Users custom stamps dissapear in Acrobat 7.0 Professional

Hello,
For some reason our users custom stamps are dissapearing in Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional when they close Acrobat, reopen it, and attemp to use the stamp(s) they had previously created. I am not sure if we can upgrade Acrobat because the users documents have to comply with some patch standard at http://www.uspto.gov/. Where would I need to look in order to find out what version/patches http://www.uspto.gov/ supports so I can troubleshoot the problem more effectively?
Thank you.

Yes, but i was hoping to be able to convert multiple files through acrobat rather than plot one at a time through autocad. thanks.

How do I migrate my custom stamps from XI to DC? Where is the "stamps" folder in DC?

I have several vital custom stamps made for Acrobat XI (and previous versions). When upgrading thfough former versions, all I had to do was save the stamp files to the spamps folder and restart. Now, there's no hint of a stamps folder and nothing in the help file to provide guidance. Not even info as to whether earlier stamps can be used at all.

Hey nils egilt10348323,
For Windows, you can simply go to "C:\Users\User Name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Acrobat\11.0\Stamps
Copy this folder and paste it to "C:\Users\User Name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Acrobat\DC\Stamps" to use the customized stamps in Acrobat DC as well.
If you are on MAC, then you can locate AppData folder under "Go > Libarary > User Name" and then perform the same steps.
Hope that helps.
Let me know if you need further assistance.
Regards,
Anubha

Our company has users on both Acrobat X and XI. We have custom stamps in X that the XI users need to use. How do we transfer the stamps to use in the newer version?

You just copy the stamp files from one machine and place them in the correct directory on the other. You can find the location of both the user and app stamp directories by running the following code in the interactive JavaScript console:
app.getPath("user", "stamps");
app.getPath("app", "stamps");
Select both lines and press Ctrl+Enter (Windows) or cmd+enter (Mac). Here's what I get with this using Acrobat 11 on a Mac:
user folder: /Macintosh HD/Users/georgejohnson/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Acrobat/11.0/Stamps/
app folder: /Macintosh HD/Applications/Adobe Acrobat XI Pro/Adobe Acrobat Pro.app/Contents/Built-in/Comments.acroplugin/Stamps/
The stamp files (PDFs) might have cryptic looking names, but you can safely open each to see what stamps they contain.

Adding Custom Stamps in Acrobat Reader X

I'm wondering how users of Acrobat Reader X can add their own custom stamps to documents. I create collateral for sales people across the U.S. who like to add their own contact information to the pieces. They were doing this by using the custom stamp feature that I enabled using Acrobat Pro 9. One of our sales folks decided to update his Acrobat to the newer version and it doesn't seem to have the same capabilities. I know there is a Signature tool, but that isn't quite the same. Can anyone help me figure this out? I'd appreciate it.
Thanks.

Custom Stamp displays correct in reader but fails in acrobat

Our company has a rather old work ticket form which our technicians have been filling out on their laptops for years. I believe it was originally created in lifecycle designer 6 but don't quote me on that. The issue is that when the form is opened in any version of Adobe Reader, it displays correctly and the letter head with the company name and address is properly displayed at the top of the page. However when you open the same document in acrobat you can see that someone used a custom stamp to redo our address on this form when we moved several years ago and the stamp does not display correctly.
Additionally if a user edits the file in anyway with acrobat and saves it the improperly displayed letterhead becomes permanent and also shows up when trying to view that file from adobe reader. Can anyone tell me whats going on and how to fix this issue?

That is a static XFA form and it appears as though something is wrong with the stamp. I recall someone reporting an issue with Acrobat 10 that can cause this sort of thing. I was able to open the file in Acrobat 9, delete the problematic stamp after unlocking it, and the correct one remained. If you're unable to do the same, I can send you the the file I fixed.

Sharing dynamic custom stamp to other users

In Acrobat pro 9 and earlier, I could share my stamps folder to other users and the dynamic custom stamps would travel and work just fine to new users. But not in ProX. Steps have been repeated from 9, The legacy folder was tried as a replacement, fresh dynamic stamps were built in Pro X. Nothing travels over. Help and guidance would be appreciated. Thanks in advance -doug.

Are you saving the stamp file in each user's stamp folder?

Will upgrading to Acrobat XI Pro preserve my custom stamps from Acrobat X Pro?

I'm in the middle of installing Acrobat XI Pro and it wants me to uninstall my existing Acrobat X Pro. I'm concerned that I might lose my custom stamps in the process.

I can't say for sure, but in any case you should make backups of the stamp files. If they aren't retained, you will be able to simply copy them over to the correct stamps folder for Acrobat 11.
To find the current stamp folder, open Acrobat, open the JavaScript console by pressing Ctrl+J, and enter the following line of code:
app.getPath("user", "stamps");
and with the cursor on that line, press Ctrl+Enter, or Enter on the numeric keypad (on Windows at least).
The path that is shown may include a hidden directory (e.g., "Application Data", but that is where you'll need to go to copy the stamp files from.
It possible the custom stamps are also in the location given by:
app.getPath("app", "stamps");
so check there too.

How do I flatten a custom stamp in Acrobat XI?

I use a custom stamp made from a scanned signature for signing documents. There was a simple flatten function in the Document menu of Acrobat X that quickly merge the signature into the document. I do see such a function in Acrobat XI. I use Windows 7. Any suggestions?

By the way, that blog post above doesn't make it clear that this folder isn't created by default when you install Acrobat, so if it's not present, you have to create the ..\Acrobat\Privileged\11.0\JavaScripts folder manually and place the script file there.

Custom Stamps in Acrobat Reader

I am in an office whereby I am the only person with the full version of Adobe Acrobat. Everyone else only has Acrobat Reader.
I've created many a custom stamp for myself to use and I find them very handy, however, I'd like to be able to create custom stamps for people to use and apply in pdfs they are viewing with just the Reader. Does anyone know if this is possible?
Thanks,

Deployment of Acrobat 9 with custom stamps

Hi,
I would like to deploy Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard using the Customization Wizard which appears straight forward however I would like to know if there is anyway to deploy custom stamps as we have over 50 and is a major time consumption to deploy manually. Is there anyway to deploy this using Customization Wizrd or any other automated method?
Thanks in advance.

Custom Stamp no longer worker in Acrobat X

I created a custom stamp using Adobe X; not sure it was working the way it was suppose to but it still met my needs.
I used a PDF form which I created using Word, added some form fields and saved it.
Added the PDF form file as a custom stamp.
Opened another PDF document and was able to insert the custom stamp.....and this is where I don't know if it really worked correctly or not. The stamp was basically an image, none of the fields were accessible; I thought a PDF form would act like a dynamic stamp but it didn't work as I expected.
But if I opened the original PDF of the stamp and filled in the form fields & saved it and then inserted the custom stamp again, all the fields were updated/filled in.
But then for some reason my custom stamp disappeared from stamp pull down menu. And now when I try to add it back it creates an anonymous PDF file with the current form fields filled in. If I open the original PDF stamp and change any of the form fields and save it, the custom stamp doesn't update when I go and insert it again.
And if I delete that anonymous PDF file, my custom stamp again disappears from the stamp pull down menu.
This now happens with any PDF file I use to create a custom stamp; Acrobat X creates an anonymous PDF file.
If anyone has any idea how to fix this problem, it would be greatly appreciated.

Behavior for PDFs is not handled by SharePoint, but rather Adobe Acrobat. Validate Adobe Acrobat's PDF browser extension has been disabled (you can do this via IE and I believe Adobe Acrobat has this option within it's own Preferences).

Custom Stamp Name Display in Acrobat X?

Our organization relies heavily on the usage of the Stamp tool, we have over 100 custom stamps created which enables us to be a paperless environment. Here's the problem, in the new Acrobat X, Adobe removed the "names" of the custom stamps in the drop down. So now you only see the stamp instead of the name. We have some very large stamps, and some that are very similar but are used in completely different cases. Does anyone know if it is possible to show the names of the custom stamps in Acrobat X? This is such a huge deal to us, we won't be able to use any new versions of Acrobat unless this is possible!

Acrobat does not, or at least it didn't, execute doc level scripts in a
stamp file. So something else is needed.
SeattleUser, I the stampName needs to be specified at all, since the script
doesn't need to work for a specific stamp, but rather all stamps when not
being placed. How about this code?
event.target.hidden = event.source.forReal;
