How can I share a form that I filled out without the recipient being able to edit it?

I've created a fillable form to use as a grading rubric.  I want to be able to share the completed form with students, but it's imperative that they not be able to change anything.  Once the form is filled out, how can I save it as a regular pdf, not a form?

You don't want to use Preflight to flatten form fields since it is buggy for this. Instead use JavaScript (flattenPages method), or use this free JavaScript based tool: UVSAR : Selective Flattener tool for Adobe Acrobat 8, 9 and X
Overprint flattening isn't relevant to this.

  • Is there a way to save a fillable form (in Reader) as a static (uneditiable) image and send it for signature without the recipient being able to revise the fields at all?

    Is there a way to save a fillable form (in Reader) as a static (uneditiable) image and send it for signature without the recipient being able to revise the fields at all? I have designed a number of fillable forms and sent them to our clients as Reader extended pdfs to be filled out and sent back. Now, certain clients want to be able to fill in the fields and save the doc as a pdf that can't be tampered with so that they can send it to their own people for signature to be returned to them hand-signed and scanned via email.
    Since the forms have been secured, and my cleints are only using the free Acrobat Reader, how can they save the filled in form as a static pdf to send on for signature? They do not want to have to print, scan and email. Is there an app, plug-in, simple solution to this?
    Thank you,
    Rumor

    The signature WILL work! I've just looked into it more, thank you so much for pointing me in that direction.
    I get it now, it locks the form fields in place after my coworker fills them in and signs it (as the very last step).
    I wish I would have asked on here a full day ago. Would have saved a lot of headache and Googling.
    Thanks again.

  • How can I turn a form that is open on my browser into a PDF doc if I cannot save it onto my computer

    How can I turn a form that is on my Safari browser into a PDF if I cannot save the form onto my computer?

    Acrobat XI Pro has a "create PDF from a web page" feature. If you have Acrobat XI Pro installed perhaps you can "capture" the web form as a PDF. If so then this PDF can (of course) be saved to the local machine's HDD.
    Be well...

  • How can I recovered a form that I delete by mistake?

    I nee someone help, How can I recovered a form that I create and later on I deleted by mistake? Thank you in advance for your prompt answer

    Hi;
    I am sorry to say that there isn't any method to recover a deleted form.  There is a confirmation dialog saying that this is a permanent deletion to ensure that is what you want to do, once you've confirmed the form is really deleted and not recoverable.
    Thanks,

  • Hello there - how can I share my iTunes library between two users on the same computer? I put the library in a shared folder between both and have selected this library on both as well, but when I update iTunes with music etc it only appears on one?

    Hello there - how can I share my iTunes library between two users on the same computer? I put the library in a shared folder between both and have selected this library on both as well, but when I update iTunes with music etc it only appears on one?

    Thank you Joe - I tried this but it's only showing a teensy amount of music - the stuff on the second users account as opposed to the giagntic library on the 'main' account. I actually went to a Genius Bar and they said that apple doesn't really want you to share music between accounts - parents don't want to hear their kids music etc. Which seemed strange, but it might be the case sadly   Thanks anyway!

    How can I share purchased apps between 2 diff users on the same mac?

    A purchased app is associated with an Apple ID. A user with a different Apple ID cannot use the app unless they also use the same Apple ID.

  • Is it possible to create a standard form that can be emailed to anyone and once filled out by the receiver, have a button that the receiver clicks and the form is encrypted and attached an email back to the sender and a preset admin password would open it

    Is it possible to create a standard form that can be emailed to anyone and once filled out by the receiver, have a button that the receiver clicks and the form is encrypted and attached to an email back to the sender and a preset admin password would open it?

    Hello Graphicsguy123,
    You would need to first create the form ( or Widget in EchoSign) first to generate a url which you can paste it in the email being sent to customers. You would need to make sure you have a Document Cloud Enterprise Premium account in order to create a Widget. If you don't have the account, you can use the trial version to test it. Here is the link:

    How can I get rid of that irritating contact/favorites across the top of the home screen?

    Actually, that's not on the Home screen, it is on the multitasking or App Switcher view so only shows up when you enter that mode (so I'm not to clear as to why it is so "irritating", but whatever).

  • How can you prevent encrypted folders that you created in disc utility from being deleted?

    You cannot create encrypted folders in, or encrypt folders with, Disk Utility.
    You can create with Disk Utility encrypted disk images from folders. I assume that's what you mean.
    The proper way to do it is by setting the immutable bit. Read here
    <http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/immutableflags.html>
    about the immutable bits (and the trouble they sometimes create).
    The user immutable bit (uchg) is the same as the Finder lock, as described above by X423424X. It's a weak lock, with only a warning.
    The system immutable bit (schg) is more powerful. Once is set, the item cannot be deleted in Finder (even though Finder will ask for your password and may give you the impression that it can trash it; it will end with an error).
    I set it in Terminal, thus
    $ sudo chflags schg my_encrypted_disk_image
    and unset it also in Terminal
    $ sudo chflags noschg my_encrypted_disk_image
    (Note that, when you unset the system immutable bit, the change won't be reflected immediately in Finder, but the item can be trashed nevertheless.)

  • How can i do a factory reset in snow leopard without the disk to start off new without losing my other programs

    how can i do a factory reset on snow leopard without the disk to start off new without losing my programs?

    You can't. You will need a Snow Leopard disc. You can purchase replacements for your computer from Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
    To contact product and tech support: Apple - Support - Contact Apple Support.
    A "factory reset" means you erase the drive securely. All of your files will be removed permanently. I suggest you make a backup:
    Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
      1. Open Disk Utility in the Utilities folder.
      2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
      3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
      4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag
           it to the Destination entry field.
      5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
          the Source entry field.
      6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.

  • How do I attach a file to a Mail doc without the file being opened in the Mail document?

    How do I attach a file to a Mail doc without the file being opened in the Mail document?

    You will (often) see a preview of the attachment, depending upon the file type.  To get rid of the preview: control click on the attachment select "View as icon".
    (What the recipient of your message sees is dictated by that person's email application.  If you want to make sure the person gets an attachement which is not previewed, you can zip it (control-click, "Compress...") and then attach the zipped file(s).  Or you can try something like Attachment Tamer.)
