How to save a PDF in Acrobat XI after making changes without changing the document name

Whenever I work in Adobe Acrobat XI, I am forced to 'save as' when trying to save the changes I have just made. I am unable to save the document under the same name I have been working on it under (the way you can do in every other program). This happens every time I create form fields, merge or extract pages, add text, etc. This is extremely annoying because then I have to go into my documents, delete the old version, and then rename the document I was working on. HELP! I work in Acrobat every day creating and editing documents and there HAS to be a better way!

CTRL+F brings up the search bar within the document. When I go to File --> Save (or CTRL+S) I receive an error message that states "The document could not be saved. The file may be read-only, or another user may have it open. Pelase save the document with a different name or in a different folder". This message pops up for EVERY document I have modified that I try to save.

Adobe Action: Save As JPEG, but stop to let me change the file name?

I'm needing to save about 100 different JPEG files based on one template with differing text in each JPEG.
I've got my layers set up with a template behind, and all 100 text layers on top of each other. So I turn the text layers on one at a time and save as JPEG's with different names.
I'm finding this to be an incredibly arduous process as I have to select "Save As", then scroll through the file types to select JPEG, then save as the desired name.
Is there a way to speed this up, create an action that opens the "Save As" dialogue box with JPEG ALREADY selected so all I have to do is paste the new file name in? Or any other suggestions?
Skipping that one step of having to scroll through in the "Save As" dialogue box to select JPEG would save me TONS of time. But I can't figure out how to do this... I can only figure out a way to create a "Save As" action that has the same name.
Thanks so much!

Thank you for the response, and I will attach screenshots.
I'm not sure how this will help with the description as you haven't specified which part of my original post you don't understand, but see the attached photos and let me know if you have further questions about the process:
My document is laid out with one template, then dozens and dozens of text layers on top for each flide for my client (Consulting 101_1 etc.)
So I have all of the text layers turned off EXCEPT for the single one that I want to save for the slide I want to create (in this example Consulting 101_1)
So I save this slide with the current text layer viewable (Consulting 101_1), select "Save As", then have to navigate to "JPEG" in the 'Format' section.
Then once I've saved that specific slide, I turn off the previous text layer (in this case Consulting 101_1) and turn on the NEXT text layer (in this case Consulting 101_2) and repeat the same thing.
I realize that there is no fast way to do this, but cutting out the need to select 'Format' and scroll down to 'JPEG' every single time would save a massive amount of trouble.
If I could just hit an action key command and have the "Save As" dialogue box pop with with 'JPEG' ALREADY selected as the format, then I could just name the file and move on to the next, cutting out a massive amount of grunt work.

How do I change the document name on my iPad after editing it?

I have forms to fill multiple time for different projects! On the iPad, I can not tell if they are different because I can't see the changes when saved to iBook or emailed. Do I have to wait until I'm at me PC, if yes the iPad and your app are useless!

You can change the document name before editing it, using the Duplicate feature. You can do this in the File Manager by going into ‘Edit’ mode, selecting the file, and choosing Duplicate option.
Adobe Reader currently does not support saving a copy of a file after changes are made to it (and not yet saved in the original). This is a feature we would consider for a future update.
Thanks for your feedback.

Why Acrobat x professional is changing the text formatting specifically the font family and the font size of the text in my pdf on exporting it to Microsoft word file format ?How should i stop Acrobat x professional from doing that so that i get an exactly same word file on exporting it from its pdf counterpart?

I was testing the preciseness & efficiency of Adobe acrobat x professional's doc conversion capabilities. As i have to take a document editing project in future which is going to need lot of pdf to word and vice versa conversions . What I did was I created a test word document converted into a pdf using a pdf maker in my word 2007 , Acrobat did convert the document from word to pdf keeping everything in the source file intact , However when i tried the other way round and attempted to convert the same pdf to word 2007 file format I lost my formatting ?So the font that I used to create the pdf are the ones taken from word 2007 which i believe is using the fonts that are installed in my computer. Any suggestions on how to preserve the formatting of the document after converting it from pdf to word file format?
Regards
Mike

How to save filled PDF in adobe reader 9.0

Can you please tell me how to save filled PDF in adobe reader 9.0 with all the filled details

You cannot buy 8 or 9.
In X (10 - which you can't buy either), you can do File > Save as > Reader Extended PDF > Enable additional features.
Important notes:
1. KEEP THE ORIGINAL. Once rights are added many kinds of editing are permanently locked out.
2. THERE ARE STRICT LIMITS on the number of people who can save a form. Details in the EULA: check it carefully (or have a lawyer check it).
Also note that Reader XI can save forms with no special preparation.

You cannot in Adobe Reader. You can try in Acrobat, but first you must try to run OCR (Text Recognition). I have never tried OCR on a script font.

How to change the file name of pdf file in html page?

Hi,
Actually my requirement is to upload 50 PDF files containing javascript in each file into flex page with the help of one html page.
i did the the javascript part by using batch processing.
now i want to call those pdf files one after another without changing the file name in html page
the code written in html page is
<html>
    <body>
        <object id="PDFObj"
                data="http:\\localhost\pdf\20090807 - Batch 630.pdf"
                type="application/pdf"
                width="100%"
                height="100%">
        </object>
        </body>
</html>
So every time i have to change that file name to acess another file.
Is there is any other way to sort this problem????
Plz anyone help me to sort out this problem with some code or some example.

I once had a similar task for creating a webpage that I only use on my computer--a webpage that accesses PDF's and SWF's font previews from a list of fonts as "a href's". What you must do is utilize the power of the command line, whether on a Mac on a PC or on Linux, Linux being the most powerful (although Mac IS Unix). You must utilize variables, variable replacement, and then a command to print out the results of a "for" or "while" loop to a text file which will be your HTML file with each individual link automatically built into the HTML code. You will have a list of 50 links. If you are simply looking for a GOOGLE type functionality where you click on "Next" and "Previous" you will have to dig deeper into variable replacement--this I don't know how to do yet but there are books for command-line shell interpreters. One shell interpreter is called "bash" (born-again shell) and there is a book on the market which gives a detailed example of how to replace variables in a shell script. Again, I don't know how it works. I will try to learn this at a later time when I am more seasoned with the basics of shell scripting.
