Open/fill in form on Mac that was created in Windows?  What Mac software needed?

Created a form in Windows using Acrobat Pro 9/LiveCycle Designer. Need to send this form to Mac user to fill out.  He can't add info to form or see check boxes.  What software does he need on Mac?  Once he completes form will email data back to me to import to form, then I need to email completed form to him to open on his iPad, read & sign.  What software does he need on iPad to open/see/sign form?  He has the program that allows him to "overlay" and save signature.

I'm not aware of any software that allows XFA forms created with LiveCycle Designer to work with iOS. If you want PDF forms that will work on iOS you shold create them in Acrobat. These are known a Acroforms. Adobe Reader for iOS can then be used to work with the forms, but Readdle's PDF Expert has the most complete support for forms and JavaScript.

    This work around has always worked, it may make some changes to transitions but better that than be unable to  open. 
    Export  from version 6 as a PowerPoint, choose PowerPoint 2003 in the in advanced options.
    Once you have the PowerPoint file open in Keynote.

  • I can't open a file in OS 922 that was created in OS X.

    The web-pages I downloaded while in OS X (and stored in the HD) appear blank, (white, no logo) when I am booted in OS 922. When I try to open them, I receive a message "Sorry, could not open because the application that created it could not be found".
    So OS 922 cannot find an application (in this case do they mean Safari or OSX ?) that created the file. Sounds logical since OS X didn't exist when OS 922 was created. And Safari neither I think (if that plays any role)
    Question: does the Internet connection (Internet Explorer vs. Safari play any role ?)
    I have no problem whatsoever with files downloaded with Internet Explorer (5.1.6 or previous versions I had). Or from OS 9.0.4 to 9.2.2.
    Nor do I with photos (even with Safari and OS X) .
    Only web-pages and documents (including TextEdit) done with OS X. And not all files but half of them.

    Hi, I need -
    OS 9's Finder uses File Type and Creator codes embedded in files to determine how the file should be handled - what program to use to open it, and how that program should process the file.
    OSX uses filename extensions rather than File Type and Creator codes.
    As a result, it is not uncommon for a file created in an OSX environment to be displayed as a generic unknown-type document when the machine is booted to OS 9; and for Finder to not know how to handle it when it is double-clicked.
    If you know that a certain program in OS 9 should be able to open a file, try dropping that file onto the icon for that program (or on an alias to that program) - some programs are capable of trying to open a file done that way; others won't even try.
    In most cases, a file created by an OSX app will not be openable by an OS 9 app - this is understandable, given that newer programs often use more advanced formats than older ones, even versions of the same program.
    If you know that you will be transporting a file from OSX to OS 9, try saving it in a form accessible by OS 9 - many programs will offer a list of alternate file formats when you do a Save As of the file, or (in some cases) an Export of it.
    Question: does the Internet connection (Internet Explorer vs. Safari play any role ?)
    It certainly can. If Safari saves a file in a proprietary format, then IE will probably not be able to open it. However, a file saved in plain html should be openable by most any browser.
    You might experiment with the settings in OS 9's File Exchange control panel, particularly the ones listed under PC Exchange. Adjusting some of these, or creating new linkages, may allow OS 9 to handle files which are openable by your OS 9 programs, but which are not identifiable by Finder.

  • Can't open a 2.3 GB TIFF that was created in CS5

    This is my first post - any help is greatly appreciated.
    I created a layered tiff file in PS CS5 and saved it with layers. It was 2.3GB so I got the warning that the file might not be readable in all programs. I assumed this wouldn't be a problem since I would only re-open it in PS anyway.
    Now when I try to open the file, I get this message:
    "Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop"
    After a bit of research on this forum, I took a look at the tiff file in TextEdit and it seemed strange to me that the Modify and Metadata date were right, but the CreateDate was 1903-12-31. I just created another 100kb or so tiff to see what that looks like, and the CreateDate is correctly showing 2011-01-04.
    So, I'm not sure why the wrong date showed up in the original 2.3GB file, but I went into Lightroom 3, changed the capture date from 1903-12-31 to 2010-12-31 and then wrote the new metadata back to the XMP file. Now, the tiff file in TextEdit shows the correct dates, but they're preceded by xap rather than xmp - not sure if that matters.
    Still, with what seems to be a valid CreateDate, I get the same message when trying to open the file. I tried to open it as a layered file in GIMP as I saw suggested. The file opens OK, but it's flattened so it doesn't help me much since I want to work on the layers.
    I've tried tossing the plist and that didn't help. I've tried running in 32 bit and that didn't help. I have my RAM allocation to the suggested 70% of my 14GB installed RAM - bumped it to 100% and shut off the option to enable OpenGL drawing but that didn't help.
    One other small bit of info - I saved a backup version of the same file when it was about 2.15GB in size - to a different disk - and that one will not open either.
    I'm really not sure what to do next. Any ideas please?
    Thanks, Dave
    My system info:
    PS CS5 version 12.0.2 running in 64 bit, Snow Leopard
    MacPro 3,1 2xquad core xeon
    ATI Radeon HD 3870 with 512MB vRAM
    14GB RAM
    130GB available capacity on my 320GB system hard drive

    I'm not sure about the size when it was open, only that the layered tiff is now 2.33GB. I've worked with larger files with more layers than this one and haven't had a problem. But then again, I used to save those as PSBs instead of tiffs. For no particular reason, I decided to try to save most files in tiff rather than psb where possible. I've never had a problem with larger PSBs.
    I have an internal scratch disk with about 750GB of free space - it's not set up with a separate scratch partition though. Perhaps I should do that.
    I just created a similar file that is 2.45GB when closed (according to the Finder info) and 3.11GB when opened (according to PS). After several closes/opens there seems to be no problem. When viewing the tiff file in TextEdit, the date is correct.
    So at this point, I still can't open the 2.33GB file that seems to have had the wrong XMP data written, but I can open up a slightly larger file. I'm wondering if it is in fact just the EXIF data that's causing the problem. The progress bar while reading tiff format gets to about 60% before the error message appears.
    I can open the file from Lightroom if I open it as a copy with LR adjustments applied, but that flattens the file. If all else fails I'll be able to work from there. Trying to avoid that since there were some layer elements I wanted to either remove or modify.
    One other note: I did download some new brushes for this project and loaded them into PS. I've gone back and reset them to the default set in case there was some issue related to a corrupt abr file (just reaching here....); but the file still won't open.
    Still hoping the layered file can be saved but am out of ideas.

  • How can I get a Mac to run a LabVIEW VI that was created for Windows? (it calls DLL files)

    This is for a spectrometer. A motor controller is connected by serial and a lock-in amplifier is connected through GPIB. I have a Windows version of the VIs I need to get it all running, but I need to get it running on a Mac. The program was written in LabVIEW 6.0.1 and I have both version of 6.1. Is there a type of file that Mac uses that are similar to DLLs? Is this even possible? Any advice is greatly appreciated.

    > Thanks for your help. The supplier of the VIs hasn't made a Mac

    You can open the VIs on a PC or Mac and double click on the DLL node.
    It will show you the parameter info, the function name, path to the DLL,
    etc.
    If you have the source code to the DLL, then make it on the mac using
    the Metrowerks CodeWarrior compiler. If you don't have the source, then
    you need to either shift to using diagram nodes exclusively or come up
    with some other way of replacing the DLL.
    For the details on compiling a DLL, you should look at your manual that
    came with CodeWarrior and look at the CIN Manual or search online for
    something ...

  • Importing data from Excel to generate "filled" PDF form that was created in Designer

    Hi there
    I have a form that was created in Designer.  The data that  I need to import is all in a Excel spreadsheet with the same fields as the form.
    Is it possible to import all the data so that it generates a printed PDF with the data on each line of excel?
    For example:
    If my excel file shows:
    First Name      Last Name     Phone Number        UserID
    John               Doe               416-777-9970           johndoe997
    Mike               Rogers           905-887-3398          mikerogers997
    In this example I would like to generate a PDF form for John and for Mike, each with their details filled out on the form based on the data in the excel sheet
    Thanks in advance!

    I have a acrobat reader, can I import text delimited data format to a PDF Form so that it can auto fill into forms that was created? If not, what about FDF and XML data

    Yes, you can do all of that via Tools - Forms - More Form Options - Import Data, if you have Acrobat.
    If you only have the free Reader then you can still do it, but it requires a script.

  • A Table that was created at Run time. A Row Properly Deleted from Table Is Still Present on Form with BindingNavigator

    Hello
    I have a dataset that was created at design time
    but - after I run the app, it randomly creates a table based on The Users name
    since I do not know the users name before had, the table is not part of my existing dataset
    (I actually used an insert into sql nonquery to just make this table a copy of the masterUserTable)
    Now - I have a binding navigator on my form, that is originally bound to masterUserTable, but my goal is to make it bound to the users table (let's say GabrielUserTable)
    I thought I did so with this code: 
            'TODO: This line of code loads data into the 'MyLearningDBDataSet.masterUserTable' table. You can move, or remove it, as needed.
            Me.MyMainDBTableAdapter.Fill(Me.MyLearningDBDataSet.masterUserTable)
            Dim ThisNewVariable As String = MyUserNameIs & "UserTable"
            Dim ThisNewTableName As New DataTable
            Me.MyLearningDBDataSet.masterUserTable.TableName = ThisNewVariable
            Me.MyMainDBTableAdapter.Fill(Me.MyLearningDBDataSet.masterUserTable)
    that appeared to do the trick  (but if it is incorrect please advice on the proper way to add a table made at runtime to a users existing datset)
    Else where in my code  I successfully execute the following NonQuery :
            SqlString= "DELETE FROM " & MyUserNameIs & "UserTable" & vbCrLf &
                "WHERE vState='" & txtStateInfo.Text & "';"
    I check in Visual Studio 2013 that the row was deleted from the "GabrielUserTable"  (Gabriel is the current value of MyUserNameIs) by using the Server Explorer and right clicking
    on the table and choosing show talbe data
    But the MyMainDBBindingNavigator is still showing the item I deleted.
    So after searching for answers - I created a new button for testing and added the following code to test if it would work
            Me.Validate()
            Me.MyMainDBBindingSource.EndEdit()
            Me.TableAdapterManager.UpdateAll(Me.MyLearningDBDataSet)
    but the data is still shwoing after deleting it with my NonQuery 
    Please Help!

    Hi genterprise,
    >> Now - I have a binding navigator on my form, that is originally bound to masterUserTable, but my goal is to make it bound to the users table (let's say GabrielUserTable)
    In my option, if you want to rebind the users table to the navigator, you need to set the BindingNavigator.BindingSource. Based on your description, it seems that you did not reset the datasoure of the MyMainDBBindingNavigator. It was the original datasource
    of the masterUserTable. For more details about BindingNavigator.BindingSource Property. You could refer the link below:

  • Need to edit a form that was created by someone else.

    Hello, I have to edit a form that was created by someone else. I made numerous changes to the text and repositioned a lot of the items, and it appeared fine on my computer. However, when I open it on my PC and other systems, the fonts are substituting and I'm getting strange characters where I changed the text. I tried embedding the fonts with the Preflight embed fonts, but it is still messed up. My client is anxious...not sure what else to check. Any help would be appreciated!

    You don't need to re-do the fields. If you create a new version of the PDF
    file just open the old one and use the Replace Pages command to insert the
    pages from the new version over the old ones. This will give you a new
    version of the file, with the existing form fields still in tact. Of
    course, you might need to adjust their location and/or size, but at least
    you won't have to start all over again...

  • I have a file that was created in FH 11 and I am using same version.Originator opens file and everything is fine and also earlier version opens it fine.when I open it the links shift 1/8" up and left.Has anybody had this happen to them

    I have a file that was created in FH 11 and I am using same version.Originator opens this file and everything is fine and also an earlier version opens it fine.When I open it it shifts the links 1/8" up and to the left.Has anybody ever had this happen to them?

    What file format(s) are the "links"?
    If raster images, do they contain clipping paths or transparency?
    What is your platform and OS?
    Were the FH documents created on the same platform (Mac or PC) as the one you are currently using?
    Were the linked files created on the same platform (Mac or PC) as the one you are currently using?
    Can you reproduce the problem with a newly created document and the same linked images?
    There was once an issue with transparent 1-bit TIFF images shifting, but I believe that was in a previous version of FH.

  • Add a note to a Calendar event that was created from Mac Mail

    When I create a Calendar event by clicking on a date within a Mac Mail message (you hover over a date in an email it draws a dashed box around the date and gives an option to create a Calendar event).  It creates an Event in my Calendar with the following fields:  Subject, Location, Date Time and alert fields, Invitees and a link to the mail message.  But - I can't seem to add a Note Field.  The only work-around seems to be to manually create a new calendar entry.
    Does anyone know how to modify an event created from Mac Mail to add a Note Field?
    iMac Retina 5K 27-inch Late 2014, OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.3, Calendar Version 8.0 (2034.9), Mail  Version 8.2 (2098).

    Thanks Brett for replying, but this doesn't work if the event is created by Mac Mail - which is my issue.  Sure it works with any other event but not one that has been created from within Mail.  If this is a bug I'm sure the Calendar people point the blame at the Mail people and vice versa but that doesn't help me.  But before I submit a report to Apple I thought I would see if I might be missing something obvious.
    See the attached screenshot of an event that was created by Mac Mail. There is no Add Notes field when the event is Double Clicked, Right Clicked or any other form of click.
