[locked] Allow users to save the PDF file

I've noticed that by using the form Distribution through either email, Acrobat.com, or a shared folder on the network the user can save the PDF file, correct? Do I understand this correctly? One other thing, what if I don't want to email out but just want the PDF form to be available on my website, will the user still be able to save a copy of the filled form for themselves to print or do whatever they want?

Okay, is this the paragraph?
15.12.3 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
therein to the contrary, obtaining additional licenses to use Acrobat Pro or
Acrobat Pro Extended 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 Pro or Acrobat Pro Extended you may have
obtained).
I'm not trying to break any laws but just curious as how Adobe would track that information. In any case, I'm not trying to capture/extract any information from the PDF form. Mainly what I'm trying to do or like to do is just allow the user to save the form. I don't want to capture or extract any information from the PDF form. My form is about three to four pages long and all I'm trying to do is allow the user to save the form that they partially filled and allow them to save the form so they can come back whenever they want to and finish filling up the form and that's it. I'm not looking for any data coming back to me. The user is required to print the form so their is no electronic information coming back. Is this still violate Adobe's limitation above?

  • Preflight keeps saying  "Unable to save the PDF File after post processing"

    I'm at a loss how to overcome this. Spent almost a whole day, together with another person, trying to fix it with no success!
    I use Adobe pro CC on a PC
    I usually receive pdf files from this one client who edits and formats a book in Mac Pages. Up until a few days ago I had no problems converting the client's pdfs into pdf/x3, but the last three versions of the latest file have stumped me.
    Just to test, I first just tried to convert the file (33MB), unchanged, to pdf/x3 using the save as other option - message reads  "the document has been saved, however, it could not be converted according to the selected standard profile: convert to PDF/X. Please use preflight with the profile "Convert to PDF/X" in order to identify those properties of the document which prevent it from being compliant to this profile"
    if I then choose under Profiles - convert to PDF/X3 - it says no problems found, and appears to have saved the file. If I try to save again as a pdf/x3, just to make sure, it then tells me it's not pdf/x3 compliant
    OK - so then I go back to preflight - and choose the standards function - then pdf/x3, then continue with the default colour profile. About halfway through the conversion, at the point of saving the file,  I get the message "unable to save the pdf file after post processing"
    So far I've had no luck figuring out what this is.
    I then choose the option of "verify compliance of ppdf/x3" - message reads "pdf/x3 version key (GTS_PDFXVersion) missing", and "Trapped key not true or false"
    Help!! How can I be sure the file converted / or not?

    Yes I was/am aware of Preflight's inability to play nicely over cloud technologies in certain cases, especially wrt Standards technologies, this will be partially addressed in an upcoming version of Preflight without saying too much.  But the same thing could theoretically have happened if the file was also located on another local network client or server.  Leaving aside the argument that this may violate the Acrobat User Agreement - since purchasing the software, the user agrees to employ its functionality on a single host system and precludes host-client-based scenarios - this simply is not a supported use, meaning the user may not have expectations that it will work at all, if the applications requirements are not observed.  There do exist server-solutions for Preflight files within networks, but Acrobat and by extension Acrobat Preflight is not one of those solutions, and (still) belongs in the single host-based desktop environment.
    However most (99.9%) functions within Acrobat <-> acrobat.com file exchange are supported, file syncing across multiple devices will soon be supported, but Standards compliance is still admittedly a problem at this point.  Some testing has been done using 3rd party cloud technologies starting with enterprise-based solutions, such as Office 365, and this will continue to ramp up to include other 3rd party products.
    As for the second point, Preflight will usually change the PDF version to be complaint, are you saying that it was unable to do so in this case?  It seems that this error should have popped up during the normal Preflight conversion attempt.  Personally I think solving a workflow problem using the print path is a little bit of a heavy-handed approach, but if helped and the results are acceptable, then that is good.  Since that path is non-existent on a Mac, as one needs to Save as Adobe PDF from the Print dialog's PDF drop-down menu, I am assuming your workflow involved file creation on a Mac, then further processing on Windows using the PDF printer.  I am wondering if a simple resave/Save As... to PDF with overwrite on a Mac, or Preflighting the file using a PDF version compatibility profile before the PDF/X conversion would have helped.  Since there are such a multitude of methods that a PDF can be created, there are also many ways within Acrobat that a user can shape the file to be compatible with the expected workflow, ie, 'many ways to skin a cat', without being morbid.

  • Recording video/audio files using Flash Meida Server through rmtp, and allow users to access the recorded files through http.

    As titled, what is the way to record video/audio files using Flash Meida Server through rmtp, and allow users to access the recorded files through http?
    What I am trying to do, is to record a user's microphone's input and save it to the server. Afterwards, I would like other users to be able to access the recorded files and mainuplating the audio data, by computeSpectrum(), to do some visualization of the audio. As I know computeSpectrum() cannot work on streaming files, so I think I need to access the recorded files using http instead of rmtp. Is that true?
    How can I redirect the http request to the files I was recorded into my applications/appName folder? Or I need to somehow moved the recorded files to the /webroot folder?
    Thanks!

    I probably have asked a stupid question.
    My recorded streams are still saved in the applications/appName/streams folder.
    And I redirect the www.mydomain.com/streams to point to the applications/appName/streams folder.
    And the rmtp recorded streams are abled to connect through http now.

    I dont think you can save the data into sap tables in PDF format.
    With the above code you can save data into an internal table.

  • Failed to save the PDF file into the open location as default

    Hi all,
    Please help me!
    In Acrobat XI professional, while save the PDF file using the SAVEAS option it shows the previous file saved location path.
    But i need the current opened location path while save the PDF file.
    Please help me to solve the issue.
    Regards,
    JayaKrishnan

    What an awesome idea, Bernd...
    I've just encountered the same situation and it's irritating the hell outta me. Adobe's always gotta screw something up to irritate us. As if having the rent their software isn't irritation enough.
    The problem is when you open a file and then Save As it has always, and in every program known to man (at least that I've used), offered to Save As in the same folder where the file was opened from. Now it wants to save it in the last "saved to" directory.
    While this could be convenient on occasion it's a PitA most of the time.
    Any actual solution to this misbehaving Save dialog?

  • Save the pdf file in after report trigger

    Hi friends,
    How can I save the report PDF result file in table from after report triger?
    I am using Oracle report 10g. So is it possible to do that.
    thanks

    You can install the pluggable database destination from OTN.
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/reports/pluginxchange/index.html
    After deploying it on the reports server you can print the PDF to a BLOB column of a table in the database.
    An other "older" option is described over here:

  • Save as PDF file as excel file or text file in vba excel

    I am trying to do this with some code but not able to , pls help me thatnks.

    Abhijeet

    Hi,
    In the documentation for the saveAs function it has the following params
    cPath The device-independent path in which to save the file.
    cConvID (optional, Acrobat 6.0) A conversion ID string that specifies the conversion
    file type.
    cFS (optional, Acrobat 7.0) A string that specifies the source file system name.
    bCopy (optional, Acrobat 7.0) A Boolean value which, if true, saves the PDF file
    as a copy. The default is false.
    bPromptToOverwrite (optional, Acrobat 7.0) A Boolean value which, if true, prompts the user if
    the destination file already exists. The default is false.
    In order to get a text file saved you need to specify the correct cConvID.
    See the documentation for the valid convID's - http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/10/Acrobat10_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.519.html
    Please note the Acrobat SDK contains all the information and does not require much installing ( as it is a zip file(on windows) and a disc image (on Mac) it just needs extracted)

  • How to store the pdf file

    hi all,

    My first question is "where is the PDF file located"? If the answer is "on a file system accessible to the Oracle database" Then you can use directory objects and the DBMS_LOB package. It would look something like this:
    as SYS user do:
    -- assume the PDF files are in /data/documents <font face="tahoma,verdana,sans-serif" size="1" color="#000">files</font>ystem directory
    create or replace directory pdfdir as '/data/documents';

  • How can I save a pdf file on my ipad so I can view it later

    I want to be able to view a pdf file on my ipad when I do not have access to internet but I can't seem to save it on my ipad

    You need an app into which it can be saved. Download iBooks or Adobe Reader which are both free in the App Store, then you can save the PDF files into one of those apps. I prefer Adobe Reader because you can annotate, highlight, rename create folders, add your signature and do some other things that you cannot do with iBooks.
    After you download one of those apps, tap the PDF file in order to open it, than tap on the screen somewhere in order to make the sayer icon appear in the upper right corner. Tap the share icon and then select Open In iBooks or Adobe Reader from the resulting pop up window. That will save the file to the app.

  • Fill a PDF form and then save the pdf

    Hi,
    We are implementing an web application that will collection data on a form and the would like to populate a fillable PDF form. I saw the sample code using Acrobat IAC to open a form and then populate the form fields. However, with that example, I am not able to save the pdf file. Can someone direct me how to make that happened?
    Thanks,
    Lei

    In that case, I'm afraid that the Acrobat SDK is a non-starter,
    because Acrobat isn't for server use. You might like to check out

  • Prompted to Open or Save a pdf File

    Does any one know how this Works:
    What is the security difference between having Acrobat opening a PDF from a webpage inside the browser
    and opening in the Acrobat program.
    I ask because when i have Acrobat opening PDF's inside the browser it
    does not prompt to open/save the PDF file. But when you disable the open
    inside browser, you get the prompt from IE to open/save the PDF first.
    I can circumvent it by placing the site into the Intranet security zone in IE, but this is not a long term solution because Office requires that the site is in the Trusted Internet Zone, if you dont have the site in trusted internet zone, office will
    tell you that the file can harm you computer etc.

    Hi,
    So what do you want to achieve with the PDF files, Let them display inside the browser or open the download prompt?
    PDF open inside browser is managed by add-ons in IE. And if the PDF needs to open in the Acrobat, the file need to be downloaded first.
    Here are two articles talking about this:
    Display PDF in browser
    How do I open a PDF in Acrobat instead of the browser?

  • Prompted to Open or Save a pdf File. Very Annoying!!

    I have Windows 7, IE9, and Adobe Reader X. My question is this. When I click on a pdf file to open it, I receive a bar across the bottom of my window asking me if I want to open or save the pdf file. How can I just get the pdf to open and stop the prompt from appearing?

    If you use the 32-bit version of IE9 there should be no prompt; it sould open inside the browser.
