How to Optimize an xml PDF that has already been filled out

I have created a pdf file in Livecycle and forgot to uncheck embed fonts. I have already sent out the pdf form and Extended Features in Adobe Reader.  I have received over 300 forms back. Is there anyway to reduce the file size with forms already filled out? Are there any work arounds?
PLEASE HELP!! I appreicate any assistance you can provide.

Although there is a way to use the Action Wizard to re-import the XML it can be tedious to appropriately rename all the XML files.
I made a web app that my department uses to batch update all the PDFs that the recipients filled out into the latest version of the PDF.
I made a standalone version you can use here.
This application is AS IS. Use at your own risk and expense.
I'll expect my cheque in the mail ; )

  • How do I get a refund on Export PDF that has ALREADY been agreed

    On 1/21-1/22 I tried to 'renew' a subscription for Export PDF. By some error (maybe mine - I just dont understand the whole thing) my Bank was immediately charged for two subscriptions, each at a different price. I immediately "chat"ted with several  reps (it was difficult to get onto the chat and find out how to cancel) and was assured that both would be cancelled and refunded. They weren't!
    I waited a week. Was again frustrated by the chat hookup, and tried the 'cloud' retail product tel #, assuming it was wrong but that I could be switched to the correct one. Had a very pleasant chat, was assured that both would be cancelled and refunded, received 2 e-mails confirming the cancellations, each with a seperate "Case #". Felt pretty good! It had only taken me a week of reasonably diligent effort to get a very simple thing done! IT WASN"T DONE! (Yes, I apologize - I know I'm loud - but by now I've got steam coming out of my ears!)
    Today I got an e-mail, telling me that the refund had been processed and the case # would be closed. I looked at my bank, and only one had been refunded! I reviewed all the other e-mails and the notes from the telephone calls and chats to be sure I hadn't misunderstood something. But, no I hadn't. I went to my Adobe on-line and looked up 'my orders' history. Sure enough one had been invoiced and refunded ( the lesser charge of the two) but the other had ONLY BEEN INVOICED - NOT CANCELLED. And it seems that every piece of this transaction generates a new "order" , "case" or some other "reference #" - none of which are tied together, except by the invoice amount, when it is mentioned - which it typically IS NOT.
    My question, then, is : How can I get past this absolute frustration over every aspect of my interaction with Adobe and GET THIS TAKEN CARE OF?????????

    Hi Stacy,
        What frustration? (Just kidding !)
        As I mentioned, one of the two charges has been  refunded. Credited by
    Adobe on Jan 28, I believe I received it in my bank on Jan  30.
        The other charge, $25.37 of order # AD011017507,  has not been received
    by my bank yet. But this can't be that much of a surprise,  and has nothing
    to do with "10 business days" for refunds to post.
        To this minute, "My Orders" on Adobe website shows  that the order #
    AD011017507  was invoiced on January 22, but that no  credit invoice has been
    posted against this order to this moment!
        Can you begin to understand the frustration of  being unable, through
    all attempts to untangle this mess, starting within  one hour of the original
    order, with I believe nine different "Chats",  telephone calls and, finally
    a "problem" posting,  stretching over more  than thirteen days. Of course
    it doesn't make much sense to devote this much  attention to less than $50
    worth of stuff, but I do not let things like this  dangle.
        And can you imagine how loathe I am to deal with  Adobe for fear of
    some real problem?
        At any rate, I would certainly be pleased if you  can suggest a way for
    me to extricate myself from this. Any help would be  GREATLY appreciated!
        Thanks for your time and any trouble,
        Stephen Ellis

    Hi there,
    Not exactly sure what you wanna do... but here is what I've understood...
    You can remove any old Transport Set in your Portal by going to the Browser Transport Sets within the Builder page over the Administer tab.
    As to import a new Transport Set into the Production server, what I suggest is that you make a valid backup (so that in case you have any problem it is easier to revert back) and later on override it (or if it is a major change, it would be better to drop the Page Group and reimport it clean) or import it clean to your Production server. Validate all things... and that's it.
    I hope it helps...
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • How do I make a correction to a document that has already been sent out for e-signature?

    I thought I posted this question this morning but I don't see it in the forum so I'm posting again.  I apologize if it shows up twice.
    For example, let's say I have a 40-page document that I need someone to sign. I spend 15 minutes to add all of the "initial here" and "sign here" fields to the Echosign document.
    Then I send the document out for signature.
    The recipient says, "It looks like you missed a spot where I was supposed to initial on the document."
    It seems the only way I know how to fix this now is to:
    1. Void the current document
    2. Re-import the PDF from my computer into Echosign
    3. Spend another 15 minutes inserting all the "initial here" and "sign here" fields.
    4. Re-send out the document for him to sign
    There must be a better way, right?  Docusign says they have the ability for the document sender to make a correction to an existing document and re-send it out, and there is also a capability for the signer to make corrections to the document (which would be initialed by any other signers later)
    Mike

    Esign services don't allow for red-lining. The assumption is that final approved documents are used.
    So indeed if you spot a mistake which means it voids the contract you indeed cancel the outstanding one and start over.
    To avoid re-doing field do one of 2 things:
    Upload the document as library template and enable form field layers.
    Should you need to start over, upload the document again, but apply the previously created form field layer:
    first under the dashboard use the add template to library
    check the option for Create as reusable form field layer
    upload a document and add fields as needed.
    When you upoad the same or similar document, youcan apply the form field layer:
    https://helpx.adobe.com/document-cloud/help/reusable-form-field-layer.html
    or markup the source document with text tags:
    https://helpx.adobe.com/document-cloud/help/adding-esign-services-agreement-fields.html
    this means the form fields will already be part of the document prior to uploading to eSign services.

    I know this email is confusing and really hard to understand...perhaps now you will know how i've been feeling--lost and confused with all the mis-information, with a hit and miss phone, and out of time with all the 1 1/2 hr to 2 hrs EACH wasted on this issue.
    On top of all this, I can't even find out how to file a complaint with anyone higher up than Customer Service.
    I hate to tell you this, but you didn't write an email. You wrote a discussion post on the Verizon Wireless Community forum which is a public peer to peer forum. Unfortunately since you didn't mark your post as a question, the VZW reps that roam this community won't ever see your post. Before you re-post it, don't. Duplicate posts get removed from the community.
    I see there were several missteps both by the reps and yourself in your post. First you should have insisted on returning the phone within the 14 day return policy period. Second which Samsung Galaxy mini model did you purchase? The S3 mini or the S4 mini? Did you do any research prior to deciding on this device. The reps at that time deflected the easiest course of action, by trying to get you to replace the phone under insurance instead of returning the phone. The Early Edge payment option requires the current phone on the line using the early Edge must be returned to Verizon Wireless. Did you once considered going to a third party site like Swappa to purchase a gently used device for your daughter?

  • How do I open url link that has already been authorized by another user?

    Hi.
    I couldn't download Adobe Digital Editions on my MacBook Pro so I used my friends computer to download it and read a url link eBook.
    Now I have downloaded ADE on my MacBook Pro but I can't open the url link on my ADE, it says E_LIC_ALREADY_FULFILLED_BY_ANOTHER_USER.
    How can I open it? Or do I have to buy the same book? What do I do?

    Since book is authorized using your friend's ID, I am afraid you can't open the book using your user ID.
    Either you have to use your friend's ID, or Join the accounts (this way both of you can open each others' books) or purchase the book again (it is the simplest, but costly solution).

    How can I verify credit for an itunes card that has already been redeemed?  My Grandson and I both redeemed itune cards on our shared account about the same time. There isn't a credit balance after his purchase?

    Have you checked the account's purchase history to see if anything could have used up the balance : See your purchase history in the iTunes Store - Apple Support ?
    If there aren't any purchases then try logging out and back into the account (e.g. on your iPad tap on your id in Settings > Stores and then log back in) and see if a balance then shows on it. My account's balance shows at the top right of the store's page on my computer's iTunes, by clicking on my name towards the top right of the iTunes screen, and by logging in to view my account via the Store > View Account menu option. On my iPad devices it shows at the bottom of, for example, the Featured tab in the App Store app under my account id (or you can view your account via Settings > Stores and it should show on the screen that you are taken to)

Once paid for a program incomplete. I also liked that the AppStore itself had a button to reinstall programs already bought, because it is very hard to understand how to do this in the store, only option is to install and hide purchase, and how do I reinstall, attention'm talking about reinstalling a computer mac, not an ipad or iphone.

    Muse can open .muse files only. Sites downloaded to your hardrive as HTML cannot be imported to Muse. Pages need to be designed in Muse in order to be saved as a Muse project that you can always publish to the web.

  • How to unrelease a task that has already been relesed?

    Hi -
    I would like to unrelease a task that has already been relesed.  By unreleasing, I would like to remove some unnecessary objects from the transport.
    Any ideas?
    Regards,
    -Sonny

    I have requested basis to merge the request.
    The old transport had released tasks with some unwanted objects.  By copying to new transport, I was hoping to remove unwanted objects and then release the tasks of new transport.
    However, the tasks of copied transports are already released and it does not allow to remove anything.
    Could the copied tasks be in unreleased state?

  • "Contacting server for information" when selecting a mail that has already been read

    In Outlook 2013 using an Imap/google account I very often the message “Contacting server for information” when selecting a mail that has ALREADY been read. I am not trying to forward or reply just simply selecting the mail. Why is the program trying to get
    information from the server that it already did receive once?
    How do I get Outlook to stop this ridicules behavior?

    Hi,
    Does this issue happen on each email you selected?
    Outlook displays this message whenever it needs to load content in your email, but the required content is being downloaded slowly or there is a connectivity issue with the content location.
    Please try to go to File > Options > Trust Center > Trust Center Settings > Automatic Download and untick the check box labelled "Don’t Download Pictures Automatically in HTML E-mail Messages or RSS Items". Click OK and then test again.
    In addition, if the email has a linked image, the image will not be downloaded locally on the system and it will be downloaded every time you open the email.
    Besides, some third-party add-in may also cause such issue. Please try to open Outlook in safe mode and check if this issue continues. To do this, exit Outlook, press Windows key + R to open the Run command, type
    outlook /safe and press Enter.
    Please let me know the result.

    hi
              We just encountered this problem while load testing using JMeter. While it may not be the same scenario, we have found that we can consistently trigger this error if:
              a) multiple threads from the same client are invoking the service (i.e. a JMeter using JavaSamplerClient can do this)
              b) the web service is conversational according to the polling design pattern recommended in the WLW doco: i.e.
              startQuery()(one-way) conversation phase = start
              checkQueryStatus() conversation phase = continue
              fetchQueryResponse()conversation phase = finish
              c) buffering is enabled for the startQuery() operation.
              d) the number of threads > 3 (might occur very infrequently <= 3 - cant remember)
              This is reproducable in our WLS/WLW 8.1 SP2/SP3 environment.
              With buffering enabled - errors occur
              With buffering not enabled - no errors
              On reflection, buffering isn't really needed for our usage so we removed it, however the errors might indicate a bug or unsupported use case
              Regards
