Lost ability to sign and edit a document in Adobe reader

I have just downloaded the newest upgrade for Adobe reader and I am not able to sign or edit documents in Adobe Reader. I have tried to edit the toolbar as instructed in the help text but there is not sign or edit text obtion in the file tab on the toolbar. How am I able to get this function back on my toolbar?

Can you check (using regedit) if you have the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\11.0\FeatureLockDown\cServices
and if it contains a value bEnableSignPane ?  If so, what is it set to?
If it's set to 0, then the Sign tool will be suppressed.  See http://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/PrefRef/Windows/FeatureLockdown.html#idk eyname_1_6398

    Explorer is a Microsoft, not an Adobe product. You can download it from
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/download-ie
    For installing Reader, you may try downloading its full installer from
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

  • Signing and saving a document in Acrobat 8.0

    We would like to bypass the sign and save As dialog which appears when
    1. Sign a document
    2. click on Sign
    Is there any way we could acheive this

    We have written a plugin. We do not wish to interfere with the Signing process. All we want is that the original document should be saved with the signature instead of displaying the Save As dialog.
    In Acrobat 7.0, there were 2 buttons on the Sig Dialog viz. "Sign And Save" and "Sign And Save As". Sign And Save would save the signature in the same document. However in Acrobat 8, there is only one button "Sign" and this button displays the Save As dialog. The behavior is similar to Sign And Save As in Acrobat 7.

  • Cannot sign documents with Adobe Reader 10.1.3 - 10.1.10, Can sign document with 10.1.2 and 11.0.07

    Cannot sign documents with Adobe Reader 10.1.3 - 10.1.10, Can sign document with 10.1.2 and 11.0.07
    In my environment, we have 10.1.2 that's currently packaged. Our CIO was able to sign documents via signature with no problem. Later he got updated to 10.1.9, no longer can sign.
    During testing I was able to confirm that 10.1.2 signed without problems, but anything that, it goes kaput, the Sign and options are not listed.
    Latest Adobe Reader can sign... any ideas?

    I'm having a similar problem.  What I'm trying to do is print a Microsoft Word 2010 document with paper size A4 to Adobe pdf document paper size A4.  I select "A4" for paper size in word and then print using Adobe print standard settings.  What I get is an Adobe document in 8.5 x 11.  This is an issue because these are patent documents for electronic filing in WIPO and they must be in A4 size.
    If I select other sizes in Word, such as A3, Tabloid, and Legal, the Adobe file is in the same paper size.
    If I print a Powerpoint document in A4 to Adobe, the Adobe file page size is A4.
    If I print an Adobe file in 8.5 x11 to Adobe A4, the second Adobe file is in A4.
    Any help? 

  • How can i open and edit microsoft documents in macbook pro

    how can i open and edit microsoft documents in macbook pro with retina display? I am a new user to mac book

    You could install Office for Mac. You could install a free Office-like program such as LibreOffice. You could open the documents with a program like Pages. Or you could install Windows and Office on your Macbook Pro.

  • Problems displaying and editing long documents on small pages sizes

    Problems displaying and editing long documents on small page sizes
    I read this problem have called with the helpdesk they didn't know the solution but how can I find the solution:
    In Pages 09, I can't scroll down andand click on text to edit it!! All the mouse will do is draw gray transparentboxes and not place the cursor in the text. Again, like the display problem, itdoesn't happen at the beginning of the doc, but starts showing up around 50 to60 pages in ... I can't select text at the bottom of pages ... at 50 pages, thecursor can be clicked into anyplace on a page. Further and further down, the unselectablearea on any particular page creeps up from the bottom line by line: at 175pages in the unselectable area is 12 lines high; at 360 pages in theunselectable area is 25 lines high. and finally at around 440 pages down, Icannot place the cursor anywhere on any page all the way to the end of thedocument.
    I have Page versie 4.1

    What you get was described here several times.
    As we are end users like you, we can't change the app behavior.
    Under 10.6.8 you have the buttons allowing you to scroll one line up or one line down.
    Under Lion they are no longer available.

    My MacBook Pro will not open documents via Adobe Reader. Says I need to aspen Reader in Browzer and accept terms and contitions first. Went through this 3 times and got through to "Finish", closed browser and then retried. No luck. What's going on?? Have no problem with same documents on iPhone and iPad

    After you finished installing did you launch Adobe Reader from your /Applications folder and accept EULA(End User License Agreement)?
    What is your Adobe Reader version?
    What browser are you using and browser version?
    Thank You.

    I just signed up for a subscription to adobe reader paying EUR 24.40.
    The program does not work, and I can not even go to my personal page .... help ...?

    Adobe Reader is free; it does not require a subscription.
    Did you subscribe to an online service like ExportPDF, PDF Pack, ...?
    What exactly does "not work" mean?

  • When opening a pdf document in Adobe Reader the font of the original document is changed....It becomes a mix of the original font and a new different font. How can i fix this

    When opening a pdf document in Adobe Reader the font of the original document is changed....It becomes a mix of the original font and a new different font. How can i fix this

    This issue occurs with most of the PDFs that I open up. I am using the latest version of adobe reader on my windows based machine and it is a general PDF. I saw a similar post online stating that if you look at the fonts used in the document and it doesn't say (Embedded) next to it, then Adobe Reader will try to pull the font(s) from your computer and if it doesn't find that font then it will replace it which makes it look funny.

    I can't open any pdf documents with Adobe Reader XI...get an error that "Adobe has stopped working" then it closes.  Is this an Adobe issue, Microsoft issue, or security issue? 

    Thank you!  That seemed to do the trick.  Don't think I'd ever have figured that one out!!
