Enabling Usage Rights for End User with Reader

When I "Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader," utilizing Adobe
Acrobat Pro 9, which functions are restricted for the end user?
Specifically, if one cell property in Acrobat has a
"Calculate" function, will the calculation perform properly in
Adobe Reader 9 for the end user?

Thank you for your posting. These forums are specific to the
Acrobat.com website and it's set of hosted services, and do not
cover the Acrobat family of desktop products. Please visit the
following forums for any questions related to the Acrobat family of
desktop products:
http://www.adobeforums.com/cgi-bin/webx/.3bbeda8b/
Note: Once Reader enabled certain functions like editing a
PDF,inserting or deleting the pages will be restricted at end user
part.Apart from this "Calculate" function will support both Acrobat
as well as Reader application.

  • 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.

    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?  

  • Batch processing for Enabling Usage Rights for Reader

    Hello,
    We have a lot of documents that we are converting to fillable pdfs using Acorbat 9 which will then be sent out via email to be filled by users. Since there are 50-100 different files, is there a way to use Batch Processing to enable usage rights to Reader for all those documents? Any help or advice is appreciated.
    Thank you,
    Sam

    There's no way with Acrobat. You can with Adobe's LiveCycle Reader Extensions product, but it's likely not worth it for just this.

  • Adobe Pro X  - Extended Rights for End Users (saving PDF)

    Hi - can you tell me if there is a way (using Adobe Pro X) to send a extended form fillable PDF so that and end-user with only Reader can save the PDF and later go back in to make additional edits? Right now I have a form that I have sent out that the end-users can save locally using Reader (one-time), but once opened again, they are unable to perform further edits to the document. Any help will be appreciated!!!
    The message the end user now receives is:
    "This document contained certain rights to enable special features in Adobe Reader. The document has been changed since it was created and these rights are no longer valid. Please contact the author for the original version of this document"

    Hey Sara,

  • Enable Usage Rights for Reader 9

    Hi,
    I'm reading through a pdf document and I want to make comments.  Apparently I need to enable the usage rights through Advanced/Extend Features in Adobe Reader.  However, I don't have the Advanced tab (Reader 9).  Do I need to update to a newer version?  I've tried doing this but the download only proceeds so far then stops.  I've tried temporarily disabling my Antivirus but this doesn't change anything.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    You need Acrobat Standard or Pro to Reader-enable a document. Reader itself cannot do this. Reader 10 allows you to add sticky notes and hightlight text annotations, even of the file is not Reader-enabled, unless the document has security restrictions that prevent it.

  • Enabling Usage Rights for Web Service and Database connectivity

    We are looking for code that allows us to enable web service and database connectivity rights into a form. We are using LiveCycle Forms 7.2 to render the XDP and merge data. Because we are merging data into the form, it has to be reader enabled through the  code everytime it is presented to the user in our application.
    usageRights[0] = com.adobe.document.pdf.DOCUMENT_SAVE.value;
    usageRights[1] = com.adobe.document.pdf.FORM_FILL_IN.value;

  • FLV video in PDF won't play for Mac user with Reader 9.4.5.

    I recently created a PDF with an embedded FLV file. I'm using Acrobat X Pro, so embedding the file created a Rich Media Annotation (RMA). From what I've read, anyone using Acrobat or Reader version 9 or later should be able to play the file. However, one of my readers on a Mac can't play the file, and in fact, doesn't even see a preview of it on the page. He just sees a blank spot.
    Can someone shed some light on this?
    Thanks.
    Dave

    There are hundreds of PDF readers. Most of them only view only simple files and fail with interactivity, or PDFs for specialized uses like prepress. As Bob said, the only readers you can be sure of are Adobe Reader and Acrobat. Tell your viewers to download the FREE Adobe Reader to get the best viewing experience, and provide a link to Adobe Reader.

  • Question on ADMIN rights for EP user with ECC also installed on same system

    Hello EP/ECC gurus
    I have a situation here where we have installed EP and ECC on the same system using same SID and system number.
    I have logged into ECC using a user name that has been registered as a developer.
    I can create a table, populate with data etc., without any problem.
    However, when we try to use EP, we are getting errors that the says that there are no roles assigned to this user.
    What are we doing wrong? Any suggestions or recommendations will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Ram

    Hi Ram,
    When the installation of EP was performed it should have created a user named J2EE_ADMIN. Try to log on to the portal with this account (password should be known from time of installation). You can examine the user/role assignments of your developer user and assign the portal roles you would like that particular user to have accordingly.

  • Enabling Password Reset for end users

    Dear all,
    I have enabled the "Get Support" Link in the Logon Page Password reset. We are in EP 7.0 SP12.
    I followed the below link
    [Enabling users to reset their own password|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/45/7e6313d8780dece10000000a11466f/frameset.htm]
    We want to use the WD Application. I have assigned the action "UME.Logon_Help" to the Anonymous users.
    But after the user gives the User id and the email and submits, control stays there itself. No messages are shown.No mails are also sent
    Has anyone faced this problem before? Please help.

    Hi,
    All those are done. If we enter a wrong mail id we are getting the message "Invalid User Information"
    But when we enter the correct user information, the control stays in the same page. And the password is not reset.
    In the default trace I saw the following exception

  • Save and File Attachment usage rights for adobe reader

    With Acrobat Pro is there any way to save a pdf that has both save usage rights and file attachment usage rights?
    It seems that if I save the pdf with save the form data usage rights then I can no longer use createDataObject or setDataObjectContents methods when viewing with adobe reader or acrobat.
    createDataObject and setDataObjectContents require 'File Attachment' usage rights, which from the behavior I am getting totally disjoint from the save usage rights.
    I have no trouble using submitForm method with save usage rights applied to the pdf.

    Thanks for the replies, I also want to verify that a pdf created with acrobat that uses createDataObject or setDataObjectContents will no longer function properly in acrobat after saving the pdf with the additional usage permissions.  Is there any documentation that points to what  functions are crippled by saving the pdf with the various choices of  extensions enabled?  It seems as if I save the pdf with any type of extended usage rights for reader, then the pdf functions as if it was opened by adobe reader even if I have it open in acrobat?

  • Enabling Usage Rights on Livecycle PDF Causes Problems with Table

    I have a form that uses a script to dynamically add rows to a table.  Everything works great, except that once I enable usage rights on the PDF, the header row repeats 3 times on the document.
    LINK TO DOCUMENT WITHOUT USAGE RIGHTS  (link removed) Everything works perfectly, but once I enable usage rights...
    LINK TO DOCUMENT WITH USAGE RIGHTS (link removed) As you can see the table is all messed up. The header row repeats 3 times.
    I am at a loss as to why this is happening. If anyone has any ideas, I would be greatful!
    EDIT:  Okay so I figured out what my problem was for anyone else who has this problem. I UNCHECKED: "Repeat Row for Each Data Item" in the Object Properties of the Header Row.  No more repeating headers!

    Hi Sachin,
    Just run into a solution. You should upgrage to Reader Extensions v7.0.2 for this to work. Read the section
    "Enabling commenting in a PDF document rendered in a web browser"
    in the ReadMe.htm file that accompanies Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions Version 7.0.2
    The procedure described lets you enable Adobe Reader 7.0 and later to allow commenting when the PDF document is rendered in a web browser, similar to Adobe Reader 6.0.

  • Automatic Enable Usage Rights in Reader

    We have several programs that can natively create PDFs. We have been manually enabling usage rights in reader in them with Acrobat 8.0 Pro. Is there a way to automate this with distiller or some other way?

    If you've got a form workflow that large, you'd probably want to check and be sure you are within the usage rights for Acrobat enabled forms.
    Forms enabling in Acrobat is intended for low-use situations.
