Can't create PDF form.

I have signed in with my paid account ID. When I try to create a PDF form from my online form, I get a message that says I must sign in with a paid account. How can I rectify this?

Are you the author of the form you are trying to create the PDF from? Is it possible it was shared with you? The forms "rights" are based on the author so if a "Free" level user had shared this form with you, you could not save as PDF.
Have you tried this with any other forms? Have you tried other paid features such as adding skip logic, or an attachment field, Submission Reciepts or Notifications?
Thanks,
Josh

How do I use auto-form recognition to create PDF forms in Acrobat XI?

I used to use Acrobat 9 to create PDF forms that would allow me to fill in text into the fields that were created. Acrobat XI seems to have changed the way this function is performed. Previously, I could run an auto form recognition wizard, do some minor tweaking, and be done. Now, when I attempt to follow the process in Acrobat XI, I get the following message that pops up: "No new form field annotations were detected.", and no fields get created. I could do this manually, but the process of doing so is very clunky and cumbersome. Once I create a new text field, I must then go back and resize it. This would not be a problem if I was only working with a few fields on a single page, but I have a six page document with multiple fields to create (text fields, check box fields, etc.). Perhaps I'm missing something, but there seems to be no simple way to do this anymore. It's making me want to just install Acrobat 9, so that I will have back the feature that I used to have. I'm using Acrobat XI on Mac, but I'm assuming the function should be the same in Windows. I can use Preview on the Mac to simply type in the text that I need, but I was hoping to pass along the PDF so that others can use it as well. This is not just a one time thing.

There are no APIs for C# and external applications for this conversion. There is however an API for Acrobat plugins to perform this operation. So, if necessary, you could write a custom plugin (that calls the API you need) and expose that via some form of IPC to your C# app.

Created PDF form in Acrobat XI Pro, but HELP fields disappear when I save FCDT file to PDF. Please help. Thanks!

Created PDF form in Acrobat XI Pro, but HELP fields disappear when I save FCDT file to PDF. Please help. Thanks!

I am not aware of a field type "Help" within a PDF form. I do not see it as a form field that can be added in the form edit mode.
Forms Central forms do not support all the features of Acrobat forms.
Are you talking about the "Tool Tips" or a hidden field that only shows when one enters a field and is hidden upon exiting the field.

Why i can't create PDF with right format by LiveCycle?

Hello,
As we know that PDF format has four sections, the header, object body, cross-reference table and trailer.
But after I create a PDF by Adobe LiveCycle, and open it by UltraEdit or Notepad, I cannot find the cross-reference table and some objects, “trailer” word either .
I try to download several PDF files by follow link:
https://my.adobeconnect.com/_a295153/p10077996/?launcher=false&fcsContent=true&pbMode=norm al ,
and open them as the same way as before, it was the normal format I learn.
So, why my PDF is not the right format? And how can I create PDF with right format?
Thank you a lot!
Ellie

Adobe LiveCycle Designer makes XFA forms - a thin PDF wrapper around XML, no useful PDF page objects. Still, they are valid PDF. Like any PDF, you might not find a trailer or xref if a cross reference stream is used. See ISO 3200-1 7.5.8 "Cross-Reference Streams".

Creating PDF forms in Frame (switch from Word?)

Here's another "can I switch from Word" question. I am an old (5.5) Frame ACE now in a new job where we use Word. Frame would be a much better choice in many ways, for many reasons.
I could use some help figuring out whether Frame creates forms that convert easily to PDF. As an end product, what we need is a PDF form with a large number of fixed-length text fields; users must be able to download the form and fill it in at their leisure, either all at once or in stages, saving their work as they go.
These files are currently constructed in Word out of tables. They are a terrible mess and must be recreated from scratch. If Frame handles forms well, we can start that work fresh in Frame and dump Word completely. (This is a question I could answer for myself in a few minutes if I could download a trial. Bad timing.)
Can somebody with a current copy of Frame tell me how it handles forms and whether it's possible to use Frame to create PDF forms with plenty of fixed-length text fields, some of them quite long?
Your help is much appreciated. Thank you!
V. B. Beck

Thank you, Sheila.
Users are most likely to simply have Adobe Reader.
Sorry to be asking for so much help--it is rather maddening not to be able to download the trial and take a quick look for myself.
Are form fields defined directly within Frame, or is it necessary to hack the PDF? If within Frame, how is length of input defined--by number of characters? Or, as with LiveCycle Designer, can you "limit length to visible area"?
Thanks as always and in advance for the help.

Creating PDF forms in Preview??

Do I HAVE to have another application other than Preview (e.g. Adobe Acrobat, or something) to create PDF forms? I'm trying to do a questionnaire-type thing, and so far haven't been successful in creating one. Thanks.

I know how to save things as PDF, it's just I'd like to create a form that people can fill in, and I'd like to do it as a PDF document that I can email out.

Creating PDF forms: possible in InDesign?

Hi there
I'd like to create PDF forms to be used for email questionnaires and surveys. The last time I looked into it I found that I needed to create the PDF first and then use another application (I can't remember the name) to add the fields for the form. I found it to be a little clumsy, and didn't have the layout control that I do with InDesign. Is there a way of creating forms entirely in InDesign?
Any help would be appreciated.
Graham

.. then use another application (I can't remember the name) to add the fields ..
That would be Acrobat Pro.
Nothing ID can do for you here. You still create the PDF with a layout package, and add form fields (which are a PDF feature, not a layout thing) with Acrobat. Fortunately, Acrobat has a nearly magical Form Field wizard that'll help you through that process as painless as possible.

Create PDF form sancer show "IsCapAllowed"

Why I use create PDF form sancer, my Adobe Pro XI will show "IsCapAllowed", and then show "Runtime Error!" and termination, please support.

Hi ngai_951127,
Are you able to scan using the software included with the scanner, or does this error only occur when you scan from Acrobat? Have you been able to scan from Acrobat previously? What OS and version of Acrobat are you using? So many questions, I know!
Please make sure that your scanner driver is up-to-date and appropriate for the OS that you're using. And, if the error persists, you can try repairing your Acrobat installation.
Let us know how it goes.
Best,
Sara

How can I create a form in FormsCentral be a self-correcting quiz for my students?

How can I create a form in FormsCentral be a self-correcting quiz for my students?

Hi;
You can't make it self correcting.
The only related idea I have is you could publish the Response Table (the "View Response" tab). You could add an entry for the "right" answers so after a student completes the form the re-direct URL could take them to the Response Table where they could see their entry along with the right answers that you had added.
They could not edit their response to correct it unless they have a FormsCentral account (free is fine) and you share the form with them, otherwise they can still view the link to see how they did (but would also see all of the other students answers).
If this sounds interesting I can give more detail on how to set it up.
Thanks,
Josh

How can I create a form for users wherein the text field will expand to accommodate additional text?

How can I create a form for users wherein the text field will expand to accommodate additional text?

You need to use LiveCycle (PC Only) to create a dynamic form like that.
The best you can do with Acrobat to view all of the text in a field is to set the field to multiline, and set the size to "Auto" (If you don't set the size to 'Auto', you can enter as much text as you wish, but the user will need to use the scrollbar to view all of the text.)

Can you create a form in Adobe XI without using formscentral?

I am trying to create a form that does not fit with any of the templates offered by Adobe. I used Adobe LiveCycle to create my form last time. I now have Adobe XI and want to do a simialr type of form but none of the offered formats allow me the freedom of LiveCycle. Is there a way I can still create a form without using FormsCentral?

Hi,
Tables are not currently supported in FormsCentral. Please cast your vote on the featue request at http://forums.adobe.com/ideas/1709. We take votes in consideration when planning new features.
Thanks,

Can't create PDF files with adobe acrobat professional 8 on windows 7

I running acrobat Professional 8 on Windows 7 64bit. I can only create PDF files while logged on as administrator. I tried adding the user to the Administrators group, but still have the same problem. The system hangs right after adobe promts me for the file name, I provide the file name click save and it hangs when displaying the "printing message'
Any ideas?
Thanks
Fernando

Acrobat Pro 8 is not compatible with Win 7---especially for creating pdfs.

Can't create PDFs from Word due to Cambria font. Help.

I'm using win 7 32 bit office 2010 acrobat pro 9. I can't create pdfs from word because of problems with cambria. I've ttried all the fixes I can find but none worked. Any more ideas?
[thread title updated by moderator]

How are you trying to create the PDF? With AA9 you have to print to the Adobe PDF printer or use the MS plugin.
When you say you cannot create PDFs because of Cambria, what error messages are you getting and copy them here? At this point we really do not know what you are having problems with or how you are trying to create PDFs.
In the future, please provide a topic to help folks that are stepping through all of the posts. A blank topic almost led me to simply skip your post.

Can't create PDFs from Acrobat or Word?

Downloaded the 8.1.4 update and now I can't create PDFs from Acrobat or Word. If I try to create a PDF from the print menu, I get a message indicating that there are no print drivers for this...any ideas?

Thanks for responding. Yep, I tried repairing it...no dice. Then I realized that I'd re-installed AA Pro 8 (having completely given up on the AA Pro 9 upgrade that crashed my system) but not the updates. So I went through and re-installed each update. Still no dice. Then I did another repair. Nope. When I try to create a PDF via the print menu, I get a "Windows cannot print due to a problem with the current printer setup." This tells me that I have driver problem. But everything else prints fine, and I'm pretty sure Acrobat doesn't have drivers. I'm stumped...
