Submitting a form using Adobes built in submit button

Hello All,
I have created a form in Acrobat XI Pro and use the built in distribute wizard
Adobe opens up and asks for the email to send the forms to.
This works fine.
When the user fills the form and press the Adobe submit button, (not the one you add to a form) how can I indicate to the user the button was pressed!
Thanks

Is there any way after pressing the submit button i can set a flag or message?

Submitting pdf form using Adobe Reader

Using Acrobat 9 Pro I created a form to capture personal info from donors to our non-profit. When displayed in Acrobat 9 the SUBMIT button works as intended (brings up a message to send using my Email client with the pdf attached and addressed to the Email I have entered in the URL block.) Using the SUBMIT button while in Reader 9 on another PC I receive the error message that "this operation is not permitted". My preferred solution would be to enable Reader to do the same as Acrobat 9. I understand that Reader cannot save a form. Since I am only collecting at most 9 small fields I could live with just getting the data from the forms. Since the donors may have various versions of Reader, I need a solution that does not require the latest versions of Reader (8 or 9) to do these actions.

For your application, e-mail is probably a bad idea. However, if you insist you should have the form submit a FDF or XML data file, not the PDF. You can open the FDF and XML files in the original form to see the data if you desired. The data file submission is not limited to the 500 use limit of the form. Due to the nature of the material, I would think it is much safer to submit the data to a web server and not through e-mail that is typically not very secure.
A last note it that e-mail submission requires the client machine to be using MAPI. If not, they will get an error and you will be blamed. Submitting to a web script avoids this issue.

Read Only HTML Forms using adobe livecycle Output ES

Hi,
We have a requirement to display the adobe html forms in read-only format. got to know from adobe consultants that Adobe Livecycle Output ES has this feature. but i am not able to find out any services or components that would give me this functionality.
Is there a way to get these readonly forms using Adobe Livecycle Output ES.

Dear Dfoto,
Thank you so much for being so kind to spend the effort and reply back, I though my question was left behind the sun... but now I am very happy in deed.
To be more specific, the Form has 2 parts. The first part "Subform1" any one can fill and sign.
The second part "Subform2", only certain users can fill and sign.
I think I found a very strong lead to my solution, when I was playing with LiveCycle Desinger few days ago.
On the Singature Field Advanced Setting, there is a place you can attach the public part of a certificate (Digital Signature) of any user, one or more.
In this part, you tell LC that only those users "signing parties" can sign the field. I tested it and it worked.
Now, if I can use this feature via JavaScript to find out if the user who is filling the form, can sign this field, then he can fill the form. If he cannot sign the field, then he cannot fill the form. I can do that by setting the "access" property of the Subform. Another solution is that I can prevent the user from hitting the "Submit" button unless he signes the designated Signature Field.
I have another small issue:
I found out that if the Signature field is part of a repeating dynamic Subform, it will not work during run-time. Very bad in deed. While I cannot understand why ?, I tool this as "By Desing" feature.
Now, if the Signature is locking parts of forms which has dynamic content (repeating subforms), it will always show somthing like "Signature is corrupted or form was changed after it was signed".
Is this normal ? Is there a way to control Dynamic Forms using Digital Signatures without such annoying issues ?
Thank you.

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 have developed a fillable form using Adobe Acrobat Pro. The form has several fields and some of the information is captured in a bar code. What programs must be used to open the form to properly fill the form out? Adobe Reader, Adobe Xi, Ibook, etc.. I

I have created a fillable form using Adobe Acrobat Pro that contains several data fields with some feeding data to a barcode in the document. I have a "button" set up to save and send the completed form one it is completed. Some of the user are having troubles filling out the form as they are using various programs to do such as iBook, Adobe Reader, etc.... Sometimes the information is not transferred to the barcode and sometimes the "submittal button" doesn't function properly.
Please provide a solution or give me a list of the programs that must be used to properly open and fill out the form.
Greatly appreciated.

Best option is to use Adobe Reader (or Acrobat, of course) on a desktop computer (ie, not on a mobile device). Any other configuration is likely to be problematic.

When printing form using Adobe Acrobat X, I get squares over my italic text

Hi,
I have created an Adobe Form using Adobe Acrobat XI Pro and just printed it to check whether this works and the following occured:
- When printing my 14 page document using adobe reader everything looked great
- When printing my 14 page document using adobe prof X (not XI !) the italic text had some (non filled, seethrough) squares throughout it. The squares are not constant (5-15 squares per sentence) and I cannot recognize a pattern. However, they appear each time I print the entire document.
- When printing only one page of the document (that has italic text on it) it prints fine with either the free adobe reader or adobe pro X.
Font is Verdana,Italic. Size is 8,27 pt. Data is sometimes embedded (I did not use this feature and have no idea what is means). I always use Windows. Right now windows 7 to be exact.
One more thing: as you can see above the file was created using adobe XI. However, my company uses adobe pro X and therefore the document had to be printable using adobe pro X.
Can someone please help me? I have put a lot of time in the design of this form and not being able to print it correctly is a real dealbreaker for using it which would mean my efforts were wasted.
I added an example to clearify:
Best,
Linda

This is all I can find in KB:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/877/cpsid_87775.html#main_Known_issues_on_Windows_
I downloaded MS hotfix and the issue still persists.
We have to identify if this is an adobe issue or a microsoft issue.

I've created a PDF form using Adobe acrobat. I created the forms from a PDF that I made using pages

I've created a PDF form using Adobe acrobat. I created the forms from a PDF that I made using pages and word on Mac running Mountain lion. How do I allow the user of the form to insert JPEG files when filling out the form and how do I allow the user to add more fields or groups of fields as needed.

The type of form yo're describing is possible if you create it in LiveCycle Designer. It may also be possible in Acrobat, but there are certain restrictions. The type of form is known as a dynamic XFA form. LiveCycle Designer is not available on the Mac, so you'd have to install the software on a Windows machine and learn how to create this type of form. The LiveCycle Designer forum here is a good resource for getting more help.
Reader 11 now supports creating new pages using templates with a form that you create in Acrobat (Acroform). This requires some JavaScript programming. It also adds support for using a button to display a page from a PDF, which can be an image or anything else a PDF can be. So the user would click a button, be prompted to import a page from an existing PDF, and the button (or a different button) displays it as its icon. This would require the user to convert the image to PDF first, which is relatively easy these days (e.g., using Preview on the Mac, or Word on Mac/Windows). This too involves a bit of JavaScript programming, but it's very simple and straightforward.

Cannot complete form using Adobe Reader - Mac OS X 10.6.8

I have been using Adobe Reader to complete forms for my Bank for more than 9 months without any problems. I'm using Adobe Reader 10.1.1 for Mac. I recently upgraded my OS from 10.5.8 to 10.6.8 and this is the first time I've tried to use Adobe Reader since the upgrade. Today when I opened my form using Adobe Reader I cannot select and type in any of the text fields. Trying to click inside a text box simply seems to 'select' the entire page.
I checked online but could not find any compatibility issues. I'm hoping that I've overlooked something very simple that I should have done but have no idea what that could be.
I would be very grateful if someone could advise me what my problem might be.
Cheers
Tricia

Thanks for responding Ankit. No, I saved the form to a folder on my desktop and I open it using the Adobe Reader app. It has always worked without a problem before. I checked my husband's iMac (which has the same saved form on his Desktop). He is also running OS X 10.6.8. On his machine it opened without a hitch so I used his computer to fill in the form and print it out. Obviously, if it works on his computer and he's also using 10.6.8 it's not related to the upgrade.
I trashed my copy of Adobe Reader and have re-downloaded the app. Will install it and see whether it now works or if the problem persists. Will post back the results.'

Hi Vasu,
Yes you can add fonts on ADS.
Adobe document services require access to fonts that are installed with the Font Manager Module. This module contains a number of Adobe bundled fonts installed in
"/usr/sap/<SAPSID>/JC<xx>/j2ee/os_libs/adssap/FontManagerService/fonts/adobe".
You can also add fonts obtained from other vendors. The types of fonts you can add are OpenType® (.otf), TrueType® (.ttf), and PostScript® Type 1 (.pfb/.pfm).
Procedure
To add fonts:
1. Create a subdirectory called fonts below the
"/usr/sap/<SAPSID>/SYS/global/AdobeDocumentServices/ FontManagerService" directory.
Enter JC<xx> if your system is a SAP Web AS J2EE system.
Enter DVEBMGS<xx> if your system is a SAP Web AS ABAP + J2EE system (J2EE Add-In).
2. Create a subdirectory called customer below the fonts/ directory created in the previous step.
3. Copy your fonts into the "/usrsap/<SAPSID>/SYS/global/AdobeDocumentServices/ FontManagerService/fonts/customer" directory.
4. Restart the Document Services Font Manager for the changes to take effect.
5. Also restart the application com.adobe/AdobeDocumentServices for the changes to take effect.

Could you answer the question about what you see while debug the javascript code.

Problems Submitting PDF Forms via Adobe Reader XI?

Hi,
I have used Acrobat Pro (Versions 9/X and XI) to successfully create fillable PDF forms. I distributed the forms to a server via Acrobat, then set up a hyperlink to the form's location for my users. The users were able to fill the form and submit it. I was able to manage the submitted form data via Adobe Tracker. Recently, many of my users have been updated to Acrobat Reader XI. Now, some of these same users (who have successfully submitted these forms in the past - before the latest upgrade) can no longer submit the form data! If a user fills the form and clicks submit, it appears to that user that the form was successfully submitted, but no data appears in Adobe Tracker, even after refreshing... What would cause this??
Thank you!

What is your operating system? What is your Reader XI version? What exactly means "cannot"?

How to delete checkbox in pdf form using adobe acrobat professional 6.

I am trying to modify a pdf form having a single layer. There are some checkboxes which i want to delete. I am using Adobe acrobat 6 professional. USing Advanced Editing tools -> Touchup Object Tool , i have try to delete the checkbox, it deletes all fields and tables in the form and there is only text left on the form. Any help would be appreciated. . Thanks@

You do not use the "Object Tool" to edit forms. There should be a "Form" menu option and under this option you will have the opton "Edit form in Acrobat". This is the way one should edit/create a form in Acrobat.
