  • Making an editable PDF Form non-editable (a shortcut)

    How to make a PDF form non-editable or locked.
    For those who aren't script-savvy, I believe this may be a little shortcut to editing a PDF form and then saving and sending it as a non-editable or locked PDF.
    This is what I have written out for my client, whom I provided an editable PDF Form, so they could edit the PDF and then send it out to their own respective clients as a NON-editable PDF.
    Instructions as follows:
    How to save your PDF Form into a separate non-editable PDF to send to your client: (Using Adobe Acrobat Professional)
    Step 1. Fill out the original PDF Form
    Step 2. Once finished, go to “File” menu and click “Save a Copy” - title the file appropriately and save it to the desktop.
    Step 3. Close the editable PDF document and do not save it (Saving it will save over the original file). Now open up the PDF you’ve just saved to
                        the desktop (you’ll now take the steps to make this file only non-editable).
    Step 4. In the top menu, go to “Advanced” then select in that drop down menu “Security” then “Show Security Properties” - a ‘Document Properties’ window will now appear.
    Step 5. From this new window, select the “Security” Menu.  Set your ‘Security Method’ to ‘Password Security’.
    Step 6. A new window will appear named ‘Password Security Settings’. In this menu, tick the box that says “Restrict Editing & Printing of the document”
                you’ll need to a) set a password for it,  and  b) In the ‘Printing Allowed’ drop down box, select ‘high resolution’   and if you want to, tick the
                box that says ‘allow the copying of text, images and other content’
    Step 7. Click OK and Save the document. Now it’s not editable unless you have the password.
    Note: If you happen to want to edit the PDF at a later date, you can open the file and in the ‘Security settings’ menu on the left hand side
    (the menu is represented as a little gold lock) click ‘Permission Details’ then ‘Change Settings’ to revert everything back to an editable document
    - repeat the above steps to make it a locked document again.   

    Thanks for your suggestions. You should also consider flattening a form if you want a non-editable copy; because the permissions password is not always respected by third-party PDF applications (for some people the form will remain editable, depending on what software they're using).
    Flattening a form can be done in several ways in Acrobat: you can run a script - this.flattenPages() - or print the PDF back to PDF (aka refrying), or use the Sanitize tool in Acrobat X. It also strips out hidden content associated with the form (button actions, field calculation scripts, etc.) so provides additional data protection. Sanitize is the heavy-duty option of the three; it will remove all hidden content, leaving only what you see on the page.
    One correction to your workflow - the Save a Copy menu item is not intended for creating a duplicate of a normal form, it's only available if the  form has been rights-extended and it serves to remove the extension certificate from the PDF (allowing full editing in Acrobat again). As your client is working in Acrobat they don't need a rights-extended version in the first place, and working with a normal form will make things simpler for them. In Acrobat X Pro you could create them a custom Action which automatically flattens the file and saves a duplicate, so they don't accidentally overwrite the original.

  • Can't edit PDF

    I just signed in for adobe and I still can't edit PDF's

    Sounds as if you took up a subscription to Acrobat XI.
    That, by itself does not put Acrobat XI on your computer.
    Yes -- you have to download and install Acrobat XI on a desktop or laptop or smaller (but "real" - e.g., ultrabook, netbook, MS Slate Pro 3, etc) computer.
    No "devices" eh.
    Once you have the actual application installed you can launch it for use.
    Good to do -- Fetch the Help file and study it.  Use the available Acrobat tutorials.
    Acrobat is a "18-wheeler" so the gearng ain't your 3-speed bicycle shift.
    Acrobat Learn & Support

    The Adobe Press "Classroom in a Book" for Acrobat is available:   
    -- | as a hardcover book with work files on DVD 
    --| a PDF  
    --| a Kindle book
    So, some resources to get you started (once you have downloaded and installed the application).

  • Is Adobe Reader Touch (using windows 8) supposed to be able to edit pdfs, or just view them? Please help!

    Hi Community,
    I cannot edit pdfs using Adobe Reader Touch. Going out of my mind. My Windows 8 laptop can barely save them, never mind edit them.
    Or is Adobe Reader Touch only able to read them? Is it a cheaper version installed in the laptop to keep the laptop prices down?
    If it can edit pdfs please tell me how!!
    Thanks for any advice.

    Hello gregorhughes,
    Thanks for using Adobe Reader Touch.
    Adobe Reader Touch App is a PDF viewer app with editing functionality restricted to saving the PDF after commenting or PDF forms filling.
    Commenting includes:
        > Adding Sticky Note
        > Highlighting text
        > Strikethrough text
        > Underline text
    For more PDF editing and lot more value added features for PDF related workflows, you can try Acrobat desktop version. Try at this link for Acrobat Pro XI or Acrobat Standard
    Thanks,

  • Edit pdf files with surface touch

    how do i edit pdf files with surface win

    Adobe Reader products (Reader XI desktop, Reader for iOS, Reader for Android, Reader Touch for Windows 8, etc.) are free and mainly focused on PDF viewing capabilities.
    If you actually want to modify text or images in PDF or create PDFs from Word or Excel files, etc., you need Acrobat XI Pro or Standard (paid product).
    The following page shows the product comparison for Acrobat/Reader XI for desktop.
    http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/product-comparison.html
    If you have a Surface Pro (running the Windows 8 operating system), you can run Acrobat XI Pro or Standard in the desktop environment for editing PDFs.  However, if you have a Surface RT (running the Windows RT operating system), you are not able to run any of the Acrobat desktop products (including Reader XI) because they are not compatible with the Windows RT operating system.

  • Editable pdf?

    can I make an editable pdf of a pagemaker document?
    how do i do it?

    To edit a PDF, or turn a document into a fillable PDF form
    you would require a fully licensed copy of Acrobat 9 (Standard /
    Pro / Pro Extended). Acrobat.com does not provide this
    functionality.

  • How to create multiple editable PDFs from data merged Indesign file

    Hi
    This is quite complicated but I'm hoping someone can help me and hoping I can explain it too!
    I am working on a project for a client. She wants to send 150 people a 6 page PDF with fields to complete and return to her.
    She has an Excel spreadsheet with some of the fields completed already so these will be Data Merged into InDesign CS6.
    The short version of the question goes like this:
    Can you automate the process so that once all the data is in the InDesign file, it can then create a PDF every 6 pages all in one go?
    For those still interested, the long version of the question goes like this:
    I have created 3 pages in InDesign with fields to complete and used the 'Data Merge' facility to add the Excel info.
    I have created 3 more pages with blank fields to fill in.
    Then I have made all fields editable using the 'Buttons and Forms' facility in the Interactive menu.
    Then I have created an interactive PDF. Then I have opened that PDF in Adobe Acrobat X Pro and saved it as 'Reader Extended PDF' and 'Enable Additional Features'
    I now have an Editable PDF with half the fields filled in and half blank to be filled in and this can be saved and returned.
    Now, this would be great if it was only one or two. But I need to create 150 different versions and this is just for the Pilot study. If all goes well, this will go to 5,000 people and I can't be creating 5,000 seperate PDFS!!
    At this stage, I am just focussing on the 150. So again, going back to the original question, is there a script that could be written either to break up the 1st PDF every 6 pages into 150 different PDFS? Is there even a way of extending that script to Save as Reader Extended etc? Is there a simple idea that I'm missing? Are there any ways to do this? I can use 'Created Merged Documents' to make 150 x 6 pages in Indesign so can anything be done from there?
    Any advice greatly appreciated
    Thanks

  • Unable to edit PDF files in Adobe Acrobat DC

    i am unable to edit a file in adobe acrobat dc i have tried with multiple files and everytime i click edit pdf it get a pop up that says adobe acrobat dc has encountered an unknown error however i have been able to edit a few pdf's i tried everything from re downloading a new file to saving it in acrobat reader and nothing is working please help

    Hi imadb,
    Since you have the Acrobat Pro DC 30-day trial, please try opening that to edit your PDFs (rather than opening them in Reader, and clicking the Edit PDF button).
    If you search your computer, you should have both an Adobe Acrobat Reader DC and and Adobe Acrobat Pro application. They can coexist, but it does make things a little confusing.
    If you want to evaluate  Acrobat Pro DC, it's best that you open it directly. That way, you can get the real "lay of the land" with Acrobat before making any purchase decisions.
    Best,
    Sara

  • Acrobat 9.5 - use Touchup text Tool to edit PDF. Updates do not display. But, if I "save as" Word doc, the edits appear in Word. This feature worked in earlier versions of 9.x patches.

    Acrobat 9.5 - use Touchup text Tool to edit PDF. Updates do not display. But, if I "save as" Word doc, the edits appear in Word. This feature worked in earlier versions of 9.x patches.

    I have a suspicion you're working with a scanned document that has had OCR run to recognize the text. The recognized text may be stored on an invisible layer above the image of the text, and that is what you're toucing up. It's invisible, so you don't see it, but retains the changes, so exporting produces the new edits.
    When you run OCR to recognize scanned text,, try using the ClearScan option, instead of Searchable Text. See this help page on Acrobat (this is for version X, but still applies):

  • Standard 9, missing EDIT PDF PORTFOLIO side bar after recent update

    I can't find the place to enable the view of the "EDIT PDF PORTFOLIO" sidebar.
    I've always had it, but Acrobat updated recently, and it's gone. 

    That can't be correct.
    I've had the function all along until a recent update.
    In addition, I currently can still create and manipulate files within a portfolio. 
    I lost a functionality of changing order of contents, and need that sidebar to change the layout.

    I just started a free trial of the Adobe XI product that allows me to create an editable PDF. I'm done creating the form and ready to export it. When I click Export PDF from the File menu, it says Adobe encountered an unexpected error. What am I doing wrong?

    Good to know  — there is no such application as "Adobe XI".
    "Adobe" is the name of the company.
    "XI" is indicative of the use of either Acrobat XI or Reader XI.
    Neither Acrobat XI Pro (for which Adobe provides a free, fully functional 30-day trial) nor Adobe Reader XI (the free to download and use PDF viewer that Adobe provides) have  an "Export PDF" entry under "File".
    "Export PDF" only is present in Adobe Reader XI over on the right on the "Tools" panel.
    The "Tools" panel provides a way for a user of Adobe Reader XI to connect to various By Subscription online services (gotta pay eh).
    Export PDF is one of these. A subscription lets you send a PDF file to the online internet service (aka "cloud" service). The service then exports to a supported file format (Word / Excel / ...) and the user selects / directs where the output file is to be saved on the user's local machine.
    Of course to use any of the online subscription services one must have an active (paid up in full) subscription to the service.
    So ---- As described the puzzle pieces don't fit eh.
    What specific Adobe (the company) applications are you using?
    Acrobat XI Pro? Adobe Reader XI? Both? 
    Be well....

  • Can you save editable pdf as read only

    I have a client who's using an editable pdf that I set up in the full version of Acrobat 8.0. They would like to edit the doc in Acrobat Reader and then do a save as and make the doc "read Only" so that their viewers can't edit the document after they have made their changes. Is this possible or am I the only one who can make it readable or not readable with the full version of Acrobat?

    You can do it. They can't.
    If this is something they are going to do a lot of, recommend that they purchase at least Acrobat Standard if not Pro.

  • Clicking "Edit PDF form" stops Adobe Acrobat Pro 11 from working. [FIXED]

    As the title says, whenever I click "Edit PDF form" in Acrobat Pro 11, it displays the message "Adobe Acrobat has stopped working" and then when I click OK it closes.
    It is a fresh install.  I tried reinstalling, by removing it first, i tried a repair, I also tried using Revo Uninstaller to clean up anything that was left after an uninstall, and still no joy.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    It is running on Windows 8.1 Update (x64), and the version number for Acrobat Pro is 11.0.10.
    Thanks!
    **Update**
    While I was writing this I had an epiphany, so I checked the Windows application logs which logged the following error every time Acrobat crashed...
    Faulting application name: Acrobat.exe, version: 11.0.10.32, time stamp: 0x547e97af
    Faulting module name: nvd3dum.dll, version: 9.18.13.4121, time stamp: 0x5474d740
    Exception code: 0xc0000005
    which lists nvd3dum.dll as the culprit.  This has something to do with my Nvidia graphics card or drivers (NVIDIA Quadro FX 4600)
    So after a little research I discovered a little registry tweak which "specifies the number of seconds that the GPU can delay the preempt request from the GPU scheduler. This is effectively the timeout threshold. The default value is 2 seconds." (Quoted from MSDN)
    So I added the REG_DWORD value TdrDelay to the key path HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\GraphicsDrivers, and changed the value to 8.  After rebooting this seemed to have solved the issue I was having.
    Here's a screenshot...
    Hope this helps someone!

    We created forms in acrobat 9 pro and now with XI pro cannot edit them.  Error message states that livecycle designer is required to edit forms previously created in acrobat.  Called tech support and waited for over an hour before being told that another product needed to be purchased for $300 more than the upgrade cost for acrobat pro XI!!!  From the XI FAQ - The web site states:
    The following customers are eligible for a free upgrade:
    Customers who purchased a prior license to Acrobat and have purchased an upgrade to Acrobat XI Pro
    Customers who have an Adobe Maintenance and Support contract or purchased Upgrade Plan eligible for an Acrobat XI Pro upgrade
    Active Creative Cloud Complete members whose memberships started before October 15, 2012
    The one-time LiveCycle Designer upgrade is available in English, French, German, or Japanese. Eligible customers can choose which language they would like to receive. Visit the Customer Support Portal to request an upgrade.
    After entering in the needed info on the support portal was told that adobe will Not honor the sales rep & web site which both said we are eligible for the free upgrade.  We asked for a full refund and will not longer be using any new adobe products.  We went back to 9 pro forms work fine and adobe lost $.  Nice work adobe - lie to customers and then act surprised that the customers want their $ back!  They told us to just toss their software DVD in the trash where IT belongs, so we did!
    Cheers,
    Actiondan
