Use Adobe Reader to send Interactive Forms

Hello,
Can someone please help me how to use Adobe Reader to send interactive forms back to their respective owner?
This is by either the submit button or the submit by email button.
I can change the coding as I have Livecycle ES
Look forward to getting some help on this matter
Cheers

Use Adobe Reader to Save Form Data

I use Acrobat 8 Professional to create several forms and enabled usage rights in Adobe Reader so that my users can save the form data locally using Adobe Reader 7 or higher. My questions are: (1.)Is there a limit to saving the form data? For example, the form can only be save 500 times per form or is it unlimited. (2.)If there is a limit to saving the form like 500 times, can the same form be recreated and the limit of 500 starts all over again? (3.)Do I need to purchase a license to save these form data? (4.)How many forms can have enable usage rights in Adobe Reader per Adobe Acrobat professional? The reason why i'm asking these questions is because I want to be in compliance with the Adobe license. My users don't have Adobe Acrobat Professional, but would like to use Adobe Reader to save the form data.

>(1.)Is there a limit to saving the form data?
It is my understanding that you can harvest data from a form 500 times whether that be from one user of 500 users.
>(2.)If there is a limit to saving the form like 500 times, can the same form be recreated and the limit of 500 starts all over again
You'd probably be walking on thin ice by trying that. Could be a loophole but maybe not.
>(3.)Do I need to purchase a license to save these form data?
Not if you stay within the limit that is stated in the EULA.
>(4.)How many forms can have enable usage rights in Adobe Reader per Adobe Acrobat professional?
Different forms? As far as I know there is no limit to the amount of different forms you use.
In my opinion, if you think you are going to go anywhere near the limitations of the EULA, consult with your attorney before proceeding. The form enabling function was never intended for large business use. Adobe has another, more costly, solution for that.

How can I use Adobe Reader?

How can I use Adobe Reader to open Naturalization Form 400? Will it open automatically or should I first open Adobe Reader and then a form?

Adobe acrobat x pro - interactive forms allow reader to save

Hi there,
I have created interactive forms using adobe acrobat x pro and I need to save these forms on a shared drive and allow 100 odd users to be able to edit and save the information using adobe reader.
Can anyone help me?
How do I allow a user using reader to save a filled in copy of the document?

Thanks

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.

Why do prepopulated forms not open up correctly to be read and printed using Adobe Reader?

We are creating forms that we send to clients. Generally the clients are using Adobe Reader to open the pdf's. Why can they not see prepopulated data on the forms. They need to click the area where the data is to see it. When they attempt to print it, it comes out blank.

Hi,
Did you use Acrobat to create the prepopulated forms? If you did, please submit your question to Acrobat forum. The team there can help you.
Thanks,

I am filling out a form that requires me to put a passport photo using Adobe Reader.

I am filling out a form that requires me to put a passport photo using Adobe Reader.
However, when I click on the square to insert the photo, a screen pops up telling me to "select a PDF file and import it as an image" and just an "OK" button to press.
When running the debugger, I get NotAllowedError: Security settings prevent access to this property or method. Field.buttonImportIcon:6:Field Click here to add a photo:Mouse Up. Any way around it? Below is the problem I'm talking about.

Thanks for your reply.
I've converted photos into pdf format and it still won't allow me to insert the photo. I wouldn't know whether it'd be too large or small since I cannot insert it in the first place.
"Warning: Javascript Windows: Select the PDF file to import this button as an image" is the message that keeps appearing. I can't seem to find anything related to this.

Fillable forms with radio buttons (Using Adobe Reader X)

I have two questions: First question, I have a fillable form with "yes" and "no" radio buttons. Currently the radio defaults to answer "yes", but I would like both the "yes" and "no" fields to be empty, which would allow the user to select an answer on his or her own. Second question, is there a way to make an answer required before moving on to the next question?
(Using Adobe Reader X)
Message was edited by: mp2athome

You need to check and make sure that the options for each radio button do not have the "Button is checked by default" selected.
You can make all the following answer radio buttons "read only" and only after one of the choices for the preceding question has been answered are the radio buttons for the next question are write enabled.
You will need Acrobat to create the form.

Adobe PDF Form (submission by email) - ok on desktop, but using Adobe Reader on iPhone cannot 'submit'

I recently created an Adobe form (Adobe XI Pro) with a 'submit' button - submission by email (not using Forms Central). The form works well on desktop (Outlook 2010), but when I open the same PDF on mobile (Adobe Reader installed), the 'submit' function is a dud - does nothing. Any ideas for a fix? Thanks.

If your user is using Adobe Reader and wants to add an attachment to your PDF file... you need Adobe LiveCycle Designer Reader Extensions to do that...
If your user is using Adobe Acrobat Pro then u can add attachments with this
var myDoc = event.target;
var sFile = "myFile" + NumericField1.rawValue;
myDoc.importDataObject({cName: sFile});
var myDataObject = myDoc.getDataObject(sFile);
var sFileName = myDataObject.path;
ListBox1.addItem(sFileName,sFile);
NumericField1.rawValue = NumericField1.rawValue + 1;
you can also remove the file
myDoc.removeDataObject(sFile);
you can also open the file
myDoc.exportDataObject({ cName: sFile, nLaunch: 2 });

I am using Adobe Reader X on a laptop with Windows Vista OS and Adobe Reader XI on an older laptop with Windows XP OS. While filling out the same form on each computer, I have found that I can save info on the older laptop, but not on the newer one. This is a big problem. I must be able to save on the newer computer. Do I need to buy a new computer with a more up-to-date OS? Please help.

Adobe Reader X can only save reader-enabled forms. Adobe Reader XI can save all forms.

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 kevinv1987,
It doesn't sound like the PDF was password protected (or Adobe Reader would prompt you for a password). Instead, it sounds like that file may be marked locked by your operating system. Are you on Mac OS or Windows? In either case, here are instructions for removing the lock icon from the file:
Remove the Lock Icon from a Folder in Windows 7 (check Microsoft's website if you have a different version of Windows)
On Mac OS, select the file in the Finder, and choose File > Get Info. Then, just deselect the Lock checkbox.
Please let us know how it goes.
Best,
Sara
