Cannot type on form after receiving it via email

After form filler completes the form, it is then emailed to the appropriate people using the "email" button. This is working great. It comes thru as a PDF and even those with only the Reader can complete and email the form. The recipients of the form need to add information to the bottom (date received, number assigned, etc.) and email it back to the originator for their files. My problem is that the recipients cannot type on the form after they receive it. How do I resolve this?

Are there signature fields on the form?
Does the signature field for the first signer 'Mark as readonly:' 'All Fields'?

Keeping PDF form format when sending via email

Hello, I have created a form using Adobe LiveCycle. It contains a submit button to send the filled out form to a recipient via email. After numerous draft attempts the form gets converted into an .XML format when it is attached to a new email message. I want the form to stay as a PDF but LiveCycle indicates the form would need to be sent to an HTTP address. I don't have such an address.
Is there some way to force the form to keep its PDF format and be sent via email by the push of a button?
(I know that you can click File--attach to Email to but I would like to avoid that method). Thank you.

Q: Is there some way to force the form to keep its PDF format and be sent via email by the push of a button?
A #1: Yes, you can use the standard button, set the format to "PDF" and supply the mailto:[email protected] and it will use the client side email software to attach and send the PDF. Note: You will need to enable usage rights on the PDF to allow Adobe Reader users to submit whole PDF format. Normally Adobe Reader users are only allowed to submit the data formats, XML and XDP for LiveCycle forms, and HTML, XFDF and FDF for Acroforms.
A #2: You can also bypass client-side email software such as OUTLOOK, if you set the submit button action to a URL of a server-side script, such as PHP or ASP.Net. The script could generate an SMTP message, and attach the submission without the use of client-side email software. By using a server-side script, the PDF submission process is almost fool proof.

Receive Updates via eMail Doesn't Work

My "Receive Updates via eMail" and "More System Details" options do not work anymore. They used to work about a couple of weeks ago.
Does anyone else has the same problem or just me?
Any suggestions/comments are much appreciated.
Thank you.

This is a known bug, it should hopefully be fixed next week when they update the software used by this forum.

I cannot share a document in Pages anymore via email. Help?

I cannot share a document in Pages anymore via email. Do I need to update IWork?
I have OX Yosemite Version 10.2.

In Yosemite, Pages '09 v4.3 has dropped functionality for the Share menu ▸ Send via Mail. You will need to export to disk, and then drag/drop into Mail.
You should be running Pages v5.5.2 (current) on Yosemite. Otherwise, update from the App Store. Whether from the Share menu, or the Toolbar Share icon, I have not experienced Send a Copy ▸ Mail failing to export and attach documents to Mail.

Adobe reader cannot extract embedded font after pdf sent via outlook

We have some pdf files that open fine in Adobe Reader 9.1.3. Once we send them via e-mail (we use Outlook 2003), they will not open properly with the error message: "Cannot extract the embedded font 'TWDWSP+TradeGothic-Light. Some characters may not display or print correctly." When we click OK, another error message appears: "An error exists on this page. Acrobat may not display the page correctly. Please contact the person who created the PDF document to correct the problem." If the files are sent in a ZIP archive, they open correctly, but not if sent individually as PDFs. Can someone help?

It's one of the reasons that it's not recommended to send a PDF via email without Zipping it first. Either the senders or receivers email client may use encoding to make the ransfer faster which can wreck PDF's.
Best bet is to Zip (as you've seen) the file first or post it to a web space and email the link.

Cannot type in password after awaking, ideapad yoga 2

Any one has met this problem? Is there anyone would provide a solution? Thanks!
I got the new ideapad yoga 2 yesterday. And this happens twice. When I awake the laptop from sleep model. I cannot type in password. The keyboard light turn on, but cannot work anymore. I have to sleep it again, then I can type again.
Why this happened.

There are also reports of touchpad driver issues and since both the keyboard and touchpad run from the legacy PS/2 port it's possible that the problems are related...

Cannot re-install software after receiving Error 16

I tried to re-install Adobe Elements 11 after receiving Error 16. It would not re-install. It sent me an e-mail asking me to verify my e-mail address, clicking on a link which I did. It took me to a screen asking me to subscribe to a Creative Cloud product which I don't want. I just want to re-install Elements 11. How can I do that?

Acrobat 7 Pro - form won't submit via email, and data won't submit either

Hi. I am trying to create a form for end users at my website to be able to open the form in Reader, enter their data in the form, and click on the "Submit" button to email it back to me (or any other way it can come back would be okay... as long as I can get the data).
In doing some research on program software needed to do this, I came to the conclusion I needed to have the Adobe suite (Acrobat Pro 7, Distiller 7, and Designer 7), and so I spent a lot of money obtaining this software. I also have just downloaded Reader 9.0 (the most recent).
Here are some particulars:
1. Following directions Ive found on Adobe online, and the Help files as well as in this forum, in the form (in Designer), I have the Submit button going to a URL of mailto:[email protected].
2. I've saved the form as a Static PDF Form File in Designer. Things are going well.
3. The form works great in PDF Preview all form fields are setup and act correctly. Super!
4. I FTP my file to the appropriate website, where once the link to the form is clicked the form opens (in Reader) for my users. Perfect!
5. The user then opens the form, and before they start to fill it out, a popup shows this:
Sending Data Fields By Email. Please note: This form contains an email submit button. Clicking this button will email a data file containing data you type into this form. However, the form itself will not be sent. Remember, you cannot save a completed copy of this form with Adobe Reader 9
Then you have the option to Dont show again and a button to Close.
6. After clicking Close, the user is then able to fill in the fields. These fields are standard fields, nothing exceptional, nothing fancy, just text.
7. At the end of the form is the Submit button. When a user clicks this, NOTHING happens. Even when you try to do the File/Send thing, the form will send, but none of the data. Im not so happy right now L
8. In this forum, I now see directions to Reader Enable in Adobe Pro (I do have Adobe Pro). The directions say Advanced/Enable Reader (as in one of the above posts is stated, 'Advanced > Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader'). However, I do not have an Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader under my Advanced tab. So, continuing to read in other similar posts, I find others dont have this option either so, one question is, where is it??? ;-)
9. Now I see what appears to be another piece of Adobe software that I need, that is LiveCycle? I think Im getting in over my head, as I dont understand
I am new to all this, and am doing my best, but now Im totally confused. All I want to do is have my measly little form open up and have people fill it in and email it back to me so that I can take that data and work with it.
I run (or am trying to run) a non-profit (i.e., Im paying 100% of the bill) website for local Humane Societies who can facilitate offering online Adoption Applications (this is the form Im trying to make happen). I got the form made, and its fillable its just not being able to be submitted online; and when it DID get submitted (first try or so), it came through with no data, and the .xml file data wouldnt populate.
Bottom line question: Is this, what Im trying to do, feasible or not? Im just a simple soul trying to help out some animals. Im not a programmer, so if thats what it takes I guess Im gonna have to give up and forget it. I only wanted to help make things easer for folks to adopt a pet.
Any help by anyone would be totally and gratefully appreciated. Thank you.
keywords: empty form, form not submitting, can't email form, data not transferring, no data in form, can't submit form, can't submit data

Hi, and thank you for the reply.
I've already spent several hundred dollars on getting Adobe Acrobat software, and was hoping there was some work-around on this? What did people do before LiveCycle for instance when they needed to get data from submitted forms via email?
Please don't misunderstand, but as in my example described above, what can a 3rd party do for me (to enable more 'robust rights') that I can't do myself? I'm trying to figure out if I have the software to do it, paid for the software that is "supposed" to do it, why then I need to pay more money to someone else to make the software do what it's supposed to? I sure don't want to have to pay someone to fix it each time I need to make a change in my form for instance...
I'm confused I guess - I suppose the purpose of my asking on the forum here was to hopefully gain some know-how as how to go about doing this myself vs. paying someone else to do it for me. I want to learn, but just don't know where to start. Or, maybe the software I have just doesn't do what I believed it was capable of doing?
Guidance and/or suggestions from all on this point would be very appreciated. Thank you.

I cannot send a Pages document, Word format via email from my ipad if it has a picture in the the doc. I can send a Word doc if it does not have a pic in it or pdf with a pic. Any thoughs why a word doc with a pic in it won't email in Pages? thanks

I cannot send a Pages document, Word via email if the doc contains a picture. If I email a Pages doc without a pic in Word format or pdf with a pic it with go through to sender? Not sure why Pages won't send Word doc with a picture in it. I check the security on the email recipient and the email doesn't get blocked or throw in the junk box?
thanks,

If you have upgraded to Mountain Lion, Save As… has returned to the File menu when you hold down the Option/alt key. But you don't really "save" as other file types, you translate & export as Word or RTF or text or PDF & that is easily done by going to File > Export or Share > Export.
Also, please do us all a favor & don't use all capitals in your posts, either the body of the post or the title. All caps is the internet equivalent of shouting & is very hard to read.

Pdf form can't send via email

Form help - receiving responses via e-mail (Acrobat 9 Pro Extended)

I have created a "test" form in Acrobat. The question fields are proprietary content and thus security is set such that the recipient cannot copy, change, or print the form. The answer fields are drop-downs with A - D options. I have sent the form to myself as a test and all that works properly. I need to be able to receive completed forms via e-mail (or just the data if that works) but need to eventually be able to export (or copy) each response set, in order, into MSExcel. When I tried to send the completed form via e-mail, it indicates the form cannot be saved (obviously due to security settings) and thus the changes (answers) will not be part of the form - only the original with the default answers.
How can I enable responders to send me the test answers via e-mail, without compromising the proprietary nature of the form's content?
Also, I would prefer not to use the Adobe on-line repository because, as I understand it, gives the user access to the form via the web.
I do have a web site in which I could host the test and allow users to access it, take the test, and then submit the answers.
THANKS!!!!

I finally got our webmaster to put the link to the form online so that I could test the form. It is not sending to the address specified. I have setup the Submit button as follows: in the window under Enter a URL for this link: the URL was input as MailTo: [email protected] (there is a space between MailTo: and the e-mail address). After submitting Outlook 2k3 sends back an undeliverable message. Is the space in the URL causing the issue or is it something I need to run by our security people due to the way the form is being submitted?
Many thanks,
Mike

Receiving bill via email

I cannot find in the Verizon UI where to set up emailed bills. I am not receiving these currently nor am I receiving paper bills.
Can anyone tell me where to set this up in the user interface at Verizon?
TIA
JG

Verizon does not email bills. They will email you a notification when your bill is ready to be viewed online in your MyVerizon acct.
In your MyVerizon acct, under "Manage My Account", select "Manage Paperless Billing". You will be able to change your settings there.

Can I make it so they send the entire form back to me via email?

Am I understanding this right that the email back to me function will only email the information of the cells they've entered, not the entire document?
Well I need to have the entire document with info in the cells, not just the info itself.
Is there any way to set it so that when the other person emails me this document back I receive the whole thing?
I am doing things like Independent Contractors Agreement, model release etc. So I'll need an individual file & forms on every person, not just the info.
Thanks.

Print the form using file/print. Then instead of selecting your printer, select adobe pdf. This will print the form to a pdf you can open in Acrobat. Then there is a forms menu that will allow you to add the fields. Once you have completed setting up the fields, you go to the advanced menu and enable the rights in reader. This will allow the user to save the form and send it back to you. Or you could create a submit button to email the response back to you.
We've been talking about this in the Acrobat forum. This is a duplicate thread.
