When a PDF form and reopen it are empty

When I fill out a form using XI Acrobat pro and then save it with the same name or a different name and try opening it again, it is empty.  I can't us the quick print function, and it will actually show the information I thought I saved.  But if I open it up it still shows once empty.  Any ideas?

RebeccaFlameLily,

This problem occurs when the application Preview on a Mac is used to complete the forms. It is well known preview corrupt PDF files in a number of ways, and absolutely avoid when using PDF Forms. The damage it does to a document cannot be repaired, but you can open the form in Acrobat corrupted, export the form data (in FDF or XFDF file) and import back into a blank form. Then inform your users to use Adobe Reader and not preview.

  • My office and my files are empty.

    My office and my files are empty. When I tried to replace some files, I was told that they already existed as it seems they are always there, but they are hidden and I can't get back them. No one knows what happened or what I can do to restore?

    Hello

    A handy utility to view all the files on your PC is called Commander free of charge, on the link below, because it displays the files that the operating system normally hides and has a search function.

    http://www.SnapFiles.com/PHP/download.php?id=107872&a=7122339&tag=601108&loc=10

    It is a zipped file.  If you do not have an extraction utility installed, download and install 7-Zip , which can be used to open it so that you can run the Setup program.

    When it is installed, run Commander for free and see if your missing files are now visible.  If they are, right click the folder they are in and select Properties, clear the check box of the "Hidden" box and click on apply to save the changes.  Then close free Commander and check if the folder and the files it contains are now visible in Windows.

    Whenever I close Firefox (when I'm leaving for a few days, or when the office closes from one day to the next day for some reason toher) and reopen it, the tabs that I got at the last session (usually calendar Google and Facebook) not open automatically. Google gmail tab is there - and I am sure that I always have to login.
    The indications 'Aid' Firefox says (1) close by clicking the Firefox button at the top of the window, then clicking on "exit". To open, click Firefox at the top, click on 'Options', select 'Général' and select ' show my windows and tabs from last time.

  • Buttons on the dialog and prompt boxes are empty and nothing happens when I click on them.

    Whenever a dialog box or a dialog box appears, all the buttons, or sometimes just the low two (OK and cancel) are empty and nothing happens when I click on them, with the exception of a Web site in which clicking on the white button who normally says 'OK' takes me to a white screen. This does not allow me to access some sites or Web download anything when a dialog box asks me to confirm. So, I also can't start firefox in safe mode or refresh.

    An example is attached. This is what came up when I tried to update to firefox. Nothing happens when I click on one of the buttons at the bottom.

    EDIT: Attached the image.

    Hmm. could be a corrupted file was the cause, and it replaced.
    As long as the problem disappeared.

    Please mark your last post as solved so other will know.

  • Can I make a PDF form and submit to the CF?

    Hello.
    I wonder what can I do this.
    I would like to create a form as an example of order of the life cycle of the creator. And want to submit it as a POST of a ColdFusion backend method. Think like a HTML form submission.

    Would this be possible? Or I must have OF the lifecycle for this kind of task.

    PDF form generated starting from CF and submit to the CF-> database appears as an attraction for me. No problem for the fixed CSS bug.

    Read the documentation on CF8: «Many forms created in LiveCycle Designer allows several types of communication, including the XDP and XML, ColdFusion 8 can only retrieve data from HTTP post and presentations PDF»

  • My monitor pane and preview source are empty

    I PPro CS6 (6.05) on a PC with Windows 7-64.  I installed body on a new laptop about 6 months ago and use this configuration since install.  Today when I started a project, both the source monitor and preview screen are blank.  In other words, when I try to add something in the source monitor, there is no video.  If I move the video and audio to the timeline, I see the horizontal bars for video and audio.  When I scrub through the timeline, I can hear the audio, but there is no video in the preview pane.

    Also, when I export the video, I get the export settings window that opens and I can see the video in this window, and the finished (in MP4 format) video shows the video perfectly.

    I've changed a setting or is there something else?

    Re-install.

  • You can copy several fields in a pdf form and paste them elsewhere?

    I created forms in Adobe 9 Standard and are posted on our company for users to access intranet. All forms work well, but a group wants to be able to copy and paste the data from the form in our call tracking software for later use. It is now possible by copying and pasting each field one at a time. Is my question there a way to copy multiple fields at once and paste the data elsewhere in the text even simple, no recognition of fonts not required.

    Kerry N

    Unfortunately, you won't find that in Reader.

    The only thing I could suggest is to send you the file, then you can export it to text and send it. If it's only one or two now and then, it would not be a big deal, but to run if they have hundreds of them...
