  • Issue with being able to fill in data and save pdf forms in adobe reader

    Hi All,
    This is my first time posting on this forum so not sure what way to go about it so i'll just start by explaining my problem.
    I purchased adobe acrobat xi standard to create pdf forms(fillable forms) so that the receipents of these forms can open them in adobe reader, save them on their local drive and fill them in.
    However, when I uploaded them online(as they will be downloaded from an internal website) - when the forms are opened in the browser this error appears
    Currently when this error appears the client canno fill in their data or save it.
    Any help on this issue would be appreciated!
    Noel

    Thanks for replying pat - that was another question I have. Is there a way I can get a dialog box to pop up when they click on the forms button?
    Like the following;
    As at the moment, they would have to click the actual "save" icon - and the same error will appear on their local disk?

  • I filled in a fillable pdf form and when i print it, the text in the fillable section gets cut off.

    I filled in a fillable pdf form and when i print it, the text in the fillable section gets cut off. What do I need to do to get the entire text to be printed. Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks

    What has this to do with Pages? You probably did this in Preview.

  • Why can't I create Fillable PDF Forms using Adobe Acrobat X Pro and upload to Dreamweaver?

    I can create fillable PDF Forms using Adobe Acrobat X Pro. I can email them to someone using Adobe Reader (free) and they can fill them, save and email to me. But when I upload the form to Dreamweaver CS5, the form is not fillable. And yes, I saved it as a Reader Extended PDF-Enable Additional Features.

    I see no reason for this form to fail in Reader. Some questions for you.
    1. On the system with Adobe Reader, what is the system and the version of Adobe Reader?
    2. Are you viewing the PDF in a browser on the system with Reader, or in an Adobe Reader window?
    3. If it's a browser
    (a) what is the browser
    (b) if you download the file instead, and open directly in Reader, what happens?

  • I am unable to copy fillable fields from a pdf form into Microsoft Word or notepad....Help! thank you!

    I am unable to copy fillable fields from a pdf form I created in Adobe X Pro into a Microsoft Word or Notepad document. Please help! Thank you!!

    I have created a fillable form. Part of the information from that form needs to be copied and sent to another department at work. Once i complete the fillable form (e.g. select options from a drop down, enter test in test boxes that are on the form) when i copy that section, i only get the non-fillable information pasted into word or notepad, the drop down selections and fillable text do not copy.

  • How to return fillable pdf form via distribute function in live cycle?

    I am trying to have a fillable form be submitted back/returned by e-mail (through using outlook)to multiple users, via the distribute form function through livecycle, so that they know a pdf form has been completed and sent back and that I can place the information in the dataset as well (in case I need to export the info). Currently the distribute function only accepts it going to one e-mail, even if I seperate the e-mails with a ";". How do I have the form e-mail multiple users and allow me to place the form field data go into a dataset via distribution?

    I tried it and I am seeing what you are seeing. If I send to a single user then it works fine. I think it might be outlook blocking the multi-address through programmatic interfaces. They do this so that viruses cannot turn your mail client into a spam generation. This is simply a guess.

  • NEW! Import Fillable PDF Form and Collect Responses

    FormsCentral now allows you to import an existing fillable PDF form and use the FormsCentral service to collect and analyze the submitted data. You no longer have to recreate your existing PDF forms within the service in order to take advantage of FormsCentral’s data collection/analysis capabilities.
    You can also use popular tools like Adobe Acrobat X Pro or Adobe InDesign to create PDF forms that work with FormsCentral.
    To import a PDF form go to the “My Forms” tab, click the More button on the toolbar and select “Import PDF Form.” Note: FormsCentral does not support PDF forms created using the LiveCycle Designer (XML-based forms).
    Once imported the normal Design tab is replaced with an “Imported Form” tab that allows you to place a Submit button on the PDF form. You can place it on the top left or right of the first page, or place it on the bottom left or right of the last page. A thumbnail shows where the button will appear.
    Click to view larger image
    The Options tab shows options that are available for PDF forms (Note: PDF Forms do not support Redirect URLs or Payments so these are not shown)
    Click to view larger image
    The Distribute tab allows you to open the form and download the submit-enabled PDF file for distribution. The PDF file can be filled out, saved and submitted using the free Adobe Reader.
    Click to view larger image
    The Response and Summary Report tabs will show the data submitted from the PDF form. They function as they do for a normal form file that you created from scratch or template.

    I followed this process to import my PDF form.  The link I have on my web page is displaying an error from FormsCentral.  The link works but the web page is confusing to customers.  The message is: 
    An error has occurred.
    The form does not exist. Please re-enter the web address as the link may be misspelled.
    When I saved the submission-enabled PDF, I could only save it to my computer.  I then had to upload it to the web site server and created a link on my web page to point to that URL.  
    How can I get rid of the Adobe FormsCentral message on the web page?

  • No options under the distribute tab to copy url link or embed a fillable PDF form

    I Have a paid basic account is not giving me the option to under the  distribute tab to copy url link or embed a fillable PDF form? Simply put it doesn't show up for an option. I want to embed the form into my website but the embed feature is not showing up? Please help I have been at this all day.

    Based on your answer above, it sounds like you uploaded the file to your website, as opposed to the function being available from formscentral.
    If you have downloaded the file from Acrobat Pro then uploaded it to a website and had the upload pinned to a download button, then that is going to be a function of your website. Your workaround has nothing to do with formscentral itself.
    You essentially uploaded the file to your website, then made it a downloadable file. The reason it is opening in your browser is because you have the Adobe Reader/Acrobat plug-in for your browser. It's not actually "embedded". If you uninstalled all of your adobe plug-ins, then it would open Reader or Acrobat, not in the browser. The reason it only opens in Safari is likely due to the fact that you only have the Adobe Reader/Acrobat plug-in enabled for Safari, and it is disabled for the other browsers.
    I hope this makes sense!

  • 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.

  • In a fillable PDF form, can I have choose to have NO default choice in a drop down list?

    In a fillable PDF form, can I have choose to have NO default choice in a drop down list... so that a user is REQUIRED to make selection instead?
    I've set the question as "required", but the default answer makes this useless.
    I want to make sure people actively answer this question rather than accidentally missing it, and me ending up with the default rather than the correct answer!

    Thanks Gilad.
    Similar to what you suggested, I utlimately opted to put a question mark "?" as the default answer - it's just a pity this doesn't address my need for users to be "required" to answer the question.
