PDF form  in "extended PDF Reader"

I create a PDF form and save it as "extended PDF Reader", enabling additional features.
When I open it with Acrobat Reader, the first time I can save, but when I open it a second time, not to save directly but asks me to save with another name. Can I avoid this "save as", each time it
opens the document?
I use Acrobat X.

I've already extended the rights and made sure to save to activate that... as well as password protected the docs etc... still nothing...
I am aware that those with Basic Adobe Reader need rights extended to be able to use functions available to Adobe Pro.

  • Help inserting a filled out pdf form into a pdf report.

    Why can I not insert a filled out pdf form into my pdf reports?  I am new to Adobe Acrobat X. 

    See what it says under: File > Properties > Description > PDF Producer
    If it's an XFA form, is should say something like "Adobe LiveCycle Designer [version#]"
    You can also open the interactive JavaScript console (Ctrl+J) and enter the following line of code:
    xfa
    and with the cursor on the line, hit Ctrl+Enter, of the Enter key on the numeric keypad.
    If it's an XFA form it will return:
    [object XFAObject]
    Otherwise, it will return "xfa is not defined" and other stuff.

  • Saving pdf form with extended Reader rights

    Hello,
    I want to save form changes without further confirmations in Reader version X ("Save" and not "Save as...").
    - If you use a pdf form with enabled Reader rights, you should be able to save any changes made in form field by using the Reader.
    - To save changes use "File / Safe" or press CRTL+S
    Result:
    - Save-as window will appear
    - After choosing save button you will be asked to overwrite existing file.
    Expected results:
    File should be saved without further confirmations! In Reader version 9 there was no problem with that.
    Does anybody had the same problem and found a solution?
    Regards,
    Christian

    OK, it seems to be a typical "it's-not-a-bug-it's-a-feature"-problem. But I found no way to avoid the overwrite question during saving. I noticed that the question appears only the first time when you click on the save button. If you do further changes in form fiels and click a second time on the save button the document will be overwritten without additional warnings. Maybe it's a feature to prevent users from overwriting empty forms by asking for a new filename and so on..
    However, we are using the reader in conjunction with a document management software and the overwrite warning disturbs our enterprise workflow. So the only insufficient solution for my problem is to downgrade all users to version 9 again.
    Hope next version of reader will be better in disabling unwanted features ;-)

  • PDF form not working in Reader 7.0.5

    Hello!
    We had created PDF form with Adobe Designer to work with Acrobat Reader 7. It contains a submit button to send XML with results via e-mail.
    This form works fine with Reader 7.0.0., but not with version 7.0.5. - in the latter version the submit button doesn't work.
    Any clues?
    Thanks,

  • How to use Acrobat 9 standard to create a PDF form that an Acrobat reader can save

    Hi,
    I'm evaluating Acrobat 9 standard edition. I want to create a PDF with a form that allow Acrobat Reader users to fill in the form and save to their local machine.
    I looked at "Can I save a filled out PDF form using the free Adobe Reader? "
    However, it refers to version 8 and has a link to another page that states to look in Acrobat 8 help. Well I can't anything for how to create right-enable PDF in the help.
    How can I do this in Acrobat 9?
    Thanks.

    I think that the right's enabling was added to AA9 Std. It was not part of AA8 Std as far as I know. However, you need to read the restrictions on the use of the reader rights. There is a 500 form use limit. If you exceed that limit you are supposed to contact Adobe for negotiations for further use. I do not think those restrictions have changed with AA9, but read the EULA to check it out.

  • How to paste into PDF form opened by Adobe Reader?

    Hi,
    I need to fill out and fax a PDF form online that I've opened with Adobe Reader 9. Typing in the information is straightforward enough, however I can't seem to be able to paste onto the form. Is there some feature that I need to change that will enable me to do this?
    I know the alternative is to print out the form and then fill it out but my preference is to do this online, if possible.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Do you mean "open in full screen mode"?
    If so there is an example here: https://acrobat.com/#d=JK2I24ZgmsvMr6BtCQNMOg
    The script is in buttons to show the separate functions, but you can combine the ones you want in the docReady event.
    Hope that helps,

  • Alternative to webservice for data exchange in PDF (Form Export Rights in Reader)

    Hello,
    I'm exchanging data between my pdf and a web server. Basically, the pdf needs to get some xml string from the web server, alternatively send some xml string to it. This is now done using a webservice, and it works fine with the SOAP javascript object. However, it doesn't work in Adobe Reader, because (quote from the docs):
    "The SOAP methods connect, request and response are available only for documents open in Acrobat Pro and  Acrobat Standard and for documents with Form Export Rights open in  Adobe Reader 6.0 or later."
    It turns out I need to enable Form Export Rights to get webservices work in Reader.
    Now, I was wondering if there's another way to exchange data between my pdf and a web server that doesn't involve enabling those Form Export Rights in Reader.
    Note that I need to be able to parse the response string xml from the web server in pdf using its javascript API.
    Thanks for any suggestions,
    James

    Your only other alternative is to POST th einformation to the web server via a submit operation. This is the same as POSTING on an HTML form.

  • Converting PDF forms from Acrobat to reader, Images won't upload?

    Hello,
    I've created an editable PDF form in Acrobat and saved it so that the document can be populated in Reader and saved. Only problem is that the functionality to upload an image is not working, you click on it in Reader and nothing happens? I understand that LiveCycle Designer is the one to use, but it only works on Windows, I'm a Mac. Is there a way of saving the PDF in Acrobat Pro so that both the editable text fields and image upload functionality work in Reader?
    Thanks

  • Email PDF Form as a PDF Document

    It seems as though this has been answered over on the "ES" side, but I can't find it for anyone (like me) using 7.0:
    I am using Adobe LiveCycle Designer 7.0 and I've created a PDF form and it contains a "Submit" button to send the form. The form sends only XML information, but once all the fields are  filled out I need this document to save as a regular, unalterable, PDF.  This will be distributed via email to a small group who have Reader, and they need to save this electronically as a permanent copy of the file.
    I tried altering the XML in designer so that is sends "PDF" rather than XML, but the fields just don't retain the field data...that is, the form is blank.
    The  form needs to be rendered and submitted as a PDF doc not a PDF form.

    Check out http://www.pdfemail.net/
    With PDFEmail.net, you can submit XML, FDF, XFDF, XDP data formats or PDF format.
    PDFEmail.net can merge the Data (XML) submission with a blank form using ASP.net, and attaches it to an e-mail message and sends it through SMTP, without client side e-mail software such as OUTLOOK.
    PDFEmail.net is installed on a workstation, and generates scripts and libraries you "UPLOAD" to your ASP.net webserver. There is no server-side installation, and zero programming knowledge is required. PDFEmail.net creates the scripts for you, and you just point your submit button action to the URL of the script.
    PDFEmail.net uses iTextSharp technologies, and includes 1 year of free technical support.

  • How do I save edited PDF forms as editable PDF templates?

    We need to download empty pdf forms, add some generic details (eg our company name and address) and then save that as a template so we can then open it and fill out through the year for different clients with their own individual data without having to fill in our own address again.
    Preview cannot do this. On Tiger you can save the edited file, but it prevents it from then being editable again; in Leopard you can fill in the form with your data, save it, then open your saved file and edit it again but none of the data you added the first time has been saved.
    We have to go into Windows and fire up Acrobat Reader 4.0 which has this functionality. All versions of Acrobat above v4 on both Windows and Mac were unable to do this so Preview isn't alone. It is frustrating though as we have to do this all the time - we fill out tax return forms for many different clients each year and really don't want to have to add our data manually each time.
    Any suggestions? Any settings I can tweak anywhere?

    Basilisk wrote:
    If Preview is not for editing, why has it been made possible with the Leopard release to reorder the pages within a pdf, delete pages, and add completely different pages from other pdfs?
    There's a huge difference between reordering existing pages and altering their content. The PDF specification is quite vast and Apple doesn't even attempt to support much of it because of the work involved.
    The bottom line is that Preview doesn't do what you want it to and that's certainly not going to change anytime within the next year, so it's up to you to decide what to spend your money on. Since it seems that you are using this for business purposes I'd say it's a little silly to gripe about such a trivial investment, but again, it's up to you.
    You could also hire someone to put together your templates for you.

  • Help me configure my webserver to accept completed .pdf forms via free Acrobat Reader

    OK, just purchased Acrobat Pro XI subscription, I have already created the following .pdf at the link below:
    http://www.pdfdoctor.net/eca/creditapp004_02.pdf
    on the last page I have a Submit button, that will send/upload the completed .pdf to my web server, the .pdf is working fine, I just need help configuring my server to accept the file submissions itself, such as the following:
    1. what should be the directory file permissions?
    2. do I need a htaccess file in that directory or in my main root directory and what should be in it, I HAVE NO IDEA, once I get this working then I will be set, please help, thankyou.

    Submitting in HTML format is useful if you're only interested in the form data, but since your form includes digital signature fields, you will want to submit the entire PDF. Using multiple digital signature fields intended for different signers doesn't make much sense for a web form, unless you intend to serve a form that was signed by one person to then be signed by another.
    If submitting the entire PDF, the script can save the entire incoming POSTed data to a file somewhere, in addition to all of the security-related things it needs to handle, and then return a response. As mentioned earlier, it is usually best if this response is an FDF. Here's a link to an introduction to some of the basic concepts: Working with Form Data in Acrobat X | Acrobat Community TV | Adobe TV
    starting at the 9:50 mark. It deals with submitting in HTML format, but it should get you started.

  • Export completed PDF Form to New PDF ???

    Hello,
    I have a USPS PDF that is filled out complete with all the needed information such as names, dates, weight, and so on. This is from July 2009, the USPS just came out the exact same form for 2010 and I want to know if there is a way to export the July 2009 form information to the 2010 sheet. They are the same sheet exactly just the date has changed ? I have acrobat 8 Pro.
    Thanks

    Bill@VT wrote:
    For the data, you can also try an export to a data file (FDF typically) from the old form and then import the data to the new form.
    The success would depend on the same field names being used.
    I was going to suggest that too until I looked at the second form. It has no form fields.

  • Extended user rights and 500 users limits on a PDF Form

    Hello,
    I read that there's 500 users limits for using extended user rights on Acrobat Pro 9.
    Here's my situation:
    - I built an application PDF form with extended user rights for Adobe Reader users to save the form. And I'm going to be hosting it on the web for users to download the PDF form to their local hard drive.
    - The form will have a button to submit to a web page with a script for processing FDF, XFDF, XML, or HTP form export.
    My question is:
    1. Would it be violating the 500 users limits if more than 500 users download the form and save the PDF after filling out fields, but not submit the data back to the server?
    2. What would happen if more than 500 responses are received through above method? Would new visitors still be able to save the PDF form for their archive purpose after downloading it from our web site?
    Thanks.

    Can Adobe's licensing department define "extract"?  I know there is a lot of confusion here and I'm trying to understand.
    Here is our scenario:  We have developed an Adobe fillable form which we will be sending to 1000 customers.  Customers can open the form (in Reader v9.5 and greater) and fill out the form, validate it and then print it.  The customers are not sending the PDF files back to us and the PDF data is not being collected so there is no data we can extract from Adobe files (we are not that advanced yet).  Customers will just print the information, then fax or send back to us by U.S. Mail. 
    When we receive the completed information (via fax/mail, not PDF), we read information off our form.  Does Adobe consider reading our information “extracting” with our eyes?  I’m not sure how they can consider that extracting?  I would think Adobe owns the mechanism (aka PDF file) for validating our content, but they wouldn’t own the content on our form if we want to physically read it, right?
    Adobe needs to clarify this more clearly and I’ve ready their interpretation of the Policy, but it doesn’t address this scenario.  http://www.adobe.com/products/eulas/pdfs/Reader_Extension_Policy_A10-5-31-2011.pdf
    George, I don't think you are an Adobe Employee.  I see you are a MVP, but you are not officiall speaking for Adobe are you?
