Can't change action trigger in pdf form

Using Acrobat x pro, i am trying to create a button that will attach the pdf fillable form to an e-mail when the user presses the "emial completed form" button and i can't change the button property Select Trigger from Mouse up to anything else. this is annoying because if you move you mouse over the button it will trigger the action. i want to change it but when i do in the properties window, it changes back automatically.
any help would be great.

Hi,
I'm using PL39 and I can delete rows in matrix (you are right in previous patch there was an error, and it´s imposible to delete rows). I saw the code you put and I doesn´t undestand what you are trying to do. I explain what I do:
- I enable the menu 1293 to delete row in a matrix, in the menu event i put the following code
Dim oMtx As SAPbouiCOM.Matrix =
oMtx.FlushToDataSource()
This works for me.

How can i change the size of PDF files ?

how can i change the size of PDF files? when i convert documents in the acrobat browser it seems the files become larger then normal pdf files, this is, i compare with other files that people send to me and i realise that they are smaller than my converted files, even if they have more pages.

A lot depends on the form of the PDF. Is it graphics, a scan of a text file, pure text, or other? What version of Acrobat are you working with.
You can do a save as to get a WORD file, but do not expect great results. The ability to get a decent WORD file depends on what the form of PDF you are working from. If it was created from WORD with tags and all, you might get good results. If not, you might get a lot of messed up results.
Explain what you are starting with and your ultimate goal. Also check the audit of the file (should be under PDF Optimize) to see where the file information is concentrated (text, fonts, graphics, other).

To edit a pdf, can you do it right in pdf form or must you export the document to word first?

I have been trying to edit a PDF, I have been using the export PDF. This does not have great compatibility so I might as well just create a whole new document. If I upgrade to the premium, can I edit right from the pdf form?

Hi Satya,
Thank you for the immediate response.
Now I can import the pdf files and edit them.
However there is a problem.
I can only open the pdf files which I created by the developer studio.
When I open the pdf files those created by a scanner, they appear blank. However, when I open the same files with acrobat reader, the contects in the file appear.
I will be very thankful if you could help me in this.
Many thanks
sudeep

Can I port content from one pdf form to another, from within the form fields?

WE have been given a seasonal update to our pdf forms - with one new additional form field. Is there a way that I can port all the content from my ready filled form into this new one, without having to copy and paste each individual field?
Thanks.

What is it that you want to do
- you are the form filler; you want to keep the contents of a filled in form (and put them back into a changed form)?
- you are the person responsible for adding/changing form fields; you want to keep the design and location of the form fields while changing the underlying PDF?
- both of these?

Is it too much to ask that a Mac user can just OPEN and USE a PDF form created by LiveCycle Designer PC software?!?

My problem is just that- I have created all my forms using LiveCycle Designer because it is easier to make the forms accessible to individuals with disabilities. Apparently it doesn't make Mac users have access to the forms. I've received complaints from Mac users that cannot complete or submit the forms that I created. I'm not asking how to recreate using another software, I know how to do that. I'm asking is there a work around to allow a Mac user to open a PDF form or even XML (bedded within an HTML page) on a Mac computer WITHOUT having to use bootcamp, parallels, etc. and be able to complete the form and submit, print or email it????? I've exhausted all my knowledge on this thus far and I'm hoping to find something that will help. So far all forums talk about how Mac users need to have a PC side to their computer. Isn't there another way?
I've attached an example form that we are no longer using (though still created exactly the same as the others)
Thanks!

Hi, as far as I can infer, that term means it's not loading any resources until needed, opposite of this...
-bind_at_load
Sets a bit in the mach header of the resulting binary which tells dyld to bind all symbols when the binary is loaded, rather than lazily.
https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/ man1/ld.1.html
Load resources lazily.
You should never load a resource file until it is actually needed. Prefetching resource files may seem like a way to save time, but this practice actually slows down your app right away. In addition, if you end up not using the resource, loading it wastes memory for no good purpose.

And, higher OS versionsare even worse with Bonjour/mDNSResponder, but might see this...

How can I change the Save as PDF view?

Whenever I save a website page on Safari, or an e-mail or a document as a PDF file, I click File, Print and then PDF when the print page comes up. I then click Save as PDF which brings up what appears to be a Finder window. The problem is all my files and folders in each column are there alphabetically with files and folders mixed together. I have a lot of folders and files and I have to scroll all the way to the bottom sometimes to find the folder I want. How can I change this view so all the folders are at the top alphabetically with the files below? The normal Finder window comes up with each column having the folders at the top with PDF documents together below and regular documents together below that. Any help would be appreciated.

Jeff, thanks for the reply, but I am not talking about Finder. I already have Finder set up with Kind. I am talking about when I want to save a page on Safari, or an e-mail or a document as a PDF file, I click File, Print and then PDF when the print page comes up. I then click Save as PDF which brings up what looks like a Finder window. In that window all my files and folders in each column are there alphabetically with files and folders mixed together. I don't see any where where I can can change that view like you can in Finder. As I say, Finder is set up correctly, it is only when I try to save something as a PDF that the "Finder" window has all files and folders alphabetically and not by kind.

Can I use data entered in PDF form's field(s) to auto-populate Save As file name?

Hello,
I want to automate, as much as possible, the "Save As" process by using some of the data that the user entered in the fillable PDF form.
For example, I want to include the user's First Name and Last Name that they entered in the form to be part of the saved file name.
First Name: Bob
Last Name: Smith
Therefore, when you select to Save As part of the new file name will already have <BobSmith><today's date>.PDF
Form was created using LiveCycle Designer 11
PDF version: 1.7, Adobe Extension Level 8 (Acrobat X)
Thanks for any information that you can share.
Regards,
Roch

You should try the LiveCycle Designer forum, but from my experience with Acrobat forms it's not possible. What you can do is either save the file using the desired file name and path (without user interaction), if the script runs from a trusted context, or you can prompt the user with the desired file-name for the file, but not enforce them to use it, nor populate it into the Save As dialog itself.

Can the responses submitted from a pdf form be viewable in a table format in SharePoint?

I created a pdf form with Acrobat X. My plan it to upload the form to SharePoint and allow users to use this form to submit "help desk" type issues. However, I have a virtual team that need to view the responses in a table format so they can filter and sort the growing list of responses. Acrobat seems to only allow me to save the "response" file on my own desktop, not SharePoint. Is there a way for the responses to be stored and viewed in a SharePoint workspace so that members of the virtual team can view and sort the users' responses in a table format?

Yeah that's the best bet, though if you don't want to make a bunch of fields, you can also just save it with the Typewriter tool enabled in Acrobat (Tools > Typewriter > Enable Typewriter Tool in Adobe Reader). Then, the person viewing it will get a little typewriter tool that they can use. I think they have to have version 9 of Adobe Reader.
But it looks the best to add in all the fields individually.
Hope that helps,
Phyllis

How can I copy and paste a pdf form onto my Mavericks Clipboard. I only see word-wrapped text.

How can I copy and paste a pdf onto my Mavericks Clipboard. I only see word-wrapped text.

Yes, Thank you for using the term Place. You moved my focus off the clipboard, and Place set me back on course. Somewhere, the terms Copy and Paste need to be tagged to Place and Export. I'm a database designer who only uses Illustrator for forms the database fills. My need isn't yet met, but the rest should come with reading the right references. Thanks Larry!

Setting action buttons in PDF forms

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/acrobat/using/WSBB6EF75F-BC3D-4094-B787-FB76DAE1EBDC.w.html

The method that you set up in Nitro is the same as you'd set up in Acrobat, so getting Acrobat won't make any difference. Also, it will not work for some Windows users as well.
The web server method that has been mentioned is available with Adobe's FormCentral. You can distribute a PDF form by email, web server, or any other means and user can open the form in Reader, fill it in, save it, and then submit it.
When submitted, the form data, as opposed to the complete PDF, is securely sent to the FormCentral server. You can configure it to send you an email for each received submission. The responses are saved to a table that you can access any time and export to a file that you can import into a spreadsheet or database. You can also display summary reports and generate PDF copies of filled-in forms. I think it's a bargain for about $12/month. If you already have the form created you can have it up and running with FormsCentral in a matter of minutes. You can set up an unlimited number of forms and receive an unlimited number of responses.
Even if emailing worked reliably with a form you enable with Acrobat, you are limited by the Acrobat license agreement to using data from no more than 500 responses. With a FormsCentral enabled form, there is no such limit. Nitro is not able to enable a form to be savable with Reader.

How can I automatically fill and save PDF forms from an iSeries database file withouth viewing PDFs?

We have incoming data that we need to insert into a PDF form then save an individual PDF file for each record from the database table for our Image system. Data is coming from an iSeries file and I can Manually perform all the steps within the process, but this needs to be something that we can run from a scheduled job and should be a totally hands off process. The form is in Adobe Acrobat and I've been trying some of the JavaScript pieces, but can't seem to get everything to run automatically. I'm new to PC programming and can use any suggestions on how to handle this process.

You might want to post this to the Acrobat SDK forum here. For it to work with Acrobat, it cannot be a completely automated process, however, due to licensing (and technical) restrictions. There are a number of third-party APIs that might help. If you post again, include what format the data is in (FDF, XFDF, XML, XDP) and what programming languages you can work in.

How can i change normal document to pdf in pages

Hey,
I'm using pages for writing documents. I was wondering how can I change my normal document to PDF-format. Thanks.

Have a look around Pages. Most of the things you are looking for are there and well ordered and labelled.
The Menu and Inspector names mean what they say.
The File menu for example handles files.
Also download and read the Pages '09_UserGuide.pdf from under the Help menu.

Can response prompts be added to PDF forms?

I am trying to create a survey that inserts response prompts into form completion to indicate questions are unanswered and the number of questions unanswered. Can response prompts be added to PDF formcentral forms to accomplish this function? If so, how do I add this function to my form.

This is something that is not supported by FormsCentral.

Using ID CS3 -- Can I change a B&W PDF to print in process blue?

Would like to change a B&W PDF to print in process blue - is this possible?

Huh. I was pretty sure it's tiff only, no psd - but then I ran a test and found that I could add a swatch to my test psd within InDesign. And I thought that it was bitmap-only, but I just saved an 8-bit greyscale tiff out of PS and colorized it without issue.
(click click click)
Aha! Back in 2009, Peter said that transparency prevents color-ize-ability of tiffs in ID. That'd be the explanation, I bet.
