Editing a Form Central PDF in Acrobat Pro

I've created a multi-page form with F Central and need it to be editable in Acrobat Pro.  "Save a Copy" in Acrobat Pro does not remove the security and thusly the form cannot be edited.  Was I misled by Acrobat marketing and now I am stuck with a form that I can ONLY edit using Forms Central?   Can anyone help?

I don't know if I was very clear.  I want the users to fill out a form and click a button when they are done.   Then I want the result of clicking the button to be for the form to print to Adobe PDF first followed by emailing to me.  Right now the way I set the button up (below), I receive the actual form via email. 
"Actions" tab,
"Mouse up,
    Execute a menu item
        File>Save as>PDF...
    Submit a form"
I want a non editable printed/ refried version AKA "print to Adobe PDF" on the menu items sent to me instead of the actual form.  I have searched all over but can't find if this is possible.

  • AdobeForms Central - Editing AdobeForms Central PDFs in Acrobat Pro XI, Electronic Signatures

    I have an adobe forms central account, adobe acrobat pro installed on my mac. And I want to create an adobe forms central PDF form that I can edit in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI and also create an electronic signature. How should I go about this?

    If you created it in Forms Central, you have to edit it there. I believe Forms Central is similar to LiveCycle Designer in that the form created is no longer able to be edited in Acrobat. I might be wrong, but that is my understanding. You add the submit button in Forms Central. Within Acrobat, you should be able to go to the forms menu and Manage Data to save the data to an Excel file. Others better with forms should be by to clarify things, but this should get you started. In the future you might find it better to post a forms question in the forms discussions.

  • Editing text in a pdf in Acrobat pro

    The text lines are broken when I try to move and difficult to reallign.
    Also my loopy cursive font keeps getting snipped by the boxes .  Looks bad!

    Some guidance when it comes to PDF editing:
    http://acrobatusers.com/startingpoints/how-to-edit-a-pdf 
    Bottom line - PDF (the file format / technology that is described and defined by the ISO Standard, ISO 32000-1) does not support word processor like "editing".
    Minor textual content *touchups* are possible. Acrobat facilitates making these Minor Touchups.
    To "edit" one must return to the authoring file, edit there and then output the new PDF. When you don't have the authoring file you can export the textual content to Word.
    After cleanup you'd do 'edits' and then output that "fresh" PDF.
    Be well...

    The steps I’m following are described below:
    1.    Insert electronic signatures
    - In Tasks, click on “Add New Field -> Digital Signature”.
    - Move the square to the place where you want to put the signature and click.
    - Fill in the “field name” with the name of the person who has to sign here.
    - When it is done, click anywhere on the screen.
    - In Tasks, click on “Close Form editing”.
    - Go to menu “File -> Save as -> Reader Extended PDF ->Enable additional features”, click on “Save now”.
    - Fill in the file name and click on “Save”.
    2.    Save the Form
    - In Tasks, click on “Close Form editing”.
    - Go to menu “File -> Save as -> Reader Extended PDF ->Enable additional features”, click on “Save now”.
    - Fill in the file name and click on “Save”.
    I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro 10.0.0 on a W7 workstation
    Here's a screenshot of the problem.
    Thanks a lot.

  • 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.

  • How to save an edited PDF in Acrobat Pro without any compression

    Hi,
    I just edited an existing PDF in Acrobat Pro 9 - actually I inserted some high resolution images in TIFF via the Touchup tool.
    What do I have to do to save it without any compression of the TIFFs - I tried a lot, but the outcome is always compressed, showing artifacts.
    Thanks

    First, editing PDFs is really only for minor fixups. There is generally no word wrap or such when doing such editing and often then seem to go downhill fast. To edit text, you have to have the font available. If the file was scanned and the OCR applied was searchable text, the only option to edit what is displayed is with a graphics editor, typically PhotoShop. PhotoShop allows Acrobat to have edited graphics and then be reinserted in the file (I don't do it, so can't give details). ClearScan replaces what is seen on screen in the graphic with the text. In that case, you see all of the text and the corresponding errors (often many). You may want to load a graphic (bitmap) with text showing or use a scan and try the various versions of OCR to see what I am talking about. That may help you see the options. Searchable PDFs is more useful if an original is critical, such as in the legal profession.

  • Does Forms Central come with Acrobat XI Pro for Educators or must it be purchased separately?

    I keep getting conflicting messages.
    Does Forms Central come with Acrobat XI Pro for Educators or must it be purchased separately?

    FormsCentral is an online subscription service.
    It is not a built-in feature of Acrobat XI.
    With that said Acrobat XI Pro does have a built-in "link" to FormsCentral and this provides an Acrobat centric user interface.
    The actual "real deal" is online (the "web" / "cloud" - whatever).
    For that you'd visit:
    https://www.acrobat.com/en_us/products/formscentral.html 
    About the subscription:
    "The FormsCentral 30 Day Opt-Out trial gives you the option to try the Basic plan features for USD $0.99.
    Simply add to cart and enter a credit card to set up your account.
    After you place your order you will have 30 days to use FormsCentral.
    At the end of the 30 day trial period your card will automatically be charged the standard monthly subscription rate of $14.99 so that you can continue to create, distribute, and manage your online forms and surveys.
    Subscriptions cancelled within the first 30 days will be refunded in full.

  • 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

  • How to embed a mp4 video into a pdf with acrobat pro XI?

    I'm  trying to embed a mp4 video into a pdf using Acrobat Pro XI.  When I try to play the video, all I see is a black box. The video is H.264 codec. I've tried on a PC and Mac and get the same results.

    Video playback in the Acrobat Family uses Flash Player, so if it works in FP (loaded via an HTML page) then it should work in your PDF. First suggestion is to use the free MediaInfo tool to check exactly what the internal structure reports as.

  • Please 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.
