Adobe Acrobat XI vs Forms Central separate account

I have a forms central account for 6 months or more. I recently upgraded to Adobe Acrobat Pro XI. I am still paying monthly for the forms central account.
Do I still need the separate account? Please let me know.

You do not need a separate FormsCentral account.
You can logging to FormsCentral for Acrobat (desktop app installed with Acrobat XI) with your current FormsCentral account. You will need to keep your FormsCental account if you want to be able to keep distributing forms and collecting data. FormsCentral for Acrobat without a FormsCentral subscription can only generate PDF and cannot collect data.
Hope this helps.

  • I don't understand.  I use Google Docs to write letters & other forms, then convert them to PDFs using Adobe Acrobat.  If Forms Central closes, will I still be able to do this?

    I don't understand.  I use Google Docs to write letters & other forms, then convert them to PDFs using Adobe Acrobat.  If Forms Central closes, will I still be able to do this?

    Adobe also has Acrobat.com and there is DropBox.com. Adobe has also announced Adobe Document Cloud.
    Forms central provide a subscription service for users with Reader to create simple forms. Apparently this did not meet a majority of users and with the minimal price difference for Acrobat and free web storage the users were better served without it. I expect cloud services will continue to emerge until providers better and more fully understand the user requirements.

  • Is there Speech to Text Software Capabilities? .... for Adobe Acrobat PDF Fillable Forms - Mac

    Hi,
    I hope that someone can help me with this.....
    I create forms in InDesign and export to Adobe Acrobat PDF. I create a fillable version in Acrobat so my clients "field therapists" can fill the forms out utilizing their laptops and iPads when on location with client. The forms they fill out, most use the mac, and they are now requesting that the fillable PDF forms have the capability to render text when it is spoken. (Speech to Text) also if written with a stylus pen the want it to render the text in the fields (handwriting to text)
    I have researched and have found a company that has software that does this for mac, called dragon, but they said I need to test the software to see if it does what I need it to do with the acrobat pdf.
    Has anyone implemented this "speech to text" and "handwriting to text" in any of their Adobe Acrobat PDF fillable forms?
    If so, what did you find worked, or what did you find that did not work.
    All responses welcome, I am hopeful I can find software that will work with existing mac adobe acrobat fillable PDF forms so I dont have to change the manner in which I am creating my forms for this client.
    P.S. FYI, I am not looking for responses that are a response for 508 Compliant forms which is speaking the text, this I do for clients and this I know how to do, it is quite different from "Speech to Text"
    Thanks in advance for all responses.

    There really is nothing Adobe can do about how non-Adobe software functions. The PDF standard is no longer controlled by Adobe, it's controlled by ISO. Some PDF viewers choose to have no support for forms, some have pretty good support, and some (like Preview) are simply malevolent. There is a lot of non-Adobe software that creates bad PDFs, and a lot that doesn't have nearly the support of Acrobat/Reader. Again, this isn't a problem Adobe can solve.
    Regarding, allowing image formats with the buttonImportIcon method and Reader, I know a feature request has been submitted for this. Reader 11 is the first version since Reader 5 that supports this, so I have hope for the future. In the mean time, it's fairly easy nowadays to convert an image to PDF. Even Preview can do it.

    I purchased Adobe Acrobat Standard V11 on one user account on one pc.

    I understand this product comes with 2 licences but am hoping to retain the extra for another pc.

    My experience (limited) has been to expect it to be installed automatically for all users.
    What seems to be missing on the new user account?

  • Can I export or convert an existing FormsCentral form into an adobe acrobat pro fillable form?

    What is the best method for exporting or converting an existing FormsCentral form into an adobe acrobat pro fillable form?

    Good day in2psy,
    As FormsCentral is a web-based service that hosts the forms you create, you cannot download them and use them locally on your computer.
    Kind regards,

  • Is it possible to edit forms IN forms central that were created in Adobe, then uploaded to forms central?

    I would like to be able to edit forms that were previously created in Acrobat after uploading them to FormsCentral in the same way that I can edit a form which was created directly in forms central. Is this possible?

    No, all LCD forms can only be edited in LCD.
    And the second trial is probably not going to work, unless you install it
    on a different computer.
    The best way to salvage your form, in my experience, is to print it to the
    Adobe PDF printer, creating a new flat PDF file and then running the Form
    Detection Wizard in Acrobat on it and continuing from there. It probably
    won't do a perfect job, but it should recognize some of the fields.

  • Accidentally deleted Adobe Acrobat XI Pro from Creative Cloud account - how to reinstall?

    I have an Adobe Creative Cloud account and it will not allow me to reinstall Adobe Acrobat XI because it thinks it is updated. However, I accidentally uninstalled it, trying to prevent it from over-riding an older Adobe Acrobat install I had. I now need to reinstall it.
    How can I get the Adobe updated to recognize that Adobe Acrobat is not installed? I've had it recheck several times over the last 2 months.
    The Adobe site will not download it, even though I select the "download" button, nor will the Creative Cloud account installer.

    Shut down Acrobat and any Creative Cloud application before doing this procedure.
    1    Rename caps folder.
              a.  Using the Finder menu Go>Go to Folder.
              b.  In the "Go to Folder" window put the following path:  /Library/Application Support/Adobe/
              c.  Rename the folder named "caps" at this location to something else (i.e. OLD_caps):
    /Library/Application Support/Adobe/caps
    2    Install Acrobat from within the Creative Cloud application.
    3    Rename new caps folder.
              a.  Using the Finder menu Go>Go to Folder.
              b.  In the "Go to Folder" window put the following path:  /Library/Application Support/Adobe/
              c.  Rename the folder named "caps" at this location to something else (i.e. NEW_caps):
    /Library/Application Support/Adobe/caps
    4 Rename the OLD_caps folder back to "caps"
    5 Now you should be good.
    *Note:  The "caps" folder contains the files that the Creative Cloud application reads to show what IS and IS NOT installed.

  • Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro - Form Wizard isn't detecting form fields?

    Hi there,
    I've been scouring various forums, blogs, etc. to find an answer to my problem, and have yet to be successful.  Here it is:
    I've created a form in Illustrator CS5 using the rectangle shape tool to indicate form fields.  I need users to be able to enter information in each of the specified fields.  I've saved the file as a .PDF and have opened it into Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.  I then select "Start Form Wizard" from the Forms menu, and after making the appropriate selections it tells me: "No new form field annotations were detected." and then prompts me to the form editing page.  I've also tried simply selecting "Add or Edit Fields" from the Forms menu and the same thing happens - it isn't detecting any form fields.
    The only time the Form Wizard or Add or Edit Fields options work is if I use underlines instead of boxes as the form fields, but I'd really prefer to use the boxes since they lend themselves to the aesthetics of the document much better. 
    I'm new to converting Illustrator files into interactive .PDFs, so I'm not sure what I should be doing.  The background color of the document is grey and the boxes are white with no outline (I tried it with an outline around the boxes and it still didn't work).  Any advice would be much appreciated!  Thanks.
    Beth

    Hi Beth
    How big are  these fields? Are they for entering text or just check boxes?
    I have found that sometimes FormWizard is not compatible with some Quark files.
    Sounds like it might be easier for you to do the fields manually.
    First draw the field like you want it and set that as the default then you can choose to paste multiple fields.
    Also if you want to use a line for FormWizard you can make the background of the field white and cover the line with it.

  • Need help with Java Script to perform a calculation in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 form

    I have a form (test) that I am creating in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.
    I need help creating custom Java Script so I can get the desired answer.
    1) There are several questions in each group that require a numerical answer between 0-4
    2) There is a total field set up to sum the answers from all above questions
    3) The final "score" takes the answer from Step 2 above and divides by the total possible answer
    Any help on what Java Script I need to complete this would be greatly appreciated!
    I've attached a "spreadsheet" that shows it in more detail as well as what formulas I used in Excel to get the desired end result.
    Thanks in advance.

    Have you tried the "The field is the average of:"?

  • Individual, Creative cloud, single app, Adobe Acrobat Pro X1, Forms and Responses allowed

    Dear forum,
    Firstly many apologies if this is a stupid question or if it has been answered before, but I'm very new to using FormsCentral only in the past few days.
    I purchased an Individual Creative cloud, single app plan at £17.58 per month for only Adobe Acrobat Pro X1, I am able it seems allowed to create forms etc, however are there any responses per form limit for my subscription? when looking at the features for the Adobe Acrobat Pro X1 product it only says FormsCentral is included and does not suggest any limitations. However, I've seen other comments which suggest needing to upgrade, but I have not seen any messages asking me to. I would prefer to know the limitations now rather than doing an important project form and then suddenly see messages appear once 50, or so responses have arrived  ?
    Any help or guidance would be much appreciated.
    kind regards
    kevin

    Hi,
    You get a free subscription with FormsCentral with Acrobat Pro XI. You will only be able to create one form and collect 50 responses. To get more functionality, you'll need to upgrade to basic or plus plan. Please check out Pricing options - Free, Basic, and Plus options | Adobe FormsCentral.

  • Adobe Acrobat 7.0 form cant sign in Adobe Reader

    Hi, I'm using Adobe Acrobat Professional 7.0 and I am having trouble creating forms with signature fields that can be signed and saved with Adobe Reader. How can i allow Adobe Reader to sign the fields as well as use the typewrite tool

    Hi ,
    You will not be able to accomplish this because Acrobat 7 does not provide the functionality to allow users with Reader to be able to sign the documents.

  • Adobe [Acrobat] 9 distribute forms issue

    I'm trying to distribute forms through adobe [Acrobat] 9 and I can only send the form to people in my address book through Acrobat.com as an attachment, but not as a link. 
    However, I can send a link to the form to people not in my address book via Acrobat.com with no issues. I've also noticed when I add people in my address book to the list of recipients it says it can't resolve the address even though I specifically added it through the address book. We use office 365 and I'm using outlook 2007. Is there some known issue?
    [Edited by host for clarity]

    I'm using the retail upgrade version, currently on 9.3.0.  I had to upgrade from Acrobat 7 Pro when I got my new Win7 computer.
    One thougth... the more I investigate this problem, I can't help but wonder if I somehow turned off the screen that is supposed to come up when I click the Distribute Forms button.  I just ran through the 20-minute video at http://tv.adobe.com/watch/creative-suite-podcast-designers/acrobat-9-complete-forms-workfl ow and it reminded me of the wizard screen that is supposed to appear with the three options (use Acrobat.com, email, internal server).  I haven't seen it, which makes wonder if I checked the "always use this option" button and now I can undo it.  Every option that I've tried on the Forms menu immediately takes me to the form with the purple bar mentioned in my original post.
    Thanks,
    Kim.

  • Please Help me! Adobe Acrobat PDF fillable form questions!Desperate!!

    Hello!
    Hopefully can quickly answer these questions because I need to get this out by tomorow night :/ I am new to creating Adobe Acrobat Fillable forms, my yearbook adviser wanted to make the yearbook/journalism application a pdf fillable form so I went with the flow. Now I am having issues. I created it with Adobe Acrobat Pro 8.0 if that helps
    1. How do I get individual checks? they all check on the same answers, I need individuality lol. I know radio buttons is jus one chance so thats why I decided against them
    2. How does one do a submit button exactly?
    3. Somehow, I got to the step to distribute the forms but it says error licensing issue? Any ideas?
    Iplease give all an any thoughts on my questions you have no idea how much I appreciate any help!    

    If using check boxes, you need to give each a different field name if you want them to behave independent of one another. You can create a group where at most on in the group can be selected, similar to a radio button group, by giving each the same field name but different export value.
    For #2, it depends on the details of what you want to do. A PDF form can be set up to submit to a web server or to initiate an email with the form data for the entire form attached to the email. If you want Reader users to be able to save the filled-in form and/or submit the entire filled-in PDF, the form has to be Reader-enabled in Acrobat.
    For #3, please provide the exact error message.

  • Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro - Form Toolbar

    There has been a big change from Acrobat 8 Pro to 9 Pro regarding how the forms toolbar is displayed.  While the changes are a great improvement to make it easier to create forms...I am having trouble adjusting to editing forms.  Is there any way to have the forms toolbar display on the regular view so that you do not have to keep going to the button to click add/edit forms and then get a new screen.  I just want to work from the same view and not have to go back and forth when I am working on a form that is already created.  I thought maybe it would be a "right click" or some kind of preference but so far I cannot find any way to change this.  I would appreciate any help!

    Thank you for the response.
    Do you know what the logic was to make such a dramatic change - since all the previous versions of Acrobat permitted the forms toolbar in the regular view?  They must have thought this format was better.  Any ideas?
