Looking for the correct Adobe product

Not sure if I’m in the right forum, but here’s what I’m needing. I want to be able to create some user forms that will contain basic client information entered into text boxes, and will also contain check boxes and drop down boxes for selection of types of services needed. I would like there to be and a command button able to clear the content (reset) those text boxes, and have a second ‘clear all’ button that would completely reset or clear the form for the next entry, so as to minimize the risk of errors due to info left over from the previous entry. I would also like to set up a tab index for those text boxes (and other controls) so they can be scrolled through with the tab key for ease of data entry. Examples include client name, phone, date of birth, company, SSN. It would be great if the SSN could be in three fields so after the first 3 digits are entered, then the curser automaticly moves to the next 2 digit field, then to the last 4 digit field. Even better would be an error check, so that the form could not be completed of saved until the correct number of digits are entered.
Some of the forms would be printed only, others emailed in .pdf format so that the content could not be changed by the recipient. This can be done with MS Word utilizing activex controls and then saving as a .pdf, or using VB forms for the printable versions that are not to be emailed, but the thing is the if users are still having to save as .pdf files anyway it would make sense to use an Adobe tool to create them (I think). I’m thinking maybe Adobe Acrobat is the tool that could do this, but since have no experience with any other Adobe products besides Photoshop I just don’t know. I’m hoping someone can help educate me on this and hopefully help me make the correct selection. Thanks.

thanks! my next step was to try and download the 30 day trial and give it a spin, but unable to download. not sure what's up with that. I have DSL

  • Looking for the right adobe solution

    I'm looking for a solution I'm sure resides in the Adobe suite of products but am not sure of the best program(s) to use. I want to create a cross platform GUI menu for content CDs. The content is not active multimedia content, but mostly PDFs of print publications. Most users will be on Windows, but the result should, in good conscience, be cross platform. Since many of the users will be on computers that prohibit autorun (i.e., gov't), I want to also configure it to not leave the user in the lurch because they can't autorun. I hate it when that happens--staring at an explorer/finder window full of unintelligible files, not knowing where to start.
    An interactive PDF, built in InDesign, with links established to source PDFs in a designated folder? Any prospective user is going to have Acrobat, if only Reader. I'm a print designer and when I step off into the multimedia, interactive thing, I lose my bearings. There are so many great tools in Adobe, I want to go down the right trail and not off a cliff.
    Thanks.

    Thanks. I will look into that. In fact, my portfolio is an interactive PDF. Wth the increased interactive components in CS5, I thought there MUST be an Adobe solution. I supposed one might be able to create links from a menu design to the many PDF-publications in a folder like a TOC link would do. The folks, very nice I might add, who work in IT where I work are on the Windows/Sharepoint kool-aid diet. I do not think they see Adobe as a solution for ANYTHING. All I want to do is help produce a functional, professional product. I not sure it's necessary to the Encore-level product, especially if the content is not active DVD content.
    Thanks very much. I really appreciate your response.

    Hi
    I have discovered that my question above is a non-question. A user triggered by looking at the below article about Illustrator 2014 cc 17.0.2
    http://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/release-note/illustrator-17-0-2-release-notes.html 
    He had recently upgraded from wht we now know is 18.0 to 18.1 which is the latest version. He read the above artic
    le and supposed that it was a bug fix release for his version - because the v17 ov18 number is not often displayed. It is usually just 2014 CC.
    I have asked him to post a bug report about Adobe Illustrator CC 2014.1

    i'm looking for the adobe suite 5.5 and it says it will only work on leopard or snow leopard... but i'm running on lion... anyone know what to do here?

    Hi.
    I'm guessing that you'r not buying a new edition of the Adobe Suite 5.5.
    Apparently Adobe haven't been awake to make sure the 5.5 is 100% compatiable with Lion. However, I do believe it's only a few minor troubles you will experince and Adobe constantly update their software to adjust to Lion.
    You should go to Adobe.com and see the list of known issues.
    Best regards.

    If you're looking to merge PDF files, then the most economical way to do that is with a PDF Pack subscription. For more information, see Reliably Create PDFs, Convert PDFs, & Merge PDFs Online | Adobe PDF Pack.
    Not only will be you able to merge PDFs, but you can create them or convert your PDFs to various formats, including Word and Excel.

    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom

  • How can I use pdf pack to convert cubase documents  (music scores)  into pdfs? I am looking for the former possibility to install acrobat like a printer but i don't have this option with "pdf pack". Can you help?

    How can I use pdf pack to convert cubase documents  (music scores)  into pdfs? I am looking for the former possibility to install acrobat like a printer but i don't have this option with "pdf pack". Can you help?

    Hi mariab,
    What format are those music scores (I'm not familiar with cubase documents). But, it may be that Adobe PDF Pack doesn't support that format. In that case, Acrobat is the way to go. You can then print your files to PDF as you'd like. You're welcome to try Acrobat for free for 30 days to see whether it's going to work for you. If you decide it is, and you'd like to use it going forward, you could convert your PDF Pack subscription into an Acrobat subscription.

    Did you reinstall CS3 after CC?
    For that matter, doing an in-place upgrade on the OS is always a gamble with Adobe programs. Reinstalling all the versions you need, in order, would probably solve your problem.
    And you shouldn't need to save as IDML after opening the .inx in CC.

  • For Mac OSX version 10.9.4 looking for the preference tab

    I want to print just a portion of a page but can't find a preference tab. I highlight a section of a page so I can print just that section but I am unable to find a preference tab, I have a HP 6600 all in one and have a new Mac version 10.9.4 Mac OSX
    What am I missing?

    Hi pagosselin,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I see that you are looking for the preference tab in Mac OS X 10.9.4 with your HP 6600 so you can print just a section. and I am happy to help you!
    Please try the following:
    Reset the printing system. OS X Mavericks: Reset the printing system.
    Verify and repair disk permissions. Disk Utility 12.x: Repair disk permissions.
    Make sure you have the full feature software and drivers installed. HP Officejet 6600 e-All-in-One Printer series Full Feature Software and Driver - OS X 10.9 Mavericks.
    After that you will want to make sure the correct driver is selected. Make sure it says HP Officejet 6600 instead of the HP Photosmart that is shown in these images, and not Airprint.
    Let's start with that, and we will go from there!

  • What is the best adobe product to build an HD website moving background?

    I want to design a High Definition moving background for my website.  What would be the best adobe product to use?  I tried After Effects but the quality lowers when i integrate it.

    ... as with anything, you have to ask what the purpose of the 'web application' is: are you developing a portal system, a data collection form with or without reporting capabilities, logins, accounts, etc. - or an internal web application meant to handle simple business tasks with small amounts of data?
    The Oracle product offerings can run from simple (APEX) to more complex cases (ADF, WebCenter Framework, etc.) - it all depends on what you're trying to accomplish.
    A good place to start would be just to download the JDeveloper IDE - JDeveloper supports a really wide array of Oracle technologies so you can get a feel for what might be the best 'tool' for your use case.... and JDeveloper even supports a number of standard web app approaches (e.g. Apache Struts) if you're familiar with those kind of tools.

Maybe you are looking for
