How to edit pdf so that you can save entered information in Reader?

I have Acrobat Professional 8 at home as part of Adobe CS3 but we only have acrobat reader at work.
My supervisor has an evaluation form that is setup in pdf format and has fillable information boxes such as name, job description, etc. However, you can not save the information you enter into the document. I need to know how I can alter the pdf in Pro 8 so that the information can be saved with just reader.
This is probably a simple one to those who use these programs a lot, but unfortunately I don't so I am kind of behind the learning curve here.
Any help????

When you are talking a business form, the application may be different than the original post. I would suggest you read part 15 of the AA9 EULA (license agreement) that is available from adobe.com. This is where the 500 use limit might apply.
Before you purchace AA9 for the feature, it would be wise to be sure your application would be in line with the EULA, or you will be real ticked at buying AA9 for the feature and then not being able to use it legally. You may want to indicate why you want folks to be able to save the form. If it will not be submitted, then I think you will be fine with AA9.
If it is for submission, then you may have a problem with the 500 use limit. However, saving is not needed to submit the data! The data can simply be imported to the PDF and so you don't need it in that form.

I've heard 2 things: 1)that you can only register the cs5 Student Teacher edition once 2) that you can register the cs5 Student Teacher edition to up to 2 devices. Which one is true?

I need to transfer my Adobe Cs5 software (Student Teacher edition) and license from my old Mac Book Pro to a newer Mac Air. I've heard 2 things:
1)that you can only register the cs5 Student Teacher edition once
2)that you can register the cs5 Student Teacher edition to up to 2 devices
Which one is true? How do I transfer the software and software license?

Regardless of what heard you can do registration-wise, which you only need to do once, you are allowed to have two activated installations. There is no limit to how many times you might activate an installation, but you can only maintain two activated installations at a time. So if you have two machines you can have the software installed and activated on both. If you get a new (third) machine tyhen you would have to deactivate one of the other two machines' installations in order to activate/use the sfotware on the newest one.

Just converted word to PDF so that I can save on iPhone and subsequently use. Where is the file??

Just converted word to PDF so that I can save on iPhone and subsequently use. Where is the file?? I have no idea where it is!! Extremely frustrating and not at all user friendly!! Took my 6.99 British pounds and not a sausage to be had!!

It sounds like you may have purchased a CreatePDF subscription through safari, using our web interface. If this is the case, the good news is that subscription will also work with the (free) Adobe Reader. Simply install the Reader from the App Store:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/adobe-reader/id469337564?mt=8
Once installed, you can then use "Open In" from another app like Mail to open the Word document in Adobe Reader. Reader will show the word doc, but it will also show you a message pointing to the "convert" button (A document with an arrow through it in the toolbar). Pressing this button should prompt you to sign into Acrobat.com. Use the same account you used to purchase your subscription and Reader will upload the word document for conversion, placing it in the Acrobat.com and Outbox section of the Reader. Please let me know if you have trouble!

PDF form that you can type in and save

I am working to create forms that my student athletes will need to type into and save so that they can upload them to our online pre-participation site. Is there any special way I need to save my Adobe PDFs? I saved them normally and one student had no problem with this task....I had another try this and it would not allow them to save the file. So after reading online I saved it as a Reader extended, enable more tools and then they could type and save the document. Is this the way to go? I need them to type in the form, but not mess with the overall outline - just type in the blanks. Thanks

If they're using the latest version of Reader (XI), then you don't need to do anything else. Earlier versions require that you apply the Reader Extended Rights in Acrobat for the file to be savable in Reader. This also has legal implications as to the number of replies you may collect (500).

How to get around problem that you can't pass env between threads?

I get all the typical parameters in a JNI method call, but I need to display callback messages using these parameters from another thread. The main problem is saving the JNIEnv pointer for future use. How do you do that?
EX: - my C program that is turned into a dll:
static JNIEnv *m_env;
static jobject m_jobj;
first_method(JNIEnv* env, jobject jobj, ...) {
// I want to save the env and jobj globally
// so it can be used in callback
m_env = env;
m_jobj = env->NewGlobalRef(jobj);
// start the thread that generates callbacks
// callback method - called by another thread
second_method(...) {
// use the global variables to call a Java method
jclass clazz = m_env->GetObjectClass(m_jobj);
jmethodID mid = m_env->GetMethodID(clazz, ...);
jstring msg = m_env->NewStringUTF("A message");
m_env->CallVoidMethod(m_jobj, mid, msg);

You have to register each thread (there is a method.) Then there is another method (or maybe the same one) that returns the env for the thread.

How can i manipulate this pdf so that I can save it?

I need to remove the restrictions or what ever on this pdf so I can save it. I dont want to use pdfprinter or any other 3rd party software, I just want to remove the restrictions off this document.
Document can be found here.

(A list of "if"s...): Adobe Acrobat. But it is quite obvious that the tax office wants you to print the form, fill it in by hand, and send it back, and doesn't want you to save it once filled, so it shouldn't be all that easy.

Can you create a form that you can save to disk?

I created a form for a client. While testing, I got a prompt that the file cannot be saved when completed. It can only be printed. What I'm trying to do is create an estimate form for my client he can fill and save. He then can email or print the form to get client approval. Thanks in advance.

Hello graffiti,
You can send out as many forms as you wish however you can only collect responses from 500 recipients according to the EULA:
16.8.3 For any unique Extended Document you may only either (a) Deploy such Extended Document to an unlimited number of unique recipients but shall not extract information from more than five hundred (500) unique instances of such Extended Document or any hardcopy representation of such Extended Document containing filled form fields; or (b) Deploy such Extended Document to no more than five hundred (500) unique recipients without limits on the number of times you may extract information from such Extended Document returned to you filled-in by such recipients. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, obtaining additional licenses to use Acrobat Standard, Acrobat Pro, or Adobe Acrobat Suite shall not increase the foregoing limits (that is, the foregoing limits are the aggregate total limits regardless of how many additional licenses to use Acrobat Standard, Acrobat Pro, or Adobe Acrobat Suite you may have obtained).
If Mr. Met is going to receive back in excess of 500 responses then indeed he would need to get the Reader server product.

Can I control the dialog "To stay on the page so that you can save..."

I'm supporting an app where the developers created a dialog box in js that mimics completing of things like orders and opportunities; in this case it is firing from activity forms. It acts upon the state of related, custom entity records -- a set status
button on a grid on an activity. It works but only when the user makes the counter-intuitive selection of "OK" (OK to abandon changes.)
Worse than that, having selected "OK" the user has now put the activity form in a state where it can be lost. Navigating away from the unsaved activity no longer warns of the impending doom of the record just entered.
Most importantly, can I "re-activate" the warning dialog so the users would have to click "OK" again to lose the activity?
And/or can I trap the event to keep the initial warning away from the user and act as if "OK" was not clicked and still get out of the dialog?
I hope that makes sense.

Editting PDF documents that were created by a MAC doesn't work because of font incompatability. How can we get MAC fonts and load in our Adobe Acrobat Pro 9?

If it's a Mac font and you're on Windows, you can't. If you are also on a Mac, you'll need to purchase the fonts (fonts are generally non-transferable, like software. One of the reasons pdf exists), install them and try your edits.
But it's best to edit the original document and create a new pdf when finished.

How to get PDF file that has been transformed into docx into my filing system so I can work on it???

How can I get the PDF file that was transformed into a docx file into my filing system to be able to work on it and translate it as the customer requested?

THanks for your reply.
Well what happens is I bought the program. It gives you a button to click,
you log in and then a box opens up asking you to select the file, I go into
my filing system (in Windows explorer) select the file, and the program
converts it into docx, my choice. I can read it there and when I try to
copy and paste it into my file where the PDF version is saved, it behaves
like an "image", and I can't save it.... or it saves likes something you
save on the internet, so you have to go into internet every time you want
to see it. I have also pressed any amount of buttons to see if it will
give me the option to save it any other way, and have found nothing. What
I would need is a file in docx.format that I can edit. People send me
things in PDF and sometimes I can just copy it off the PDF file and save it
in WOrd, then I can translate it for them. But sometimes the PDF file
doesnt allow me to copy the text. If it is in image form, I cannot work on
it. It means printing it, so I can copy type it into Word... and for that
I certainly wouldnt need to buy a program. Its just double the work and
ends up that the job takes twice as long.!
Sorry if I am a bit dumb with informatics. But I simply could not find
any way whatever to copy the PDF file that was transformed into Word, in a
format that would enable me to edit it.
Kindest regards,
Margery

How do you add non-Garage band instruments into a Logic project so that you can hear them on playback?

How do you add non-Garage band instruments (orchestral instruments) into a Logic Pro (8) project so that you can hear those insrtruments' sounds on playback? I've tried to understand and follow the Logic Pro 8 User Manual, but the process comes off as so complex and the writing so technical that it does not help but only confuses.
To be precise - I want to add instruments (orchestral) that are not offered in the current Garage band menu which is offered in the Mixer's channel strip menus for Logic Pro 8. To be clear, the instruments that are offered are Bass / Drum Kits / Guitars / Mallets / Organs / Pianos and Keyboards / Synth Basics / Synth Leads / Synth Pads. Most of these that I've tried seem to work and give their characteristic sound when placed in a particular channel and playback is clicked.
However - there is one orchestra instrument offered in the standard Logic Pro 8 Mixer channel menu and it's the item labelled "Performance - 000 flute 1 or 001 flute 1." And it is this instrument that presents a problem. When I click on it and choose it from the menu and enter it as the instrument of choice for a specfic channel / track in my Logic Pro project arrangement, when playing back the music for the overall piece this particular track, the flute, does not playback and produce the notes (Midi events) in the track in the sound of the flute. Instead, nothing comes out at all. I can't imagine why this does not work. Any ideas, anyone? Again, when choosing this instrument for a track and clicking the playback no flute sound is forthcoming. Why not? I have not tried them all, but when most of the other various types of keyboards, such as an electric piano or an organ, are chosen for a track the playback successfully renders the sound of these instruments. Why then does playback not produce the sound of the flute when it has clearly been chosen to play and sound the Midi events given it?
Anyway, the overall, larger issue for me is the inability I have to choose and get non-Garageband instruments (largely orchestral) to play the Midi events given on various tracks. If my guess is correct then technically, orchestral instruments not offered in the standard Logic Pro 8 Garageband Mixer channel menu are referred to as external Midi sampled instruments - still, IMHO the process is not clearly spelled out in the User Manual. The simple step by step process whereby a non-Garage band instrument, say an orchestral instrument, is placed in a channel replete with Midi event (notes) waiting to be played should be easy, logical and given in a simple to follow format, but is not.
What with all the talk of routes, busses, auxillary channels, GM devices, GM mixers, audio bins, libraries and audio files this Logic Pro User is confused to the max. Can someone please help me and, in simple English, describe the step by step process whereby presumably external sampled orchestral instruments can be successfully employed, in any given Logic Pro arrangement project, to render their characteristic sounds upon playback?
On my two Macs, one a laptop and one a much larger Mac, I have any number of the GSO (Garritan Symphony Orceshtra) and Vienna Symphony Orchestra instrument library samples - and yet - I've yet to figure out how to actually get them INTO a Logic Pro project of any kind! To put this as a question, even as a humble request, how can I make good use of these orchestral sample libraries in a Logic Pro project? Can someone steer my to a clear resolution of this issue. I'd sincerely appreciate it! Thanks all!

David, you understand that this is professional software and is not necessarily meant to be easy but is in fact designed to give the professional user as many choices as possible, that's why it's in the Pro Apps section. You WILL need to learn about buses, GM Devices, Audio Bins, Libraries...etc..etc if you intend to use Logic.
That said, you are looking in the wrong place in the channel strip.
May I offer you advice?
Go here:
http://documentation.apple.com/en/logicpro/
Open "Exploring Logic Pro" (a short PDF Document). Pay special attention to chapter 3. Also pay special attention to the included graphics of the channel strips.
I encourage you to read the whole document as it will clear up many things... even though it's a Logic 9 document.

I can't see how to edit PDF inside Portfolio for Acrobat X. In Acrobat 9 Pro

I can't see how to edit PDF inside Portfolio for Acrobat X. I can do this in Acrobat 9 Pro with the Document pull down menu. Did they take this away in Acrobat X?

Whether it's maxed or not doesn't make any difference.
The bottom part of the image/scroll bar is always under the Windows taskbar any time the URL is opened.
It is always fixed by doing something, either switching to and back from another window, or turning on and off one or more toolbars.
That shouldn't be necessary. The bottom part should be visible when the URL is opened.

You can't. If the file is made read-only via the file system, the user will prompted to save as a new file if they attempt to save.
