Dropdown List and Usage Rights in Adobe Reader

Hi everyone!
The problem is: I can't save data when I open my form in Adobe Reader 7, even if I apply usage rights in Acrobat Professional before.
But in Adobe Reader 8, it works!
Can anyone help me, please?
I designed a form into Livecycle with a drop-down-list dynamically populated from a data source (XML file).
After the design be done, I opened the form in Acrobat Professional and attach the XML file by the menu "Forms > Manage form data > import data".
Then I apply usage rights in Acrobat, to enable saving in Reader.
As I said, it works fine in Reader 8: I can choose any item from drop-down-list and save the form. But in Reader 7, it doesn't.
Thanks in advance.
Diego

OK, here you go.

    This video shows you how to take a PDF document and grant rights to Adobe Reader users. Also included, the Adobe Acrobat versions needed to enable these rights.

    This video is very helpful as it explains exactly what I want to do:  Extend Features in Adobe Reader, to allow my readers to save their changes.  However, I do not have that option in my version of Adobe X Pro 10.1.4.  Can anyone explain to me why I don't have that option, and what an alternative would be?  

  • Enabling usage rights in Adobe Reader corrupts PDF text

    Hi,
    I've created a registration form using Open Office writer which has editable fields. I convert this to a PDF and then add a signature field in Acrobat 8.
    At this point everything works fine, all the editable fields etc convert across, but I want people to be able to sign and save the form in Reader, so I check the "Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader" feature and save it. Now when I open the PDF in either Acrobat or Reader all the text is completely corrupted and illegible (see image).
    Any idea what's going on here?
    Thank you

  • Problem with enabling usage rights for Adobe Reader

    Hi All,
    I have designed a form using Live cycle. From Live cycle I export it as PDF. As a final step, I open the PDF by using acrobat professional to enable usage rights for Adobe Reader. As soon as I enble the rights it saves the document with a different name, which is fine. However; at the same time it also runs the postsave events from the form and removes a couple of objects. How do I avoid this? My form has very little code:
    There is a drop down field called 'LearningSolutionsAdvisor' which has the following code on PostSave event:
    NewHorizons.Page1.LearningSolutionsAdvisor::postSave - (FormCalc, client)
    LearningSolutionsAdvisor.access ="readOnly"
    There is 'Save' button which has the following code:
    NewHorizons.Page1.Save::click - (JavaScript, client)
    app.execMenuItem("SaveAs");
    NewHorizons.Page1.Save::postSave - (FormCalc, client)
    Save.presence = "invisible"
    I thank you for your help in advance.
    Regards,

  • How to set enable usage rights in adobe reader?

    Dear all,
    How to set "enable usage rights in adobe reader..." in acrobat sdk?
    I did that through menu event but it shows saveAs dialog window.
    Please anyone guide how to handle the saveas window. Otherwise if there is any method to directly enable the option.
    Thanks...

    There is no way to automate this in the Acrobat SDK.  If you need to automate Reader Enablement, you need another product – LiveCycle Reader Extension Server.

  • Acrobat x pro - Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader

    Hi,
    Can any one tell me how to Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader?

    Be sure to read the license agreement. It has restrictions on the use of Reader Rights. The restrictions depend on your planned use.

  • Save and File Attachment usage rights for adobe reader

    With Acrobat Pro is there any way to save a pdf that has both save usage rights and file attachment usage rights?
    It seems that if I save the pdf with save the form data usage rights then I can no longer use createDataObject or setDataObjectContents methods when viewing with adobe reader or acrobat.
    createDataObject and setDataObjectContents require 'File Attachment' usage rights, which from the behavior I am getting totally disjoint from the save usage rights.
    I have no trouble using submitForm method with save usage rights applied to the pdf.

    Thanks for the replies, I also want to verify that a pdf created with acrobat that uses createDataObject or setDataObjectContents will no longer function properly in acrobat after saving the pdf with the additional usage permissions.  Is there any documentation that points to what  functions are crippled by saving the pdf with the various choices of  extensions enabled?  It seems as if I save the pdf with any type of extended usage rights for reader, then the pdf functions as if it was opened by adobe reader even if I have it open in acrobat?

  • How to save a PDF File if you create it in lifecycle and view it in adobe reader 9.

    I am having a issue with a file that I created in Adobe lifecycle and then tried to fill out the form in adobe reader 9.
    Here is the big issue I can fill out the form but can not save the information that I put in the form. It will only allow me to save a blank copy of the form. It tells me that in order to keep the information I must fill the form out and print a copy. How do I change the setting on the Life cycle version in order to allow people to keep a electronic copy of the PDF if they olny have adobe reader 9? I anyone know how to get that done please let me know.
    Here is what software I have:
    Adobe pro 9
    Adobe lifecycle designer ES 8.2
    Adobe reader 9
    Adobe distiller 9
    Adobe photo shop elements 3.0

    You might be way past this step but if you view it in adobe acrobat 8 or later
    toolbars up top

  • How to disable right-click and keyboard shortcuts in adobe reader?

    Hello All,
    We are currently working on an issue. We want to display a pdf to users but not allow them to save it. Though we are able to hide the menubar and toolbars, the Shortcuts F8, F9 and Ctrl+Shift+S is the undoing of all. The user can still use these shortcuts to enable toolbar and menubar. Can anyone suggest how to disable the right-click and keyboard shortcuts in adobe reader?
    Thanks in Advance

    Impossible, and illogical. PDF files are not streamed or RAM-cached so if someone is viewing a file they must have already saved it.

  • Advanced menu - Enable User Rights in Adobe Reader

    Hello,
    Where in the "Advanced" drop down list can I find
    Advanced menu - Enable User Rights in Adobe Reader.
    I would like to send a form to more than 500 people who will need to save it to their desktop, fill out the designated text boxes, save it again, and then email it back to me.  I have the form saved in Adobe Acrobat Standard 8.  Guidance would be appreciated. 

    It is against the license for you to retrieve the information from more than 500 people. You need to purchase a Livecycle product to do what you want.

  • I HATE my new MACBOOK PRO, it will not let me open any PDF files and I downloaded the ADOBE READER three freaking times and it keeps saying that all the files are corrupt. I would rather have my 2008 Dell at this point. what is wrong with this thing

    I HATE my new MACBOOK PRO, it will not let me open any PDF files and I downloaded the ADOBE READER three freaking times and it keeps saying that all the files are corrupt or damaged. I would rather have my 2008 Dell at this point. what is wrong with this thing

    Perhaps the PDF files are corrupted.
    Hit the command key and spacebar, a blue Spotlight in the upper right hand corner appears, now type Preview and press return on the Preview program.
    Now you can try opening the PDF's from the file menu and see what's going on.
    If they are corrupted, perhaps they are trojans from your Windows PC or gotten from a bad location online.
    Download the free ClamXav and run a scan on the possibly infected folder.

  • Print from Windows Explorer Right Click (Adobe Reader X, WinXP)

    When I right click on a batch of PDF files in Windows Exploer (WinXP) and click "Print" Reader used to print them all to

    I am also getting exactly the same problem, highlighting multiple pdf files right clicking and choosing "print" prints the first document, fails to close the adobe x window and sits there patiently untill it's manualy closed and then the next document prints  - repeat - loop.
    Have this happening on just about every windows xp machine in the office that I try it on and any and all versions of "Adobe X" that I care to install.
    would love a fix for this, reinstalling 9 manually on every PC would waste a day of my life.

  • Highlight and comments function in Adobe Reader 9

    Is it possible to activate the highlight and comment function in Adobe Reader 9. An online help line suggests that this is possible. Is this for a different version of Reader?

    It is possible, but it requires that the file be given certain rights in advance in Acrobat. With later versions these rights became obsolete and Reader can add highlights and sticky notes even without them.
