How do I give user rights to save data entered into a form?

I created a form in LiveCycle and open it using XI.  When I open the form, I can fill out the form but I can only print the form.  I have tried changing the security in Livecycle to allow users to save the form with their changes.  I have tried to distribute the form but it doesn't send.  I don't need the information sent back to me though.  This is a form that everyone in my department uses and saves to their local drives.  Any suggestions?

You don't Reader-enable a form with Reader, you have to do it with Acrobat. Once the form is Reader-enabled with Acrobat, it will be savable with Reader. In Acrobat 9 you'd select:
Advanced > Extend Features in Adobe Reader
By the way, there is no Acrobat/Reader IX, though there is a version 9. They didn't start with the roman numerals until version 10 (X).

  • You cannot save data typed into this form

    Hi,
    I created a small interactive form using transaction SFP and I included this form into a WDA application.
    The data I am pushing from the system into the form is visualized, but there is also an error message stating:
    You cannot save data typed into this form.
    Please print your completed form if you would like a copy for your records.
    At first I thought something was wrong with my credentials, but after requesting new credentials this message still appears.
    Does anybody know what is causing this message and how I can fix it?
    Thanks
    Mario

    Hi.
    1. Are you able to generate an interactive form with the save option through a report program or by WDJ or were you able to view an interactive form by any means with your current credential configuration -> i am asking this coz eventhough you have the right credential, cases can be that it is not properly installed. (check out the standard WDA examples)
    2. try using ZCI and xACF layouts. (for ZCI generate the scripts)
    3 . Check if the form properties is set to interactive form.
    4. Check if you have the generated xml in the interface of your form.
    Hope you have checked these already.
    Rgds,
    Anto.

  • Why do some people get "you cannot save data typed into this form" using FormsCentral fillable PDF?

    Hello.  We're using FormsCentral extensively.  We create the fillable PDF and send it to about 80 people.  Each of them is adding content and saving and then passing on to another person for further content.  Ultimately, all parties are happy with the content and submit.  The problem is that some of the people open the PDF and get the message ""you cannot save data typed into this form".  What is causing this?  Please help as it is causing us many problems.

    Thanks for the quick response.  We distribute the form to 80 people who fill it out and create 80 versions.  They then pass the form to one other person who edits.  All 80 forms, once complete, are submitted to FormsCentral.
    I think the problem is with Mac users.  Is there anything unusual about the Mac with Adobe Reader?  If you provide your email address, I can send you one of the filled out forms that is having this issue.  It's quite odd in that the fillable fields don't show up until clicked on and the form is not saveable.
    Thanks!

  • Pop up message "Please fill out the following form. You cannot save data typed into this form..."

    I'm using InDesign CS2 to add some functionality to a pdf. Mostly buttons that I've used to create links to pages inside the document.
    When I open the exported pdf I get the unwanted message above, with a little pink icon in upper left hand corner of Acrobat 9.
    Any way to get rid of this?
    When I save the document with the functionality turned off, it's not there. So obviously there is something amiss when the functionality is added back in. But I really have no idea.

    If you're only adding buttons with links, there is no reason to add any of the extra functionality for Reader users.
    Just create the links and make sure that you choose to include links when exporting from ID.

  • Form created in ES4 won't save data entered in acrobat readerXI

    I have created a large form in Live Cycle Designer ES4. If I save the form as a pdf and open it in Acrobat Reader XI I get the message that I cannot save data entered in the form only print it. All I want to do is to put the form on our web site for people to download, complete, save and e-mail it back to me. I did consider an alternative method which is if I distribute the form and take the distributed pdf and save it locally, when it is opened in Reader you get the submit button on teh purple bar on teh right hand side. This will confuse a lot of our users so if there is a way to not have the submit button then that would work but how do I stop the submit button appearing on the purple bar?

    You have to Reader-enable the form. You can do this in Acrobat 11 by opening the form in Acrobat and selecting: File > Save As Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools
    Reader 11 can save non-enabled AcroForms (forms created in Acrobat), but not non-enabled XFA forms (forms created in LiveCycle Designer).

  • I cannot save data typed into an Adobe form sent to me..??

    I have been sent an Adobe Form that is a Tender Document that I need to complete.  When I open the Document is states in the top left-hand corner the following...."Please fill out the following form.  You cannot save data typed into this form. 
    Please print your completed form if you would like a copy for your records."
     

    What does the creator of the file need to do to make the form fillable? OR is there a program Bob8527 can download to fill in the form and email?
    Please advise.
    Thanks

  • Users unable to save data in .pdf

    Greetings,
    I created a rather simple form in LiveCycle Designer 8.2.  However, when users open the form in Acrobat Reader 9.0+ they are informed that they cannot save the data in the file and that it must be printed out.  I've looked through Ted Padova/Angie Okamoto's PDF Forms using LiveCycle Bible and have found nothing that can remotely explain this.  Perhaps I have missed a step, an option or saved it correctly.  Can anyone out there give me a hint, an explaination, or a fix for this problem?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    The issue is that the form will have certain restrictions when opened in Reader. For example, users cannot save the data that they have entered into the form.
    There is a step you can take, which is to "Reader Enable" the form before you send it out. There are two approaches:
    You can Reader Enable the form using Acrobat Standard v9 and above or Acrobat Pro v8.
    You can use the full server product LC Reader Extensions ES2 to apply the Reader rights. 
    The features that are available to the user will depend on which was you apply the Reader rights.
    For example:
    In your situation, you are at Option 2: form is not Reader Enabled and the user opens the form in Reader.
    In order to enable the user to be able to save the data in the form, you need to get to Option 3 (enabling the form using Acrobat) OR Option 4 (enabling the form using LC Reader Extensions).
    There is more information here: http://assure.ly/etkFNU.
    Please note that there are licensing restrictions in Reader Enabling a form in Acrobat. Also you need to Reader Enable the form before you send it out to the users.
    Hope that helps,
    Niall

  • How do I disallow users from saving the data they enter into an Editable form?

    Hi all,
    I am working with a client who does NOT want their users to be able to save their data. In other words, when the user opens the PDF file, they can enter data into the editable fields, but they should NOT be able to save that data as part of the PDF.
    Does that make sense?
    My client doesn't want the user to be able to save a local copy of the PDF with any of the data entered onto the form.
    Based on what I've found in my research, as of Version 11, Adobe Reader now allows users to save their data. Unfortunately, my client doesn't want that.
    Any help?
    Thanks,
    Steve

    About the best you can do is include a JavaScript that resets the form when it is saved, so no entered data remains in the fields. The problem with this approach is JavaScript can be disabled, resulting in the form not being cleared and allowing the filled-in form to be saved.
    You can address this with an additional JavaScript that runs when the form is opened that sets all of the fields from read-only to not read-only, allowing the fields to be filled-in. If JavaScript is disabled, the script won't run when the document is opened and the fields will remain read-only and therefore not fillable.
    The user would be able to work around this by having JavaScript enabled when the document is opened and disabling it after filling-in the form but before saving it. Most users would not be aware of how to do this though.
    If there are rules/regulations/laws in place that require something more certain, you'll have to take a different approach.

  • How can I do to acquire and save date in the same time and in the same file when I run continual my VI without interrupti​on.

    I've attached a VI that I am using to acquire amplitude from Spectrum analyzerse. I tried to connect amplitude ouput to the VI Write Characters To File.vi and Write to Spreadsheet File.vi. Unfortunately when I run continual this VI without interruption, labview ask me many time to enter a new file name to save a new value.
    So, How can I do to aquire and save date in the same time and in the same file when I run continual my VI for example during 10 min.
    Thank you in advance.

    Hi,
    Your VI does work perfectly. Unfortunately this not what I want to do. I've made error in my last comment. I am so sorry for this.
    So I explain to you again what I want to do exactly. I want to acquire amplitude along road by my vehicle. I want to use wheel signal coming from vehicle to measure distance along road. Then I acquire 1 amplitude each 60 inches from spectrum analyzer.
    I acquire from PC parallel port a coded wheel signal coming from vehicle (each period of the signal corresponds to 12 Inches). Figure attached shows the numeric signal coming from vehicle, and the corresponding values “120” and “88” that I can read from In Port vi.
    So I want to acquire 1 time amplitude from spectrum analyser each 5
    period of the signal that I am acquiring from parallel port.
    So fist I have to find how can I count the number of period from reading the values “120” and “88” that I am acquiring from In Port (I don’t know the way to count a number of period from reading values “120” and “88”).
    Here is a new algorithm.
    1) i=0 (counter: number of period)
    2) I read value from In Port
    3) If I acquire a period
    i= i+1 (another period)
    4) If i is multiple of 5 (If I read 5 period)
    acquire 1 time amplitude and write to the same
    file this amplitude and the corresponding distance
    Distance = 12*i). Remember each period of signal
    Corresponds to 12 Inches).i has to take these
    values: 5,10,15,20,25,35,40,45,50,55,60............
    5) Back to 2 if not stop.
    Thank you very much for helping me.

  • How do i give a label to a date?

    How do I give a label to a date?
    eg.     7 Aug 1946 = John's birthdate
              22 Dec 1977 = C&J's Wedding
              etc

    cajaar,
    You could use a lookup table to attach memos to dates. As long as there is only one of each date in the table you should be successful. I'm having some difficulty imagining how you would use this ability. Could you give an example?

  • User Defined Table locked when multi users try to save data?

    Hi All,
    I am having a problem with User Define Table (UDT). I am just checking if somebody having the same problem as mine (any patch level).
    I've developed an add-on to save additional data to some UDTs upon saving a Production Order. I added my code in FormDataEvent (After Action = True and ActionSuccess = True).
    Here are my sequences to save the data:
    1. Start Transaction
    2. Remove Existing Data from 3 UDTs linked to the production order number.
    3. Save to table 1, using UserTable object
    4. Call function A to save to table2 , using UserTable object
    5. Call function B to save to table 3, using UserTable object
    6. Commit Transaction.
    Note: I have a try catch and rollback the transaction if any exception thrown by .NET and SAP. Below are parts of my coding to handle exception from SAP
                    If oUserTable.Add() <> 0 Then
                        oCompany.GetLastError(ErrCode, ErrMsg)
                        Throw New ApplicationException(ErrCode & "-" & ErrMsg)
                    End If
    in the try catch block, i add the following code
                If oCompany.InTransaction Then
                    oCompany.EndTransaction(SAPbobsCOM.BoWfTransOpt.wf_RollBack)
                    SBO_Application.MessageBox("[SaveRoute]:" & ex.Message)
                    Return False
                End If
    Now, the issue is in some occasions, when multi users try to save the Production Order, the data get deleted from the UDTs, but some of the data did not get saved yet it did not throw an exception. From our observation, it only happens when multi users are trying to save to the same table.
    Does anybody having the same or similar issue? Really appreciate if you can share on this.
    Many Thanks,
    Harianto Ng

    I Believe you should look carefully where in your code writting, you should start transaction and be sure of using end.transaction commit if the insert sends a succesfull message, and rollback it for negative message.
    I used to start transacción right before .add method
    Wha DBMS are u using?

  • How Do I get the right patches from my keyboard into LOgic??

    This is so confusing. Someone told me I need to download the patch list of my keyboard to make it show up in logic the same way it's showing up in my keyboard. Without it, I'd have to type every patch list of my synth into logic bank and prgram names. How do you guys deal with this?
    PLease help me. This is haunting me for a week now..

  • Can I use data entered in PDF form's field(s) to auto-populate Save As file name?

    Hello,
    I want to automate, as much as possible, the "Save As" process by using some of the data that the user entered in the fillable PDF form.
    For example, I want to include the user's First Name and Last Name that they entered in the form to be part of the saved file name.
    First Name: Bob
    Last Name: Smith
    Therefore, when you select to Save As part of the new file name will already have <BobSmith><today's date>.PDF
    Form was created using LiveCycle Designer 11
    PDF version: 1.7, Adobe Extension Level 8 (Acrobat X)
    Thanks for any information that you can share.
    Regards,
    Roch

    You should try the LiveCycle Designer forum, but from my experience with Acrobat forms it's not possible. What you can do is either save the file using the desired file name and path (without user interaction), if the script runs from a trusted context, or you can prompt the user with the desired file-name for the file, but not enforce them to use it, nor populate it into the Save As dialog itself.

  • Save Data to a Static Form then re-open for adding attachments

    Greetings,
    I have an issue with a form that I would like some help solving.
    1. Form designed in Designer 8 using pdf "image" and laying fields on top.
    2. Form is saved as a static 7 PDF.
    3. When form is opened in Reader (not sure which version(s).) the form needs to be saved with input data AND then reopened to add attachments later.
    The problem seems to be that I can save the data to the static form but then seem to lose the "handle" on the form for later opening and addition of attachments.
    Anyone have any ideas?
    Rick Kuhlmann

    Try this.  By naming the file before hand using a file path control (or a constant on the block diagram), it will write to the file without prompting.
