Acrobat X Pro Form Edit option greyed out

Acrobat X Professional running on Win7 32bit.
We are converting a word document into PDF with Acrobat, however after the file is converted the option to Edit Form is greyed out.
The same word document can be converted on other PCs with Adobe X Pro, where the Form Editing tools are available to use.

Do you see other Editing options like Distribute Forms, create etc? Are they all greyed out?
If that is the case- Look for Form (AcroForm.api) under Help->Adobe Acrobat Plug-ins. Is that available?
Check the conversion settings under Preferences-> Convert to PDF-> Select MS word from the list. Look if there is any security set.

  • SharePoint 2013: Infopath browser form "get form from" option greyed out

    In a web part page, I was able to add an app/list web part and an InfoPath web part, where the latter is setup with a "Get Form From" data connection with the former.
    Now I was trying to do the same within the edit page of the tasks list, as I was aiming to allow the user to edit the item related to the task and to approve the task from the same page. I can add the two web parts. However, the "Get Form From"
    data connection is not available in this case. What do I need to do to make it so?
    Thanks.

    Hi Ahmed,
    Please go to task list page and click customize form, then publish it in the InfoPath form designer.
    Now add a new page in SharePoint site, insert task list web part, then insert an InfoPath form web part. Click the triangle on the top right corner > Edit web part > Connections > Get form from, see if you could select task now.

    I have had to erase my disk since then with trouble with Apple Store not recognising my machine and the reload from Time Machine has given complications . Can you please cancel my trial and return my Trial money.

    If you paid for what you used then it was not a trial.

  • Compatibility with Acrobat 9 Pro Chinese Edition

    Hi all,
    A client is having problems opening a PDF with Adobe acrobat 9 Pro (Chinese Edition).  When he opens the PDF, there is an alert with chinese characters, and the PDF looks all scrambled. 
    It seems as if he is lacking the font KMACEC + Times-Bold? 
    As a temporary fix I converted the PDF to Word but as we know the layout does not stay the same.  I'd like to be able to provide the PDF to him so he can view it, and I would really appreciate if anyone could help me out with this.
    Thanks!

    I got the error msg translated:
    Cannot read input data, some characters cannot be showed/printed.
    I ran preflight and embedded the fonts and I'm hoping that fixes the problem.  I haev no way of testing this.  Does anyone know if I did the right thing or is there something else I should do?

  • No Sound; All options greyed out

    Output options for sound are greyed in Preferences and the desktop sound icon. In the Audio MIDI Setup window, the default output says Built-in Output and the System Output also says Built-in Output. No other options available for either.
    Just below halfway down there is Audio Input, which has a bunch of info on the left, but on the right where it says Audio Output, there is just a greyed out message that says Output is Not Supported.
    I also tried the option/apple/p/r, got the three chimes, but sound is still greyed out.
    Any gurus out there who can tell me what simple thing I did to cause this, or is it a hardware/sofware bug?

    it doesn't matter if you've used the ports or not.. there is a sensor inside the audio ports that will automatically switch your audio in and/or out into digital mode if it trips and then 'thinks' there's a digital cable connected. basically, if you open your sound control panel and display the output pane and it says 'digital out', and the volume control (and everything else) is greyed out, and it says something about this device not having volume control... then this is exactly the situation where the port sensor has clicked on to digital and is staying there. unfortunately, the sensor seems to be quite fragile and there are plenty of users that are suddenly wondering why they have no sound, and why the sound ouput only says digital and the options are greyed out. it would be at least a comfort to be able to say that this only can happen if you've been plugging things into the port (such as headphones), but I've heard of this happening to people regardless.
    anyway, look for the signs I mentioned: the digital output option being the only available choice in the sound control panel, with options greyed out. and also a red light coming out of the port. if this is happening to you, then you need to get the machine fixed cos that sensor is jammed.

  • MPB Rendering option greyed out - Win7 k5000

    System: Win 7/64; CPU E5-2690 X 2; 64Gb RAM; PP CS6 6.0.5; Quadro K5000 GPU.
    Project - Project Settings - General - rendering option greyed out. I've carefully seached the forums, tried various suggestions, but still cannot get to select the drop down box.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks

    Andrew, thanks very much.
    Yes - you were correct; while I checked the cuda support txt file, I 'assumed' that 'quadro 5000' would be correct. I edited the file, saved it back to its location, and now have the drop down option working.
    Really appreciate,

  • I bought Adobe Acrobat XI Pro Subscription Edition (one-year) but not able to edit any PDF. Please advise

    I bought Adobe® Acrobat® XI Pro Subscription Edition (one-year) but not able to edit any PDF. Please advise

    I went through the tutorial and the problem is when I click on "Tools" the edit option does not come. Only "Export", "Create" or "Send" pdfs.
    I think must be a technical problem.

  • Select option greyed out for fields of custom DataSource (rso2, rsa6)

    Hi
    Why are several fields, in my custom DataSource (created in rso2) not available for select?
    I do not think this is a permission issue, since several fields are selectable, but not all fields.
    It is not the data type, since I see other custom DataSources that have the same data type, and it is selectable as a select option.
    This is not a DataSource that was provided by SAP, it is completely custom, and uses a custom data definition (defined as a structure via se11), and a custom function.
    I have read the responses to similar questions, but have not found an answer that explains how to make the field selectable for select.
    What determines which fields can be selected for selection, and which fields have this option greyed out (not selectable)?
    I have come across multiple answers, for similar questions, that suggest an abap program to directly update table roosfield.
    Is this safe?
    IF I choose this route will I need to run the update program on production, or will the change it makes to my dataSource transport with my transport?
    (I can test this).
    What I most need to know is If this suggestion is safe, or if it has side effects?
    Thank you

    Hi Eileen,
    In Least case to enable the selection for the fields with the below program:
    Below code is for your reference which will use to unhide objects in RSO2 or RSA6 for Data source( in code for BELNR, KUNNR, VBELN, BUDAT fields are unhiding for 0fi_ar_4 data source selection option) . Still need any clarifications let me know.
    SE38: Create a program for ref below code.
    REPORT ZNP_SELE_DS.
    tables: ROOSFIELD.
    UPDATE ROOSFIELD SET SELECTION = 'P'
    WHERE OLTPSOURCE = '0FI_AR_4' AND   OBJVERS = 'A' AND FIELD = 'BELNR'.
    UPDATE ROOSFIELD SET SELECTION = 'P'
    WHERE OLTPSOURCE = '0FI_AR_4' AND OBJVERS = 'A' AND FIELD = 'KUNNR'.
    UPDATE ROOSFIELD SET SELECTION = 'P'
    WHERE OLTPSOURCE = '0FI_AR_4' AND OBJVERS = 'A' AND FIELD = 'VBELN'.
    UPDATE ROOSFIELD SET SELECTION = 'P'
    WHERE OLTPSOURCE = '0FI_AR_4' AND OBJVERS = 'A' AND FIELD = 'BUDAT'.

  • In adobe Acrobat X pro, in edit--preferences-identity, it introduces my name which then is on all documents. I want my name to be removed. What do I have to do?

    In adobe Acrobat X pro, in edit--preferences-identity, it introduces my name which then is on all documents. I want my name to be removed. What do I have to do?

    Is this in the signature appearance? If so you can customize signature appearance so that it contains only items that you want. In Acrobat X you do that in Edit->Preferences->Security, "New" in the "Appearances" section.

  • When OpenGL stopped working (option greyed out)

    I discovered a weird bug in Photoshop 12.1 x64 with nVidia graphic cards and what´s causing it:
    Problem (on all off my PCs):   OpenGL support in prefs / performance is greyed out, no shadow below open documents visible ( == OpenGL not working).  After deleting prefs.psp and restarting (as the www says), OpenGL support was working again, on next restart: no support - option greyed out again.
    Solution: if deleting the prefs file or the whole prefs folder don´t work, check if you have a custom workspace with the brush floating panel open.
    If so, close it and remvoe it from workspace, restart PS and.... OpenGL support is working again!
    I could reproduce this bug on all of my PCs, no matter what type of GFXcard and driver version is installed.
    Maybe that bug occurs only with Win7 x64, PS 12.1 x64 and nVidia cards, but removing the brush panel solved it on every machine!!
    I´ve opened a support ticket and provided Adobe with screenshots of the working and not-working states... maybe they can fix this with an update!
    This are my system specs for the tested machines:
    workstation 1:
    Intel i7 980X HexaCore (with SMT)
    ASUSP6T7 WS Supercomputer
    6 x 4GB DDR3 triple channel
    nVidia Quadro CX
    3x WD SATAII HDDs
    dual monitor
    Wacom Intuos4 XL
    3Dconnexion SpaceExplorer
    contour Shuttle Pro2
    workstation 2:
    Intel i7 975 Extreme Quadcore (with SMT)
    ASUS P6T Deluxe V2
    6 x 2 GB DDR3 triple channel
    nVidia GTX 580
    2x WD SATA HDD
    both systems running on:
    Windows 7 x64
    Mastercollection CS5.5
    latest updates for OS, CS5.5 and GFX drivers...
    Maybe this threat helps .... ;-)

    I did heavy testing the last days including systems at my home and at a friends office.
    In fact, I can´t tell, what´s causing this, but it seems to depent on a certain type of installation. But first the tested systems:
    nVidia GTX480 SLI, Win 7 x64, CS5.5 - working
    nVidia GTX580 Win7, CS5 - working
    ATI HD4870x2, Win7 x64, CS5 - working
    nVidia GTX580, Win 7 x64, CS5.5 (update from CS4 ->CS5 -> CS5.5) - not working
    nVidia GT240M, Win7 x64, CS5.5 - working
    ATI X1900XT - XP SP3 x64, CS5 - working
    nVidia QuadroCX, Win 7 x64, CS5.5 (update from CS4 ->CS5 -> CS5.5) - not working
    ATI HD4390, XP x64 SP3, CS5.5 (update from CS4 ->CS5 -> CS5.5) - not working
    nVidia GTX480, Win 7 x64, CS5.5 - working
    On each system I installed the latest driver & updates, rebooted it and followed the same procedure:
    1 - removed (==renamed) prefs folder
    2 - start PS
    3 - open prefs / performace
    4 - config OpenGL for "Advanced"
    5 - closing prefs and restarting PS
    6 - checking OpenGL when active: pt7
    7 - Open menu "Window" and and select "Brush" (or press F5)
    8 - docking Brush-panel from original position to the tools-panel on the left
    9 - saving workspace as "BrushTest"
    10 - restarting PS
    11 checking OpenGL
    Since you have all older Versions still installed when you update i.e from CS4 to CS5 I tried this with every installed version.
    On my two office WS I have CS4, 5 and 5.5.
    After trying this with the GTX580 with this results: CS4 working, CS5 working, CS5.5 not working - I today started PS 12.1 for working and saw that tiny shadow below the document - WITH the brush panel open!!
    Checked it and now its working proper. I have no clue what has changed over night but it did it...
    My primary WS with the Quadro card still refuses to actived OpenGL with the opend brush-panel, no matter what I try.... maybe I gonna deinstall that CS4 to 5.5 mess and get me another license for the full CS5.5 instead of the update from the update...

  • How can I best analyze data that were collected in an Acrobat XI Pro form in a variety of ways?

    I would like to analyze the data that I collect using an Acrobat XI Pro form using a variety of numerical and statistical methods.  I assume the first step would be to export the data to a program such as Microsoft Excel.  I am wondering if there are any free or inexpensive programs I can use to perform the analyses.  i have SPSS, but I am looking for something free or inexpensive that my colleagues can use.

    Yes, you can export the data as a tab-delimited text file, which you can then process in Excel.
    What you do after that point is not really related to the subject of this forum.

  • Internet Options greyed out in Internet Explorer 9 because of GPO settings in Windows 2008 AD

    Internet Options greyed out in Internet Explorer 9 because of GPO settings in Windows 2008 AD.
    I am trying to find out what GPO setting is causing this so I can change I.E. settings at a desktop running Windows 7.
    A GPO has I.E. locked down so settings are greyed out for Intranet settings so I can't change Intranet settings.
    How do I enable so I can save changes with a GPO?

    Classic GPO using Administrative Templates, is designed to do exactly that (disable the UI).
    Previously, you could use IEM in preference mode.
    Now, you'll need to use GPP, but there are a couple of limitations.
    Check the IE10 IEAK documentation (it's useful for understanding what you can do with GPP)

  • Unable to select fields in Acrobat XI Pro forms tools/editor to calculate

    First, in Acrobat XI Pro forms editor when attempting to calculate fields, I am unable to select the fields (click) to calculate.  I can only select all or deselect all.
    Also, if my simple spreadsheet formula is:
    =IF(Value01>0,SUM(Value01*(Value02-Value03)),"")
    Is there a straight forward way to translate that formula into a functioning calculating script in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro Forms tools (or FormsCentral)?
    Thanks for any input.

    Regarding the calculation, it can be done with a script. This is a good place to start learning about such scripts in Acrobat:
