Problems with editable PDFs

I have created an editable PDF that I want to send clients, have them fill information in, then save and email back to me.
This works on my machine but when I send it out, people cannot save it. They can only save a blank version.
I have extended the features already. Could the problem be something to do with versions? Do they need to download a newer version of Reader?
Any help much appreciated! Thanks

By extended reader rights do you mean Save As > Reader Exteded PDF > Enable Additional Features YES I did this Here is a link to some PDFs with this problem http://www.wkrause.com/new/

Problem with editable pdf's from mac to pc

I created an editable pdf document with Adobe Acrobat Pro. Users on a mac typed in the document and saved it and that all worked fine. Then they tried to open on a pc and the document was blank. Has anyone experienced this or have a suggestion?

It sounds like they used Apple's Preview to fill in the forms. If that's the case, what you're seeing is expected behavior. Preview doesn't handle form data properly.
I would suggest you ask your users to install Adobe Reader XI to ensure that form data is preserved when saving the PDF: http://get.adobe.com/reader/

Problem with preview PDF files on Windows 7 32bit

Hello,
in my office I have a problem with preview PDF files on my computers. The files are allright, but if I select a file and click on preview mode after ~ 10sec operation system write something "Preview this file is corrupt for PDF Preview Handler wrong". On other 64bit computers with same programs the preview is work. I try uninstall all Adobe soft (Reader, Flash), clean all Adobe data from folders in root and in register, but it is not solve this problem. On Microsoft forums wrote me, that the problem is probably with AR plugin.
So, can someone help me?
Config PC:
Windows 7 32/64bit Pro
Intel i3, 4GB
Adobe Reader 11.0.5
Adobe Flash Player 15 ActiveX
Adobe Flash Player 15 plugin

Thank you for help.

I think I figured it out after reading other forums. Thanks!

Problem with Edit IN function between LR 2.3 and PS CS3

I recently upgraded my system to a Windows Vista 64 bit Core 2 Quad with 8 GB. Lightroom now works and loads images the way it should. I do have one major concern and need any help possible.
I am using LR 2.3 in 64 bit and PS CS3 ver 10.0.1 (which is 32 bit - loads slowly but otherwise works fine). The problem I am encountering is in LR Develop / Photo / Edit In... - using any of the menu items:
"Edit in Abode Photoshop CS3"
"Open as Smart Object In Photoshop"
"Merge to Panorama in Photoshop"
"Merge to HDR in Photoshop"
"Open as layers in Photoshop"
Photoshop opens but no image(s) are exported and I receive the message in LR - "The file could not be edited because Adobe Photoshop CS3 could not be launched."
Photoshop, however, was launched but no image exported and so I can't work on the image in PS. The appropriate TIFF image is created in LR for the first two menu items - nothing for the last three menu items.
I can create a partial work around by setting PS as an external editor, however, I can't use 4 of 5 of the menu items.
All the menu items work fine in Windows XPpro.
Any help is much appreciated.
PS I also tried the most recent Window 7 RC with exactly the same results.
Thanks

I wasn't shouting - I just cut and paste the exact text and font in its original size and type as was shown in the message. Never had a thought that someone would be offended by cutting and pasting exactly what was in a message - it would appear that John Williams saw it for what it was.
However, sorry if I offended you.

No, it is not set to overprint. Also, I have to add that the printing results were not consistent. Sometimes it covered and sometimes it did not.

Problem with 'Edit Locally' command -- Due to IISProxy?

Hi,
We have a problem with 'Edit Locally' command since we are using Windows Authentication. Our architecture is:
SAP EP 6.0 SP2 Patch 28 (Solaris)
IIS Proxy (Windows 2003)
The situation is:
If we access to SAP Portal using old url (directly to Solaris) using form-based authentication we do not have any problem with 'edit locally' command.
However, if we access to SAP Portal using IISProxy and Windows Authentication we get an 'Operation failed' error message.
     Java plug-in console shows the following message:
cargar: clase com/sapportals/wcm/app/docapplet/DocApplet.class no encontrada.
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.sapportals.wcm.app.docapplet.DocApplet.class

     ... 10 more
Where is the problem? Is due to authentication method? SAP Portal or IISProxy configuration?
Thanks,

Thanks for your comment,
Now, we have tested with version 1.5.0_01 plugin version but the result is the same: 'Operation failed'
This is a very important topic to solve before installing Windows Authentication in a productive environment.
Has anybody any solution?

After iphoto 9.1.5. problem with editing photos

After I did the 9.1.5. update I have a problem with editing photo's. My photo's are about 35mb a piece.. they are panoramic photo's. Editing used to work perfect in iphoto 8.. after I went to iphoto 9 it became buggy.. (it crashes on certain photo's that 8 could handle without a problem).. but I learned to live with it. Now I did the 9.1.5. update and I can edit maybe 2 or 3 pics without a problem.. then when I get to number 4 Iphoto will show me a black screen.
If I close iphoto and start it again, I can continue where I left off.. untill I get to a picture that seems to ruin the party.. and then I have to restart again..
Iphoto 8 used to work so smooth with panoramic photo's.. dont know where it went wrong..

There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
1. Permissions in the Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
2. Minor Database corruption: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/Library/ Caches...
5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
If none of these help:
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

Problems with some PDF files

Hi,
I have problems with some PDF files. After clicking on link to the file Safari shows me insted of normal document (which is working on Windows) hashes, numbers etc like it was a problem with coding or something. First I was using Preview, I though that maybe installing Acrobat Reader with plugins will solve the problem, but ofcourse it didn't. Did somebody has this same problem?

Back up all data.
Please triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
defaults delete -app Safari WebKitOmitPDFSupport
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Quit Safari. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing the key combination command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear below what you entered. You can then quit Terminal. Test.

Problems with editing/opening PDF's in Acrobat X

We have 2 situations going on with Acrobat X:
1. We are scanning drawings on a Xerox Wide Format scanner to PDF's. When I open them in Acrobat 8 Pro I can rotate and edit them. When my boss opens them in Acrobat X the same file opens as a PDF/A and he can't do anything with them. Any thoughts on how we can change this?
2. When my boss get's PDF attachements in his email he is not able to open them, he has to email them to me so I can open them in Acrobat 8 Pro.
We were considering upgrading the whole office to the latest version of Acrobat but until we can get these 2 basic items solved it won't happen. Any help is appriciated.
We are running Macs with OS X verison 10.8.4
Thanks
Christinia

Hi Christina,
For first issue, you are scanning your PDFs as PDF/A i.e why Acrobat 10 cannot edit them. (Acrobat 8 could edit PDF/A, this feature not to enable editing on PDF/A files were added in later versions). Now you can:
1. Either turnoff the checkbox to create PDF/A while scanning as shown in image below: You need to click on "PDF Output Options" button on the scan dialog to access this and other options.
or
2. When you open PDF/A in Acrobat X, you will get a blue message bar at the top, saying that "This file has been opened read only" along with the button "Enable Editing". You can click on "Enable Editing" to modify the pdf. See image below:
This should take care of the first issue.
Regarding the second issue of PDF attachments, I am not sure what could be the problem. It may be an OS issue related to file association. You can try associating the pdf files to Acrobat. To do this, Right Click on any pdf file and click "Get Info", then under "Open With" panel, select Acrobat and click on "Change All". See image below:
Thanks,
Varinder

Problem with Copying PDFs to any application other than iBooks

OK here is my problem,
I used to be able to associated PDFs with other PDF readers (via iTunes > APPS > File Sharing). I just dragged and dropped and all was right in my world. However, all of a sudden this stopped working. I have no clue as to what caused this problem to arise. The only thing I remember 'doing' was adding some new apps.
I cannot use the PDFs through iBook, well I can but it doesn't meet my needs (highlighting, copying and pasting and adding notes). So instead I want to use PDF HD. I used to have on PDF Masker and Good Reader, but neither does what I want.
Suggestions?

Hello Sin K,
so proxy and Tomcat are located on different machines as well? Is the proxy able to commuicate with the Tomcat on the configured internal ports and is the proxy able to lookup the hostname you configured for the Tomcat?
For the connector, the proxyName and proxyPort should be the parameters the client uses to call APEX. So if your clients should call via http://proxyserver:8080/testsin/apex the settings would be
proxyName=proxyserver
proxyPort=8080Reason for this is that applications (e.g. the APEX Listener) generate there URL references with these parameters.
But does your proxy actually serve on port 8080? And is that port accessible by clients? Do clients accept cookies from that server?
In my case, there is only one 302 which redirects to http://host:port/apex/f?p=4500:1000:sessionid which is correct.
If you look into your first post request in firebug, what's in the request header?

Problems with saving pdf as a word doc

hello, i
recently upgraded to acrobt x pro, and i went to convert a one-page pdf into a word doc. i went to "file,"
"save as," "word document, and when i went to view
the word doc, the format/layout/font, etc. was completely garbled. what could i be doing wrong? thanks!

Your problem is likely with the PDF not having the tags that provide the format information you are expecting. Such information is not needed for the PDF, but is used for the conversion back to WORD. You could try converting a file from DOC to PDF and back to DOC with both a print to the Adobe PDF printer and PDF Maker to get the format info. See how they compare and you should get the idea.
