How to save fillable PDF on Mac then share or send

Question
I followed instructions to select print, select the Save as PDF but when I tried to send the completed fillable PDF; the blanks are empty. I can't even open the saved document that shows there is information saved. When I try to open, there is a totally White page--- nothing. What could I be doing incorrectly on the save and open?

I aware of that; I created the forms to be saved, completed and submitted
using Adobe Pro in the faculty lab. I then had the school put Adobe Pro on
my computer to tweak the forms when I needed. However on testing forms now
on my computer, I can not fill out and SAVE the information to submit when
completed. Perhaps my Adobe Pro is corrupted and needs to be
re-installed? If I go to another Mac computer and use the same created PDF
forms, complete them, save them, I am able to submit the completed form and
the information can be seen. I cannot now do this on my Mac now that I
have installed this Adobe Pro.

How to save Fillable PDF form created in XI - So Acrobat Reader can fill out and send back

Hi, Im extremely hopeful someone can help me with this question, Ive had extreme luck with this question site, you have all been amazing.
I have created a fillable form in Adobe Acrobat XI and I have saved my work and Im ready to send the form to my client.
I have been told that I need to save my file in a manner that the general public that does not have Acrobat XI, and mainly has acrobat reader, will be able to open, fill my form out, and send back to me completed.
How do I do this.
Ive run a couple tests with coworker and its not allowing the saving of the information that she filled out.
Does anyone know how I need to save and distribute this form so I get it back filled out from my clients? that probably have only reader?
thanks in advance for your help.
Amy

I think I figured this out???? My pdf tester has gone to bed, so hopefully I will know by morning if this is my solution......
Open the PDF in Acrobat XI (the form you have saved that is ready to be filled out to whoever you distribute the form to).
Choose Advanced > Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader (Acrobat 8/9) (if you have XI do not do this step, but do step 4 for XI)
or
File > Save As >Reader Extended PDF > Enable Additional Features (Acrobat X) (Its actually not in save as, but in save as other)
Save the PDF using a different file name, you will be using this new file to be the file you will distribute.
When you now open the PDF in Adobe Reader you will be able to fill the form and save the data and then send it back to the author that is requesting the form to be filled out.

Thanks so much!

Thanks for the respons... if that is the case how come when I open fillable pdf's in AA from other people there is no highlight. But when I open the one I just created, there is highlight. That's all on the same computer with the same preferences?

How to open a pdf file and then attach it with images

I am new to Indesign Server.
I'm currently working on a pdf.
I have a white blank pdf template.
that I want to attach/glue it with images.
How to open a pdf file and then attach it with images.
Please, help me.
Thanks.

First step would be to make yourself familiar with InDesign desktop version.
Whatever you intend to achieve, do it there manually. (see regular app docs or forums)
Then try to automate your steps with scripting (see scripting docs or forum)
If you can do it with a script in the desktop version, that script will likely also run in ID Server. (see server forum).
If you can specify missing features not achievable thru scripting or manual use, reconsider to write a plugin (this forum).
A seasoned C++ programmer will need a few months to learn the basics, wade thru tons of documentation etc. Alternatively consider to hire a consultant to do the development work for you.

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.

Firefox does not create a pdf properly using "print Save as pdf" in Mac OSX. Why?

When I "Print > Save As Pdf" in Mac OSX, Firefox will always clip the right margin of the page, leaving out alot of information from the document. Safari creates the same page effortlessly, but I generally prefer Firefox.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== ? After updating to Firefox 3.5.8 - maybe?

I am able to command-print-save as PDF and get the whole page but Firefox crashes every time.

How to save SOME time machine Mac backups from the TM disk to other disk WITHOUT formatting the destination disk?

Hi,
How to save SOME time machine Mac backups from the TM disk to other disk WITHOUT formatting the destination disk?
I have a Time Machine disk (A) including the backups of several different Macs (B, C, D & E) generated with an old Mac OS X 10.5.8 (iMac PowerPC) over the years.
I have transferred the old Mac contents to a new Mac with OS X 10.8.3 using Migration Assitant. All OK.
Now, I want to erase such TM disk A to use if for other purposes, but first, I would like to RECOVER the backups of some Macs inside it (D and E). Is that possible WITHOUT formatting the destination disk and selecting only some Macs from the TM disk and not the fulll TM disk? How?
Thanks.

Thanks for the reply. I do not think that is messy, anway. I simply used the same external disk as Time Machine disk for different Macs. And that worked OK all the time for years.
The ExternalTimeMachineDisk contains the folder Backups.backupdb
which contains the following folders (each one corresponding to the Time Machine backup made from each Mac):
Mac1
Mac2
MacBook1
MacBook2
In relation to my message above, is it possible to select specific files, folders or full Mac backups from such Time Machine disk and save them to other disk? How?
Thanks.

How to receive fillable PDF forms from clients & be able to save them?

Hi everyone,
So I have been having trouble with this for a while now.
Basically for work, my assignment was to create a PDF that could have fillable forms and a button at the bottom of the page sending to my coworkers' emails.
How it would work: Once a person fills out the form and presses the send button at the bottom of the PDF, it would send to my coworkers' emails and they could save the documents with the fillable data.
Everything works except for the saving process. Once my coworkers receive the email, they get different error messages that look like the following (and they CANNOT SAVE the PDFs... so it makes the whole idea worthless):
Here is how the messages read:
1) First image on the left: the box reads "Save a Blank Copy of this Form"
underneath it it says "Data typed into this form will not be saved. Adobe Reader can only save a blank copy of this form.
2) 2nd image: the box reads "Sending Data Files by Email"
underneath it says "Please note: This form contains an email submit button. Clicking this button will email a data file containing data you type into this form. However, the form itself will not be sent. Remember you cannot save a completed copy of this form with Adobe Reader 9 or later.
3) 3rd image: reads "the file you are attempting to open contains comments or form data that are supposed to be placed on. This document cannot be found. It may have been moved, or deleted. Would you like to browse to attempt to locate this document?
So, I was wondering if there is any way around this. Is there away to have the PDF sent back to my coworkers so they can then save the FILLABLE PDF and organize it in a folder.
If there isn't... then is there a way to have it send back to my coworkers and have them print out the fillable PDF and organize the PDFS coming in that way?

Yes, you just need to Reader-enable the document, which will allow Reader to save the complete PDF form. When you set up the Submit button, choose the option that sends the complete PDF, as opposed ot just the form data (FDF, XFDF).
To Reader-enable a document in Acrobat 10, select: File > Save As > Reader Extended PDF > Enable Additional Features
Do this as the final step when preparing the document to be sent out.

How to modify fillable pdf forms

I'm using Mac OS 10.7.2. I've been applying for a job through the Veterans Administration website, usajobs.
I have not been able to save the fillable PDF documents as the website says I should.
Every time I try to save, I lose the information I've typed in.
The website says it should work with Safari 5.0, but it does not.
It also says it should work with Acrobat Reader 9, but it does not. The tech at Acrobat said I needed Acrobat Pro X, which costs $489 and with a Mac does not have a trial period.
I also tried something called PDF Pen, but that messed up the information in the forms.
Any suggestions?
Also, if I get far enough that I can save the data, it also requires me to sign the forms. Any idea of how I can do that?
Thanks

Fill out the form, and instead of saving, File->Export... and save as a PDF with a different name. If this works, you will need to do this with each edit.

How to save to PDF-X

The print shop I submit documents to for professional printing prefers the document in CYMK instead of RGB. Apparently there is no way built into Pages '09 to accomplish this task. Someone suggested going to "Print" and then to "PDF" and then in the drop-down menu go to "Save as PDF-X". I can save a 1 page document in this way but when I attempt a document more than 1 page I get the message "Alert...Couldn't create PDF/X-3 document".
So the question remains: How to save a multipage document in PDF-X?

It could be the size that is the problem. Images can be very "heavy" and Pages does keep all information from the images even if you just want to show a little in the newsletter. I would suggest that you crop the images in a photo editing application. There are free or shareware apps you can use. The resolution doesn't have to be more than 300 dpi for printing, maybe a little less. How large are the images by the way, in Mb?

Save fillable PDFs in Reader

I've created a fillable PDF form in Acrobat 7.0 Professional.
I want to fill in the form by using Adobe Reader and then save it as a new (will obviously be a non-editable) document.
Filling in works fine, but it doesn't let me save the filled-in form with Adobe Reader.
Can you help, please? Thank you so much.

In order for a modified document to be saved with Reader, it has to be Reader-enabled. Unfortunately, Acrobat 7 does not allow you to Reader-enable a form. This capability was introduced with Acrobat 8 Pro and is available with versions 9 and 10 as well, both Standard and Pro.
