Enable User Rights In Adobe Reader using Acrobat X

Hello,
I just upgraded to Acrobat X Pro from Acrobat Pro 9 and I'm still getting familiar with it. I need to Enable User Rights In Adobe Reader but I noticed that the tool bar does not have the "Advanced" option where Acrobat Pro 9 has it.
Can you please tell me how to go about it.
Thank you much!!!

How do you remove User Rights from a documnet in Acrobat X? I can't edit my Javascript in Acrobat X and I believe thi is the reason why. Thanks

Enable User Rights In Adobe Reader is greyed out in Adobe 8

I want the ability to save my fillable forms. The user guide tells me to goto Advanced > Enable User Rights In Adobe Reader.
That option is greyed out in my Adobe Acrobat. Can't figure out why. Need some pointers.

In that case you will have to start over and use the form fields in Acrobat, not Designer. I do not use Designer, so I can not say if you have just missed it or not. I am sure others will stop by and say if it is available in Designer. Bill

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.

How to enable forms extenstion for adobe reader using Acrobat SDK?

Adobe acrobat GUI tool enables PDF forms designers to extend the use of Adobe Reader and allow the end user to save the PDF form locally using the Reader.
Is it possible to do the same kind of fuctionality at run time on the server using Acrobat SDK?.
We are creating several PDF Form on the server, is there any way we can use Acrobat SDK to enable form's extenstions programatically on the server after the PDF is created.
If Yes How? any code example?

Not using the Acrobat SDK, no.
However, Adobe sells the LiveCycle Reader Extensions Server that can be
used on a server for exactly this purpose.

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

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
Paul

OK, here you go.

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,
Girish

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?

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 8 Form - "This Operation Not Permitted" error when enable user rights and open Reader X

I have a form which is causing me fits. It was created from an existing PDF form to which I added data fields using LifeCyele Designer.
When I enable user rights to the document and try to open it in either Adobe Reader X or Acrobat 8 Pro I get the message "This operation is not permitted" twice. Once I get rid of the messages the form works fine.
Is there a way to upload the form to this forum for someone to look at it?
With my limited knowledge, I did try to investigate embeded font issues and hidden object issues. But after much work I've not gotten much closer to a resolution.
Best,
David

You cannot upload the file to the forum, but you can use Acrobat.com or Dropbox if you have an account. If you ha e no other options I'd be happy to take a look: acroscript at gmail dot com

Enable User Rights in Adobe: how to always have that on?

I finally figured out why most PC users were not able to save any of the fields they filled out in my PDFs: I didn't know about the user rights feature.
Is there a way to always "Enable User Rights in Reader" to be turned on, so I don't have to remember to go the Advanced menu and select "Enable User Rights In Acrobat Reader" ?
Many thanks!

> It took years, and years, and years of beging and pleading. And Adobe finally threw us a Bone.
Yes. And then poisioned it with this ridiculous and undecipherable license limitation.
> ...you would presumably know which users sent you a PDF that you enabled with Acrobat.
The mumbo-jumbo seems to assume the use of saveable forms is always for data collection, sent back to the form's creator. That is the use of
least interest to me.
For me, it's all about creating a design-intensive document
once (a placement ad or a marketing flyer or a spec sheet), adding a few simple boiler-plate fields to it for contact information, and sending it to my client, who then sends it to his dealers. Each dealer can then edit the contact info, save it, have it printed or placed in a newspaper, use it for trade show hand-outs.
How is the creator of such a document supposed to police the 500 "uses" limit? Who is liable when that limit is exceeded? What constitutes a single "use"? (I only used the file once. The client only used the file once. Each Dealer will
edit the form content once, but may have it printed in 501 local newspapers.)
The terms are unintelligible and probably unenforceable. This confusion has existed ever since Adobe finally threw the bone. The stupid paranoia poison just needs to be removed.

Where is located "Advanced/extended features in Adobe Reader" in Acrobat XI?

When you create a form and you want the user to fill it and save it with the filled data, you have to select in Acrobat Pro the menu option "Advanced/extended features in Adobe Reader".
But in Acrobat XI There is no "Advanced" menu and I can't find "Extended features in Adobe Reader" anywhere.
How the hell is it done with Acrobat XI?

I'm not sure. This one in particular has changed to some extent every time since it was first available with Acrobat 8:
For future reference:
A7: Comments > Enable for Commenting and Analysis in Adobe Reader
A7: Tools > Typewriter > Enable Typewriter tool in Adobe Reader
A8: Advanced > Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader
A9: Advanced > Extend Features in Adobe Reader
A10: File > Save As > Reader Extended PDF > Enable Additional Features
A11: File > Save as Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools (includes form fill-in & save)

Upgrading to Acrobat Pro XI / Adobe Reader XI and enabling user rights

My company is a little behind on software updates and I'm going to ask for Adobe Reader XI to pushed out company wide since allows the user to save a filled-in PDF form.
Right now I'm using Acrobat Pro X, and suspect I will need to upgrade as well.
My questions are:
With the new-found ability of Reader to finally be able to save a filled in form, how does this effect the "enabling user rights" scenario?
Is it needed if the entire company is using Adobe Reader XI?
I did a test in Adobe Reader XI, and sure enough, I was able to save a filled-in form...BUT, I could not digitally sign the form.
Is this where the enabling user rights is still mandatory?
Or is this because the form was designed in Acrobat Pro X?
Does Acrobat Pro XI work around this?
I know I don't need to upgrade to Acrobat Pro XI to continue making forms, but should I?
Thanks for your feed back, and I look forward to reading your replies

Thank you, George, for the prompt reply!
I suspected as much, but couldn't find a clear cut answer in my searches.
The tab order update alone has convinced me its worth pushing for the new Acrobat Pro XI.
The update to Adobe Reader XI will make many of our forms easier to get into the digital workflow, and I'm looking forward to getting use further away from a paper-based system

Enable 3D Measuring for Adobe Reader in PDF saved by Acrobat Pro Ext plugin

Hello,
I'm developing a plugin for Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended to embed a 3D object in a PDF.
I would like to enable Adobe Reader users to measure the 3D object on the saved file,
like you can do with the menu "Advanced"->"Extend Features in Adobe Reader" in Acrobat Pro Ext.
Is it possible to do that with the SDK without user interaction?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks, I read something about that LiveCycle, but I don't understand how I should use it...
I'm developing a plugin for Adobe Acrobat and I would like to save the file with the 3D measuring enabled, without the user interaction.
Is the LiveCycle usable within an Acrobat plugin?

Did you do that: launch the standalone Reader (not the browser plugin) and accept the EULA?
