How to repetively save a form with a single name.

I have to fill in, save, edit, save, update, save several U.S. govt forms that require me to save as a new name each time. This may require me to end up with 5 different file names of the same form. If I can save it as PDF Rev 1, why can't each change be resaved to PDF Rev 1 (if I OK overwrite) instead of making me create PDF Rev 2, PDF Rev 3, etc., etc., ad infinitum after each change, no matter how minor (e.g., correct spelling of one word)?
How can I get around this constant renaming of the same file?

The iPad does not have a file system like the PC or Mac so there isn't a "SAVE AS" option. I'm not sure how a form in Numbers is being stored but most apps store their forms as records with each record having some unique record name. The record should be able to be viewed, renamed and exported into some other file format such as CSV, PDF, XML, etc.
If you can't get Numbers to work, I'd try FormConnect. I've been using it for about a year now and I'm very pleased with how it works.

How can I save a form with database connections with the info w/o requiring the connection again?

I have a form in LiveCycle ES2 that has an ODBC connection to an Access 2007 database. The form works great and all the data populates the form just fine, but next I need a way to save the generated form with the data so it can be sent and signed by people who won't (and can't) have a connection to the database. I am developing on a Windows 7, 64 bit machine and have Adobe Acrobat X Pro, and Adobe Reader X.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks for the quick response. I tried saving the form as Reader Extended in Acrobat Pro, but if I close the form I saved as extended, it still prompts for the data connection. Is there some setting in Adobe LiveCycle in the properties that maybe needs to be set? I have it set as a Dynamic XML Form. In form properties, there is a tab called data binding, should I have "Allow binding to data not defined by the default data connection" checked? Wasn't sure what "Add data nodes inside the filtered data hierarchy" would do either.

How do you save a document with a new name?

OK I decided to go with Pages as my document editor on my iPad 2. It seems to be powerful enough to do the kind of text editing that I need to do. I need some tables, a few graphics, headers, footers, etc. You know the basic stuff. I am not going to try to write a dissertation or thesis on my iPad, but I need to be able to write memos and some work documents.
I am having a hard time learning the Apple way of doing things I guess. Must be too many years on a PC using Microsoft Office.
But I need to know how to open an existing document, make some changes and then save it with a new name so I don't overwrite my original document? Just a basic "Save As" function.
Is this possible? Or has Apple devised a way that I am just not seeing yet?

Hi
Someone maybe can tell you another/the right way of doing this but I do it this way. In pages press and hold the document until it wiggles and then select it by touching it so the orange border appears around it, then press the folder button at the top, the one with the + sign on it and this will create an exact copy on the documents screen. Then just open and edit that one thus preserving the content of the original.
There may well be a better way, but hope this helps.

Matt.

Filling up a pdf form which I received as email. I opened it on my adobe reader 11 and filled up the highlighted fields. Yet when I click on the send via mail it says changes will not be included. How do I send the form with changes?

Filling up a pdf form which I received as email. I opened it on my adobe reader 11 and filled up the highlighted fields. Yet when I click on the send via mail it says changes will not be included. How do I send the form with changes?
The add annotations field shows as not allowed in the security options. So how do I send this form back with the changes??

I think you you need to click 'save' first, then it is saved to acrobat, where it will prompt to send.

Allow reader users to save pdf form with data

I want to create a form that an adobe reader user can open and save a copy as a pdf with the data in the form. I know that requires reader extensions - what i can't seem to figure out is if I already have this included and how to do it. I have LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2 - which is the download I end up at when searching LC with reader extensions.
Does anyone have instructions on how to do this or know whether that functionality is available in the version I'm running?

You can add the Reader Extesnion right to save the form with data locally in two different ways.
1. In Acrobat Pro open the form and under the Advanced/Extend Features in Adobe Reader will walk you through a wizard. Once the wixard is finished, save the file and use that one. This technique is limited to 500 users by licence.
2. LiveCycle Reader Extensions Server has a User Interface that allwos you to pick the rights you want. There are no luser imitations to this option.
If you do not have either, option 1 is a lot simpler. You can download a trial copy of Acrobat Pro and try it.

I would be glad for the opportunity to customize a Premiere Elements 12 answer to your Premiere Elements 12 issue.
But, I want to make sure that we are together on the details. This is my understanding of what you have written. Please review and let me
know if I am misinterpreting anything that you have written.
You have a video created in Windows Movie Maker.
How did you output the video from Windows Movie Maker...wmv or mp4, what was the frame size and frame rate of that export?
Next you import that video into Premiere Elements 12 (can we assume that this is on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit?)
From what you wrote, you have applied a pan and zoom effect to your video in Premiere Elements.
Now you go to export the Premiere Elements 12 Timeline content with your video with the pan and zoom applied.
But, the pan and zoom effect is not seen in playback of the export.
Is all of the above correct so far?
If so....we are going to need some more details from you...
a. What is the project preset that you or the project are setting to match the properties of the video coming from Movie maker? See Edit Menu/Project Settings/General and the readings for Editing Mode, Timebase, Frame Rate, and Pixel Aspect Ratio even if the fields look grayed out.
b. Are you applying the pan and zoom effect with the Pan and Zoom Tool, fx Effects Presets, or keyframing the Scale (for Zoom) and
Position (for Pan) in the Motion Panel expanded?
c. What are you selecting as your export in Publish+Share/. Please give details...are you using default settings or customizing the export
setting under the Advanced Button/Video Tab and Audio Tab of the preset selected?
I am suspecting some sort of mismatch of your project settings or some problems with working with the Pan and Zoom tool. I need
your answers to help me help you. If I have written anything that you do not understand, please let me know. I will re-write if necessary
so that we are in sync to resolve the issue.
Thanks.

There is no 'Save as' under the file menu. How do I save a file with another name?

Numbers help refers to the 'Save As' function in the File menu. My version (latest) does not have a 'Save As' function. How do I save a file with another name?

Badunit. You have an original file and an edited file. Now you duplicate the edited file and save it with a different name. Now do you have to go and delete the changed file from which the duplicate had been made? And.... is the original still unchaned... still original?
Ross,
For the situation you describe, Apple has provided Duplicate and Revert. Use File > Duplicate to reach this menu:

In Pages how do I save a file with another name

In Pages how do I save a file with another name?

I don't know if there is a less cumbersome way to do this (I'm still pretty new to Lion) but This is what I do - since "Save As" seems to be gone with Lion.
I create a duplicate document - then click the red button to close the document - and a dialog box pops up and asks if you want to save the changes - I change the name in there and then save the file under the new name.
You can also save the copy to the desktop - get info - and then change the name if the finder window.
I copied this from the Pages help area. These help instructions were created pre-Lion I'm sure.
Saving a Copy of a Document
If you want to make a copy of your document—to create a backup copy or multiple versions, for example—you can save the document using a different name or location. (You can also automate saving a backup version, as Automatically Saving a Backup Version of a Document describes.)
To save a copy of a document:
Choose File > Save As and specify a name and location.
The document with the new name remains open. To work with the previous version, choose File > Open Recent and choose the previous version from the submenu.

How can I save controller assignments with a project?

How can I save controller assignments with a project, so that I can use different controller assignments for the same synth in another project
Let's say I am controlling a Logic instrument with MIDI and CC data sent from MaxMSP. I have created a composition and would now like to make another one, with new assignments of controllers, in a new project. Is it possible to save the first piece's c.a. with it's project, so that I can switch between projects and have the controller assignments switch accordingly? Is that something that's become possible in Logic X with Smart Control or another workaround?
Thanks a lot for any hints!

With standard instruments you can cable transformers before the objects translating incoming cc's to "fader" events.
With the new plug-ins they've hacked into Logic (ultrabeat, sculpture) this isn't possible, so your stuck with the "controller assignments" window which to me seems to be aimed at dedicated control surfaces and autoloads. My experiences with the controller assignments window aren't good, as i've found it drops incoming messages quite often.
Knowing how to do this(controller assignments per song) would give me a reason to open the controller assignments window again..Pretty useless to me otherwise.

With what program are you working and with what version of the program and on what computer operating system?
I suspect that you are working with some version of Photoshop Elements. If that is correct, then be advised that some how
your thread got posted in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum (video editing) instead of the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum (photo editing).
If Photoshop Elements question, then please re-post your thread in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum or wait for a moderator
here to see your thread here and move it from here to there.

Thought....if are creating an image on a transparent background in Photoshop Elements Windows for a Premiere Elements Windows project, then you Save As png or psd.
Please clarify if I have misinterpreted your question.
Thank you.
