Getting Error 'Save As PDF Form' in Acrobat XI FormsCentral

I am trying to 'Save as form as PDF Form' in Acrobat XI FormsCentral, and I am getting the error. When I click Yes, nothing happens.

Hello George,
Thank you for your response. I was attempting to save a form created in FormsCentral as a PDF Form, but I was getting the error.
I have since determined that the file gets saved to AppData\Local\Temp, but could not write there. I added the path to 'Windows Trusted Sites' under Preferences - Security (Enhanced)

  • How do I purchase reader extensions to save a PDF form that has been filled out in Acrobat Reader?

    I have just discovered that in order to save a PDF form that has been electronically filled out in Acrobat Reader, that I have to purchase reader extensions to make this possible.  I would like to speak to someone about the price and how to purchase.
    I cannot find a phone number on your site, so I am hoping to get an answer from Adobe this way.
    Thanks,
    Chani

    Thanks everyone for responding.  I should have supplied more information.
    I was hired by my client to create PDF forms that can be downloaded from their website, filled out electronically in Acrobat Reader, and then saved (with all the form fields filled in) and emailed.
    I was supplied with scanned forms as the base for creating the form fields in Acrobat Pro.  These web visitors that will be filling out the forms and emailing them will only have Acrobat Reader, most likely.
    I created the forms in Acrobat Pro, and they worked great when I tested them ( in Acrobat Pro) - I could save the form field data.  However, my client has come back to me with numerous complaints from their web visitors - they cannot save the form once they have filled it out in Acrobat Reader and keep the data they have entered.  Instead, they have to print the form physically, scan it, and email it that way (kind of low tech for the year 2013, and not easy for these people).
    So, my end goal is to update these forms in Acrobat Pro so they can be filled out by folks only using Acrobat Reader and saved with the form field data intact.  Seems like a no-brainer that Acrobat Pro should have this capability without purchasing additional extensions.  However, in my research online, I have found several posts that suggest that purchasing "Reader Extensions" is the only way to enable Acrobat Pro to be able to do this.
    Can someone please clarify if I need to buy something to program these forms in Acrobat Pro to enable other people using Acrobat Reader to fill out these forms and save them with the form fields intact?
    If I do need to buy something, what is it exactly?  How do I find out clear, consise, specific information about buying it/the cost/the licensing?  I am a sole owner/employee of a graphic design firm and these forms are for my client, which is a locally-owned regional hospital.
    If this needs to move to the LiveCycle forum, fine, but I don't really know what that software is and since I'm only using Acrobat Pro (and the users, Acrobat Reader) I felt this was the appropriate place to post.
    Thanks for all of your responses!

    Hi Tbeirne,
    If you just want to save a pdf opened in Safari to your machine use the save as option from within the Reader plugin window. Just click on any of the buttons highlighted in below screenshots to Save a pdf at any location on your machine.
    or
    To summarize the issue, if you had opened an Internet PDF in a browser plug-in, you must use the save feature in the plug-in, not the Safari File > PDF Export, or File > Save As...
    Please let us know if this solution works for you and you are able to save and view PDFs files locally.
    Regards,
    Shashi

  • Created PDF form in Acrobat XI Pro, but HELP fields disappear when I save FCDT file to PDF. Please help. Thanks!

    Created PDF form in Acrobat XI Pro, but HELP fields disappear when I save FCDT file to PDF. Please help. Thanks!

    I am not aware of a field type "Help" within a PDF form. I do not see it as a form field that can be added in the form edit mode.
    Forms Central forms do not support all the features of Acrobat forms.
    Are you talking about the "Tool Tips" or a hidden field that only shows when one enters a field and is hidden upon exiting the field.

  • Unable to combine files on acrobat 8 getting error message "no PDF file was created beacuse Acrobat encountered an unidentified error"

    unable to combine files on acrobat 8 getting error message "no PDF file was created beacuse Acrobat encountered an unidentified error" Please help

    A lot of the time the files can not be combined because of incompatible fonts, or at least font sets that could not be resolved. Maybe that will give you some direction to look at.

  • Save & Send PDF Form

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to program a function in my PDF form that will automaticly save the PDF form in a folder and then sends the (just saved) PDF form attached in an e-mail.
    I've got the mail function working with my submit button. The only question is how can i get my PDF form to first save and then send the form?
    I've treid several saving scripts but couldn't get it working.
    Could you guys help me out?
    Kind Regards,
    Vincent
    Below my code:
    // Set up the recipients,subject, body, etc.
    var sTo = this.getField("Unit").value;
    var sBCC = "[email protected]";
    var sSubject = "Nice subject";
    var sBody = "Bla bla bla";
    // Set the error messge to display if it doesn't work, \r = carriage return
    var sErrorMsg = "Could not send email. Please make sure your email client is set up correctly.\r\r";
    sErrorMsg += "Otherwise, save this file and manually attach it to an email to: " + sTo +" [email protected]";
    // Email the entire document
    try {
        mailDoc({
        bUI: true,
        cTo: sTo,
        cBcc: sBCC,
        cSubject: sSubject,
        cMsg: sBody
    } catch(e) {
        app.alert(sErrorMsg, 1);

    To save with a script, you'll have to use the doc.saveAs method. There are a number of security related issues you'll have to deal with, as discussed here: http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/how-save-pdf-acrobat-javascript

  • Application error while generating PDF form

    Hello there,
    I am getting the message "Application error while generating PDF form" and when you hover it has additional information Message Class HREIC_APPL - Message number 258.
    I get this upon doing the following steps:
    1. Enter SAP R3, enter HREIC on the transaction code input.
    2. Enter EIC, Activity Search. Searched for an Activity, selected it and click the "PRINT" button.
    3. After clicking the PRINT button, I get the error message "Application error while generating PDF form".
    Installed this on development box, did the same configuration in test system, but still I get this error. ADS Configuration is working fine and configured fine.
    Is there anything else that is needed to be checked? like Ports, Firewalls, etc?
    Thanks a lot.

    Be sure that the RFC name is "ADS" and not anything else.
    Thanks.

  • Issue when opening PDF forms in Acrobat X

    First, pardon me if this is the incorrect forum for this post.  I did not locate any general technical support board for Acrobat X but I could have missed it.
    I have a user who has Adobe Acrobat X Standard (10.1.6) installed on his computer system.  He is able to generate PDF files and open regular PDF files without issues.  However, if he opens up any PDF which is a form, Acrobat immediately crashes.  His computer is a Windows 7 Professional x64 system.  Antivirus on the system is GFI Vipre Business.
    Here is what I have tried:
    Update Acrobat with the latest patches/updates.
    Different Windows profile with administrator rights.
    Removed Acrobat and reinstall through normal convential means.
    Removed Acrobat via tool at http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html.
    Remove Acrobat and then do a manual clean of the registry and Windows Explorer.
    Cleaned up fonts on the system.  This might not have been done right but based on the error, perhaps you all can offer suggestions on if this error is related to font issues.
    I would perform a system restore, but this user is unsure of when this issue started happening exactly.  So, we'd be in the dark on this.  The only thing that I can think I haven't tried is a wipe of the computer.
    Here are the specific errors:
    This error is received when trying to directly open a form PDF on the system:
    Title: Font Capture: Acrobat.exe - Bad Image
    Message: C:\Windows\system32\ATMLIB.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error.  Try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support.

  • How do I input data to a pdf form in Acrobat 8.1.6?

    There's probably a simple solution for this but I'm wracking my brain trying to figure out how to input data to a pdf form using Acrobat 8.1.6, or how I can make the pdf file data field input ready? Thanks. 

    If you created the form Go back to Acroabt and go to advanced menu and choose:
    Extend Features in Reader. then save.
    Now open Reader and you can add information and save. (limit 500 instances per pdf).
    Now if you created the form and have Acrobat make sure Acrobat in not in Forms Edit Mode.
    Just type in your information and save.
    Caution make sure that you finished all corrections and edits. because once you confer reader right you can not edit the form. you can edit the form items you fill in, but not the form itself.
    to correct the form design you have to go back to advanced reader rights and save a copy without rights. make changes then confer rights again.

  • Converting PDF forms from Acrobat to reader, Images won't upload?

    Hello,
    I've created an editable PDF form in Acrobat and saved it so that the document can be populated in Reader and saved. Only problem is that the functionality to upload an image is not working, you click on it in Reader and nothing happens? I understand that LiveCycle Designer is the one to use, but it only works on Windows, I'm a Mac. Is there a way of saving the PDF in Acrobat Pro so that both the editable text fields and image upload functionality work in Reader?
    Thanks

  • How to save to PDF form View Responses tab without including blank fields?

    Is there a way to save in PDF form from View Responses withouth including blank fields? More specifically, my form has several fields that have action (Show/hide) depending on the values. Once form is submitted and I am reviewing it from View Response tab, I use "save as PDF" button to save/download my completed form, however when I open it, it shows blank fields as well. Is there a way to somehow specify not to include blanks. If there is no way it would be a nice feature to have. Please let me know.

    No, the PDF is always going to show all fields, the "Show/Hide" does not affect the PDF we generate.
    I will soon post a Form for users to submit feature requests, keep your eyes out for an announcement in the forums for it and you can submit this request.
    Thanks,

  • How to get an Adobe trusted function javascript to save a pdf form even if fields are empty?

    I have a form I have created in Livecycle designer which I want to save to a specific location using a combination of specific fields in the form. I have been able to do this by writing a trusted function and putting it in the adobe javascript file and then putting some code on a save button in the form. However, it may be that some of the fields (vfirstname and vsecondname) may be blank and i still want the form to save. Ideally i want to write an if statement to substitute those fields for other fields if they are blank but cant get the code to  work.
    Working code in trusted function file
    // SaveAs Function1 var mySaveDoc = app.trustedFunction(function(doc) { app.beginPriv(); var vDate1 = event.target.xfa.resolveNode("form1.page1.Table1.Row1.leftsideofform.Timeanddate.Dateofca ll").rawValue.toString(); var vfirstname = event.target.xfa.resolveNode(" form1.page1.Table1.Row1.rightsideofform.Prospectiveclient.ClientFirstname").rawValue.toSt ring(); var vsecondname = event.target.xfa.resolveNode("form1.page1.Table1.Row1.rightsideofform.Prospectiveclient.C lientsurname").rawValue.toString(); var myPath = "/MGLCC01-SV/MGPdata/Mihomecare/testce/" + vDate1 +"_" + vfirstname + "-" + vsecondname + ".pdf"; // saveAs is the only privileged code that needs to be enclosed doc.saveAs({cPath: myPath, bCopy: true, bPromptToOverwrite: true}); app.endPriv(); }); 
    Working code on save button in form
    form1.#pageSet[0].Newenquirymasterpage.Button1::mouseUp - (JavaScript, client) var txt = form1.execValidate(); //This script will validate all required fields event.target.mySaveDoc(event.target) xfa.host.messageBox("Document has been saved to shared drive", "File Saved", 3, 1); 
    IF code for trusted function file that I cant get to work
    // SaveAs Function1 var mySaveDoc = app.trustedFunction(function(doc) { app.beginPriv(); var vDate1 = event.target.xfa.resolveNode("form1.page1.Table1.Row1.leftsideofform.Timeanddate.Dateofca ll").rawValue.toString(); if (event.target.xfa.resolveNode("form1.page1.Table1.Row1.rightsideofform.Prospectiveclient. ClientFirstname").rawValue == " ")      {          var vfirstname = event.target.xfa.resolveNode("form1.page1.Table1.Row1.rightsideofform.Enquirer.EnquFirstn ame").rawValue.toString();      }      else      {          var vfirstname = event.target.xfa.resolveNode("form1.page1.Table1.Row1.rightsideofform.Prospectiveclient.C lientFirstname").rawValue.toString();      }     if (event.target.xfa.resolveNode("form1.page1.Table1.Row1.rightsideofform.Prospectiveclient. Clientsurname").rawValue == " ")      {          var vsecondname = event.target.xfa.resolveNode("form1.page1.Table1.Row1.rightsideofform.Enquirer.Enqsurname ").rawValue.toString();      }      else      {          var vsecondname = event.target.xfa.resolveNode("form1.page1.Table1.Row1.rightsideofform.Prospectiveclient.C lientsurname").rawValue.toString();      } var myPath = "/MGLCC01-SV/MGPdata/Mihomecare/testce/" + vDate1 +"_" + vfirstname + "-" + vsecondname + ".pdf"; // saveAs is the only privileged code that needs to be enclosed doc.saveAs({cPath: myPath, bCopy: true, bPromptToOverwrite: true}); app.endPriv(); }); 
    Can anyone suggest why the If code above doesn't work? or how i could get the form to submit even if the fields are blank?

    It can also work if you certify the document and each user chooses to trust it to execute privileged JavaScript, which may be feasible in this setting. The method you'd use is doc.saveAs: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.524.html
