Can't edit form after upgrade to Acrobat XI

I am using Adobe Acrobat XI through Adobe Creative Cloud and was going to edit a form that I had made and I get this message:
"This form cannot be edited in Acrobat.  Please use Adobe LiveCycle Design to edit this form."
Does anyone have experience with this problem.
I just edited form in Acrobat about two weeks ago and then it was no problem.

Thanks George, this is a document that I made in 2012.  I have figured out that I did password protect it and also did use an certificate.  So I am going to look in my backups and find the original file before I locked it.
I was only saying that I had edited another form in the Acrobat XI, not this one.
Thank you for your answer.

    The issue is they type but there is 2 second delay when it appears in the field.

    I see, I misread your reference to Reader 11 to mean you were using Acrobat 11, but it looks like it worked out anyway.
    The base-14 fonts are special in PDF because they are guaranteed to be available even if they are not embedded. If you select a non-base-14 font for use with a form field, the entire font usually gets embedded, since each glyph it contains has to be available for use with the field. This can take up a lot of space if you do this a lot, and the space isn't reduced if you change back to a base-14 font later because the internal reference to it is not removed. This is caused by the bug I mentioned.
    In your case, however, the entire font doesn't get embedded because fonts like it (e.g., large asian fonts with a lot of glyphs, Arial Unicode) would take up too much space if fully embedded. If it did, a 100KB PDF could bloat to 20MB with that one change. Instead, users are expected to have such fonts installed on their system, which is why you were prompted to install the font pack. This despite the fact that the font was not actually used by anything in your document, it was simply the orphaned reference to it that triggered this. This should get fixed in Acrobat eventually so this type of thing doesn't happen again.

  • After upgrading to Acrobat X Pro, having problems editing text

    I just upgraded to Acrobat X Pro from Acrobat 8 Professional. I've opened a document (created in Acrobat 8) and when I try to edit the text, it all seems fine until I try to save it. Then the formatting goes awry. The spacing between paragraphs disappears and the document is one solid block, so to speak. I've tried various methods of text editing/saving but nothing seems to work. Any thoughts? Thanks.

    While editing is allowed its just meant to correct a misspelling here or there. Not whole sentences. Another thing that can affect light editing of PDF with Acrobat on OSX.6.7.
    On some applications bad fonts (use FontBook) to verify your fonts. Open Fontbook without any applications on (such as acrobat, Reader, Ms Office). select all fonts. in click on box that shows fonts. Randomly select a font. The hold command key(⌘) press A, that selects all fonts. Look for and use Verify Fonts. Any fonts that can not be verified, or repaired with a Font reair Program should be removed.
    also while all fonts are selected, look for an use reconcile Fonts. This looks for Duplicate fonts. In some cases the same application would use one version one time andanother another time thus causing spacing problems.  click on each one found and see which is duplicated. Disable the oldest version.
    do this with all duplicate fonts found.
    If the above corrects the problem, locate disabled fonts, User >Library >Fonts disabled and Main Library Fonts disabled remove to desktop Make archives and place archives in safe place( in case you need to swap fonts).
    Next if you have X.6.7 Install this Patch: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1377. This corrects some font problems caused by the OSX.6.7 the update that affects Adobe Products, (such as Acrobat, Reader Indesign and others, As well as Microst Products for Mac)

  • Can't add/edit contact after upgrade to IOS5 - HELP!

    After upgrading to ios 5, I can't add or edit the contact. The buttons are gone! How to get them back? I tried numerous restart also no use.

    I was having issues with Calendar after updating to iOS 5.0.1 also.  I finally was able to get Calendar functioning again by turning it OFF within Settings > iCloud.  This action keeps all my calendars on my iPod. I also reverted to backing up my iPod Touch to my computer within iTunes, then restoring, and re-syncing after I made the changes.  Now, I am able to add, edit, and delete events in my calendar just as I was able to do before updating to iOS 5.0.1.  Restoring my iPod Touch only worked temporarily for me (before I change the settings), as the problem returned the very next time I attempted to add an event.  This fix probably will not allow syncing with other Apple devices through iCloud, but it is less drastic than deleting my iCloud account.

  • Cannot display 3D models after upgrading to Acrobat 7.0.7

    After upgrading my copy of Acrobat 7.0.5 to 7.0.7, I found out that 3D Models are not displayed in PDFs.
    "A 3D data parsing error has occurred" message is displayed. In Edit > Preferences > 3D, the "Preferred Renderer" field is empty, and there are no items to choose from.
    When trying to add a 3D model manually in Acrobat, the program crashes.
    Did anyone have a different experience with 7.0.7? Any suggestions as to how to fix this? There is no option to remove 7.0.7 upgrade, only to reinstall it (which I tried; it did not make a difference).

    I have learned that there may be an issue with upgrading to 7.0.7, selecting the "reboot later" option, and then trying to use Acrobat with 3D. The suggested procedure is to do the update and then select "reboot now" when asked. Upon rebooting your system, the correct plug-ins are copied into the running Acrobat directories and things should work properly. We will continue to investigate these types of issues with the updater, but I believe this procedure will help fix these types of problems.

  • No PDF printer after upgrading to Acrobat X Professional

    Hi, I recently upgraded from Acrobat 6 Pro to Acrobat X Pro (technically, an upgrade isn't possible but the Acrobat X Pro installer will uninstall Acrobat 6 and install Acrobat X). After performing the installation "successfully" I no longer have an Adobe PDF printer under printer and faxes.  I'm running Windows XP SP3 (32-bit).  If I uninstall X and reinstall 6 the printer comes back.  But nothing I do can get the printer there under X.  Am I missing something?

  • Can you edit text after saving your file as pdf

    I have recently created a letterhead in Illustrator.
    Is there a way to change a person name and title after saving it as a pdf file? I heard something about creating a form in Acrobat professsional.
    I need to print out a letterhead with different peoples name and title. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    Can you edit the text in Acrobat Reader?
    Yes, if you use Acrobat Pro to save the PDF as a Reader-enabled form.
    1. Create your letterhead in Illustrator (or whatever). Leave design space for, but do not create text objects that you want to be editable.
    2. Save as PDF.
    3. Open the PDF in Acrobat Pro. Use Acrobat's Form tools to add text fields whereever you want the end users to be able to key text.
    4. Select the Enable Reader Usage Rights command in Acrobat to make the form fields edtiable in Reader. Save the file.
    Recipients of the PDF can now open it in Reader, edit the content of the fields, and save the file with their edits.
