Submit Email PDF in Acrobat X Pro / LiveCycle ES2

I'm pulling out my hair trying to get this form I created to email back the filled out pdf. I've spent a couple of days searching like crazy trying to figure out how to fix this issue.
I created a fillable pdf form using LiveCycle ES2. I created the button to submit via email. In the submit to URL field I have: mailto:[email protected] The Submit As: PDF. ( we do not need a subject line) I saved the document, opened it up in Acrobat X Pro, went to File, Save As, Reader Extended PDF, Enable Additional Features, clicked Save to Enable Usage Rights for Reader. (that's what every other search has said to do)
So, I send the form via email attachment to a co-worker to test it out. We fill out the form, click the Submit button... and nothing happens... again. The prompt asking which email client to use pops up, but that's it. I'm not sure what else to do. Can someone help please?!?!?!?!?!?  

We'll need more information, such as OS, version of Acrobat/Reader is being used, what email client is being used, etc. Email is generally unreliable and not secure, adn whether is works seamlessly depends on whether the client machine is set up correctly.
Submitting to a web server is a more reliable approach that can be made secure relatively easily.

  • Converting ms publisher 2007 files to pdf in acrobat x pro

    I really could use help with my project.  I have a publisher 2007 file which I converted to pdf in Acrobat x pro.  The links won't work.  There are 4 links.  2 to external web sites and 2 are email links.  I tried setting the links in publisher then converting.  That didn't workl.  I tried removing the links then converting and adding the links in Acrobat.  They don't work either after I publish them to my web site.  Please tell me what I am doing wrong.
    Thanks.

    Could you post the link you mention? How did you create the PDF from Publisher -- there are several ways and some save the links and some don't. Also, some are MS methods and others are Adobe methods.

    Hello. I have adobe forms and received the alert that it will be ending in July. Then I received an email about Adobe Acrobat XI Pro which can create forms. I signed up for the free trial and when I began to make a new form it brings me back to Adobe Forms. My question is, when Adobe Forms ends on July 28th will Adobe Acrobat XI Pro be able to create forms or will it now? and if not, then why is adobe advertising for it still?

    What you're calling "Adobe Forms" is really Adobe FormsCentral. The FormsCentral service is indeed going away soon, but you can always create PDF forms (AcroForms) with Acrobat. Acrobat also comes with a desktop version of the FormsCentral desiger, which can be used to create simple PDF forms that can be used apart from the FormsCentral service. So you'll no longer be able to create and host web forms with the FormsCentral service or use PDF forms with the FormsCentral service. You will be able to create standalone PDF forms with Acrobat and simple PDF forms with the FormsCentral desktop app.

  • Can I edit anything in a pdf using Acrobat XI Pro?

    Can I edit anything in a pdf using Acrobat XI Pro?

    And the degree of effective editing may be an issue. Editing is not a recommended task in Acrobat, but instead edit in the original doc and recreate the PDF.

  • Reducing size of a PDF using Acrobat 9 Pro

    Hello, I want to reduce the file size of a large number of pdfs which will be available for download on a website I'm building. These pdfs were created a few years ago and in most cases the fonts were converted to outlines. I want to reduce the size of the pdfs using Acrobat 9 Pro. I tried one and the size went from 2.3 Mb down to 156 Kb when I saved as an Acrobat 7. Will these be able to be viewed by anyone using Acrobat Reader. The end users will only be viewing and reading the pdfs. Thanks in advance for any responses.

    If you are familar with the PDF Optimizer and how to go to it, open PDF Optimizer.
    First images for a website should never be more than 150dpi.
    Go to images and set, for DPI  150  for color images Grayscale and Monochrome.
    Next open fonts in optimizer and look for duplicate fonts.
    example:
    Ariel
    Ariel Bold
    Ariel Bold
    Ariel Italic
    Courier New Bold
    remove the duplicate Ariel Bold.
    Many times there are 5-10 instances or more of the same Font/Font style.
    Remove all duplicates.
    Save as a new file you never want to save over your original in case what you end up with doesn't turn out.

  • When I print to PDF using Acrobat 11 Pro from any application the acrobat Reader does not launch automatically. Associations are correct. Thx for your help,  Bruce

    When I print to PDF using Acrobat 11 Pro from any application the acrobat Reader does not launch automatically. Associations are correct. Happens from Chrome, IE, Word, Excel, Powerpoint. Previously had deskPDF installed but uninstalled correctly. Can't find a preference setting for the auto launch. Thx for your help,  Bruce

    A simple way is to flatten the form fields, which converts the field appearances to regular page contents. You can do this with JavaScript or PDF Optimizer (Advanced > PDF Optimizer > Discard Objects > Flatten form fields). A very nice script that adds a custom menu item can be found here: http://www.uvsar.com/projects/acrobat/flattener/

  • Emailing .pdf from Acrobat 9

    Hello
    I seem to be having an issue with emailing pdfs from acrobat. I am recieving an error "Acrobat is unable to connect to your email program" I am using Acrobat 9 running on a 2008r2 terminal server. The email program is Outlook 2010. All other users are able to attach a .pdf to email through adobe. Outlook is the default mapi client as i have read this is a common fix for this issue but it still does not work.

    Try clearing the profile preferences for Acrobat 9 and let them get recreate
    Repair both Acrobat and Outlook/Office
    BTW  I don't thing Windows Server 2008R2 was ever tested for Acrobat 9 on WTS.

  • Printing to PDF using Acrobat X Pro - Cannot figure it out!

    I do not have the option to print to pdf and cannot figure out how to perform this function.  Following the user guides there should be an option under file > Print > advanced > print to pdf
    However under the advanced options i do not have the option "print to pdf"
    Furthermore, if i scroll through my printer options this is also not available.
    Please help!

    I tied to print to pdf within Acrobat 10 Pro yesterday trying to solve a printing problem.  It seemed that the application would not print to pdf but required me instead to "save as" pdf to create another pdf copy.

  • Cannot convert webpages to pdf using Acrobat X Pro with IE9 and Windows 7, worked fine until a few m

    Cannot convert webpages to pdf using Acrobat X Pro with IE9 and Windows 7, worked fine until a few months and updates ago

    I tried your suggestion, not knowing that the direct pdf printer would also "save as" PDF, but when I try your suggestion and use the Adobe PDF printer that is a direct creation of the PDF from the browser (IE9), instead of the "black out" areas I get when I use the "Convert to" button, I get missing blocks of the resulting PDF, and only get the first 1/4 to 1/3 of the webpage.
    Just to clarify, when I said I print the webpage and then scan, that is a work around I have to do if I need a scanned version of the way a webpage appears on a particular date and time, instead of the one step process I used to be able to do when Adobe Acrobat would actually convert the webpage to a pdf without blackout areas or, if I try your suggestion, blank spots with a partial webpage. But the idea was one I had not thought of and I appreciated the thought.
    Yes, Acrobat was updated, and is updated, and was working fine until a few months ago, Win 7 and Office 32 bit versions, Office 2010

    Hi Rodney
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    This sounds like one of those "oddities", contributed to by a few sources.
    I can clear the Safari cache files as a temporary solution, but I encounter the same difficulties with the “problematic” files once they have been opened again.
    Wondering if you disabled the Safari Cache would the refresh function work correctly? As a test you can disable the Safari Cache by Emptying the Cache first via the Safari menu, then Quit Safari. Now go to the Finder>Your User Library>Caches>Safari. Single click on the Safari folder, then Apple Key + I to open Info panel. There, check the "locked" box. This prevents further additions to the cache. The downside, you lose your ability to upload images etc. within Safari (my cache is disabled, so I use Firefox for the uploads).
    Then restart Safari. Try the PDF from within Safari.

  • Text spacing goes crazy after editing a pdf in Acrobat 9 Pro Extended

    Recently upgraded to Acrobat 9 Pro Extended from 7.  I have old pdf documents that need minor editing.  When I edit text with Text Touchup tool, I get an error that font substitution taking place, usually  TimesNewRoman Postscript to just TimesNewRoman.  Once I save the pdf, text throughout the entire document is spaced randomly, i.e. "Doc    ument is n    o     t     fo   m    atted  correctly".  I do not have the original source documents to re-scan or recreate the PDF.  If I create a new document using 9, I embed my fonts or I get the same problem.  I can't do this with the hundreds of old documents I have.  Is there a fix? I have tried Adobe Tech support via email with no response.
    I am using Distiller to print to pdf.
    I am using Vista Home Premium (ugh!) but tried it on an XP system with same results.
    All my documents are text, and were OCR'd using Abbyy FineReader originally.

    Thanks for the input, but I don't have the originals in either hardcopy or OCR'd files.  My workaround is to re-OCR the pdf, make the changes I need and then save to PDF.  This makes a lot more work.  I am really trying to figure out what changed in 9 from 7 that causes this to happen.  I believe it is an issue with the fonts, was just hoping for a fix.
    The edits to these documents are minor, like removing some highlighting or taking away a few words of colored text, but they are necessary, just very unhappy that it now can take hours to do something it used to take minutes to do.

  • Error Message when Combining Files to PDF in Acrobat XI-Pro

    Hi!
    I am trying to combine multiple CAD files to PDF and keep encountering an error message.
    I'm using the Combine Files to PDF, dragging in the corresponding files (.DWG files) into Acrobat and then clicking the Combine button. They convert to PDF but a dialog box immediately pops up:
    As I'm the person creating the .pdf document and am using Acrobat XI-Pro to do so, what am I doing wrong to continue to receive this message?
    Thanks for the help!

    Hi TTownWriter,
    Try creating a combined file as follows :
    - Open one of the files .
    - Open thumbnail pane of the file via Left hand tools pane .
    - Go to options and Insert the second(or subsequent) files to the opened file using "Insert Pages" menu option.
    - Save the file.
    Refer the screenshot.
