" This PDF document contains forms. The filling of form fields is not supported" -help?

I need to fill in & submit online forms but I keep getting the above message. I realise I can view and fill in the forms in an adobe window, but I need to do this online, and it is a secure website with the form imbedded. Is there any way I can have the "filling of form fields" supported so I can do this, please?

To switch from the less full featured built-in viewer to Adobe's Acrobat plugin, see the steps in this article: [[How to disable the built-in PDF viewer and use another viewer]].
Can you get it working?

  • This PDF document contains forms. The filling of forms is not supported.

    I get this message when I attempt to open a password protected document. "This PDF document contains forms. The filling of forms is not supported." It won't even let me enter the password.  What do I do?

    Hi stephenh20710301,
    Could you please let me know if you are using the latest version of Reader i.e 11.0.10
    Ask the PDF creator or if you are the creator, open the PDF in Acrobat XI (latest version) and choose "File> Save as Other> Reader Extended PDF> Enable more Tools"
    Let me know if this helps.
    Regards,

  • Error message: "This PDF document contains forms. The filling of form fields is not supported."

    Hello, I am running with this operating system: Microsoft windows XP Professional version 2002 service pack 3
    Just downloaded the newest version of Adobe reader
    Using an updated version of Firefox.
    There is an online form that I must fill out in adobe reader online...  I could download it, but then I would have to FAX or mail it in, as apposed to directly sending it to the organization it is from via a "SUBMIT" button at the end of the form...  I do not have a printer.
    Thank you for any help you can give.

    Do you use the Firefox PDF viewer, or the Adobe PDF plugin?  The Firefox PDF viewer is incompatible with many modern PDF features.

  • Print Problem - PDF is OK on Windows 7, but OK on Windows XP with "Acrobat Reader An error exists on this page. Acrobat may not display the page correctly. Please contact the person who created the PDF document to correct the problem."

    I have received a PDF which prints fine in Windows 7 but with Windows XP I get "Acrobat Reader An error exists on this page. Acrobat may not display the page correctly. Please contact the person who created the PDF document to correct the problem." and a blank piece of paper passes through the printer. I appreciate that Windows XP is no longer supported but I would like to think that the solution to this problem is not too difficult!
    I have tried Acrobat 9, 10 and 11.
    Any advice (apart from use Windows 7! ) would be most welcome.
    Many thanks.

    If you use the same Adobe Reader versions with the same PDF on Windows 7 and XP, then I would expect the outcome to be the same.
    Is this a local or online PDF?
    If local, is the file really exactly the same?
    If online, in what browser?

  • None of the commnets or other type of annotations on this page are contained in the structure tree, getting this error on full check of adobe acrobat PDF

    none of the commnets or other type of annotations on this page are contained in the structure tree, getting this error on full check of adobe acrobat PDF

    You can find and tag the unmarked annotations using the Tags pane - click the down arrow next to
    the Options icon (near the top left of the pane), then Find > Unmarked Annotations. You will be given the option to tag the annotations - usually they are hyperlinks in which case use the link tag. Then you will need to create the proper tag stucture. Lots of information about that via google, for example the Adobe Acrobat X Professional: PDF Accessibility (Section 508 Tagging) Reference Guide (http://webtools.ca.gov/files/2010/07/acrobat_X_tagging-manual.docx)

  • How can I disable the "this PDF document might not be displayed correctly" notification?

    Almost all PDF files produce the "this PDF document might not be displayed correctly" message when viewed with the built-in PDF viewer.
    This message does not convey useful information. It appears on almost all PDF files (even though they usually work correctly after all); it sometimes fails to appear even on files that don't work (so it does not accurately predict whether a given file will work); when a file doesn't work, there is no way to make it work short of using an external viewer (so the error I'm being warned about is not something I can fix); and it demands a user action to dismiss it EVERY TIME it appears (so it places a disproportionate demand on my attention). How can I disable it?
    Please note that I am not looking for instructions on how to disable the built-in PDF viewer. I just want to turn off the warning message.

    The only way to stop this message is to disable the built-in PDF Viewer and use another viewer.<br />
    On Linux you only have an older version of the Adobe Reader available, so you may have to open the PDF files in an external viewer like evince.
    You can set the pdfjs.disabled pref to true on the <b>about:config</b> page to disable the build-in PDF viewer.
    You can check the value of the plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types pref on the about:config page and remove the application/pdf part if present or reset the pref to the default via the right-click context menu if you want to display PDF documents in Firefox with another application (i.e. not the built-in PDF Viewer).

  • Exporting or saving the filled-out form to a specified location.

    Hi,
    I have created a pdf form using Acrobat X Standard. Currently, the way I have designed it is- the filled out form is attached to the email when the user clicks submit button. I am using some java code that I found through this forum. I do not know much about java.
    I want to change this. In addition to emailing the completed form, I would like the form to automatically get saved  to a pre-defined location when the user cliks submit button. Is there anyway I can do that. The problem I  see in this is the file name. How would that be handled?
    May be I am asking something impossible. But your thoughts would be appreciated.
    thanks,
    s.p

    The basic method you'd use is the doc.saveAs method: page: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.524.html
    Here is a good tutorial on how to use it: http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/how-save-pdf-acrobat-javascript
    It doesn't mention though that it can be used in a certified document, in which case the trusted function stuff isn't necessary.

  • The filling of form fields is not supported

    I created a fillable pdf with the 30 day trial and am trying to load onto our Wordpress website. I am receiving this message when I attempt to open the file and test, "This pdf contains fields. The filling of form fields is not supported." Help.

    Your PDF is in web space. That means that to access it you have to use a browser. Today many browsers have a built-in PDF reader that is, well, less than adequate.
    Some resources that may help.

  • How do I received the filled out form via email? After the user hits SUBMIT, I'd like to receive the filled out form via email.

    How do I received the filled out form via email? After the user hits SUBMIT, I'd like to receive the filled out form via email.

    Formscentral doesn't support direct delivery of filled forms via email at this time. You can however use Acrobat to add an email link to a form instead of a submit button. In this way the PDF will be returned to the email of your choice.

    Hi Erika1987,
    If you have not saved the document and Acrobat closed then it's not possible to retrieve the lost data on the pdf file.

    I am using Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard version in Windows 8.1 and when I try to create a .pdf file, I receive the following error message "Acrobat could not open "file name.log" because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged.  To create a PDF document, go to the source application then print the document to .pdf"  I am going to the source application and printing the document to .pdf yet it's saving the file as a .log file.  After reinstalling the software, I initially didn't encounter this problem but on my second and third attempts to convert files to .pdf format, this error message reappeared.  How do I resolve this problem?

    I have a similar problem which i did not have before...and it exists only in some powerpoint files which i want to print as a pdf file...and i get the same message as above.

  • The feature: "Report part gallery" is not supported in this edition of Reporting Services.

    Struggling trying to get off the ground on same basic reporting functionality - I have a report that basically just dumps out the contents of a table for now.  When I attempt to publish the report, I get "The feature: "Report part gallery"
    is not supported in this edition of Reporting Services." for both the single param I am trying to define for the report and the Tablix report part.  What
    can I do with this version of Reporting Services?  Ultimately, I need to create a few very simple reports and then be able to display them in a UI developed in Visual Studio 2013 via a Web Form.  It seems that Visual Studio 2013 does not
    offer a report viewer so that is another issue entirely (hoping the one for 2011 will work).  I am just trying to design and publish a few simple reports right now and can't even get past that right now.

    Hello,
    What's the version and edition of SSRS did you used?
    Report Part Gallery is only available in Standard Edition and above. If you using SSRS express edition, you can try to create a subreport which ccontain the Tablix report part content, and then add the subreport in other reports to meet the similar requirement.
    You can refer to the following blog about compare Subreport with Report Part.
    http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/2314/ssrs-report-parts-versus-sub-reports-faq/
    As for display SSRS report in Visual Studio, you can using the ReportViewer controls in Visual Studio.
