How do I grey out both Save and Save as in a protected file?

I  have a pdf that I have enabled security on. password to open, no Print/no edit/no copy paste etc. However users can still do 'Save as'.
Can I do something to prevent any form of 'Save' after the file has been opened?
Thanks
Lee

So, your recipient recieved your PDF and you want him to not be unable to save it. Wouldn't a copy/paste Windows or OSX function do the same? What's then the point of not being able to do that in Acrobat? As others have already pointed out, even if you open this PDF in the browser, it is already copied to the hard drive, so your user already has a copy that he can then copy anywhere without Acrobat.

  • How do you grey out/disable fields under a radio button if another radio button is selected in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro?

    How do you grey out/disable fields under a radio button if another radio button is selected in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro?
    I’m creating a form where the user has three options to make a payment.
    1. charge to my credit card
    2. charge associated costs to bank account
    3. By cheque or money order
    My Problem is, under each option, there are required fields that has to be filled out. So if the user picks the first option, charge to my credit card, they would fill out the required fields (credit card number, expiration date etc.). But when they click submit button to submit the form, it won’t let them, because there are required fields under the second option. Also, I have the radio buttons for the three options setup so that if the user holds the shift key and clicks a radio button, it unchecks it. So what I'm trying to do is this: If the user selects the radio button for option 1, the other two options are greyed out/disabled. And if the user holds down the shift key and clicks radio button for option one again, it unchecks the radio button and the other two options are available again. Is there a way to grey out or disable the two other payment options when the other one is picked. I’m assuming I will have to use javascript, but what would the coding be and which field do I write it under?
    Thanks in advance guys

    You will have to use custom JavaScript to access the various properties of the field object.
    The radio button group has a value. When no button is selected that value is "Off". When an individual button has been selected the value for the group will be the option or export value for that individual button.
    Once you have determined the button selected, then you will know the form fields that need to be made required. You use JavaScript to access those fields and change the "read only" property to false, and set the "required" property to true. For the fields associated with the other options, those fields should be reset, made read only, and have the "required" property set to false.

    >> Also, I have the radio buttons for the three options setup so that if the user holds the shift key and clicks a radio button, it unchecks it.
    Radio button in a PDF do not work that way. Only check boxes can be unchecked by clicking on one that has been checked.
    If you plan the coding for the Mouse UP action to test for all possible options and code for each of those options you should have what you want.
    If you want actual code you need to provide a lot more details.
    It is even possible to perform some credit card and bank routing number validations with JavaScript and some check digit formulas.

  • How do you grey out a radio button if a text field is blank in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro?

    How do you grey out a radio button if a text field is blank in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro?
    So this what I'm trying to do:
    (     )   |TEXT FIELD|
    (     )   |TEXT FIELD|
    (     )   |                  |
    (     )   |TEXT FIELD|
    I have a radio button: (     )
    and a text field: |TEXT FIELD|
    The third text field is blank, and I would like for the radio button next to it greyed out (user can't click on it) since the text field is blank. Is this possible to achieve? I'm assuming I'll have to use javascript, but what would the code be and would it be entered in the javascript editor for the text field or the radio button?
    Thanks in advance guys

    Hey, thanks, but it didn't work
    I have the text fields as read only. Could that be why it's not working? Should I make the fields not read only?
    Thanks,

  • How to disable (grey-out) the ticks of a JSlider?

    Hi everyone,
    In my GUI, I have a JSlider that I want to be disabled (greyed out)
    because it should be only actived on my application next version.
    (It is important though to have it to preserve GUI appearence).
    Problem is that I was unable to greyout the ticks even though
    already managed to grey out the slider and the number labels.
    Right now, it is pretty uggly to have a partial disabled slider,
    because due to ticks not being disabled.
    Questions:
    1) Does anyone have an idea of how to do it?
    A small part of my code is shown below:
    JSlider dynSl = new JSlider();
    dynSl.setMajorTickSpacing(1);
    dynSl.setValue(0); //Default
    dynSl.setMaximum(7);
    dynSl.setMinimum(0);
    dynSl.setPaintLabels(true);
    dynSl.setPaintTicks(true);
    dynSl.setFont(new java.awt.Font("Dialog", 0, 9));
    dynSl.setSnapToTicks(true);
    dynSl.setEnabled(false);
    // small code just to put the numbers of the slider smaller
    Enumeration enum = dynSl.getLabelTable().elements();
    while (enum.hasMoreElements()) {
    JLabel elem = (JLabel)enum.nextElement();
    elem.setFont(new Font("Dialog",0,8));
    elem.setEnabled(false);
    2) If not possible, how do I change the colour of a JSlider (including
    the Ticks)?
    My idea is to change Slider's colour to the same grey colour one used
    to disable it, making at the end the slider look as if it was disabled.
    Thanks in advance,
    Jorge

    Hi again,
    Thanks for the help.
    I was trying to avoid not having the ticks at all but it seems to be
    the best choise because I could not solve the problem of greying out
    them.
    I did some more troubleshooting though and for my surprise, if I use
    the same code alone, i.e, a simple frame with just the slider it works
    fine. I even thought that it was related with having Windows LnF as
    opposed to Metal (Java) LnF, but that was not the problem.
    The only thing it comes to mind, is that there may be some problem by including the slider on a GridBagLayout !?!?!?
    Anyway,
    What has no simple solution, solved is! :-)

  • How do I grey out info per line item on a actioned Purchase Requisition ?

    Hi:
    Can any one please tell me how do I grey out all information for a line item (and all other relevant information for that line on the requisition) on a already actioned  Purchase Requisition /  PO.
    i.e. Although PO is already placed for a requisition, user still changes dates, qty's ect on that line item and we want to prevent this.
    Many thanks.
    W.

    Hi
    Check it in OMCQ
    Convert the message "06 152 Purchase orders already exist for this item" into error item.
    If u still want anybody to change the PR itself... if can be controlled via release indicators...
    Check the release indicators for PO/PR, maintain the "changebale"
    Check this also
    Regards,

  • Buy book is grey out in iPhoto and cannot buy book

    Buy book is grey out in iPhoto and cannot buy book

    You get the best help by giving as much information as possible, not as little as possible. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS.  So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Basic things like :
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For instance: 'iPhoto won't export' is best explained by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.
    Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that any helper is simply guessing. More information means you get better assistance.

  • HT4865 right now i share an icloud with my sisters phone how do i log out of hers and make my own for my own phone without deleting either of our apps etc?

    right now i share an icould with my sister's phone how do i log out of hers and make my own for my phone without deleting either of our apps etc on our phone?

    You don't need to worry about apps.  You can continue to share the same ID for the iTunes and App stores but in order to create a new iCloud account you will need to use a different ID (it doesn't need to be the same as your iTunes ID).
    To migrate your phone to your own account,  if you have any photos in photo stream that you want to save on your phone, open your my photo stream album and save them to the camera roll by tapping Edit, then tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share and tap Save to Camera Roll. 
    Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud.  Your sister's phone will not be effected by this.)  When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone.  Next, set up your new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom).  Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to the new account.
    Once your phone is on its own account, you can go to icloud.com on your computer, sign into your account and manually delete any of your sister's data from your account.  She can also delete any of your data from her account.

  • Firefox 4.01 downloads files but the downloads windows greys out the "Open" and "Open containing folder" options and I can't trace the files

    Three days ago I upgraded to Firefox 4.01. I downloaded several files that were ok. Yesterday and today I downloaded one powerpoint file and a an apple *.dmg file.
    On the Download window these two files I can see with the total mb in size. However when I right click the file list in the Download window the "Open" and "Open containing folder" options are greyed out. What is more I cannot find these files anywhere on my computer when I use Windows Explorer to search.
    It seems that this happened after I tried to download a Firefox add on from http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/addons/64761/amazonassist-0.7.2.6-fx.xpi and my antivirus picked up the JS/Kryptik.AK trojan and terminated the connection. Is there a link with the problem I am experiencing?
    I use Windows 7 professional, Firefox 4.01

  • How do you edit out the date and time stamp from a photo

    How do you edit out the date and time stamp from a photo

    You can blur it out with retouch
    The built-in "Retouch" brush in "Edit" mode should suffice, if the background is mostly uniform, and if you set the size of the brush to slightly wider than the bar width of the letters. For example, in this picture I removed the year from the date (in the lower right corner) by using the "retouch" brush and following the contours of the letters. (the screen shot is from iPhoto '11, but iPhoto 9 should give similar results).

  • How can i find out the resolution and accuracy of PXI-6602 module?

    I have a 32 bit  8 channel PXI-6602 counter module.  PXI card is interfaced to PC with MXI-4 link. How can i find out the resolution and accuracy of this system.What is the maximum accuracy and resolution i will get from this system. Because optical signal to cmos conversion signal is given as a input to the counter.

    Hi chandhu,
    Were you referring to the accuracy of the count register or the timing clock? 
    PXI-6602 specifications can be found in the NI 660x Specifications.  The resolution of the count register is, as you’ve noted, 32 bits.  This corresponds to a maximum count value of 4,294,967,295.  As long as all of the edges are in accordance with TTL specifications, the accuracy of the count register is 100%.
    On the other hand, the PXI-6602 baseclock accuracy takes on the baseclock accuracy of the PXI CLK 10 signal.  Again, this is all found in the specifications.
    You may also want to check out the NI 660x User Manual – it contains a lot of details on the operation of these counter/timer devices.
    I hope this helps.  Please post back if you have further questions.
