Having problems using forms in Adobe Reader on Surface RT

I'm trying to use fillable forms on Adobe Acrobat on a PC that can be accessed via a Surface RT at work. But when I access the forms with the Adobe Reader app and attempt to fill out and email the forms, the parts that are filled out come out blank. Is this an issue with Adobe Reader? The email button I set up on the PC end via Acrobat works, so I can email it through Reader, but all the forms are blank. That doesn't make sense. There also is no way to use the sign function. Why is that?

Good luck with that. It's 2014 I can't open a fillable form that I need to submit for an annual report. I'm assuming I'll have to wait until I an use my laptop in a few days. Pretty shameful really.

  • Problems submitting form with Adobe Reader X?

    Our agency created a PDF fillable form, and recently three respondants using Adobe Reader X (on PCs) have contacted us to say that the submit button is not working and they are unable to save the contents of the form to a file on their computer.  The Forms Central Forum had said Adobe 8.0 or higher would support the fillable form, so we are surprised to be running into this.  Has anyone else encountered this problem and found the solution?  Is there a step we are missing?  Thank you!

    @melissasnider : make sure that the form filler are using Adobe Acrobat, Adobe Reader or Acrobat Mobile to fill up the form.  Any other PDF viewers doesn't support the submission functionality. More information can be found here : http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-2653.
    Hope this helps

  • Problem opening form on Adobe Reader

    Hi all,
    We are designing a form in adobe livecycle designer 7.0.
    It is a form where there is a submit by email button, 10 standard user-input text fields ,2 fields where we are pulling data from a query string.
    the query string data is coming fine when the user sees it in the browser. but when he is saving into his machine it prompts to save as a blank copy.
    On reopening the pdf the fields are not saved.
    We have tested this on different machines and different versions.
    Most versions are having this problem.
    But on some machines e.g 8.12 is working on others it gives the blank copy prompt.
    Are there any kind of setting required to make the form work?
    thanks for any kind of help

    Kimmerdog, Would you please rewrite your sentence "you have to publish the document it to the repository". And what is a repository?

  • Any known problems using IE6 and Adobe Reader 7 with LC:RM?

    On an properly configured LC:RM server only allowing certificate (X509) authentication,
    Adobe Reader 7 always pops up some Username/Password dialog for authentication.
    Reader 8 and 9 work fine with certificates.
    Is this an known restriction, that
    Reader-7 does not support X509 authentication?

    Steve,
    thank you again for your helpful answer.
    In addition we now found out, that Users having an authenticating Proxy
    may even need to upgrade to Adobe Reader 9 to be able to use LC:RM.

  • Having trouble using ExportPDF through Adobe Reader.

    I cant export my PDF to word through the Adobe Reader.
    Only can export it through the website online.
    Thank you!

    Hi Jane,
    Unfortunately our forums don't accept attachments.  That said, it sounds like you're getting an error even before you initiate the conversion process.  From within Adobe Reader, could you try opening Adobe Reader XI and choosing Edit > Preferences (Windows) or Adobe Reader > Preferences (Mac), then select 'Adobe Online Services' from the left-hand side.  Click 'Sign Out...', then sign back in with your Adobe ID and password.
    Please let us know how it goes!
    Thanks,

  • Cannot open a PDF form in Adobe Reader 7

    Hello
    I have developed a form in Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8. The form has java script embedded in it to do validations. The form has Usage Rights enabled and works well versions 8 and 9. However, when I open the form in Adobe Reader 7, I am getting an error message asking me to download a higher version. When I view the form properties in LiveCycle Designer for this form, I have the following settings:
    XDP Preview form: Acrobat 7 (static PDF form) under defaults tab.
    Under compatibility tab, I have the following settings:
    Form Type: Acrobat 8 (static PDF form)
    Text Formatting: Version 7
    Event model: Version 7.
    Much appreciate if someone could tell me how to make this form compatible with Adobe Reader 7.

    thanks Jono But I cannot see any option to set Target Version.
    the options I have are XDP Preview format and PDF Render Format which are set to Acrobat 7 static PDF form.
    I have set a permissions password on the form using Acrobat 8 and under Password security settings , I have set the compatibility as Acrobat 5.0 or later. However, When I look at the form properties by opening the same form in LiveCycle, the compatibility still shows Acrobat 8 static PDF form.
    How do I get this form to be opened by users in Adobe 7?
    Appreciate your quick response.

  • How can I find the location of the signature used in the Adobe Reader signature feature?

    How can I find the location of the signature used in the Adobe Reader signature feature? I've been using the signature feature for a while now and it works great and I'd like to use it on another computer. However, I forgot where I stored the signature. Adobe finds it with no problems (the signature pops up when I click "Place Signature"), but I have no idea where it is.

    Hello,
    It's here - C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Adobe\Acrobat\10.0\Security\

  • Filling in forms with adobe reader in firefox on ubuntu64

    Hi
    I am trying to fill in pdf forms with adobe reader 8.12 in firefox 3.03 and ubuntu64 8.04.
    The forms display in firefox and I can check boxes, but when I try to select a text box I am unable to type. I can enter text by right clicking on the box and pasting. I also cannot use tab to move between boxes.
    If I save a pdf to disk and open it with adobe reader then I can enter text and cycle through boxes with tab.
    Sometimes I am unable to load pdfs in firefox that I have viewed before. When I click on the link a blank page is displayed. I can open them if I set firefox to open them externally with acroread rather than in the browser window.
    Thanks for any help.
    Paul

    It's completely up to the IRS to create a form where the information fits in the field. There is nothing you can do with Reader since it is simply what it is called, a reader.
    For you to change the document properties would require using the full version of Acrobat.

  • Adding attachments to Reader enabled forms in Adobe reader

    I am creating a form for a user where they need to add an attachment to the form from Adobe Reader.
    They also need to save the form locally, as this is a low volume usage, approx. 100 uses in total the rights are being enabled in Acrobat Professional 8.0
    Functionality all works fine until the form is reader enabled and the script no longer functions.
    the script being used is as follows
    var oDoc = event.target;
    oDoc.importDataObject("Strategic Research Plan");
    var d = oDoc.getDataObject("Strategic Research Plan");
    app.alert("The name of the file you attached is: " + d.path);
    I have seen some comments indicating the file system cannot be accessed when rights have been applied, does anyone know if this is the case? or if there is a way to make this work.
    this is being done with Professional 8 and Reader 7.02 or later
    Any comments will be appreciated!

    Hi Pat,
    Yes I was using Firefox 19 indeed. This certainly fixed it.
    Thanks for the help!

  • Problems with SharePoint2010 and Adobe Reader X

    hi all,
    i have a big problem with SharePoint2010 and Adobe Reader x. We can open .pdf Files from SharePoint but not Safe. The Error Message is "
    SharePoint, SQL and OS are installed in English. The problem is that the site was probably created from a German template. One would have to create the site from an English template and then add the other languages by MUI. It is a matter which language site in the settings under Language Settings is uppermost to:
    how can the problem be solved?it looks like here, the reader still an error..

    Hi,
    Could you repost the error-message that you see in Adobe Reader? The problem might be because of a known bug in Microsoft SharePoint server 2010. Certain required field types are missing in the German/French site templates which cause a SOAP request on the server to fail. A workaround is to add these field types to the library. You could add these fields manually or using a script. You could look for following field types which might be missing from the site template.
    "Content Type ID","Approver Comments","Name","Document Modified By","Document Created By","File Type","HTML File Type","Source URL","Shared File Index","Title","Template Link","HTML File Link","Is Signed", "Document ID Value", "Document ID", "Content Type", "Created", "Created By", "Modified", "Modified By", "Has Copy Destinations", "Copy Source", "Approval Status", "URL Path", "File Size", "Item Type","Sort Type", "Effective Permissions Mask", "ID of the User who has the item Checked Out", "Is Checked out to local", "Checked Out To", "Unique Id", "Client Id", "Virus Status", "Check In Comment", "Edit Menu Table Start", "Edit Menu Table End", "Server Relative URL", "Encoded Absolute URL", "Property Bag", "Level", "Is Current Version", "Item Child Count", "Folder Child Count", "Select", "Edit", "UI Version", "Instance ID", "Order", "Workflow Version", "Workflow Instance ID", "Source Version (Converted Document)", "Source Name (Converted Document)", "Document Concurrency Number","Relink", "Merge", "Path"

  • Having problems using ion tape express with itunes cannot find the song on hard drive

    Having problems using ION tape express with itunes.  The song is on hard drive as temp1 not the name of the song.  And I have problems playing it in itunes
    because it says it cannot locate the song'

    Then correct the name of the song or point iTunes to the new file.
    Issues with restoring should be directed to the manufacturer of the backup software/device... this is not an Apple or iTunes issue.
