What do I need to fill out and print a PDF form?

I need to type on this form save and print it, how do I do that?

Hi nette7,
To fill in, save, and print your form, you can use the free Adobe Reader. You can download the free Reader from here: PDF reader, PDF viewer | Adobe Reader XI.
Of course, if you have a full version of Acrobat, you can use that as well. But Reader will definitely give you the tools you need to get the job done.
Best,
Sara

What do I need to fill out a form created in JetForm?

I receive a form that I need to fill out, save and send back. The problem is the form sent to me is a JetForm. What software/designer do I need to just fill out these forms? Are there any free downloads?
Thank you

Since Adobe acquired Accelio, formerly JetForms, in April of 2002, I am surprised the form has not been revised using Adobe's LiveCycle Designer.
If the form has a file type of PDF then form could be filled out and printed by Adobe Reader. If you need to save the form, the author would have had to apply Extended Form Rights with a more current version of Acrobat.

Please Help--Can't fill out or submit/save .PDF forms

Hi-
Running Safari 5.1.2 on Mac OS 10.6.8 (the latest updates according to software update) and using the Schubert PDF browser plugin. http://www.schubert-it.com/pluginpdf/
Before updating from Safari 5.0.xxxx I could fill out and submit .PDF forms in Safari without any issues. Now, I cannot. The form comes up but I cannot enter any text into the text fields.
About a month ago I went through this and had to revert back from a time machine back up because the ability to fill out forms in browser is an everyday necessity for me.
Does anyone know how to fix this issue?? Please help...

Ok.. I still cannot get this figured out. I'm baffled and frustrated!!
I did a deep cache cleaning using Snow Leopard Cash Cleaner, all of your reccomendations, and about an hours worth of reading. I had the schubert-it plug in uninstalled and have gone back to reinstalling it with no luck. I was thinking after all the cache cleaning it might work. Nope..
I can't beleive this is an issue after an update.. Apple is normally so great with this stuff.
The com.adobe.reader folder does not exist on my computer.
This problem occurs with any online form, not just the ones I need to access and submit, and it occurs with the native PDF support in Safari as well as the schubert app.
Any other ideas? I read on one post where someone fixed it with quicktime, but the video he put up to show how he fixed it was no longer available.
Carolyn, or anyone else, .. any ideas??

How to fill out and submit a web form using LabVIEW

Almighty Forum,
This question will require knowledge not only of LabVIEW, but also of HTML, JavaScripting, and possibly more. I don't know about you, but I have an on-line account for pretty much everything: Bank, Credit Card, Savings, ETrade, 401K, Roth IRA, etc. About once a day I want to go and check on everything (because I'm an anal engineer), but it takes so freaking long to navigate and login to each site. Even after favoriting all the links and using cookies to save my "username", I still have to type in my password, hit enter, and wait for each site. This takes time, time is money, and money is why I'm doing this in the first place; so, I need a better solution. And since I stand by LabVIEW, I want a LabVIEW solution.
The solution in my head is something like this. I have one front panel with an embedded IE browser (in an ActiveX container). On the side of the browser I have my "favorite" toolbar. When I click on a button in the toolbar, it takes me to the site and automatically logs me in. Simple. Now once that is working I could make a single app with no browser interface that simply went out and queried all my sites for the important values and displayed them on the front panel. But not to get ahead of myself, I'll stick with my first goal for now. Baby steps.
So here is what I have now. I can load www.bankofamerica.com into my browser and automatically enter my "online ID" and "passcode". I just can't seem to figure out how to submit the form. I realize that I could just simulate a mouse click on the coordinates of the Sign In button, but that would not be nearly elegant enough for me to have pride in this application.
If you run the VI that I'm posting, and click Submit Info, you are taken to a error page saying something along the lines of "We're temporarily unable to process this request. Please try again." Now this would probably make sense with the "dummy" ID and passcode that is being used in this VI, but I get the same thing when I use my real information. I'm beginning to think that this is something BOA has done to prevent people from logging in programmatically. That would probably make sense to deter potential hackers.
There's got to be a way... can you help? This might take some time, but think how it could help streamline you in the long-run
PS: I down-converted the VI to 7.0 format for anybody stuck in 2003
Thanks,

Bank of America Login - test.vi ‏179 KB

Simply stated, you want to hit some button on your app and instantly see all your accounts no matter where from, is that correct?
Hi Otman,
Actually, my first goal is to be able to hit a single button that automatically logs into a single account. For example, when Bank of America Login - test.vi (attached above) is run, it should automatically:
1) Navigate to www.bankofamerica.com
2) Programmatically enter the "Online ID" and "Passcode"
3) Submit the form and log in
Its step 3 that I'm having trouble with. Again, see the VI attached to my first post for a good example of what I'm talking about.
Thanks,

Is there a way to create a PDF form that ANYONE can fill out and SAVE with their content?

Is there a way to create a PDF form that ANYONE can fill out and SAVE with their content? By anyone, I mean someone who can download and use the free Adobe Reader, on either a Mac or PC. I have Acrobat Pro, and would like to be able to create forms that can not only be filled out and printed, but saved and emailed, which is not an option with the forms I have created to date. They can be filled out, but not saved, with Adobe Reader.
TIA,
Nancy

To do what Dave indicated you need to do, it depends on what version of Acrobat you have:
Acrobat 8: Advanced > Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader
Acrobat 9: Advanced > Extend Features in Adobe Reader
Acrobat 10: File > Save As > Reader Extended PDF > Enable Additional Features
Acrobat 11: File > Save as Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools (includes form fill-in & save)
I wonder what it will be next time?

FORM CANNOT BE FILLED-OUT AND SAVED?

I want the user to fill-out and be able to save to their computer, without saving over my original. It works fine if the user has acrobat standard 8,but if they don't or only have Adobe Reader, the form cannot be filled out and saved. Only a blank copy can be saved or the form filled-out and printed. Please help if you have a solution. Thanks.

Templates designed in LC accept data input from the users however users need to open these templates in Adobe Acrobat. Users can also use Adobe Reader however as designer you need to enable certain user rights for them to fill the forms like they do in Acrobat. For that you need use Adobe ReaderExtensions server this could be little expensive if you are just doing few forms. This server software is licensed based on number of uses or for unlimited uses. If you can not afford both there are few servers available over net to enable those user rights for a fee. You may Google them. You may check the following http://www.unrestrictpdf.com/get-license.html

In Acrobat Pro XI, can I limit the form I created to "fill in and print," with no saving or signing?

I created a fillable form from a word doc using Acrobat Pro XI.
When I look at the form in Acrobat Pro, I see the following at the top of the form:
If I look at the form on a computer running just Adobe Reader, this is what displays at the top:
I just want users to fill out and print this form. The instruction that Adobe Reader is giving is confusing. Can I modify those instructions, or change the file properties of my form somehow to limit to "fill out and print?"
I don't recall encountering this before in earlier versions of Acrobat.

Finally figured it out -- if I view the form directly in Adobe Reader (over our network), I see the confusing message about "Click 'Sign' to fill out..."
BUT, if I open the form within a web browser (IE, Firefox, etc.), I see the usual message: "Please fill out the following form. You cannot save data typed into this form. Please print..."
It is doing what I expected; I just wasn't viewing it in the usual manner. Users will be seeing this form via a web browser, so problem solved.

How Do I Add A PDF That Can Be Filled Out And Submitted To My Email

I just finished converting an application to PDF using the forms wizard. This works really well as it makes it so they can only fill in the required information and not alter any of the other form. Right now I just have it posted as a downloadable file that they can save fill out and email back in. However what I'm wanting to do is have it where they can just open the PDF in another tab, fill it out and hit submit and have that automatically sent to my email account. What I've done is use:
<a href="digital_application.pdf">Click To View</a>
This in essence will open the application in another tab of the browser where they can fill everything out. However thus far their only option is either a "Print" or "Save" button. I'd like to add a "Submit" button somehow to where it's emailed to an account I've set up, or have it save to a file on the server. I don't know if this is something I have to code into the site, or If I can make a button on the PDF itself, or there's an option to make the PDF display a "Submit" button, just need a little help. Thanks!

You use the 'submit' method to submit the PDF's FDF to web based script page and have that page perform the email function.

I purchased Adobe Creative Suite 3 Master Collection Design Across Media Upgrade for Windows at a business closing. What do I need to find out before I can use it?

I purchased Adobe Creative Suite 3 Master Collection Design Across Media Upgrade for Windows at a business closing. What do I need to find out before I can use it?

I couldn't tell you what you purchased, and it might even be difficult for an Adobe employee to do so. The business could have a few options as far as what they might have purchased.
Your best bet, considering what little you paid, will be to hand it over to someone you might sell it to and let them try it out. If it works, then it works.

What is the difference between Video-out and mirroring?

What is the difference between Video-out and mirroring? I can't get iPhone 4 video to work on my TV screen
I have just bought an MD098ZM/A (Apple 30-pin Digital AV Adapter). I am struggling to get it to show a picture on my TV. I know I'm doing something right because the audio is coming out of my TV speakers but no picture on the TV screen.
I have used the same HDMI channel (on the TV side) with the same cable and my thunderbolt port (MacBook Air) without any trouble - and on the same app (BBC iPlayer download then full-screen mode).
Now I note that the packaging for the MD098ZM/A says video-out on iPhone 4 but mirroring only on iPhone 4S. I only have an iPhone 4 (not the 4S). Now if the lack of iPhone 4 support for mirroring means that I can't play video material out to my TV, then in what sense is there any video-out capability at all?
There is only safety and warranty paperwork in the Apple adapter packaging - no help information. And I haven't found further guidance online either.
I do note somewhere online that it suggests that basic non-mirroring video-out (for this adapter) only works with some external TV sets. Any way of finding out which? I'm using a Sanyo CE32LD90-B LCD TV if it helps.
So far not doing very well.

Now found these but have had to give up on this adapter!

Create a Form in Acrobat Standard that can be filled out AND SIGNED using Free Reader

I am tasked with creating forms that can be read, filled out and signed and submitted electronically by users that have only the reader software. I am using Acrobat 5 standard. I have not yet found a way to successfully create a form field that would allow users to insert a signature of some sort. This signature does not have to be encrypted, or use the digital signature system Adobe Acrobat has where you create a profile, log in, etc. It could be as simple as the ability to insert a jpeg or other image of their handwritten signature. This is to avoid having to have them fill it out, and then print it and fax or scan it in. It would be great if they could fill it out and then just save it and email it. How would I do this, or is it even possible?
Thanks,
JOhn

With AA5, there is no capability to submit a signature - even electronic. You can create a form that can be filled out, signed in the sense of adding a name and date, and submit to a web site.
Insertion of images is not part of forms with AA5, but I think has become possible recently. Even so, they reader would also have to be compatible with the feature to be able to use it. If the typing of the name and the date would do, then you can add those fields - sort of the limit with AA5.
With AA5, they can not save the form with the data. They can submit the data as an FDF file to a web site. If you have control of the client machines, then you can consider e-mail since those issues can be worked out locally. Without control of the clients (like a general form on the web), don't bother with e-mail since there will always be some that have problems.

What do I need to fill out and print a PDF form?
