  • How to enable Extended Features in Reader 10

    I have pdf forms that were created in Acrobat 8 Pro. Users could change the fields on the forms and save them. Our Enterprise has since "upgraded" to Reader 10. Users can longer make changes in the fields of the forms created in v.8 Pro. I have read the solution in this forum to this issue, which is:
    "To Reader-enable a document in Acrobat 10, select: File > Save As > Reader Extended PDF > Enable Additional Features.
    Do this as the final step when preparing the document to be sent out."
    However, I do not have File > Save As > Reader Extended PDF. Under the File > Save As menu, I only have PDF or Text, not Reader Extended. So how can I fix these pdf's so users can edit the fields and save them? We have hundreds of these documents we need to edit then save. Many thanks.

    If your menu only says "PDF" and "Text" you're in Adobe Reader, not Acrobat.

  • How to enable digital signature for browser enabled infopath form?

    Dear all,
    I have designed infopath form and published it into the document library. I want to provide signature option on the browser enabled infopath form.
    I have created it using secion and digital signature control.
    but I am getting this message.
    When i click on Yes . I get following screen.
    And it just hang here. I have enabled the active x control feature for IE.
    Please tell me where i should install this component and how it can be done? 
    I have access only to the sharepoint site.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you want to enable digital signature for browser enabled infopath form.
    To be able to sign this form, you need to activate two Windows Internet Explorer add-ons. Click the Information Bar in the dialog box, and then click Run ActiveX control to activate each add-on.
    Then you need to active the following add-on.
    In my environment, after I click the Next button, it open the picture as below.
    Once I click the link to add the add-on as above, everthing works well.
    For more information, you can refer to:

  • The Document Enabled Extended Features in Adobe Reader.

    Hi Experts,
    We are facing a problem while opening a PDF form that is editable. get below error message:
    The Document Enabled Extended Features in Adobe Reader,  The document has been changed since it was created & use of extended features is no longer available. Please contact the author for the original version of the document.
    Our requirement is like we received a PDF template from client. we added an image field by using Adobe LiveCycle designer to achieve user signature on the field & save the PDF form, once signature field is added; PDF form is opened in Adobe Acrobat X pro to enable readers extensions (open PDF form in Adobe Acrobat X pro -> File -> Save As - > Readers Extended PDF -> Enable Additional features.).
    Once this reader Enabled PDF form is uploaded in sharepoint Document library where from user can download this form on their local, open this PDF form is opened in Adobe Reader on their local system the Above mentioned message appears.
    Here we are using trial version of Adobe Acrobat X Pro, Can you please confirm if this error is because of this trial version? or some alternate approch.
    Thanks,

  • This document enabled extended features in Adobe Reader. The document has been changed...

    I am trying to distribute an interactive order form to approx. 50 recipients with Acrobat X Standard which I purchased recently.  Computer is Windows 7.
    I can go through the form editing and distribution as usual, but when I (or a recipient) opens up the distributed form with Adobe Reader, they get the message: “This document enabled extended features in Adobe Reader. The document has been changed and use of extended features is no longer available. Please contact the author for the original version of this document.”
    Oddly enough, sometimes is does work, but 90% of the time it doesn’t.
    And I have another, older XP computer with Acrobat X installed, and it works fine 100% of the time – weird....can anyone help?

    Hi Ken
    We have so many people who have not updated they are trying on 9. I might just have to tell them we can’t support under reader 10.
    Thanks

  • Acrobat Pro 8 and Reader X - Enable Extended Features for Form

    Using Acrobat Pro 8.3.0, I "Enabled Usage Rights for Adobe Reader" for a fillable form created in LiveCycle Designer 8.0.  The following error message occurs when opening this form in Reader X:
    "This document enabled extended features in Adobe Reader.  The document has been changed since it was created and use of extended features is no longer available.  Please contact the author for the original version of this document."
    The form has not been changed and as mentioned, I am the author.  Any solutions to allow user in Reader X to fill-in form?  Do I need to upgrade to Acrobat Pro X?

    I am having same problem with a 2011 year tax PDF fill in form I JUST got from IRS website.  The actual form is the 2011 8829.
    I can not open the PDF from the web browser or if I save it to my local drive. 
    I have not been able to open it at all ... thus I have made NO changes.
    I am running Windows 7 64 bit, Adobe Reader X version 10.1.4.
    After trying to open the doc (nothing displays) I go to properties, and it says ...
    Title: 2011 Form 8829
    Author: SE:W:CAR:MP
    Created: 12/23/2008
    PDF Producer: Adobe LiveCycle DSesigner ES 8.2.
    PDF Version: 1.7 (Acrobat 8.x)
    Tagged PDF: No
    Fast Web View: No
    What do I do to resolve this ... I only have this version of Reader ... nothing else.

  • How to Update Extended Feature Forms and Keep Extended Features?

    In the company I work for we have a bunch of PDF certificates that our Customer Service department uses, namely for international sales.  Only the Customer Service manager has Adobe Acrobat so she uses Extended Features so the other people in Customer Service are able to update the forms.  The forms were updated for the new year and then saved in a new folder for 2014.  Now people that are using Adobe Reader get an error about the document being changed and so the extended features are no longer available.  I have read that it can be fixed using Acrobat and saving a copy of the form so that the extended features are disabled and then saving it again to enable extended features, but they have over 60 of these documents so that would take a long time to complete.  Is there an easier way to re-enable the extended features?

    Not without spending (tens of) thousands of dollars on an application that can apply these rights in batch.
    60 files is not that much, though. Sit someone down and they should be able to do it in an hour.
    Also, if you upgrade to Reader XI then you won't need those rights anymore, as that version can save filled-in form fields even without them.

  • How can I extend features and enable typewriter tool in Adobe Reader

    Hello,
    I have forms that I need users to be able to complete and save, but they also need to be able to use the typewriter tool to type stuff in areas of forms that don't have fields. Is this possible? If I enable the typewriter, I can't extend features and vice-versa...

    It's one or the other. Not both.

  • Digital Signatures - how to prevent anyone from using my name

    I've created a bunch of forms that have digital signatures enabled.  When I've created one either with the PKCS or the Windows Certificate, what's to prevent anyone else from just typing my name, email address and Company Name?  Yes, I can create one and save it with a password, but anyone can do that.  I'm confused how I can ask our users to use digital signatures on internal documents, then have them email to accounting or HR, yet there's nothing to prevent anyone from using anyone else's name (ie how can I prove that it wasn't me that signed it)? 
    Is there nothing that's tied to Windows ie I can't use my login ID on our domain unless I use my network password?  That's really the ONLY way I can prove I'm me. 

    Self-signed digital signatures are precisely that - the person creating them is the only one attesting to the contents, so you can make a perfectly-valid self-signed ID for Canta Claus of you want to. The critical thing to remember is that a self-signed ID will only validate if the recipient has your keyfile to compare it to. On your own machine it will show as valid because the key is present, but if you send the PDF to anyone else it will show as invalid unless you have separately transferred them a copy of your keyfile. It's that second file which tells them the ID is really yours, as they can physically check where it came from (e.g. by phoning you up). The recipient would then have to manually add the keyfile to the trusted list in Acrobat or Adobe Reader, and finally your PDF signature will get the green tick.
    Self-signed IDs are find for internal company workflows as everyone can share their keyfiles, and the IT department can manage what's going on. If you're using digital IDs in a public setting you should never use self-signed certificates, instead you should purchase an ID from a Certificate Authority - a company whose IDs are tied to the 'root certificates' embedded in Acrobat and Adobe Reader. The CA will require proof of identity before selling you the cert, and so anyone can verify it's genuine without needing to contact you. CAS-issued certs for signing PDF files are not cheap, there are several vendors out there and I won't comment on which may be better.

  • Enabled Extended Features?

    I am getting an error message which contains the verbage "...use of extended features is no longer available..." This is disallowing me from modifying an existing saved document. Do I have to recreate all documents which have this error message?
    Thanks, Doug.

    "Extend' or "Enable" of a  PDF is accomplished by use of Acrobat Pro or an enterprise level server application Adobe markets.
    Cannot do it with Adobe Reader.
    Be well...

  • Digital signature : how the implement it ?

    Hi,
    I'm looking for documentation on digital signature on interactive forms.
    I've understood that the customer must sign the PDF with a digital signature to prove that the entered data has been added by him. But what kind of signature will it be ? A kind of certificate bought on internet ?
    When the customer will send the form back by mail by clicking on submit, how could i check the signature ? Does the customer has to send me the certificate before ? How does my SAP program will check it ?
    Thanks

  • How to enable WebScan feature in LaserJet Pro MFP M126nw Printer

    I have installed a new LaserJet Pro MFP M126nw printer with wireless configured. The IP Address is 192.168.0.21. I visit http://192.168.0.21 through browser. I don't see Print/Copy/WebScan options there. I can see rest of the configuration tabs.
    I am interested in WebScan feature to scan document from my Chromebook. Please let me know how to enable this.

    Hi,
    The Webscan feature is not available on laser printers, it is only available on Inkjet printers.
    I afraid you can only print from a Chromebook, scanning to a such is not supported with the HP Laserjet Pro MFP M126 printer.
