    I have been creating forms in InDesign and pulling into Acrobat XI Pro to do form fields. My client would like to fill in the PDF form using Reader, save under a different name locally on their device, and redistribute. The problem I have is that, sometimes, they want to redistribute the form as Read Only. I know how to flatten the form on a mobile device, but uncertain how they can do that with a PC or Mac using Adobe Reader. I looked at FormsCentral thinking there might be a solution going that route, but don't believe there is. Any advice?

    FormsCentral won't help with flattening a form. You could set up the form in Acrobat so that the fields are set to read-only, using JavaScript. Not quite the same as flattening but it's the best Reader can do.
    Note that when Reader is used to e-sign a document, it gets flattened, but this won't be possible if you need to Reader-enable the form and under certain other conditions.

    The add annotations field shows as not allowed in the security options. So how do I send this form back with the changes??

    I think you you need to click 'save' first, then it is saved to acrobat, where it will prompt to send.

    I am trying to fill out a PDF form from an internet site, but when I go to print it, none of the content prints, only the header of the document.  Help!

    Instead of printing it, try saving it as a pdf from the print menu, and then printing the pdf out.

  • Fill out a pdf form from ADF application

    Hi
    I need to fill out a PDF form, from my ADF application and i want to know if exist a component or libarary to do this.
    i hope you can help me
    Regards.

    Hi,
    two options are:
    Oracle BI Publisher (by far best choice but needs to be licenced)
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/vohra-jdev-xmlpub.html
    Jasper Reports, Free but not as functional or easy to use as BIP
    http://jasperforge.org/projects/jasperreports
    Both products have Java API's which you can integrate with your application.

  • I used Preview to fill in a .pdf form. I saved it, re-opened and saw my annotations. When I attached it to an email, the annotation and filled-in materials were no there. What's happening?

    Having been gently chided by "How to write a good question," I offer additional information as a preamble to my question.
    I am writing about Preview 7.0 (826.4) on Mavericks 10.9.4; my computer is a MacBook Pro, late 2011 model with not modifications.
    I used Preview to fill in a .pdf form and saved it. To check, I re-opened the form and saw all the info I had filled in. However, when I attached it to an email, the info was not there; the form contained none of the info I had added. I re-did the form several times, but the results were the same when I attached it to email. What's going on?
    Here's a secondary matter. When I filled in the form, the print was red and the type too large. Though I went into fonts, etc. and selected a type size and color black, the info I added was still red and the wrong size. Again, how do I manage color, size, and font?

    Form document will automatically be saved after closing the file. As far as cloud message is concerned, it seems your Mobile link setting has been turned on. When you pressed device back button after filling the form, it was saved to your Acrobat.com account. You can access this document by going to Acrobat.com tab present in left pane. Its a cloud storage area where you can upload/save any document.
    Thanks,

  • How to fill-in a PDF form?

    I'm trying to fill in a PDF form. Is it possible to make a form editable? I'm also not very computer-literate. Any help would be deeply appreciated.

    Does anyone have any ideas on how to achieve this as we are keen to introduce this option on our own online forms?

  • HT2506 Font size filling out a PDF form in Preview?

    Hello. Anyone know if I can change Font size when filling out a PDF form in Preview? If so, how? Thanks a lot.

    Whilst in the Preview application, press "Shift - Command - A" (⇧⌘A) simultaneously to show the markup toolbar, or click View, and select "show markup toolbar". There is an icon "A" near the right hand side of the now visible markup toolbar, click this icon to reveal all the font options.

  • Trouble filling out a PDF form

    When I fill out a PDF form on my Macbook Air, all of the highlighted fields stay populated and the highlight disappears. When I look at the saved file on another Mac, like my iMac, the highlights are still there. If I click on them, the information becomes visible. But, if I then click on the next highlighted field, that information appears but the previous information disappears. If I try printing this form, the only information that prints is any box that needed a checkmark. Any suggestions?

    Preview is a faulty application that corrupts PDF forms the moment it opens
    them. You should avoid using it at all costs.

  • Can't fill in Adobe PDF forms

    Hi ... I'm once again turningi to my favorite trusted resource for problems ... MAC users!
    I have been unable to figure out how to fill in interactive forms in PDF format ... it just doesn't work! I've read Adobe's help pages for Adobe Reader 8.0 and can't find a workable fix. The help pages mention tool bars I don't have and icons that don't appear.
    It kills me that my PC Internet Explorer friends can fill out and submit forms online and I can't.
    What am I missing here? All help greatly appreciated!!
    ccCarol

    Carol, in case you didn't realize it, the problem might not be on your end. It could be the particular form that's causing the problem. Not all forms are created as "interactive." If the creator did not create an "interactive" form, I don't believe there's anything you (OR a PC user) can do except pull out the old typewriter or pen.
    If you'd like to test a form that's definitely interactive, try downloading this one:
    http://www.utc.edu/Administration/Admissions/secure/UTCApplication.pdf
    I've just tried this particular one and had no difficulty using Adobe Reader 8. You shouldn't need any "tool," rather simply click on any of the interactive fields and start typing.
    Incidentally, interactive PDFs also work with Preview, the program which comes with OSX, so you might wish to try that as well. It also worked fine for me on this particular form.
    If the form turns out not to be the problem, be sure to post back as I'm sure someone can help figure this out. You definitely should be able to fill out a PDF form, so long as it was created as interactive.

  • Fill and Save PDF Form within Safari

    I know I can download, fill out a PDF Form and save.
    But we need to fill out PDF Forms online and have those forms saved on our server (within our Student Information Server).
    I cannot see any possible way of doing this, and it could be a reason our school district switches to PCs.
    I have downloaded, and installed Adobe Reader 8.0, which doesn't allow Saving PDF.
    The Schubert|it 2.2.3 plugin for PPC machines won't allow Saving either.
    Is there any hope.

    You are misunderstanding.
    I don't want to save the PDF on my computer. I want it saved on the server within our Student Information System.
    It doesn't work with the schubert plugin (the plugin even says it won't).
    I want to be able to modify a PDF that is on a server and save it on the server all within a web page.
    It can be done on Windows. It can't be done on OS X (up to 10.4.9)

  • Fill in a PDF Form from source code.

    Hello:
    I have a PDF form made with LiveCycle. This form read the data from a xml file. I'm trying to fill it programatically but i don't know how. I'd like to know if there is some way to do this action, from source code or with a command line.
    Thanks a lot.

    iText is an API which has the PDF edit capabilities.
    Read this link : http://www.itextpdf.com/
    If you have Adobe LiveCycle Forms ES/ES2 solution component, you need not go for iText; Instead, you can invoke the LC APIs through C#.net and merge the XML data into the PDF.
    If you would go with option#2, let me know. I will share you my ideas.

  • How to fill in a PDF form after client fills in HTML form

    i guess i need to try this a second time.
    i have been to numerous sites where they ask a user to fill in lot of fields with a html web form, and then when all done all that filled in data gets transferred into PDF forms for the client to print out, ertc
    tyopical sites i have seen this with are brokerage accounts for stock and commodities. all the major houses use this format, along with electronic signatures, etc ec etc
    so, the client fills out an html form, presses enter, and voila a pdf form shows up with all *its* fields filled in with the information the client supplied in the html form.
    this is what i am trying to figure out how to do. i have been searching the internet for 10 days now, about 4 hrs a day on this and i still have not found the code for this
    my site is PHP, but java i guess would work as well.
    any way, i am getting way behind on this project and if anybody knows where the code is to make this hapen at my site i'd be grateful to find out :)
    THANKS!!!

  • How to fill data in PDF form?

    Please suggest me some path as I am totally blank about this concept.
    Regards.

    Hi Leonard,
    Thank you very much for the reply.Our users have only reader at their side. Can we set up any kind of software implementation at server side? Or with the use of the .NET(C#) ?
    Can you please provide me some link to initiate this project? Actually I don't know how to start this.
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • When filling out a PDF form and reopening it is blank

    When I fill out a form using Acrobat XI pro and then save it with the same name or a different name and try to reopen it, it is blank.  I can us the quick print feature and it will actually print out the information I thought I saved.  But if I open it again it shows blank.  Any ideas?

    RebeccaFlameLily,
    This problem occurs when the Preview application on a Mac is used to fill-in the forms. It is well known the Preview corrupts PDFs in a number of ways and it should be absolutely avoided when using PDF forms. The damage it does to a document cannot be repaired, but you can open the corrupted form in Acrobat, export the form data (to an FDF or XFDF file), and import it back into a blank form. Then inform your users to use Adobe Reader and not Preview.
