat 7 or 8 Pro.
    But these files must be saved as Dynamic pdf's. I have tried saving them as static forms but the Document | Extract Pages is still greyed out when I open in Professional?  What gives how can I get around this most annoying situation?  I need to get the extract pages from being greyed out?
    Thanks,
    Dan

    Acrobat 8 Professional includes LiveCycle Designer 8, so if the form was created with LiveCycle Designer 8 or older, the yes should have the option to edit the form. Acrobat 8 Professional under the menu option 'Forms' will have an option to open the form in LiveCycle Designer. If the form was created with a newer version, there could be some issues with newer features not available in version 8.

  • Need to edit a form created in Adobe Acrobat Pro X

    I created a form in Adobe Acrobat Pro X but now I can't edit the form questions, I know I'm missing something obvious but its driving me nuts right now.

    here is a link to the file:
    Wikisend: free file sharing service
    I want to be able to edit the following:
    I Squared R, LLC
    Meeting Attendance Form
    1-901-0001-00001 Revision 1
    and pretty much everything else... I created the file a while ago but I cant remember how to edit the file and I really don't want to have to redo everything again. As far as i can figure out the file isn't locked or anything. Any ideas?

  • I am unable to edit a form created with LiveCycle version 8.5 with LiveCycle Version ES1.

    I am trying to edit a form created with LiveCycle version 8.08.2073 (installed with Adobe Pro 8).  I am using LiveCycle version ES (installed with Adobe Pro 9).  I can open the fhe form, but the tools are greyed out.  It apears the file is locked for editing, but I cannot determine where/how to unlock it.

    You should try to start in safe mode which runs a file check. You hold the shift key down during a start up till there is a progress bar towards thr bottom of the screen. This start will take a longer time than normal. In safe mode try the functioins you are having problems with to see if there is an improvement. Some links below to read.

  • I have adobe xi pro, but i can´t edit a form create with adobe 8.0, the message is this form can´t be edit with adobe, use adobe livecycle designer. need I to buy another program?

    I have adobe xi pro, but i can´t edit a form created with adobe 8.0. The message is: this form can´t be edit with adobe, use adobe livecycle designer. need I to buy another program?

    If the form was created using LCD then it can only be edited there. This
    application used to be bundled with Acrobat Pro, but that's no longer the
    case. So if you want to edit this file then you need to purchase it, yes.

  • Need to edit a form that was created by someone else.

    Hello, I have to edit a form that was created by someone else. I made numerous changes to the text and repositioned a lot of the items, and it appeared fine on my computer. However, when I open it on my PC and other systems, the fonts are substituting and I'm getting strange characters where I changed the text. I tried embedding the fonts with the Preflight embed fonts, but it is still messed up. My client is anxious...not sure what else to check. Any help would be appreciated!

    You don't need to re-do the fields. If you create a new version of the PDF
    file just open the old one and use the Replace Pages command to insert the
    pages from the new version over the old ones. This will give you a new
    version of the file, with the existing form fields still in tact. Of
    course, you might need to adjust their location and/or size, but at least
    you won't have to start all over again...

    Looking to create editable PDF forms with drop downs and text boxes for use on a Mac computer and iPad. Which product do I need to purchase? Do not need anything fancy

    Basically you would need Acrobat. However, it is now also possible to create basic form fields using just the free Reader. In fact, I've been working on a tool that allows you to do it, so if you're interested in it please contact me privately.

  • Creating Editable PDF Form

    Hi all,
    Can anyone help here...
    I am trying to create a PDF document in Acrobat Pro 9 Extended, which is a form that can be filled in and saved by the end user. I have created the document in InDesign and am using Pro to add in the editable regions.
    Here is the PDF: www.leshooperfitness.com.au/pdf/exercise-meal.pdf
    I can open the file, add content to the form, re-save it and it retains all the info. However, I am having all sorts of problems with other people saving content to the file, sometimes it works, sometimes all the content is wiped clean and sometime the content is there, but you have to actually click on a text box before the content is displayed. The other people are sometimes on a Mac/iPad, but even when they use Adobe Reader they are able to save the info and sometime it stays saved on their machine until it is emailed to me and then it disappears. Other times they save it and when they go back to it, it has gone. But there doesn't seem to be a consistant pattern, it just doesn't seem like a very reliable way of saving info.
    Does anyone know what I could be doing wrong? Or, is there a more effective way of creating editable, interactive forms?
    Thanks

    The problem you seeing with the content not being displayed until the field has the focus is a well kown problem with PDF forms that have been filled and saved with the Preview application on the Mac. For more information, see: http://kb2.adobe.com/community/publishing/885/cpsid_88564.html
    So the Mac users (OSX) should use Adobe Reader, as opposed to Preview. Windows users may not be using a viewer as capable as Acrobat/Reader as well, so you mught want to check that also.
    The default PDF viewer on the iPad does not support interactive PDF forms, so you'll need to use a viewer that does. Adobe Reader for the iPad does not at the moment, and the best one that does is Readdle's PDF Expert.

  • How to use same form for Editing info and creating info.

    Hi all,
    Here my aim is to select the user from list and edit the user info. There is one more option to create the new user.
    Currently I am using two separate input forms one for Editing and one more creating new user.
    Can anyone tel me, how to use the same form for both editing and creating.
    Thanks,
    Ramesh Biradar

    Hi Ramesh,
    I'll make some assumptions about how you're going about this, and then give you a possible solution:
    I assume that you have a table with selection on one page. To edit an item, you wish to select it's radio button and click an edit button to take you to another page with the item filled in to edit it. To create a new item, you'd like to click a "new" button and go to the same page.
    If this is correct, here's the basic steps:
    1). Assuming you have both the list and edit pages already created, make sure you have a JSF navigation case defined going from the list page to the edit page. I'll call this navigation case "goToEditPage" for this discussion.
    2). To make the edit button, drag a command button from the component palette and drop it on the af:TableSelectOne (the column in your table containing the radio buttons for selection).
    3). Set the action property on this command button to "goToEditPage".
    4). Now, to make the create button, drag a command button from the component palette somewhere on the page. I like to put mine in a panelButtonBar inside the actions facet of an af:Page component.
    5). Now, for the Action property of this command button, bind it to a method in your page's backing bean. The code will look something like this:
    public String performNew()
        BindingContainer bindings = getBindings();
        OperationBinding operationBinding = bindings.getOperationBinding("Create");
        Object result = operationBinding.execute();
        if (!operationBinding.getErrors().isEmpty())
          return null;
        return "goToEditPage";
    }Hope this is helpful, Ramesh.
    Regards,
    John
