Acrobat 6 filled form fields show up empty in Acrobat X

I've been using Acrobat 6 to create fillable forms some time back and now I'm having some issues trying to correct some fields they are showing up empty in Acrobat X. Is there a way to still view or edit my saved Acrobat 6 filled forms in Acrobat X?
Any help would be appreciated

  • How can I pass a variable to a form to pre-fill form fields on load?

    Hi all,
    I am developing a Windows Form Applicaiton in C# to register new users and walk them through a signup process.The application does a lot of other things as well. This part of it collects their personal information and saves the data to the database. Part of the process requires the user to complete a pdf form (W-4 tax form). I would like to pre-populate as many form fields as possible for them when the pdf launches, and not have them enter anything to get their data to prefill the form fields.
    My issue is I can't figure out how to get the pdf to know who is loading the form so I can do the SQL select and populate the form fields. I need to do a select * from Table where UniqueID="xxxxx" but how can I get the form to know on load what "xxxxx" is so it grabs the users personal info from the database?
    I have searched high and low and found nothing on how to do this without doing some hoakey hack outside of the application or pdf doc.
    I am creating/editing the form in LiveCycle Designer 8 and am loading the form for use by the user in acrobat 9.
    Any help,ideas, or nudging in the right direction would be much appreciated!

    I found this solution:
    REPORT YRT_TEST4.
    data: r_range type range of matnr.
    perform test changing r_range.
    *& Form test
    form test changing p_r_range like r_range.
    endform. " test

  • Safari pre-fills form fields like email addresses, how do I get it to stop?

    On certain Safari form fields my computer fills in the rest of a word I recently typed if I type the first letter, but I want to either get it to stop doing that or also learn how to clear that history every once and a while - how do I do that?

    Open Safari's Preferences and click on the AutoFill icon. Make sure all three options are unchecked. If they were checked, unchecking them should fix your problem. Let us know what happens.
    To clear a form while keeping AutoFill activated, click on the Edit button beside the appropriate AutoFill option, find the entry for that web site, and delete it. Editing the Address Book option will open your Address Book to your card for editing.

  • I can't read the text in my Acrobat pro fill forms fields

    I used to be able to render text with my acrobat pro, now the function is missing.  I can't read what people put in the fields I create in my forms if they don't fill it out with acrobat when they email them back.  This didn't used to be the case. One month ago I could render the text.  I had help from a tech at Adobe about a year ago on this and he changed my acrobat somehow so now I can't update it because it's been "modified".  How can I make my text visible?   Thanks!

  • Filling Form Fields

    I am creating a form in Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional and I want it to automatically fill in the rest of the field once the user types what they need in it. A good example of this is when you fill out a check and draw a line through the end of the pay field so that nothing can be added. I would like to use * or - to finish the field. Thanks.

  • Stop filling form field on android

    I'm running Firefox 35.0 on an Asus Transformer TF701T tablet. When I have on-line forms fill out, Firefox throws up a list of options to choose from to fill in the field. A example of this is a name field - Firefox will pop up a list of names to select from. I don't need ALL the names it lists. How can I delete the ones I don't want? I found out how to do it on Firefox for desktop, but not android. Please help as this is getting frustrating.

    As long as Firefox for Android is up to date we recently added the ability to swipe left or right to remove autocomplete entries. Though If sync is set up I believe that it will pull down the old data again.

  • How can I make the form fields show all inputted text?

    I am trying to create forms to collect customer data.  Currently, when I get them back from the customer, if they have typed in more words than the field box allows for, we have to scroll to read it all.  When we go to print the form, only the text that fits in the box will print.  Help!

    Your choices are:
    Make the field larger.
    Limit the number of characters that can be placed in a field.
    Export o Excel.
    Add a page with one large field with the same name as the problem field.
    Create a dynamic PDF using LiveCycle.

  • Firefox freezes during various operations (scrolling, filling form fields, clicking through the options menu, etc.)

    Almost any activity in Firefox is subject to brief freezing. The freeze lasts anywhere from (approx.) 1/2 second to 3 seconds. I searched online and I came across an article stating the freezes may be due to Anti-Virus software. The work-around presented was to set browser.sessionstore.enabled to false. The idea is Firefox does not attempt to write to a file, and so my AV software doesn't waste time checking if the access is valid. The change had some positive effect. The freezes now occur less often.
    However, the freezes still occur every few seconds, still to the point of major annoyance. So what I did was run Process Monitor while Firefox was running to see if the freezes coincided with file accesses. Indeed they do.
    I would like to know if I can change a setting which will cause Firefox to not access these files (or files like these) so often:
    firefox.exe QueryOpen C:\WINDOWS\system32\msimtf.dll
    firefox.exe ReadFile C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\k33hi6th.default\Cache\_CACHE_001_
    firefox.exe LockFile C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\k33hi6th.default\content-prefs.sqlite

    firefox.exe WriteFile C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\k33hi6th.default\cookies.sqlite-journal
    There are hundreds of such accesses over just tens of seconds. These files are accessed while I'm e.g. scrolling down the page. I could understand if they were accessed while loading or drawing the page, but again this is occurring while I'm merely scrolling down the page and typing in this very text box!

  • Saving form field data with Adobe Reader and Java script.

    We would like to create some customized PDF documents with pre filled form  fields for our customers. The documents will also have extended Java script  functionality to check some entered data and to save the form data to a local  disk.
    Our customers will need to click on their personalized link on our web page  and then download a pdf document with personal pre filled form fields  specifically for that customer.  From our site the PDF file will be dynamically  created and partly filled out with our web application. (The application uses an  external PDF library for the pdf creation).
    They would then need to be able to edit the form fields and save/export  them as a pdf whilst offline.
    The saving/exporting of the data should be implemented by the extended Java  Script functionality (http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/js_developer_guide.pdf). Once the data has been edited they will send the pdf file directly back to  us.
    The issue we have is with regarded to teh EULA for Acrobat Reader. If we  create those documents with an external application is the user allowed to open  those PDF files with his Adobe Reader without breaking the Adobe Reader  Restrictions in the EULA for the Reader?  (http://www.adobe.com/products/eulas/pdfs/Reader_Player_AIR_WWEULA-Combined-20080204_1313.pdf, chapter 3.2 Adobe Reader  Restrictions)

    Hello,
    the problem which I have pertains only to the Adobe Reader. Because
    our user will use Adobe Reader to open our pdf documents but it looks
    like that the EULA for the Reader doesn't allow the user to open pdf
    files which have the extended option to save data out of the form
    fields unless!! this feature was created by an adobe product. But I
    created the pdf file not with Adobe. So I don't want our user be punished...
    It is actually a question of the law? departement of Adobe. But there
    is no Forum for that
    Or could you please forward my forum question to somebody of this department.
    I don't want to publish a product where the user breaches the EULA
    every time they are opening it
    Regards
    Niels

    I have been creating forms in InDesign and pulling into Acrobat XI Pro to do form fields. My client would like to fill in the PDF form using Reader, save under a different name locally on their device, and redistribute. The problem I have is that, sometimes, they want to redistribute the form as Read Only. I know how to flatten the form on a mobile device, but uncertain how they can do that with a PC or Mac using Adobe Reader. I looked at FormsCentral thinking there might be a solution going that route, but don't believe there is. Any advice?

    FormsCentral won't help with flattening a form. You could set up the form in Acrobat so that the fields are set to read-only, using JavaScript. Not quite the same as flattening but it's the best Reader can do.
    Note that when Reader is used to e-sign a document, it gets flattened, but this won't be possible if you need to Reader-enable the form and under certain other conditions.

    What version of Reader are they using, exactly? And are you sure they're
    using Reader itself and not opening the file inside a browser window, for
    example?
