Design PDF form acrobat 10 pro

Ok so I'm making a PDF form for my school to make it easier for teacher to make hand made report cards. I have an issue where I have a grid Which is a 4x3. Is their an easy wy to create a grid in the PDF form so that the user can write inside each box? The way I'm doing it now is by making a text box for each grid but it's taking for ever since I have to do it for 5 grades for each subject.
I can send a picture if you guys need a better idea. I would really appreciate your help.

Many thanks for your suggestion and background information! I re-enabled AcroTray and other acrobat-associated programs in msconfig at startup and have now checked all occasions of printing to pdf_printer that previously had led to a crash. Everything works well, now. (Although I do not know exactly why - I did not even have to resort to printing to file, as suggested. Maybe I had messed up in previous attempts to solve the problem)
Thank you!

  • Is it possible to edit a pdf with Acrobat Pro XI that was created in LiveCycle?

    I downloaded a trial version of LiveCycle awhile back. I created several forms. The trial period ended and I would like to change something. When I try to edit the pdf in Acrobat Pro it tells me that I must use LiveCycle to edit it. Is there a workaround for this? Thank you in advance for any replies.
    Dana

    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.

  • Problem printing PDF with Acrobat Pro 9.4.4

    Hi!
    I can't correctly print a PDF with Acrobat Pro that was created in Indesign CS5.
    I want to print it on a letter format (8,5 X 11") and it offers me a format of 8,49 X 10,99". It results in having my document being printed as tile with it's original format 12 X 21,5" as if I didn't adjust the format to be reduced.
    I temporary used Preview to print my PDF, but now I can't as the encoding in which I received the PDF used to be "Creo Normalizer JTP" and now it is "Adobe PDF Library 9.9"
    If anyone can help!
    This is my first time here, thanks in advance for your help

    Here's what it looks like (I work in french, hope you can understand)
    I just updated my software, thanks for that!
    Now, my problem is still on... I still have the very same result when I print. I did selected the correct Page Scalling I needed. I did selected the paper size I wanted. I chose Shrink to Printable Area and I tried with Fit to Printable Area.
    Since I've had this problem the size appears as : 8,49 X 10,99 (Instead of 8,5 X 11). I tried with Legal (8,5 X 14) but it appears as 8,49 X 13,99. I went through the preferences, but I can't find anything that could be the problem.
    Any other idea?
    Thanks!!
    Also, Preview was very helpful, as it did print my PDF correctly! I understand it's not the best... but it did the job

  • How to embed a mp4 video into a pdf with acrobat pro XI?

    I'm  trying to embed a mp4 video into a pdf using Acrobat Pro XI.  When I try to play the video, all I see is a black box. The video is H.264 codec. I've tried on a PC and Mac and get the same results.

    Video playback in the Acrobat Family uses Flash Player, so if it works in FP (loaded via an HTML page) then it should work in your PDF. First suggestion is to use the free MediaInfo tool to check exactly what the internal structure reports as.

  • Please advice on adding 3D-animation files into a PDF with Acrobat Pro DC.

    Hello,
    Where is the button animation in Acrobat Pro DC?
    Can you give me advice on adding 3D-animation files into a PDF with Acrobat Pro DC.
    I have Acrobat PRO DC .
    Thank you.

    Hi George,
    I just tried adding the files as attachments; however I didn't like doing that because it increased the file size of my PDF document quite a bit. 
    I'm not sure if you're familiar with the "Insert Object" command in MS Word, but I want to do the same thing in my PDF document...but the key is, anyone must to be able to open the embedded file from any location.
    I created an MS Word document with several embedded objects.  I was later asked to PDF the Word document, but since embedded MS Word objects do not migrate to the PDF, I am now trying to embed the same files I embedded into my Word document into my PDF document over top of the icon image.  The file types I'm trying to embed include MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Adobe PDF.  Does this make more sense?  I want to create a hyperlink over top the icon image that was PDF'd from the MS Word document which allows any user to click on the link and open the separate file.

  • Print only cursor-selected area of a PDF in Acrobat Pro, just as it is psbl to do in a browser

    Hi
    I want to print only cursor-selected area of a PDF in Acrobat Pro. That could be both text and images, which are in my selection. Just as it is psbl to do in a browser. Is it possible in Acrobat PRO?
    I am using the latest Acrobat Pro 11.0.9

    Thanks for your effort but this again clearly does NOT answer my question. I do see a particular problem and that is that I might want to select text and images over a range of multiple pages. In a doc of 20 pages I might want to make a single selection of the text starting PRECISELY at the MIDDLE of page 2 and then continue dragging my selection all the way to PRECISELY the MIDDLE of page 15, thereby selecting all text and images within the precise range of my selection. That is some 13 pages there and I want to print out ONLY THAT selection of text and images. And in that case I cannot use your suggestion with the marquee zoom. Do you get me?

  • How to save an edited PDF in Acrobat Pro without any compression

    Hi,
    I just edited an existing PDF in Acrobat Pro 9 - actually I inserted some high resolution images in TIFF via the Touchup tool.
    What do I have to do to save it without any compression of the TIFFs - I tried a lot, but the outcome is always compressed, showing artifacts.
    Thanks

    First, editing PDFs is really only for minor fixups. There is generally no word wrap or such when doing such editing and often then seem to go downhill fast. To edit text, you have to have the font available. If the file was scanned and the OCR applied was searchable text, the only option to edit what is displayed is with a graphics editor, typically PhotoShop. PhotoShop allows Acrobat to have edited graphics and then be reinserted in the file (I don't do it, so can't give details). ClearScan replaces what is seen on screen in the graphic with the text. In that case, you see all of the text and the corresponding errors (often many). You may want to load a graphic (bitmap) with text showing or use a scan and try the various versions of OCR to see what I am talking about. That may help you see the options. Searchable PDFs is more useful if an original is critical, such as in the legal profession.

  • Where the Adobe Designer PDF Form "Default Locale" read from?

    I am designing PDF form using Adobe Designer. I have set the "Default Locale" in the Edit -> Form Properties. I have set the Display Pattern of numeric field to ZZZ,ZZZ,ZZ9.99. Based on locale, Adobe should format the numeric field accordingly. So where exactly the Adobe Designer read the locale and the number format? From SAP table, Adobe server OS, PC OS or from where? Because I need to check the locale setting ZZZ,ZZZ,ZZ9.99, ZZZ.ZZZ.ZZ9,99 and so on.

    Check in the Interface Or Form Builder -->Interface.
    Reward if Useful.
    Thanks,

  • LiveCycle Designed pdf forms not working on Macs

    I have designed pdf forms with LiveCycle Designer, enabling Reading Rights. These forms have extensive interactive capabilities, including calculations, locking fields on demand, etc.
    They work perfectly on Windows, as long as the user has Adobe Reader 8 or 9. However, I discovered recently that they do not open properly on Macs, and that Mac users cannot fill all the fields, cannot use the buttons (such as jumping to another page), and that the calculations or "if" conditions do not perform at all.
    Is there an extension or program that Mac users can download in order to be able to use these forms? I would hate to have to change the 100 or so forms already done.
    Thanks.

    Hello,
    Thanks for coming back. I'm using the latest version (the 2014 update).
    I've sent you a screenshot of what it looks like when trying to convert to interactive pdf.
    Funny thing was it was working fine until a few tweaks and then decided to do its own thing.
    I've created loads of forms before through Indesign but this error is bizzare

  • Editing a Form Central PDF in Acrobat Pro

    I've created a multi-page form with F Central and need it to be editable in Acrobat Pro.  "Save a Copy" in Acrobat Pro does not remove the security and thusly the form cannot be edited.  Was I misled by Acrobat marketing and now I am stuck with a form that I can ONLY edit using Forms Central?   Can anyone help?

    I don't know if I was very clear.  I want the users to fill out a form and click a button when they are done.   Then I want the result of clicking the button to be for the form to print to Adobe PDF first followed by emailing to me.  Right now the way I set the button up (below), I receive the actual form via email. 
    "Actions" tab,
    "Mouse up,
        Execute a menu item
            File>Save as>PDF...
        Submit a form"
    I want a non editable printed/ refried version AKA "print to Adobe PDF" on the menu items sent to me instead of the actual form.  I have searched all over but can't find if this is possible.
