CS4 Acrobat form submit: PDF still editable by the recipient?

Hello

Thank you for reading. I'm new to Acrobat and just bought CS4. I created a form to send by e-mail. However, I noticed that the form is still editable when the recipient sees.

How can I flatten that the form send noneditable (flattened PDF)?

Thank you for taking the time to read this issue.

Phillip: I covered the Security tab in my first post. And, if the mailto: sends the entire document, and then it should maintain the applied security (PDF file is secure based on the settings that you create and can only be changed if the password is entered). I'm not sure that anything is if all other options are selected in the action 'send form '.

I have a lot of experience with the application of security for PDF files, but my experience with the form submission is limited.

M! M! C: How do configure you the submit button? If possible, send the whole PDF should give you what you are looking for.

    Not the answer you want, but you could set up your quick customer with an ftp upload which would replace the existing pdf. I use Transmit and it would allow your customer to simply drag and drop on a folder.

  • Acrobat form - how to take advantage of the first letters of the words of field.

    I produced my first Acrobat form and am setting the validation rules on certain fields.  I want to ensure all names and addresses are saved with the first letter of each word being a capital as well as the letters are lower case.   While I found and read a few reviews, I have no script experience and positions assume a reasonable understanding of scripting, debugging, etc.

    Could someone please explain how I can achieve this.

    Thank you

    You must understand how the data will be entered and what you want to accomplish. If you want to have a function as title case, then you will need to adjust objects or other words that would not be capitalized. Users will use another character other than a space to separate words?

    Since it is an action of formatting, I would put the script as the custom format or a validation script, so that this code is not rerun each time a field used in a calculation is updated.

    Assuming that only a space character will separate the words, you can use the method '. split() ' to an array of words in the text entered in a field. You can then browse the array of words and affecting the first uppercase character and the rest of the word in lowercase, using the 'substr()' method or other methods of the property of type string.

    The simplest version of this could be:

    aInput var = event.value.split(""); make a table divided in space
    var sCharacter = ";
    Sword of var = ";

    for each element of the word table, uppercase the first letter
    for (i = 0; i
    aInput [i] = aInput [i] .substr (0, 1) .toUpperCase () + aInput [i] .substr (1). toLowerCase();
    } / / end of loop for the input string
    rebuild the input string with words changed with spaces
    Event.Value = aInput.join(' ');

    But since you will repeat this code in several areas, I would create document-level functions, so the code is in one place and be interpreted pre and run faster:

    function UpperCase (sString) {}
    Return sString.toUpperCase ();
    }

    function LowerCase (sString) {}
    Return sString.toLowerCase ();
    }

    function FirstUpperCase (sInput) {}

    aInput var = sInput.split(""); make a table divided in space
    var sCharacter = ";
    Sword of var = ";

    for each element of the word table, uppercase the first letter
    for (i = 0; i
    aInput [i] = uppercase (aInput [i] .substr (0, 1)) + LowerCase (aInput [i] .substr (1));
    } / / end of loop for the input string
    rebuild the input string with words changed with spaces
    Return aInput.join(' ');
    }

    You can then use the following code in each domain where you want to force the first character uppercase:

    Event.Value = FirstUpperCaseinputinputletter for (event.value);

    Another solution would be to use the following code in the format or validate the script:

    Event.Value = event.value.toLowerCase () replace (/ \b\w/g, function (match) {return match.toUpperCase () ;});})

    This script uses the RegEx object and its method of ". replace() ' using a self funciton set with the corresponding string.

  • Acrobat Pro DC PDF portfolio Edit

    Have upgraded to Pro DC of 10 X - a few new features and some remind me of type Windows 8 back functionality. Difficult to change the sequence of documents in a portfolio. Seems it is that a rather elaborate control systems were you select size, name, etc., and then you select the desired method. 10 x, you have to just click "Edit" and you could select and drag the files in the order you want. I can't find this in MS Pro - it seems to simply want to offer a system of predefined command that can't seem to take say 10 files and put them in a random order, you want. Someone knows how to handle this?

    You can reorganize the portfolio in the order you want by following the below mentioned steps.

    1. open the portfolio using Acrobat DC.

    2. click on view-> portfolio--> details.

    3. Add a custom field to say x using available on right click menu-> Add portfolio properties.

    4. fill the value of 'x' for the files in the order in which you want the files to be classified. You can assign the value of this field by using the value of edition available in right click menu.

    5. sort using field x.

  • Acrobat SDK vs PDF Library SDK (especially for the AcroForms)

    Hi all

    I would like to develop an application for reading and setting the value within the AcroForm and a setting AcroForm shaped. For this purpose, I would use some of the existing API methods. I have a few questions:

    1) what are the differences of the SDK Acrobat and PDF Library SDK kit? (see the Documentation of the SDK Acrobat DC)

    Among others: kit SDK Acrobat and PDF Library SDK use the same PDF Library API? Just a different subset of it? What licensing and the pricing? Is my application above suggested a Library Application called "PDF"? What Acrobat Forms API - it is part of the extended for plug-in API but is not part of the PDF Library API?

    (2) what steps can I for the formatting and setting/read the value of an AcroForm?

    Can I use the two SDKs for this? (it seems that Yes, see Adobe PDF Library SDK |) Adobe Developer Connection) what are the advantages/disadvantages? What API methods come from? (Acrobat Forms API?)

    Thanks for all the info on these points

    The PDFLibrary SDK is a subset of the Acrobat SDK kit that can be used without the need for Acrobat.  One of the things that is not present in the SDK of PDFLibrary is the API of Acrobat forms you mention.

  • Adobe Acrobat Professional DC: create a PDF file and prepare the form

    Hello!

    I would like to confirm if, in order to create a form, then start with the option 'create PDF', then we can create all the static text in our form, such as: name; Address; Phone number. Then we go to the 'form of preparation' and use this document already created and adds the editable fields where our user can add its data (for example, John; Street X; (303 303 303). At first glance, I thought that it would be possible to do this 2 components together, but now I think that it is divided into two parts. Is this true?

    If this is true, I have a 2nd question:

    How can modify us a final PDF with editable fields already created? We can download and all fields are left in their properties?

    Thank you!

    Ines, Lisbon, Portugal.

    Hi inesgui,

    You can create a form from scratch on Acrobat Pro DC or can download the PDF file and then use 'Prepare the form' to create fields to fill out.

    You can also add text when the form is created using Edit PDF under the tool menu.

    Let me know if you have any problem with him.

    Kind regards

  • How to edit text alignment and size fonts in a pdf file editable with acrobat reader DC?

    I have Adobe Acrobat Reader DC and I'm trying to edit/format text in an editable form.  I need to change the alignment of the text and the font size, but can't seem to find a way to do it.  I tried several other recommendations, including right clicking in an empty space and clicking "Properties"bar, but which is not listed as an option.  What suggestions do you have?  Please and thank you!

    Thank you!  I thought about it.  It is possible.  It's a document that I bought at TeachersPayTeachers.  The creator allowed to edit, but I don't have the original document to change, just the PDF file.  For reference, I clicked on DISPLAY in the main menu.

    Then I clicked on SHOW/HIDE.  Then COMPONENTS toolbar.  Last, I clicked on VIEW the PROPERTIES BAR.  Thank you very much for the help.  I hope this helps others.

  • Edited PDF form will be not updated for editing from the browser.

    So I was sent a form that I had previously made editable has been changed and I had to add checkboxes and text boxes. After registration and in the browser window, new fields, I added are not allowing me to enter or check them in the browser, but when I open the PDF in Acrobat Pro, all fields are appearing. Is there a special way to save the pdf file to make editable in the browser? I did it once before, and it worked fine so it's a mystery to me at the moment. Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Here is the link to the pdf document to see what I mean. All the boxes are here so I don't know why it will not work in the browser.

  • Form Acrobat automatically submit without using Outlook?

    We are using Acrobat 9 Professional, Office Standard 2007, Windows XP, and some PC have Windows 7

    We created an Acrobat form with a submit button. Everything works as expected - thank God. We are able to fill out the form, the submit button then runs a java script that creates an Outlook email, fills the header of e-mail in the subject field, text in the body of the message and adds the filled PDF as an attachment.

    Now, we are interested in the elimination of the last step: send e-mail to prospects. Anyway to get Outlook to automatically send the email without end-user intervention?

    Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

  • Submit the completed form in pdf format, excluding the previous pdf pages.

    I created a pdf workbook that includes 5 pages and a form created in Acrobat (not Livecycle).  I've created a submit button that sends the completed form (page 5) in pdf format to me. The problem which I am facing is that the entire PDF document is sent back. How can I isolate the form on the previous pages in pdf. I use Acrobat Pro vrs 9 on a windows XP computer.  Or I go about it wrong from the start.

    Change the presentation to be only the data and not the form. Select the FDF, XFDF or XML. For your request, I'd use FDF. If this form is for others to e-mail to you, then know that the argument of the mail is subject to problems that you can't prevent (all associated with the configuration of the client computer). Submission to a web script is ALWAYS preferable. In addition, you can save the also backward compatible to be sure people with earlier versions of Acrobat or Reader have no problems with it. Backward compatibility can be obtained with the Document > reduce the size of the file or with the PDF Optimization. If you used a few new features, they will be lost (but of course, those are the features that would have caused any problems).

    Once you have the FDF file, you can simply import it into the form (in some cases, just by clicking on the FDF will open in the form if you don't move the shape on your system.) You can then export the data to other formats (see the manual for more information, or just play with it).

    Hi Stephen39,

    Do you have any 3rd party plugin installed for Adobe Reader? If not, close all instances of Adobe Reader running and delete the entire folder to: C:\program Adobe [version] \Reader\plug_ins.

    Now go to control panel > programs and features. Locate the entry for Adobe Reader X and choose to repair the installation.

    If you do not have a 3rd party plugin installed, try to uninstall them and see if the problem is related to the same. If it works, let me know what plugins have been the origin of the problem so that I can have a look.

    If all goes well, this should fix things.

    Thank you
