  • Urgent (sort-of) How do you edit the form of typefaces/fonts or create your own ??

    Hey im very new to illustrator- but i really need to do this project.  I am unable to learn the basics because of time.
    This is what i want to do: (please help im clueless at the mo)
    Basically i want to edit the forms of a  san serif type ( or make my own (if it is easy)) .
    I want to edit type because im making an animation where the font letters are morphing in to other letters.
    ei - A into B into C ect .
    i can draw this - the problem is that im gonna have to 100s if i want a smooth animation and i would of thought using illustrator would be alot quicker and  i can use more frames.
    how would i go about this ?
    Also what size do you reccomend .

    zosspro,
    You may have a look at blends.
    If you wish to have a number of steps from one shape to another (outlined Type or whatever), you may:
    1) Place the start shape to the left and the end shape to the right (with the centres at the same Y value) with a suitable distance so yo can see what you are doing;
    2) Object>Blend>Blend Options, set Spacing to Specified Steps with the number of inbetween shapes, set Orientation to Align to Page or Path as desired, if relevant;
    3) Select both shapes form 1) and Object>Blend>Make.
    You can now see all the intermnediate shapes. You can Undo and make changes, and you can Object>Blend>Expand if you wish to have all the steps as independent objects (you may Ungroup them).
    You can also make a blend between three or more objects to start with, with the same distances and number of steps between the original shapes, and you can combine (the objects from) blends.

  • How can I edit a form that has "Extend Features in Adobe Reader"?

    I created a form in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 and added Extend Features in Adobe Reader. I need to edit the form, but "Save a Copy" isn't removing the "Extend Features...". I get an error message that I can't edit the form & to "save a copy" in order to edit. What can I do?

    When I saw the responses, I pulled out an old version and started over. I already deleted the one that wouldn't revert from extended functions and the copy I created to edit it based on removing extended functions with "save a copy". Thanks anyway. I'd love to know why it wouldn't remove extended functions.

  • How can I edit saved form once I retrieve  it

    I am trying to edit a form i saved then retrieved  from the  cloud

    Hi Aturodoc,
    Please tell me a bit more about what's happening--are you having trouble filling in a form? Or did you convert a form to another format, and are having trouble editing it? I am happy to help, but need to know a bit more about what's going on.
    I look forward to hearing back from you.

  • How do I edit a form that is not on my list of forms on FormsCentral?

    I made an online form and cannot figure out how to edit the settings on it because it doesn't show up on my forms in formscentral. The link is still active though because I can get responses from it. Is there a way to edit it?

    Maybe these two previous discussions may help:

  • How do I edit a form I imported made by another user?

    I am trying to import a form off my computer to edit, but I am unsure how to get into editing mode.

    It limits your options that way since not all field types have an alignment property. It could be improved, but hasn't been, so you will either have to modify the fields individually or you can use a to loop through all of the text fields and set the alignment to what you want.

  • How do I edit my form?

    I've made my form but want to make a few changes. How do I do that? And how do I get the new copy-and-paste snippet for my website?

    You can just go to the design tab and change it. If your form is open it will ask you to close it. Once finished editing re-open your form. You don't need to re-copy/paste the embed code unless you changed the form width.
    Hope that makes sense.

  • How do I edit a form that I did not completely fillout

    I have the form create and I was filling it out. I did not complete filling it out and it is in the dashboard and I have not saved as a pdf..how do I retrieve it so I can continue to fill out

    Hi tygtalconsulting,
    Did you create the form, or was it sent to you? Are you filling it out in FormsCentral or Adobe Reader? If you're filling out a form in FormsCentral, and closed the browser before submitting, then you'll have to refill the form. If you're using Reader, it would have to be saved as a Reader Enabled PDF file for you to save the data that you've entered.
    Can you please tell me more about your form?
    Best,

  • How can you edit a form that you've already created?

    I'm not referring to the form fields. I mean if you have a typo for example in the docuyment you created from InDesign and now you need to go back and correct it. How can you do that and maintain all the fields you've already created?
    If you're not able to do this, that would be a huge flaw in the workflow.

    Thanks very much!!
    No need to be embarrassed. That gets a lot of people. Most assume (and I did too at one point) that replace pages does that, replaces the page and everything on it.

  • How do I edit PDF forms on a mobile phone?

    Hi,
    I'm using the FormsCentral App (Acrobat XI) to create the PDF form and have distributed it as open.  I can complete it on a PC using reader as required.
    What I need to do is have the form on mobile phones with reader installed where they can be edited and returned.
    I'm testing on a Windows phone but the main phones will be Android (eg Galaxy), the form opens on the phones but will not edit.
    I'm probably missing something, please advise.

    Hi;
    Adobe Reader on both iOS and Android devices can fill out and Submit the FormsCentral PDF forms.  Your Android target audience should be OK.
    For Windows Phone it does not work, as far as I understand Adobe Reader on Windows Phone does not yet support filling forms. 
    Thanks,
    Josh

  • Unable to edit Data Forms in EPM 11.1.2.1

    Hello Gurus,
    I have recently exported the form from EPM 11.1.1.3 and have imported it to EPM 11.1.2.1 successfully without any issues.
    I then checked the Data forms to see if the forms load properly and I have observed that it is not using the Alias dimensions for the Page/Point of view dimensions.
    Now when I try to edit the form I get the following error/message. I am not sure as to how I can edit the form.
    You cannot edit an ad hoc grid from this context. If you have an Ad hoc grid creator role, open it, and use Save.I am not getting as to how I can edit this form so that I can select the option to use Alias in the data form settings
    Thanks
    HyperEPM.

    Hi HyperEPM,
    To solve your problem, try to follow these steps:
    1. Create a report into the EPM 11.1.2.1 platform. Then export it.
    2. Open a report exported from EPM 11.1.1.3 platform and copy all the "query" tag (<query>...</query>).
    3. Select all the "query" tag from the report you've exported from the EPM 11.1.2.1 platform and paste the tag that you've copied in the previous step.
    4. Import the updated file.

  • How do I edit text in a fill-in form?

    How do I edit text in a fill-in form?  I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro version 10.1.8 in Mac OSX.  The document was created in Word, saved as a pdf, opened in Acrobat, and form fields added.  Now I need to change some of the text on the original form (mostly just dates).  Ideally, I wish there were a way to edit the forms overall - add or delete lines, edit text, etc.  I've done this before, but I always seem to need to go back to Word, edit the original document, and then re-create the form fields... it takes me a huge amount of time, making sure each field is formatted correctly (font, size, wrapping, text resizing, etc) so it looks ok when the user enters their data and prints it.  Please, tell me there is a better way!
    If the solution is upgrading to a higher version of Acrobat, I'm listening... but ideally I can get this batch done in the software I have, then worry about learning the newest version.

    Fonts are Licensed asset's subject to single user use. They are not intended to be exchanged, redistributed, etc.
    As part of the PDF standard they included in a document so that the document can be viewed reliably without the font be installed on the viewing station.
    To edit you must have the font installed on your computer. The ability for second parties to use the font would violate font licenses.

  • How do I Edit an Existing PDF Form Without Losing Form Functionality

    I'm brand new to Acrobat but familiar and proficient with Flash, PhotoShop Premiere Pro, After Effects, Dreamweaver, Fireworks etc.
    The company I work for sells office supplies. We sell 57 distinct items.  We have Acrobat 9.  I am designing a PDF order form with fields that can be emailed to our clients as an attachment.  They fill out the form, it calculates the total, they send it back to us, we fill and ship the order.  Basic and straightforward.
    I can add form fields to my order/pricelist... not a problem.  The question is:
    Once I have brought a PDF into Acrobat and add 57+ fields and calculations, which is a time consuming process, how do I edit an item price at a later date, if someone in the company decides to make a change to our pricing?
    See..., If I save the original Microsoft Excel document as a PDF, Acrobat can't edit the text for some reason.  Something to do with "Renderable Text".  Now if I open the PDF saved from Microsoft Excel in Adobe Illustrator, I can use the text tool to make changes. That doesn't help me... just saying. Why can't I edit "Renderable Text" with the Acrobat Text Tool?  Someone in a forum stated that Acrobat is NOT a word processing program!  If that is an accurate statement, it would appear that Acrobat can at least work with base PDF documents to make certain types of modifications and add functionality.  Is that correct?
    Here's the problem.  I create a PDF with form functionality.  Everything works great.  The boss says, I want to change the price of the scissors.  I can't change the text in Acrobat because of the "Renderable Text" nonsense.  Does this mean that I have to re-apply all of the form fields and calculations to the new base PDF document every time there is a minor change?  I know there has to be a simple work around.  Should I upgrade to a newer version of Acrobat?
    Is it possible to save the original existing form functionality as a layer or overlay to be applied to the new modified base PDF document?   Kind of like so many other Adobe products do including PhotoShop, Fireworks, Premiere Pro, After Effects, Flash etc., so that all of the form functionality can be applied in one big chunk?  Premiere Pro has the time-saving feature of "Paste Attributes".  It's a real time saver.
    It may be simpler to just direct me to a video that goes through the process of creating a PDF order form with fillable fields that multiplys quantity by unit price and totals one column.
    I already created a prototype of the form in PhotoShop which can be saved as a PDF.  The finished order document appearance has 95 horizontal 3px wide lines and 6 vertical 3px lines, kind of like what one might expect to see in an Excel spread sheet.  The form also contains some graphics and unconventional text areas that acrobat could overlay text fields and everything would be fine.
    With these great number of horizontal dividing lines, It doesn't seem practical or even possible to create the basic layout in Acrobat.  As I originally stated, I'm new to Acrobat and would like suggestions for a workflow that enables easy editing of an existing PDF document with form fields.  I want to avoid the monumental task of re-doing all of the fields and calculations.

    For what you are trying to do that is probably what you want -- Replace Pages. There are a few more issues that you need to be aware of since this is a business form. If customers are using Reader XI, it is not an issue.
    On the renderable text, can you see the text list when you look at the font tab in the document properties (ctrl-D)? If not, they you do not really have fonts to edit. This may be the type of fonts you used in the original or the way in which you did the conversion to PDF. You need to have fonts that are on your system and then be sure to embed them (otherwise others may not be able to read them because of different OS or such).
    As to e-mailing the form, that is fine (though there are sometimes problems with various clients and PDFs -- but usually on the sending end).
    For collecting the data you may want to try a different route. For users of Reader XI, they can save the form with the data. Prior versions could not do that unless you enabled the form for Reader. However, this latter process has a 500 form use limit -- A license issue. If the data is submitted, then it does not make a difference. The folks with Reader XI can still save the form with the data, others will have to print a copy for their records.
    The data can be imported to the form on your end and so you would have the exact same results as what was filled out. However, the submission process should be set up to submit to a web script for your receipt and not use mailto. The latter has problems that you have no control over due to proper operation with the mail client on the user machine. Typically the mail client must be the default and use MAPI. In any case, it is not reliable (not for business use). So submission to a web script is useful. The data in AcroForms would be of the type FDF (or possibly XFDF). If for some reason use created the form with Designer, that limit any editing in Acrobat since it is no longer a real PDF, but an XML container that Acrobat and Reader can display and interact with, but not change. Again, submission to a web script is still preferred.
    For dealing with a web script and some coding for various languages, you can check out the FDF Toolkit. It has been around a while, but should still handle the CGI needs of the submission. In addition, it has tools for adding the data to a database and other typical operations for data collection. You can save the FDF files and import them to the form and deal with the data there also.
    The use of Replace pages would do the job if all your form fields will still need to be in about the same location. Form fields are mark up and the pages are referred to as the document. Thus the replace pages will just original page and leave all the form fields. You will still need to go back and fix the value within the fields themselves, but that is a field edit.

  • How can I edit the email on a PDF form that's not created by me?

    I'm a beginner for Acrobat Pro and there is an email button on the form for user to email to the previous admin, how can I change the email addres to mine? When I try to edit on forms, it asked me to click "save a copy", I really can edit and changed to email address, however when I tested it, it said this is only a data but not a form.

    Tools > Content > Edit Document Text
    Better yet, edit the original source document, create a new PDF, and replace the old pages with the new: Tools > Pages > Replace

  • I have Adobe Creative Cloud.  How do I edit a PDF form I created at work and e-mailed to my home tablet?

    I have Adobe Creative Cloud.  How do I edit a PDF form I created at work and e-mailed to my home tablet?

    Hi Val,
    I see! Please see this thread: Is FormsCentral part of the Creative Cloud?
    Creative Cloud doesn't include FormsCentral, which is why you're being prompted to upgrade. (An Acrobat Pro subscription, on the other hand, does include FormsCentral.)
