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.

Editing a PDF with Acrobat

My company has quite a few PDF's that they use as standards for legal agreements and such and we are going through a name change within the company. They are having me edit and change all of our PDF's to reflect the new name and also doing a lot of other changes. I know you're not supposed to really edit a PDF after the fact but they have hundreds upon hundreds of data fields that link to similar fields and some autopopulate etc so recreating the PDF would proabably take longer than editing it.
The problem I am running into is often I edit one of the text fields and it changes the formatting for the entire page and screws everything up. Is there a good way to edit text other than using the text editors in Acrobat and without having to recreate the entire document?

It's been a long time since I've used Acrobat 7 Pro but I have used Acrobat 8 Professional.
The key thing is to choose the correct tool. You're looking for the Touchup Text tool, which is probably on the Advanced Editing toolbar. You can probably open up that toolbar by choosing View > Toolbars > Advanced Editing. With that tool selected, drag through the sentence to be deleted. Right-click (Control-click) on the selected text and press Delete.

Filling in fields                               Allowed
Any ideas?
Thanks,

Hi Bryan,
I'm afraid you're in the wrong forum! This one is for acrobat.com, which is different from Acrobat (I know, very confusing). Here's the link to the forum you're looking for:

Good luck, and I hope the issue gets resolved over there.

Is there a way to edit a PDF with a full blown version of Adobe 5.0

Is there a way to edit a PDF with Acrobat 5

If it is a form, then there should be fillable fields that change to an I-bar as you move the hand over the field. If the hand does not change, then it is not technically a form -- only looks like one. You can use the form tool in AA5 to add fields to complete, use the typewriter tool (or it is some other name in AA5), or select the text touch up tool and hold down the ctrl key as you place the cursor to create a new text box.

Bulk convert text to PDF with Acrobat

Hi. When I convert a text file to PDF with Acrobat X Pro the character spacing in the resulting file is incorrect. The columns of numbers which do correctly line up in the text file, do not line up correctly in the PDF file. I adjust the settings for the conversion in the CREATE PDF FROM WEB PAGE box and I choose a fixed-width font. If I use Adobe PDF Converter (the printer driver) the result is perfect. If I open the text file with Microsoft Word and then convert it to PDF with PDFMaker, it is also perfect. I want to use Acrobat so that I can bulk convert my 300 text files to PDF. Can you please help as I have tried everything? Thank you. Paul Pontikis (Deakin University)

Thank you for responding LoriAUC. I have 300 (*.txt) files that I only ever open with Notepad. I don't every open them in a web browser. I want to bulk convert them to PDF. The orientation of the resulting PDFs must be landscape. It appears that the only way to select LANDSCAPE in Acrobat is to adjust the settings in the CREATE PDF FROM WEB PAGE box. It seems that Acrobat uses its HTML Conversion Engine to convert text files to PDF. When I do this and then bulk convert them using Bulk Convert Files to PDF, the orientation is correct, that is, landscape instead of the default portrait setting, however the character spacing is imprecise and the columns of data are wavy.

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

Can't print to pdf with Acrobat 7.1.0 in Vista

I am unable to print to pdf with Acrobat 7.1.0 in Windows Vista. I used to be able to, now all of a sudden that functionality is gone. I haven't knowingly done any upgrades since the last time I successfully printed to pdf, but I do have autoupdates enabled, so I can't say what Microsoft may have been up to recently. When printing to pdf from Internet Explorer 7, the window simply closes. A printer icon shows up in the system tray but registers 0 print jobs and soon disappears. When printing to pdf from Word (2003), Word crashes with a series of message boxes saying something about attempting recovery. Any suggestions?

AcroTray is running. Thanks for asking that question, as this is one thing that I have disabled on computers running XP, since disabling it in XP doesn't adversely affect my limited use of Acrobat in any way. I have not disabled it with Vista. I tried printing to file, and that also caused the window to close. I happened to have a second IE7 window open when attempting to print to file, and it did not close, so it only affects the active window. I don't know if that helps at all; when a program crashes, I typically observe it take with it all open windows associated with that program, so the fact that this is only closing the active window seems potentially useful to me in my ignorance of what is the root cause.

How to convert large Word 2007 doc (1200 KB) to PDF with Acrobat 9 Standard

I'm trying to convert a large Word 2007 document to PDF with Acrobat 9 Standard. It gets as far as 58% and then says it is unable to complete the conversion. How can I fix this?

The file you are working on is really not that large. There probably is a problem on a certain page of the document. Break the document in half. Try to create a pdf file from each half. Hopefully, one half prints properly and one-half does not. Take the half that does not break it in half. Try to convert each half into a pdf, etc...
Eventually, you will find which page has a problem. Most likely there is a graphic or a font used on that page that has problem. Most likely a graphic. That graphic will need to be recreated.

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.

How do you convert an Autocad drawing into a pdf with Acrobat X Standard?

How do you convert an Autocad drawing into a pdf with Acrobat X Standard?

Something to try -
Having installed Acrobat Standard you have the Adobe PDF virtual printer installed.
From your authoring application do a "file-print" and select the Adobe PDF printer rather than the attached local or network printer / plotter.

FF 19 for Mac. changed preferences to open PDFs with Acrobat Reader. Now when I click on a pdf link, an about:blank FF window opens (pdf then opens)

The change in preferences opens the pdf appropriately with Acrobat Reader, as desired, but before it does, FF opens a brand new blank window (about:blank). How can that action be stopped?

Yes, I mean the eternal application.
Ctrl-click does open the dialog, but that does not cause new/blank FF window to show up.....however shift-click opens the new/blank window, then opens another FF window with a "New Tab" heading, then opens the pdf with Acrobat Reader.....
If open the dialog and select "open in new tab" (open in Acrobat Reader is not an option), a new tab is opened, and the the pdf come up in Reader (without opening a new FF window). In earlier FF, it just opened directly in Reader (or acrobat) without opening a new tab or window.
Thanks

Accessing PDF with Acrobat viewer javabean

I accessed a PDF Document with the Acrobat Viewer JavaBean and its totally working fine as given in :https://today.java.net/pub/a/today/2005/10/20/accessing-pdf-with-acrobat-viewer-javabean.h tml
But I also wanted markup/annotations features in the same acrobat viewer. Is there a way to implement these features? The api given above in the link doesn't seem to provide all the updated features of acrobat. Any kind of help is appreciated.
Thanks !

Verify if you have the jar containing com/apple/mrj/MRJAboutHandler in your class path.
It think it's called [MRJToolkitStubs-1.0.jar|http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/pub/mirrors/maven/mrj/jars/MRJToolkitStubs-1.0.jar]

Cannot edit PDFs with Acrobat 9.5.4

I have over the last year been receiving PDF files from a lawfirm in NY which have no security on them, yet I cannot edit them. All edit fuctions are greyed out. The solution thus far has been to edit them using PDF Converter Professional, but I would really like to know why I can't edit them in Acrobat. Under Advanced on the PDF it says PDF Producer: Acrobat Distiller 9.4.6, PDF Version 1.4. There is also something called Application which is PScript5.dll Version 5.2.2

This screen shot represents having printed to Adobe PDF Printer, which would not be uncommon. To my understanding PDF Printer writes postscript and calls up Distiller in the background, hence Producer > Acrobat Distiller - Application > PScript5.dll. They have Acrobat 9, not quite fully updated, hance 9.4.6. PDF Version 1.4 is common; I write with quality options set to press quality which produces the same.
Is your Security tab actually as shown?
