Saving an interactive PDF at the client

I have the LiveCycle Designer and have created an interactive form. I want some of my staff to be able to save the document on their computer, but they only have reader. Apparently this can be accomplished with the reader extensions, is this part of x pro, or do I have to purchase it. Also there is another option to make the PDF Reader Enabled. I have looked in acrobet for the advanced tab and can't seem to find where to do this. Could someone please advise as to what I need to do and where I need to go to get this done. Itn is most frustrating. Thanks for your help.

Thanks Paul, could you please let me know how I would go about doing this in acrobat Pro.

Hi Melbus_SE,
Are you downloading files from your Acrobat.com cloud storage? If so, what browser are you using, and are you on Mac OS or Windows? Has something changed on your system since you were able to download/open PDF files successfully? What version of Acrobat or Reader are you using to open these files?
Sorry to ask so many questions, but your answers will help us get to the bottom of this issue.
I look forward to hearing back from you.

How can I make the SWF page in my interactive PDF keep the page change on-click

Hi there,
I'm creating an interactive PDF presentation for a client, and I've spent some time learning how to animate the text for certain slides, export to SWF and place that SWF back in the InDesign file. I then export to an interactive PDF to display in full screen mode. The problem I'm having is that I can cycle forward through the PDF slides by clicking until I reach the SWF page, but then the hand cursor changes to an arrow and I can't move the presentation forward in full screen mode.
I'm sure there's an easy fix, I just can't work it out. I'd be really grateful for any help.
Many thanks
Andrew

Bob: it will be a PDF presentation fed from a laptop to a large display screen with about 50 slides (1920px x 1080px) to support a speaker (person). Most of the slides are static text or image slides, but where we want images to fade in/out we've created an SWF and dropped it into that page in InDesign.
Trevor: Many thanks, just checked that and those settings are correct.
Jeffrey: I just tried your advice but the problem remains.
The strange thing is that if I press enter each time the slides (pages) move forward properly, but any touch on the mouse and the whole thing won't move... I'm going to look to see if I can drop in other video formats instead.

Saving a interactive form into the application

hi gurus,
I have developed an application which contains interactive form design by getting values from the back end r/3 system.
The PDF is being populated by getting the data from the back end.Now my problem is that I need to open this PDF in an external window.
Earlier I have embed this interactive form in a view and the view contains the PDF, now the PDF should be opened in a external window and does be in the view.
So I thought of saving the file into the src/mimes/components and then call the PDF on file download.
Can you help me in this issue.
Thanks and regards,
kris

Interactive buttons not working on interactive pdf when the Indesign links are set correctly

Hi all,
I have one Indesign CS6 manual containing 17 files, 126 pages. This has been set to a book file.
This has been translated into 14 languages and now we are having problems creating the interactive pdfs.
After fixing the broken interactive buttons within the Indd files, we are finding that when we create the interactive pdfs, not all interactive button links work. When we recreate the same langauge interactive pdf we are finding that the buttons that were not working the 1st time, are now working, and some buttons that were working, are now not working.
Is there a bug somewhere.
Any idea why the interactive buttons work one minute and then not the next, and vice versa.
Any idea how we can fix.
I’m using Indesign CS6 and Acrobat 9 Pro.
Thanks in advance.

Hi LoriAUC,
Thanks for this. Very much appreciated.
I have asked sagar-khanna from the other discussion is he knows more about the broken links etc.
Thanks again.

This may be possible with a PDF form and JavaScript, but not 'out of the box' so to speak. You may want to try our JavaScript forum to see if anyone has any ideas: http://forums.adobe.com/community/acrobat/acrobat_scripting

Saving a interactive pdf.

Hello,
I followed this https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/library/user-interface-technology/wd%20java/wdjava%20archive/offline%20interactive%20pdf%20form%20using%20download.pdf
to design a offline interactive pdf. When I run the DC, I get this exception.
com.sap.tc.webdynpro.services.exceptions.WDRuntimeException: pdfSource of InteractiveForm UI element should be populated with pdf binary content in USE_PDF mode
In the template project I see the designed pdf under
TutWD_UploadDownloadInteractiveFormsrcmimesComponentscom.sap.tut.wd.uploaddownloadinteractiveform.UploadDownloadInteractiveFormComp
In my DC, I do not see my designed pdf. Do I have to manually save the designed pdf at this location. I am not sure how to save the newly designed pdf.
Thanks
Tony.

Hi Tony,
Please check the type of PDFSource (Context attribute) in the viw where Interactive form is embedded. The type should be set to Binary. Also check if the pdfSource propety of interactive form points to this context attribute.
This attribute stores the generated Interactive form in binary form at runtime.
Hope this helps!!

Designing for print, tablets and interactive pdfs at the same time

Hi everyone,
I have a large document of proposal master pages that I would like to update with CS6. My usual work flow, when I need to make a new proposal, is to open a new document and just move over the master pages I need. This depends on which products they want, etc. Then I override the master pages in the new document and make whatever customizations I need for that particular customer.
Now with CS6, I'm thinking that I will just have the pages be pages (with fewer masters). I will make an alternate layout directed at each market segment we have, and also these pages for tablets and interactive PDFs. (Sometimes we are asked to provide a digital copy of proposals). Then, when I have a new proposal to do, I will do a Save As and make a copy of the main doc. Then I will just delete all the pages and the alternate layouts I don't need.
A few questions:
1. How do I set up my "intent." Most of these master pages are two pages, so I think the digital publishing intent messes that up.
2. Do you think this new set up would make the file huge? I have had size issues in the past and the file is already very sluggish.
3. Is this the best way to go about this work flow?
Thank you guys so much. This forum has been so helpful to me!

How do I create an interactive pdf form my clients can actually use?

In the new CS6 Indesign (which is very easy to use to make forms) I've gone through all the steps to make a beautiful form whose buttons, text fields, and hyperlinks all work (great!) but now I've stumbled across one VITAL problem: the submit form button does not work!
I’ve set it up as I’ve seen it done on videos, as a “submit form” type, with the address “mailto: emailaddress.”
Once I exported the file to a pdf interactive form, my "Print form" button works well, and I though I'd fixed the problem when I downloaded adobe reader to read my form, however, no matter what type of computer I use with it, when I hit the "submit form" button, a message saying something to the effect of “you must open in your browser” pops up.
When dragged the pdf document into my browser like the message suggested, not only did the “submit form” button still not work, but now I cannot interact with any of the buttons or fields!
My goal here is simple: make an interactive form my clients can access online (whether as a downloadable pdf or directly on my website) that they can fill out and submit to us directly to our email. As many of our clients are older, I’d like to make it as easy as possible for them to use our system, and be able to just hit the “submit form” button instead of having to go through the trouble of attaching the finished pdf they filled out to an email and submitting to us.
All the videos I’ve come across so far talk about how to MAKE these forms, but not how to set them up to be used realistically for a business. Any help I can have would be appreciated, I don’t mind so much how this gets done, as long as it is easy for my clients to access the form and fill it out easily and quickly.
Thank you in advance,
~Kara

Saving project as .pdf changes the colors in Pages '09

I have made a brochure and I want to use a royal blue on 2 of the 3 banners. In pages, it shows as royal blue but when I email the saved PDF version to myself, 2 of the 3 banners turn purple. I have tried to change the colour many different ways, it always looks ok in pages, but when I receive the email, the colours are off.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Ellen

is there a way to get a royal blue with those sliders or do I need to use something else? The closest I could get to royal blue was a slate blue.
Colourants (CMYK combinations) do not define colours except in the context of a particular ICC destination colour space; in ISO PDF/X-3 technically termed an OutputIntent.
It is correct that CMYK colourant format and an ICC source colour space of class PRTR Printer and colourant format CMYK can be chosen to create the colours.
In this case, the CMYK sliders are actually the user interface to CIELa*b D50 colour specification, since specifying colours in CIELa*b is unlike everyday language colour specification.
If the ICC PRTR source colour space, in this case Generic CMYK Profile, is other than the ICC PRTR destination colour space, the colourant combinations are converted to keep the colour appearance.
So what's the problem with specifying colours in CMYK? The problem is that CMYK colour spaces are very, very device dependent with lots of non-linearities in the graybalance.
If the system is used as it is set up by default, the source colour space will be the Generic RGB Profile which is an Apple Sony CRT calibrated to 6500 Kelvin and gamma 1.8 prior to OS X 10.6 and sRGB for OS X 10.6 and later. These colour spaces are linear.
However, these RGB MNTR Monitor colour spaces are too small to specify many colours that could have been formed by specifying in larger RGB MNTR Monitor source colour spaces before converting into the large colour spaces of inkjet printers.
Playing with 3D colour space comparison in the Apple ColorSync Utility can be helpful in learning periods.

Saving a Adobe Pdf so the toolbars are not viewable and as a jpg without blurry images.

Hi I have recently purchased a copy of Adobe Acrobat Pro 11 for the first time. I used to create all my documents in Word and then save as a PDF. When hen opening the PDF it would just show the PDF document without toolbars etc. Now when I open it I can see the toolbars (is that normal or is their a clean way I can save this document to share with fellow workers? I don't want it to be editable so not worried about the toolbars etc.
When sharing this do they see the toolbars etc.? I don't know the right terms but I want it to look clean as in a book.
Also when trying to save as a jpg it's all blury? any ideas what I am doing wrongs.
Thankyou for you help in advance this is driving me nuts.

Which software were you using previously to open the PDF file?
Also, could you post a screenshot of the previous and the current view of the document screen?

Saving a Signed PDF, without the '-signed' suffix being added to the filename

I am experiencing an issue with Adobe reader 11.
I have a number of users who will be authorizing and signing invoices with a digital Jpeg signature (not Echosign).
The intention is then to save the file in the same location on the Network, replacing the original file.
However, since using version 11, it appears that as soon as you add a signature to an invoice, you are prompted to save the file as: {filename}-signed
Having the '-signed' added to the file, then means we will be left with 2 copies of the invoice on the network drive. And as the other part of the process involves opening the invoices by using a hyperlink, we will have big problems with duplicated files etc...
I know that the user should be able to delete the '-signed' extension, but errors may occur, where they don't always delete accurately.
So, is there a way to switch this facility off?
In Version 10.1.6 this didn't appear to be a problem, but i have a user who experiences the problem i 10.1.7 also. OS include Win 7 And Xp, dependent on which user, but the problem isn't OS specific
thanks for your help

I did not make myself clear enough - my mistake. The user is prompted with the following code - which does not save the modified document on YES.
var cMsg = "Do you want to save changes to ‘PFSL-18, 06.96.pdf’ before closing?";
var nRtn = app.alert(cMsg,1,3,"PFSL-18");
//Yes
if(nRtn==4)
this.saveAs("../Mutual Fund Forms/PFSL-18, 06.96.pdf", this);
this.closeDoc("../Mutual Fund Forms/PFSL-18, 06.96.pdf", this);
else
//No
this.closeDoc("../Mutual Fund Forms/PFSL-18, 06.96.pdf", this);
