Adobe Acrobat Language Settings

We've been using LiveCycle to create forms that are 508 Compliant and have found a major issue with creating a document in LiveCycle and saving it as a PDF. When brought into Acrobat there are several options that have been lost in the Form Properties menu. Under the advanced tab the Reading Options Language has been grayed out and has no value. Actually, everything in the Advanced tab has been grayed out with no values present. This is a problem because this effects how the Screen Reader interacts with the PDF.
I've been in touch with Adobe and JAWS (the screen reader) and neither of them have noticed this issue, though they both agree it is not good. Is there anyone with any sort of solution to this problem; maybe a third party software that rights this wrong or a way around it? And does anybody have an idea of what would cause this? Is there a known problem with integration between LiveCycle and Acrobat?

Which LiveCycle product do you use?

  • Default Locale won't carry over to Adobe Acrobat Language Property

    Repost from http://forums.adobe.com/thread/340914 . I have the same problem and have searched everywhere.  Any suggestions?
    In LiveCycle Designer ES, you can set the default "Form locale" under "Defaults" on the File Properties page.  This is essentially the default language for the form.  The problem comes when you generate a pdf from the form.  Regardless of this setting, if you view the Advanced tab under the pdf's document properties, the field "Language" under Reading Options is blank, and greyed out - you cannot change it.  This is the field Adobe uses to check for accessibility- if it is blank it gives an error message upon an accessibility check reading "the form lacks a language specification".  I have searched all over this forum and all over the web trying to figure out how to correct this with no luck.

    Hi LBarton,
    Have solved this issue? I have exactly same issue with PDF generated using Livecycle Designer ES2. Adobe documentation says following:
    In LiveCycle Designer, setting the primary language is accomplished by setting the Locale property of
    the form and the Locale property for the top-level subform. To identify changes to the primary
    language, change the Locale property for any object that uses a language other than the form’s
    language.
    To set the Locale property of a form:
    1. Choose File > Form Properties and select the Default tab
    2. Select the appropriate language for the Form Locale (see Figure 17)
    3. Click OK
    But this doesn't work. Let me know your experience.
    Thanks.

  • How can i install Adobe Acrobat 11 in german language

    Hello,
    a simple question.
    how can i install Adobe Acrobat XI Prof. in german language?
    I have the donwload option for german and this will download the AcrobatPro_11_Web_WWMUI.exe.
      --> Acrobat Professional
    11.0
    German
    Windows
    Acrobat Professional 11.0 WIN ESD D
    When i start the installation with this donwloaded file i have only Enlgish as an language option.

    Hi Sukrit,
    thanks, but that doesn't fixed my problem.
    Now i have a language selection in the setup process. i select German, the setup/installation windows are in German.
    after installation the application is in English.
    i can't change the language in the preferences. there is only English. the option "Choose at application startup" will be ignored. also when i start the application as administrator
    It is possible that our company license key is language specific?
    i try a normal installation with key and one as trail version. the trial version is in German.
    i see this language setup option only if i select trial version during the installation.
    As information, the OS is Windows 7 Ent x64 English and the regional / location settings is Germany.

    Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 Extended has been installed in German on my machine, is there a way like in most software to switch to the English language though some options?

    In Acrobat Preferences, look under the section called (in English) "International" for "Application language".
    There might, or might not, be other languages available.

  • Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard Transfer to new Language

    I Purchased Adobe Acrobat 8 online and when I received it the media was in the wrong language, can I transfer the license over to the correct language?

    Did you uninstall it on the old laptop, or at least deactivate it? It sounds like you do not have any licenses left. It may be that Adobe can help you if you registered. I am not too familiar with the process, but that is what it sounds like.

  • Is it possible to change the settings in AR Properties Advanced tab with Adobe Acrobat XI?

    I noticed when I went to print a PDF double sided, that despite the following the guidelines from Adobe on this process, it still printed single sided.  I checked the properties of the PDF itself and on the Advanced tab, the DuplexMode was set to Simplex and was greyed out.
    Is it possible to change the settings in that tab with Adobe Acrobat XI?
    Regards
    Sharon

    Dear Sara
    Thank you for your reply.
    I have two printers, both support automatic duplexing.  Any PDF we receive
    or create we are unable to print double sided on our mac mini¹s.  I didn¹t
    make it clear in my question that we were fine on Windows XP, but, having
    recently changed to Mac have encountered this frustrating problem.
    I did a lot of research prior to recording the question and it appears I am
    not the only one who has come across this problem, and I have followed the
    guidelines that Adobe promote on their website to be able to print double
    sided, which doesn¹t work on the mac mini Osx Mavericks.
    Because the Properties, Advanced tab has ³Print Dialog Presets² that are set
    to simplex  and greyed out I took that to mean that no matter what printer
    settings I make, and I think I¹ve gone through all that I can, the pdf will
    not print double sided on Mac but will on XP.
    Sorry this isn¹t the reply you must have been hoping for and look forward to
    receiving further advice in regard to this matter.
    Regards
    Sharon

  • Adobe acrobat pro extended 9 language issues

    Hi!
    Is there any conflicts/obstacles that may arise using an English version of this software for documents or purposes in other languages or does it support other languages?
    If not, is there any way that I can convert an English language version of Adobe Acrobat Pro extended 9 to Swedish language?
    The reason I ask is that I'm considering buying a used copy of Acrobat pro extended 9, but before doing so I need to know if I would be better off buying a dedicated Swedish version of this software.
    Thanks in advance
    Anders

    Thanks AbhigyanModi!
    What I would like to do with acrobat pro extended 9 is for instance to convert a two-column glossary into Excel keeping the table format. Not sure if using English version will affect the text in the Swedish translation column or not. I've used Acrobat (Swedish version) to a minor extent at work so I'm familiar with some of its benefits, such as the "Copy as table" function.
    I think ibuying this software straight from retail is quite pricey for my needs and that's why I considered buying a used English version of Acrobat Pro extended. But I'm not sure it's worth buying an English version if it will limit the useability for my needs.
    Cheers!

  • Migrating settings from Adobe Acrobat X to Adobe Acrobat XI

    Hi,
    Due to the deployment of Office 365 I need to upgrade 300+ people from Adobe Acrobat X to Adobe Acrobat XI.
    Most of these users sign documents using digital signatures and therefore have a Digital ID and one or more custom Signature Appearances.
    After upgrading to Adobe Acrobat XI, the Digital ID and Signature Appearances settings aren't migrated from Adobe Acrobat X.
    Does anyone know whether it is possible to migrate the setting during the installation, or programmably after the installation completes?
    Thanks,
    Anne.

    Hi Sukrit,
    Thanks for taking the time to provide some advice, it is much appreciated.
    Unfortunately the link you provided doesn't explain how to export/import the security settings during the installation of a new version of Adobe or programmably after the installation completes.
    Regards,
    Anne
