How do I use Adobe to Edit PDF files, I have an application form I need to Edit?

I have an application form that is in PDF format, I wish to edit this form by adding text to specific fields, how do I go about doing this?

If the file has fields - actual PDF fields, you just type. The text goes in the fields.
Or do you want to turn it into a fillable form?
Or do you want to fill in, a non fillable form, just once?
By the way if you have an application form and it isn't fillable, they DON'T expect you to fill it. Just print it and treat it like it came in the mail.

  • On one site... FireFox always asks what application to use to open a pDF even with "Do this automatically..." select. How do I make it always use Adobe Reader for PDF files?

    When I click on a PDF file it always presents the "You have chosen to open ..." dialog box. Even though it knows it is a PDF file and should use the Adobe Reader. I've checked the Tools / Options ... Application section which is set correctly as well. I've tried setting it to other aps too. yet it always asks. How do I get around this?

    Have you looked at the Knowledge Base articles [[Troubleshooting plugins]] or [[Using the Adobe Reader plugin with Firefox]]? There is some good information in there. You may want to try reinstalling the plugin as well or updating it if it is out of date.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • Using Adobe Reader for PDF Files

    I am having a heck of a problem using Adobe Reader to open PDF files.
    Work very well until last week when I downloaded the upgrade for the program. I had been using Adobe5 (6), upgraded to Adobe Reader 9. Now, I can not open a pdf file that is sent to me. Nor, can I save a file into the PDF format.
    I have done the pass word, permission thing, have removed the Adobe 9 from the hard drive and than reloaded it.
    Still have the same problems.
    Does anyone have any suggestions that they would be willing to provide that might get me back into business?

    Well up front I would like to thank all of you that responded, and tell you that I am sorry that I have not posted back. But, I have been trying to incorporate and to ensure that I have been following the suggestions that you have provided.
    Let me provide a bit more of information:
    I am trying to safe a chart from the Reunion Family program, which I have been using for a few years.
    I did save one Descendant chart and was able to send it to a group of the family as a PDF file. This was using adobe 5. After I sent that chart, I upgraded the adobe 5 software to adobe reader 9. Since the upgrade I have not been able to save a chart in the Graphic File.pdf. The file saves but when I open the file it is a one page blank document. However, I can go into preferences and by changing the view size, it will show the entire document (sometimes). I tried to save that document and send it, but the people who receive it stated that it comes as a blank page. I also, saved the file as a JPEG and sent it, but the people stated that it comes as a very narrow column, unreadable, and can not be open.
    I have went back and removed the installed upgrade and started from scratch, I am using the correct software package, and after uploading it, I do run the permissions program.
    So, once again I am trying to obtain some knowledge on how to safe the descendant file as a PDF file and send it by e mail.
    It is driving me crazy-and once again proves that the machine is much smarter than I.
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • How do you use time machine to find files you have deleted?

    I have time machine set up with a USB drive. I have spotlight set up to index my backups.
    If I go into the finder and type "order confirmation" it finds the PDF file with those words in it just fine.
    If I delete that file from my desktop, it fails to find it. So then I enter Time Machine while still in the middle of the search, and press the back arrow to go back in time until spotlight can find it. It correctly goes back just one hour (my last backup had that file in it since I just deleted it) but it doesn't actually display that file.
    So that's a simple test case of my having no idea how to get Spotlight and Time Machine to work together.
    Am I doing it wrong?

    You can't edit a file with PDF Pack, but you should be able to convert it to a Word document, and if you are really lucky edit THAT and make a new PDF. Don't expect too much though!

  • How do I get firefox to open pdf files with Adobe reader instead of google?

    Firefox is unsucessfully using google to open pdf files.  How do I get firefox to open pdf files with Adobe reader?
    Message was edited by: veeryTalonted

    "Google" is a search engine (website) and NOT (repeat: NOT) a PDF viewer. It can't and won't open PDFs in any real or imaginable way.
    Firefox added their own proprietary PDF viewer with version 20 - they're on 21 now. I'll be the first to admit "it sucks". You CAN'T fill in PDF forms with it, and you can't email them from the page like with Opera, Safari or Chrome (which use the reader plug-in still).
    Unfortunately, the ONLY option you have now that they've added it and killed the ability for the Reader plug-in to work with Firefox, is Tools>Options>Applications - select Portable Document Format(PDF) and choose "Use Adobe Reader (Default)". What that will do is FORCE Firefox to download the PDF instead of opening it in their terrible PDF viewer in the browser window.
    Or... use one of the other browsers I mentioned. They're all free.

    How to apply special right to the PDF  file using the LiveCycle Rights Management Server.?
    I want  to edit bar code field data using Adobe Reader. Bar Code field was designed and data was changing using Acrobat X1 Professional (Trial Version). But can't do so in adobe reader.

    I think that product has nothing to do with it. You would use LiveCycle Reader Extensions.

  • How can i edit pdf files ?

    how can i edit pdf files ?

    What kind of "editing" operations do you have in mind?
    You can add/delete/change annotations (such as Sticky Notes or Highlight/Strikeout/Underline text markups) or fill out forms in Adobe Reader.  Some people (mistakenly) call it "editing".  But, strictly speaking, it is not.
    Because Adobe Reader is a PDF viewer, you are not able to edit the content of PDF documents.  For example, you cannot
    add/edit images or text
    insert/delete/extract pages
    convert PDF from/to other formats
    You need a PDF editor such as Adobe Acrobat Pro or Standard, which is not a free product.
