How do I make a form compatible in all versions of Adobe Reader and various browsers?

I have created a fillable form in Adobe Live Cycle Designer ES 8.2 and the form is available for download on our company's website. Many users are experiencing trouble with the fields not being able to be filled in. I have Adobe Acrobat 9 on my computer. I do know that people using Adobe Reader X have not been able to use the form. I also know that there are issues when viewing/using the form in web browsers. I really need some help as I have exhausted all avenues that I can think of. I have three forms that I created and some people experience problems with only one form, some people have trouble with two, etc. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

There are three forms.
Form #1

Form #2

  • PDF Form Requires a newer version of Adobe Reader

    New at this...Created my form in Live Cycle 8.0/Professional 8. Throughout company we are using Acrobat Reader 7.0 and are not at this time looking to upgrade. When our users open this form, get "This PDF form requires a newer version of Adobe Reader..." and prompts them to upgrade. Is there anyway I can get rid of this message...a way to make my form know that users will be opening in 7.0 and accept without error?
    Also, I'm not able to get the Submit to Email button to work...getting "This operation is not permitted"...how can I fix?
    Funny thing is I had been able to get the e-mail button to work at one time, but now, all of the sudden, it doesn't want to work...even on my machine which has Live Cycle/Professional 8 loaded?????
    Thanks!

    Geo,
    Thanks for the quick response. Tried and received: "This PDF document contains an Adobe XML form. Such files cannot be optimized.
    Help...thanks again

  • Designer form prompts Reader X error:"This PDF form requires a newer version of Adobe Reader"

    I have a PDF form that was created using LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2. PDF version 1.6, so it's good for Reader 7.x and above.
    When someone using Adobe Reader X tries to open the form, they get this javascript error message:
    "This PDF form requires a newer version of Adobe Reader. Without a newer version, the form may be displayed, but it might not work properly. Some form elements might not be visible at all. In an internet connection is available, clicking OK will download and install the latest version."
    Is there anything I can do to the form that would make this error message go away? Is this a know issue with Adobe Reader X or Designer?

    Is there any code running on the form?
    Reader X has come out with additional security features that must be disabled to get any PDF form w/code to work.
    Open Adobe Reader X --> click on Edit --> Preferences.  Under the General Category, uncheck "Enable Protected Mode at startup" (last checkbox in the dialog box).  Click OK and try to open your form.

  • This PDF form requires a newer version of Adobe reader !?

    Hi there
    I use LiveCycle 8 and I design forms for a target audience using Acrobat Reader 7..
    My problem is whatever I put in a form, I get a really annoying message when opened in Acrobat reader 7
    This PDF form requires a newer version of Adobe reader, Without a newer version, the form may be displayed but not work properly etc....
    This doesn't inspire confidence for the user.
    I get this message even if I open a new form, add a single textfield and save as Acrobat 7 PDF form.
    Is there a way around this ?
    Thanks
    Chris

    I am not too sure, I thought that saving as Acrobat 7 pdf,would do that. Is that not the case ? Are you referring to something else ?
    Thanks

  • Is InDesign 2.0 compatible with all versions of Adobe Pro?

    Is InDesign 2.0.2 compatible with all versions of Adobe Professional?
    For years, I created InDesign documents using 2.0.2, placing PDF documents created using Acrobat Distiller 6.0.1 (Windows) with no issue.  At the beginning of 2010, my software was updated from Adobe Pro 6 to Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 with no change to InDesign.
    When I place PDF documents created using the newer 9 version, I receive an error, "This PDF document was saved with security settings which prevent its pages from being placed."  I am unable to decipher what needs to be changed.  Under the security properties of the PDF documents created using version 6 and 9, there are NO security settings.
    Is there an action step I can take when placing the PDF documents (version 9) into InDesign 2.0?

    In Acrobat 9, open the PDF.
    Go to the Document Menu
    Select Reduct File Size
    Set the compatability level
    Alternately, Export the PDF to PDF/X, and select the 1a option. This should 'dumb down' the PDF enough for ID 2 to accept it.

  • 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 make the form fields show all inputted text?

    I am trying to create forms to collect customer data.  Currently, when I get them back from the customer, if they have typed in more words than the field box allows for, we have to scroll to read it all.  When we go to print the form, only the text that fits in the box will print.  Help!

    Your choices are:
    Make the field larger.
    Limit the number of characters that can be placed in a field.
    Export o Excel.
    Add a page with one large field with the same name as the problem field.
    Create a dynamic PDF using LiveCycle.

  • HT5988 I downloaded Mavericks and now my WD Smartware that I use for Time Machine is no longer compatible with this OSX version?  How do I make that unit compatible?  olefromca

    I downloaded Mavericks and now my WD Smartware that I use for Time Machine is no longer compatible with this OSX version?  How do I make that unit compatible?  olefromca

    I agree entirely, been messing with this since the upgrade to Mavericks but I didn't find it quite as easy as uninstalling the WD smartware as it still operates when you plug the drive back in - I think it gets loaded onto the drive and runs from within (?). The advice from WD was that time machine was faulty and I should contact Apple...thanks guys!
    Anyway, for the OP's benefit, this is what I found:
    1. My problem was that time machine couldn't see any further back than before the Mavericks install, but if I opened up and interrogated the WD drive, the old backups were still there.
    2. When TM started doing new backups, it overwrote the ones that it could see, not the oldest ones on the drive. This indicated to
    me that the WD software had somehow partitioned off the old backups and excluded that part of the drive from being overwritten. Of course, as the drive was practically full, it meant that any new backups wouldn't fit in the available space.....
    3. The only way I could find to resolve this was to use the disc utility to erase and repartition the external drive. This will obviously remove all of the old files and backups, but I was more concerned about keeping a current profile as backup rather than a load of stuff from months ago.
    4. Anyway, what happens after the eraseure has completed is that you get the WD icon on the desktop, and you're invited to install the software - this means the software has now been deleted. Juts don't reinstall it, just let TM do it's backup and all is well.
    Usual disclaimers and warnings about keeping another copy of your system etc. obviously apply, and I know this is a radical move to delete all your old data but it worked for me. I guess I didn't appreciate that you could use the external drive without the software that came with it and just followed the screen guide.
    I'm also aware that if you don't want to use TM to do a complete restore and only want to find one old version of a document, this is difficult. However, you can then install the WD software and find the file but you'll then have to do this all again.....

  • How can I make a form show complex composite data?

    How can I make a form show complex composite data?
    We would like a form to display the following information:
    Employee Names as the columns, 1 row for each calendar day, and each item in the block containing the total sales amount (and other information) for that employee for that day.
    This would require the block to function as a (composite) crosstab report.
    Here is an example:
    We have employees: Jane, John, Jim, and Janice
    We would like to see their total sales for the following days: 5/1 .. 5/5
    Jane John Jim Janice
    5/1 50 8 10 3 30 5 20 7
    5/2 40 7 60 8 10 2 30 4
    5/3 20 3 50 8 70 9 50 9
    5/4 51 8 40 7 40 8 50 8
    5/5 10 1 20 2 90 10 10 2
    We have a table with records of each day, for each employee, and their sales for that day.
    There is a possibility our list of employees can change as well as the number of days.
    Anyone tried doing anything like this with a form? We don't want to just embed a report because we would like to include other data as well besides what is mentioned above and we would like them to be able to change some of that data. Thanks in advance for any help.

    I have a VERY similar problem where I want to have this matrix on the form with six days worth of data (three columns for each day) for my data table. I have done as Momen has suggested and created a view (using SQLPLUS):
    create table weekdays (weekday varchar2(3), date_x date);
    drop view employee_absences_v;
    create view employee_absences_v as
    select weekday,
    absence_date,
    hours,
    absence_code_lvid,
    adjustment_status_lvid
    from employee_absences ea, weekdays wd;
    that hopefully provides a row for each day of the week for my data table. The view is created OK but I'm not sure how to get it into the form properly. Also, I am using the form to CREATE rows in the data table not just SELECT and DISPLAY and there may or may not be a row of data for a corresponding day which is going to be a problem for me using this view method, I think. Let me know how this goes and if you get your form to work and how? Momen, your method appeals to me but it's not 100% clear how to get it to work in a form?

  • How can I make my form be a certified document?

    Hi all,
    In my form, I want to export xml by using the script "Reference_Syntax.exportData( [ STRING param1 [, BOOLEAN param2 ] ])",
    for example, xfa.host.exportData("filename.xml",0).
    However, it is invalid. 
    It says that "This parameter1 is only valid on certified documents where the user has sufficient
    permissions".
    But how can I make my form be a certified document, or how can I get the sufficient permissions?
    Script "xfa.host.exportData("",0)" can be valid, but what I need is specifying the location and file name so that users can export xml just by clicking the button.
    Can I achieve this function?
    Waiting for your reply, thanks a lot!
    Ellie

    Please take a look at this discussion. Also, are your end users using Adobe Reader? If so, your document must be Reader Enabled withed LiveCycle RE to use the import / export xml functionality.

    Numbers will do the calculations, but it doesn't read minds.
    The formulas shown in my previous post assume a table arranged like the example below:
    The results in the bottom three rows (Apr, May and Jun) are correct for the simple formulas given and for the data entered in the Amount column as the empty cells are evaluated as containing zero. In practice, you would want a formula that suppressed the calculation until something was entered in that row of the Amount column. That's easy enough to add, should you think doing so will be useful.
    But it won't make Numbers read your mind.

  • How can I make a rule to mark all messages sent to Mail Trash as Read?

    How can I make a rule to mark all messages sent to Mail Trash as Read?
    When I look at some emails on my phone, I can see from the title that I don't need to read the email so I delete it without opening it. When I go to my Macbook Pro and open mail, the number of unread messages in my Trash shows next to the name. It drives me nuts. Can I just set a rule to mark all messages sent to trash as read? If that isn't possible, I'd take just making the number not show beside the Trash folder.

    Just in the case that I actually do need to go back to them for some reason. I have some OCD tendencies which is also why the number beside the folder drives me nuts.
