Why Doesn't the Acrobat File Toolbar Have a "Save As" Button?

One of the most frequently used functions in Acrobat is located under the File menu where you can select "Save As" to select from a number of different file formats and then save the file in a specified folder.  The File Toolbar includes a "Save" icon/button that saves only a pdf formatted file to your Documents folder (or whichever folder you specify in Preferences) instead of to whatever specific folder you might want to file that particular document.  Another problem is that when you receive a pdf document by email or download it from the internet, it usually comes with a file name that you wouldn't want to use for the file.  Once the file is open, you'll want to rename it and save it somewhere.  However, if you have not changed the document in any way like editing or commenting, the only applicable icon on the File Toolbar, the Save button, is greyed out and can't be used until you alter the document.
As such, the easy access to the "Save" button on the File Toolbar is wasted in that it will rarely be used when it's not greyed out, and when it might be used before any editing or commenting, it remains greyed out and inaccessible.  My request is to make an Icon or even just the label for "Save As" available for selection to go on the File Toolbar where it could be easily accessed.  Also, let the user decide if he wants to do a save before altering a document, skip the greying out of the buttons, make them always available for use.

Unfortunately it's not a realistic possibility, because the Save As menu has two sub-levels across several nodes. A drop-down button can't handle that.

  • Why doesn't the only Admin user have Admin permissions? (with pictures)

    So a while ago I ran into the problem that I couldn't run certain programs because I don't have certain Permissions. But I am the only Admin user and I still can't go throught some of the program files without manually having to give myself permission.
    I see the ONLY user is Admin
    But when I go through the security tabs, I see
    2 users with the same name but slightly different description
    Is there any way I can fix this?

    I started having this problem on Nov.11th and it happened after I reset the IE on my computer because I was unable to use IE to get on the internet. I don't know if resetting IE is the reason for this problem, but after reading your comment it probably didn't. Below is a copy of my comment on this forum. Right now my comments and a reply by Travis can be found on page 5 of thuis forum. Are you using Vista Basic or Home Premium? I have a feeling some kind of update changed this.

    A few days ago I couldn't get on the Internet as IE wouldn't work and connection for the internet was ok so out of desperation I did an IE reset. It still didn't work so a family member came over and got it working, but now I get the User Account Control permission  popup each time I sign on the desktop by clicking on the IE shortcut.  I went to the security folder and turned off the User Account Control and now I'm not getting that popup each time I click on the desktop IE. This popup never used to come on when clicking on the IE shortcut, so something must have happened when I did the reset of IE.  Does anyone know how to keep on the User Account Control for all but the IE?
    I  have a feeling I by accident changed a setting on IE and probably wouldn't have had to do an IE reset.but now the problem is I would like to keep the User Account Control  permission popup for all but the IE shortcut on my desktop.
    By the way my family member right clicked the desktop shortcut for IE and did something with Run as Administrator to get IE working again.

  • Recording Audio from additional sources:  Why doesn't the "Audio File" show

    Hi, when recording audio from another source and saving: where does logic store the file? Shouldn't it be in the "audio' folder or the set path you set it to>?
    For some reason after we record the "Audio File" we recorded is not to be found in the "Audio" folder we created within our project?
    clues?

    Can you define "from another source". I'll assume for now, you mean, from an external live source, like a vocal, or guitar.
    Yes, if you had saved the song using the "Save As Project" command, the audio path to that songs audio folder should have been set. and all audio files recorded into that song would reside in that location.
    The only thing that you might want to check, is hit "A" with the song open, and make sure "choose path" is set to "Song Recording Path" and not "Global Recording Path".

  • Why doesn't the GSM iphone 5 have five LTE bands?

    I notice the CDMA iphone has five LTE bands while the GSM instrument has been separated into a European and North American version.

    Because it doesn't. No one here can answer any question as to why Apple made the engineering decison they did.

  • Why doesn't the new time capsule have a thunderbolt port?

    it seems absurd apple wouldn't have put a thunderbolt port on the new time capsule.....what am I missing here?

    It is a network device.. there is no local connection.. and never has been. Thunderbolt chipsets are super expensive still.. which is why the cheapest external thunderbolt drives are still far more expensive than USB3.
    If you put a thunderbolt into the TC it is then a local drive and no internet connection.

  • Why doesn't the brazilian iTunes Store have Tv Shows?

    Hi!. I live in Brazil and before the Brazilian apple store was created I had an account in the iTunes Store of United States. I don't know if this just happens to me but when I log in to my account and it atomatically redirects me to the Brazilian iTunes Store the option 'Tv Shows' isn't available. I would like to know if this is a problem with my credit card or something else. Or if this option doesn't really exist in the Brazilian iTunes Store. Thank you.

    Because no app maker has made one and sold it on the Candian App Store.

  • Why doesn't the input file dialog prompt once I attach it to a device?

    For my project I am require to move a 3-axis robot from a list of set co-ordinates to either cut into/draw a picture. The only way I can thnk of doing this is by reading the co-ordinates from a spread sheet and timing it to read the co-ordinates and send the information to the straight-line move function (Softmotion).
    The problem occurs once I try to run the program while it's connected to the devices (motors). The file dialog prompt no longer shows up and Error 43 shows up right away. I traced the problem to the read from spread sheet vi, but I am not sure what to do because it is a standard function in labview.
    If you could take a look and give me some input it would be greatly appriciated, I've been learning labview on my own for about a month so if you can please use simple explinations.
    Solved!

    Thanks for the help so far, so I did as you said and added a set path for the program to retreive the file from. I've tested the program by running it in my computer and the file reads properly so my assume is the file is being located and data is taken properly.
    But I still run into the same error when I run it in cRio. I'm still being told labview cannot locate the file.

  • I have Adobe Reader X on Windows Vista. Why doesn't the Printer for Adobe PDF show up in my Hardware/printers? Or can I add it to the Hardware/Printers?

    I have Adobe Reader X in Windows Vista. Why doesn't the Adobe PDF show up as a printer in my Hardware/Printers? Or can I add it to the Hardware/Printers? And how?

    Adobe Reader - FREE - reads PDF files, prints them, fills forms.
    Adobe Acrobat - $$ - as Reader, and makes PDFs and edits them, sorta, and does a bunch more.
    So if you had Acrobat try and find the license to avoid having to pay again...

  • Why doesn't the iPad have a guest screen like the PC for extra security?

    I just want to start off first by saying I just purchased my iPad about six months ago and I'm really enjoying it,but if you're like me,I believe in protecting my privacy.
    I don't like to turn down any of friends or coworkers when I'm asked to use my iPad,but when you have such things as your personal pictures,movies,music,business documents,etc...you'd like to keep them from prying eyes. I thought that with the new iOS 7 update,that issue would've been fixed, but I was wrong. I'm hoping Apple would correct this problem with the next iOS update,it would make a lot of loyal Apple consumers & anyone who's new to purchasing the iPad for the first time very happy to know that feature is available.
    Why doesn't the iPad offer a guest screen?

    Tell Apple at the link below.

    If it's not a free item then you should get the 'add to wish list' icon via the share button - is it a free or paid-for item that you are looking at ?

  • Why doesn't the iPhone 5 have the call bar feature like the 4S does?

    Why doesn't the iPhone 5 have the call bar feature like the 4S does?

    From the Swype website:
    Why isn’t Swype available for iPhone/iPad/BlackBerry/Windows Phone?
    Due to the technical design of some operating systems, it is not possible for third party keyboards (such as Swype) to be offered at this point in time. Please communicate to your device/OS manufacturer that you’d like to see Swype available as a keyboard option!

  • HT1657 I had rented a movie on my IPhone5 and after downloading almost all of it, I get an error that there is no enough space. Why doesn't the store check to see if I have enough free space before proceeeding with the order?

    After downloading almost all of it, I get an error that there is no enough space. Why doesn't the store check to see if I have enough free space before proceeeding with the order?
    How do I get a refund?

    Well, with apps genneraly you do get told ahead of time. I'm not sure of the current algorithm with movies though.
    Why not just clear up some space? You can check your usage in your settings btw.

  • Why doesn't the iphone have flash player?

    why doesn't the iphone have flash player?

    Because it *****, has security holes in it and your phone battery life wouldn't be as good as it's today. For starters.....
    Flash is heading in the direction of a dying breed. HTML5 will take it over eventually, once the world buttheads finally come to agree on its final standards.
