How do I edit a PDF form I created?

I made it yesterday and saved it in the default format.
Now when I open it, it is fillable, which is great but I'm not even done making all the boxes/form fields yet. It won't let me edit or add anything! When I click 'edit'it tells me "You cannot edit this file as a form"
I fiddled a bit with security but it didn't do anything so I switched it back.
HELP!!

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.)
Best,

How do I edit a pdf form content?

I have filled out a pdf form and want to edit what I've added to the form. When i use "Content Editing - edit text & images" I'm only allowed to edit the form itself. What format should the pdf be in to edit the content I've added to the form?

If you've edited the values of form fields then you should be able to edit
them again, just like you did before. Select the Hand tool for that. No
need to any special editing tool...

How do I edit a PDF file with Adobe PDF Pack?

How do I edit a PDF file with Adobe PDF Pack?

Well, you don't. Editing a PDF is a difficult and fraught business even with the most expensive software.
But PDF Pack lets you export to Word; then often you can edit in Word. Now you can make a new PDF. It might look like the original, or it might not. If small changes matter you might be out of luck. ON NO ACCOUNT USE THIS FOR GOVERNMENT FORMS.

How do I distribute a PDF form to an outlook contact group?

How do I distribute a PDF form to an outlook contact group?

I've had better luck converting my PDF forms to WORD documents by first printing to PDF so that I get a "non-form" PDF then saving as try67 noted. The conversion came out much cleaner. In my case it i for folks that need to make edits to the format or data submitted to us via PDF form - the type of edits that would be challenging if done to a PDF.

I want to know what I need and then how to take a pdf form I created in word and add the blue boxes so that anyone can type into my form

I want to know what I need and then how to take a pdf form I created in word and add the blue boxes so that anyone can type into my form

Hey john@adobe,
Could you please specify how exactly have you created your form.
You might need to have Acrobat installed on your computer to convert a word document to PDF.
Do you have Acrobat installed? If yes, what version? If no, then please try using the trial version of Acrobat DC (latest version) and access its features:
Download Adobe Acrobat free trial | Acrobat Pro DC
Also, let me know what kind of blue boxes are you talking about.
If you want others to edit your PDF form, then you need to make it a fillable form by choosing 'Form Editing' option from Tools pane.
Let me know more on this so that I can help you out.

Editing a pdf form that I created. Adding header error msg "do not have sufficient permissions to perform this task"

Editing a pdf form that I created. Adding header, currently the header only appears on page 1 of a 3 page pdf form. I want it to appear on each page. I am receiving the error msg "do not have sufficient permissions to perform this task"

In Adobe Acrobat use a Action for this.

How do I put a PDF form onto my website?

New to Acrobat. Just bought 8 Pro for Mac version. How do I embed a PDF form onto my website?
Also, if the process to do this is hard, would upgrading to version 9 make it any easier? Thanks.

It depends on how the user's system is set up. Normally, the PDF will open in the browser, not just downloaded.
It is possible to embed a PDF in an HTML page, for example: http://blogs.adobe.com/pdfdevjunkie/2007/08/using_the_html_embed_tag_to_di.html
But note that not all users will have a PDF viewer installed, and not all PDF viewers are produced by Adobe, so this will not work for everyone. The above link cause my Firefox browser to crash, but it works with my Internet Explorer browser.

PDF is an end destination format - although Acrobat is capable of making minor changes to a file (e.g. to correct typos) it is not a word processor or DTP application. Major changes must be done in the original document, and the PDF file re-exported.
You can copy text from a file by selecting it and right-clicking, or you can save the file as plain or formatted text. To make small changes to the text on a page, use the touchup tool - see the help file for more info.

How do i edit a PDF file that was sent to me in an email?

How do i edit a PDF file that was sent to me in an email?

Depends on the extent of the edits. You will need Acrobat in any case. If the edits or minor, you can use the text edit tool. For major edits, you need to request the original file be sent or see if you can Save As a DOC or related file type. PDFs are not really structured for editing and you are asking for a lot of grief if you want to do much. Exporting is the best way, or even better simply asking the author for the original (non-PDF type).
