Edited PDF Does Not Retain Fill Data on iPhone

When I input data in the fill boxes on a form I created with Acrobat which has been sent to my iPhone, the text that was added in the fill forms does not stay on the document after emailing it to myself and opening it in my email preview. The data, however, will show up when I open it on my computer(mac) email preview.

You're experiencing a limitation of the built-in iOS PDF viewer which is used by apps like Mail and DropBox. It doesn't properly display filled in form data or annotations.
You MUST view the resulting file in Adobe Reader or Acrobat on Mac or PC, or on Adobe Reader for iOS or Android to see the data correctly.

  • Browser: Print to PDF does not retain hyperlinks

    Hi,
    I was wondering if someone can give me some guidance.
    I have several html pages that contain numerous hyperlinks throughout the page
    On each page there is a javascript print button (ie. onclick="window.print();returnfalse..........)
    Whenever a user chooses the option from the print dialog box to print the page to Adobe PDF,  the output (pdf) does not retain the hyperlinks.
    Is there a way, feature, or product that will allow external users to print to pdf and still have the hyperlinks work?

    Printing to PDF never includes interactive elements - it is what it says, a digital copy of a printed page. No links on a sheet of paper = no links on a PDF printout.
    To retain interactive content you must save the page as a PDF, for example using the Acrobat plugin for IE or Firefox.

  • Edited pdf does not display properly

    I scanned in doc to a .pdf. It displayed properly on iPad (iBooks). I added some text using preview. It did not display when reading it to iBooks. Thinking it was a layering issue, I "Flattened" the file with Adobe Acrobat Pro, and freaked it to iBooks. Still does not display the added text. Added text is displayed by Adobe Reader for iPad. How do I get the iBooks program to properly read an edited .PDF? Is it really necessary to print and rescan the .PDF each time? Can I add the text in IBooks?

    Stick with Adobe Reader. iBooks will not and cannot display form fields or edited text in a PDF as you have learned. You cannot add text in iBooks either. You can't change that. The built in mail app is also incapable of displaying edited PDF files. Adobe Reader is much more robust and feature rich than iBooks, which I'm sure you have already seen for yourself.
    iBooks pales in comparison as a useful PDF tool. i think that you will be much better off using Adobe Reader.

  • Edited PDF does not contain viewable text in an email.  Why?

    I am currently using Acrobat Pro 8.0 on a MacBook Pro.  I used to be able to edit PDF documents by adding text to them and sending them in an email.  Now that I have upgraded my OS to Mavericks, I can't read the edited text in the pdf.  Any suggestions?

  • PDF does not save filled out fields when using browser

    Hello! I have a couple PDFs that I've uploaded to my website for clients to fill out and download. I'm getting complaints that clients are filling out the form, saving it to their computer, but when re-opening the now saved form, none of the fields are filled out.
    Am I doing something wrong? I've provided the forms to be savable in the security functions, and I tested it myself after downloading the PDF and filling it out in the browser (as it automatically opens in browser), and saving to my PC, I re-open the PDF and it is empty of any of the fields I filled out.
    Please help! This is causing my clients to lose faith in me!
    Thank you!

    Which version of Acrobat are you using?
    Just to confirm, when you say "I've provided the forms to be savable in the security functions," did that mean you (using Acrobat XI as an example):
    File menu > Saved As Other... > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools (includes form fill-in & save)

  • N81 does not retain the correct date...

    My N81 got a very strange problem: it does not retain the correct date....
    Usually it's wrong by two days ago....!
    The S.O. Ver. is: 10.0.32 
    Thanks you and sorry for my english...! :-)

    hi there, have you checked that there is a firmware update for your model? v10 sounds like the original firmware for the N81. i would suggest checking on your PC via Nokia Software Updater for any firmware updates. the latest firmware version for the N81, unbranded or not, is v21.  
    If you found this or someone's comments helpful or like what that person has to say, please give some Kudos to their post!

  • DataGrid does not display XML data

    Hello, and thanks for reading this...
    I am having a problem displaying XMLList data in a DataGrid.
    The data is coming from a Tree control, which is receiving it
    from a database using HTTPService.
    The data is a list of "Job Orders" from a MySQL database,
    being formatted as XML by a PHP page.
    If it would be helpful to see the actual XML, a sample is
    here:
    http://www.anaheimwib.com/_login/get_all_orders_test2.php
    All is going well until I get to the DataGrid, which doesn't
    display the data, although I know it is there as I can see it in
    debug mode. I've checked the dataField property of the appropriate
    DataGrid column, and it appears correct.
    Following is a summary of the relevant code.
    ...An HTTPService named "get_all_job_orders" retrieves
    records from a MySQL database via PHP...
    ...Results are formatted as E4X:
    HTTPService resultFormat="e4x"
    ...An XMLListCollection's source property is set to the
    returned E4X XML results:
    ...The "order" node is what is being used as the top-level of
    the XML data.
    <mx:XMLListCollection id="jobOrdersReviewXMLList"
    source="{get_all_job_orders.lastResult.order}"/>
    ...The "jobOrdersReviewXMLList" collection is assigned to be
    the dataProvider property of a Tree list, using the @name syntax to
    display the nodes correctly, and a change event function is defined
    to add the records to a DataGrid on a separate Component for
    viewing the XML records:
    <mx:Tree dataProvider="{jobOrdersReviewXMLList}"
    labelField="@name"
    change="jobPosForm.addTreePositionsToDG(event)"/>
    ...Here is the relevant "jobPosForm" code (the Job Positions
    Form, a separate Component based on a Form) :
    ...A variable is declared:
    [Bindable]
    public var positionsArray:XMLList;
    ...The variable is initialized on CreationComplete event of
    the Form:
    positionsArray = new XMLList;
    ...The Tree's change event function is defined within the
    "jobPosForm" Component.
    ...Clicking on a Tree node fires the Change event.
    ...This passes an event object to the function.
    ...This event object contains the XML from the selected Tree
    node.
    ...The Tree node's XML data is passed into the positionsArray
    XMLList.
    ...This array is the dataProvider for the DataGrid, as you
    will see in the following block.
    public function addTreePositionsToDG(event:Event):void{
    this.positionsArray = selectedNode.positions.position;
    ...A datagrid has its dataProvider is bound to
    positionsArray.
    ...(I will only show one column defined here for brevity.)
    ...This column has its dataField property set to "POS_TITLE",
    a field in the returned XML record:
    <mx:DataGrid width="100%" variableRowHeight="true"
    height="75%" id="dgPositions"
    dataProvider="{positionsArray}" editable="false">
    <mx:columns>
    <mx:DataGridColumn width="25" headerText="Position Title"
    dataField="POS_TITLE"/>
    </mx:columns>
    </mx:DataGrid>
    In debug mode, I can examine the datagrid's dataProvider
    property, and see that the correct XML data from the Tree control
    is present. However, The datagrid does not display the data in any
    of its 6 columns.
    Does anyone have any advice?
    Thanks for your time.

    Hello again,
    I came up with a method of populating the DataGrid from the
    selected Item of a Tree Control which displays complex XML data and
    XML attributes. After the user clicks on a Tree branch, I call this
    function:
    public function addTreePositionsToDG(event:Event):void{
    //Retrieve all "position" nodes from tree.
    //Loop thru each Position.
    //Add Position data to the positionsArray Array Collection.
    //The DataGrid dataprovider is bound to this array, and will
    be updated.
    positionsArray = new ArrayCollection();
    var selectedNode:Object=event.target.selectedItem;//Contains
    entire branch.
    for each (var position:XML in
    selectedNode.positions.position){
    var posArray:Array = new Array();
    posArray.PK_POSITIONID = position.@PK_POSITIONID;
    posArray.FK_ORDERID = position.@FK_ORDERID;
    posArray.POS_TITLE = position.@POS_TITLE;
    posArray.NUM_YOUTH = position.@NUM_YOUTH;
    posArray.AGE_1617 = position.@AGE_1617;
    posArray.AGE_1821 = position.@AGE_1821;
    posArray.HOURS_WK = position.@HOURS_WK;
    posArray.WAGE_RANGE_FROM = position.@WAGE_RANGE_FROM;
    posArray.WAGE_RANGE_TO = position.@WAGE_RANGE_TO;
    posArray.JOB_DESCR = position.@JOB_DESCR;
    posArray.DES_SKILLS = position.@DES_SKILLS;
    positionsArray.addItem(posArray);
    So, I just had to manually go through the selected Tree node,
    copy each XML attribute into a simple Array, then ADD this Array to
    an ArrayCollection being used as the DataProvider for the DataGrid.
    It's not elegant, but it works and I don't have to use a Label
    Function, which was getting way too complicated. I still think that
    Flex should have an easier way of doing this. There probably is an
    easier way, but the Flex documentation doesn't provide an easy path
    to it.
    I want to thank you, Tracy, for the all the help. I checked
    out the examples you have at www.cflex.net and they are very
    helpful. I bookmarked the site and will be using it as a resource
    from now on.

  • Webi does not pick correct Data

    Hi Guys,
    I have a webi. The Universe for the Webi is based on  Bex Query. I see correct Data in Bex Query but when I create a webi report it does not pick correct data.
    I have checked following points already:-
    1] No Resstriction at Query Level
    2] No restriction at Universe Level
    3] No Filters/ Restriction at Webi Level.
    Can anyone suggest whats happening?
    Regards

    Hi Ray,
    It happens sometimes that data gets aggregated over all the dimension objects present in the 'Available Objects' section in webi.
    Try to pull only the characteristics present in the row section of the bex query say 'X' and measure in the column section of bex query say 'Y' into the results pane in the edit query window in webi.Then run the report and check.
    This will give you the idea about aggregation.
    Regards

  • In Adobe Pro XI when converting an excel file to a pdf, the pdf is not retaining the page size settings.  Has anyone found a fix for this?

    In Adobe Pro XI when converting an excel file to a pdf, the pdf is not retaining the page size settings.  Has anyone found a fix for this?

    It shouldn't print each page as a separate job and
    each tab has a different name, so, even if it did, it
    ought to give the printouts the name of the tabs.
    It doesn't print each page as a separate job unless the orientation is different - that's the bug. And the name of the job is taken from the name of the window, not the name of the tabs. That's how every application works, which, I think, is why Excel allows the specific selection or the active sheets to be printed.
    Still, that does sound like a plausible explanation.
    However, even if presented with multiple prints with
    the same name, the spooler should print each one!
    The spooler does print each one - you can watch the spooler process the multiple jobs. I think, though, that they are being overwritten since all the jobs have the name of the window as the job title. And since this happens after the Save Dialog is presented, there's really nothing the application can do. To Excel, it's one job, the multiple orientations don't matter; it's just that Apple doesn't handle it correctly.
    As a workaround, you can print the selections one at a time and give them unique names and then rejoin them in one PDF file.

  • Copy and Paste on Safari 5.0.2 does not retain formatting

    Hi there.
    I'm on Safari 5.0.2. and when I copy and paste something (in this case, on a message board--vBulletin, but it doesn't work on anything else) it does not retain the original formatting (for example--bold, italics, underline, etc.) If I copy something from Safari and paste it into another program, TextEdit for example, the formatting remains and works fine.
    This is extremely annoying. Anyone have any ideas?
    *If you're on Safari, try copying* and *pasting this sentence in a reply* --it will remove all the formatting for some reason. It will work in TextEdit, however. It's not just this message board software either...try it somewhere else too.
    Message was edited by: FINALBOSS

    Hi
    copying formatted text & pasting in Safari does retain the formatting, so long as the place you're pasting it supports varying fonts/styles.
    So copy/paste here, just shows as plain text.
    c/p to blogger.com in the 'compose' tab - works fine
    c/p to blogger in the 'html' tab - plain text
    same with textedit: paste from safari to textedit +in a plain text document+ -you get plain text.

  • Clean up old SID values from an InfoObject that does NOT have master data

    I have a characteristic infoobject that does NOT have Master Data but it has a SID table. I assume that it is used primarily for the F4 value help. Now we have changed some of our data for this infoobject in R3 so that some of the values in the SID table will never be used again. My problem is that these values are still displayed in the F4 value help. And because the old values are very similar to the new values some users mistakenly pick the old value and then the query results come back empty.
    FYI - The datasource that uses this infoobject as an attribute is extracted from R3 in a Full load each night. So there is no risk that the old values in the SID table will be needed in any Master Data/Cubes/DSOs/etc.
    Is there a way to delete the unwanted SIDs from this table /BIC/SXCSAOFREG? Or is there some way to make sure that the unwanted SIDs to not show up in the F4 value help?
    Thanks,
    Dave

    Hi David,
    Goto SE14 trans --> ENter the table name as  /BIC/SXCSAOFREG. Select the "Edit" radio button. Then Select "Delete Data" radion button & click on "Activate & adjust database". But be very careful NOT to click on Delete Database table(This will delete the physical database table!!!

    I am using CS6 and when I go to save an image for Web the image does not retain its quality. The first week I did this it worked just fine and now the images save very pixely.
    Here is a screenshot of my image on the artboard as I am editing it
    Here is a screenshot of the image as I'm trying to save it for Web
    As you can see, the image becomes pixely. I have tried to save it as every type of png and jpeg but nothing seems to work. I have no idea why it has started to do this. Please help!

    Change None to Art optimized then click apply(alteast in CS5 there was an apply, believe they removed that in CS6 as so many people missed that part).

  • Any idea what this errorr means? the data type of the reference does not match the data type of the variable

    I am using Veristand 2014, Scan Engine and EtherCat Custom Device.  I have not had this error before, but I was trying to deploy my System Definition File (run) to the Target (cRio 9024 with 6 modules) and it failed. It wouldn't even try to communicate with the target. I get the 'connection refused' error.  
    I created a new Veristand project
    I added the Scan Engine and EtherCat custom device.
    I changed the IP address and auto-detected my modules
    i noticed tat Veristand didn't find one of my modules that was there earlier. (this week)
     So, i went to NiMax to make sure software was installed and even reinstalled Scan Engine and Veristand just to make sure.
    Now, it finds the module, but when i go to deploy it getsto the last step of deploying the code to the target, and then it fails.
    Any thoughts?

    Can you deploy if you only have the two 9401 modules in the chassis (no other modules) and in the sysdef?  I meant to ask if you could attach your system definition file to the forum post so we can see it as well (sorry for the confusion).  
    Are you using any of the specialty configurations for the 9401 modules? (ex: counter, PWM, quadrature, etc)
    You will probably want to post this on the support page for the Scan Engine/EtherCAT Custom Device: https://decibel.ni.com/content/thread/8671  
    Custom devices aren't officially supported by NI, so technical questions and issues are handled on the above page.

  • "BP Category 1 does not fit the data in category 2"  "Replies Appreciated"

    Hi Gurus,
    When i am trying to create an "Individual Account" in UI, I am getting the error "BP Category 1 does not fit the data in category 2".
    If i try to create a "group" then it says "BP Category 3 does not fit the data in category 2".
    It allows me to create only "Corporate Account" i..e. Category 2.
    What should i do to create "Individual Account" and "Group". (Category1 & Category 3).
    Individual Account (Category 1) - "BP Category 1 does not fit the data in category 2".
    Corporate Account (Category 2) - Able to create only Corporate Account
    Group (Category 3) - "BP Category 3 does not fit the data in category 2".
    Thanks & Regards
    Rohan

    Hi Rohan,
    Hope this SAP Note : 1232459, Solves your problem.
    You might have created a custom configuration for corporate accounts.
    Unfortunately in case of custom configurations exist, they are selected with higher priority.
    So in this case the configuration for corporate accounts is also shown for individual accounts,
    this causes error.
    In order to solve this problem, create a custom configuration for individual account also,
    i.e for view BP_HEAD/AccountDetails. Object type BP_ACCOUNT and object subtype INDIVIDUAL.
    Please make sure that the custom configuration includes the fields firstname and lastname for
    persons instead of name1 and name2 which are only allowed for corporate accounts.
    I hope the above information resolves your problem.
    Best Regards

    Hi Guys,
    When I am trying to save the data on the Bupacreate page it gives the error as follows.

    Can anyone suggest what is causing this error to happen and how this error can be corrected.
    thanks & regards
    Sandy

    Hi,
    This error usually occrus when you try to set field in without specifing bptype ie person, group etc. In our scenario we were trying to set field in Person which was not present in group. but since do_prepare_output method is same in both, that feild was getting set for group as well. When we placed restriction this error got removed.
