I have an Adobe document that performs a database lookup based on a value keyed into document. It works fine in LiveCycle and Acrobat, but does not work in Reader. From what I've read it looks like I need 'Reader Extensions'. How and where do get this feature?
Thanks,

Bonjour,
The pdf file is well protected and my students have access to «all the Reader's tools».
Yet, if they save their work, they can't access their file anymore.
They get a message stating that since the file had been changed the tools extensions are no longer available.
I want them to write notes on their files during their exams.
I want them to be able to save their pdf files and go back to it after a few minutes or hours.
How do I correct this?
Thanks

Hello experts
I have just installed Windows x64 turnkey version of LC server.
I got some errors during installation (admittedly I should have make a note of these, sadly I havent) however these were not particulary descriptive so I have decided to continue and see if I will be able to fix these later.
At the moment I only had a look at admin console (seems to work fine) and I tried to launch Reader Extensions module but latter does not want to start. After logging in I am presented with following message:
Application alert
A fault occured while trying to access the list of Reader Extensions credentials
and subsequently I am being logged off.
I tried to find the cause of that issue in Trust Store to no avail.
Can anyone help?
Regards
Michael
I want to run only LiveCycle Reader Extension ES. Is it possible?
If possible, are there any scope to purchase liveCycle Reader Extension ES software?
Hi everyone,
I reader extended a form in my trial version. After that, when I try to open the form in livecycle designer, I see a message box saying that
" Some usage rights have been applied to the form you want to open. Opening the form will remove usage rights. Do you want to continue? "
Why is this message appearing? why is it removing the usage rights when I open the form?
Thanks in advance,
kc
Hi,
I am using LiveCycle Designer ES3 to produce a form to which I then applied reader extensions through Adobe Acrobat Pro XI. The users of the form have been using Adobe Reader 9 to fill out and save the form. The form is loaded into TRIM (a records management system. See http://www8.hp.com/au/en/software-solutions/software.html?compURI=1173707) and via a TRIM workflow various users fill it out as required. This was working okay in TRIM until a recent network changeover and this is where the explanation gets complicated.
The form hasn't changed but some users are now on a different network from the TRIM server and these users are also using Reader XI. When trying to get the form out of TRIM to work on it they get a message "This document enabled features in Adobe Reader. The document has been changed since it was created and use of extended features is no longer available. Please contact the author for the original version of this document.". Upon opening the form they find it locked down and they cannot make any changes, let alone save them. The thing is the document has not been changed. What has changed is that the document is in TRIM. TRIM is on a different network and the users have to log into it to access it.
I sent a Reader XI user a form via email and they were able to edit and save it. When the user uploaded it to TRIM and tried to open it they received the errror message and were unable to edit the document at all.
Any suggestions or thoughts are much appreciated.
Thanks,

We have been using Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions ES Version 8 to create forms that are used internally within the business, but also externally for customers to complete and email back to us.
We haven't created new forms for a while, but now when we log into the LiveCycle Reader Extensions Server User Interface and try to res a form, it just times out.
It gets to the process status, and then just stalls and says that it's downloading, but nothing actually happens. Any ideas on a fix?
Hi all,
I'm running through an installation of LiveCycle ES with reader extensions. Everything looks on the up and up, but I'm getting "No credential found with alias" in my logs. I have the credential from Adobe installed in the livecycle config console with a random alias. The question is where do I use this alias in my configuration? I'm using WAS 6.1.
I've searched the forums for this error and there was mention of it because there are some user permissions issues, but I'm running WAS under my account which is an admin user.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi
There is no straight answer for how to get the 'Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions' anywhere. We need to connect our database web services to our LiveCycle forms. Can someone please assist?
PS:
We have forwarded this query to the Adobe team in Sydney. But I am not expecting any reply from them for next 20-30 days.
They do not seem be interested in sales. There are some queries that we are still waiting for since last 1 and half months.
It would be great if Adobe shows some interest in building relations and provide at least some pre-sales service if not after-sales.
Hi,
Adobe has informed us that we need to use Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions ES2 in stead of Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2. We had some doubts about the reason why, but that's a different issue.
Now, when we want to order Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions ES2 we need to indicate on what application server we will install (IBM WebSphere / Oracle WebLogic / JBoss). However, I want to install it on a desktop pc. Can anybody explain me which of the 3 options I need to order? What is the difference?
Thanks in advance!

Just as some background: At a high level, we are trying to allow users with Adobe Reader the ability to add attachments and have them sent across via a form button submit to a well known URL/server. We have determined (thanks to your engineering folks and our own investigation) that attachments or any extra data is sent when you use the XDP payload submit type. However, at the first glance you would think that simply adding the EF.* group of permissions (relating to attachments) would suffice. But it would appear that attachments need to be sent via annotations.
So in order to do this, we are setting the Annot.* usage rights on the document. The problem is when we open the document in Adobe Reader X (10.1.1) or Adobe Reader 8.1.0, annotations or comments are not permitted despite us inspecting the PDF and confirming the proper permissions are set (via PDFBox's PDFDebugger tool).
As a side note, the only Annot permission that appears to cause us problems during setting is Annot.Online. We get the following exception: IDL:com/adobe/document/pdf/NotAllowedByCredential:1.0. Is this permission required to be able to annotate documents properly? We've been referring to the Developer's Guide and API and nothing indicates dependencies between usage rights.
Our code base is quite old (5 years old) and we are using Adobe LiveCycle Version 7.0 with Reader Extensions.
Any insights would be great.
Hi All,
I have a technical requirement I am trying to solve. I need to limit printing of a PDF. The PDF is generated dynamically and distributed immeditaly. I have come up with two ideas, both relying on javascript. The relevent approach to this fourm would be to have my PDF blessed with Reader Extensions privledges such that my PDF can make SOAP calls to a listening service that will register prints, then when it exceeds the threshold trigger document.close or a watermark.
With that said I have pulled a trial of Adobe LiveCycle ES4 and have it up and running on a server. I noticed when trying to enable the reader extensions functionallity that I needed some sort of license or credentials. Is there something I am missing in the documentation or the packaging where this evaluation license might be hiding?
With that said I must acknowledge I do see the security risk in having that avalible, which may very well be why I cannot find it. If that is the case, is there anyway to evalute this product?
- Caveat -
I have contacted Adobe Sales && 4Point solutions with no help as of yet.
Any help is appreciated
Thanks,
Jon
I'm currently using Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions ES4. We use this to extend our PDF acroforms so they can be run in Reader and execute the JavaScript. As I understand it this product is reaching end of life. What is Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions ES4 being replaced with? I've read several posts regarding this issue but there seems to be some confusion regarding LiveCycle Reader Extensions versus LiveCycle Designer. I am not using LiveCycle Designer.
We recently purchased Livecycle ES4 and was wondering how to the set the pdf with reader extensions, there dont seem to be an option available of which It was readily available in our copy of Acrobat 9.
Any help is appreciated
Good morning everyone,
I've encountered a new problem last couple of days with my PDF forms that were all reader extended either via Server or Acrobat 10 & 11.
All my clients are reporting the following error message:
"This document enabled extended features in adobe reader. The use of the extended features has expired....."
Now my question is that what causes this to pop up? I did research a bit and it does reference a date/time issue, but im getting this issue, my clients are getting this issue.
Is there something else that could trigger this?
Now, to fix it right now, i can re-apply the extended reader function to the document, but that just feels like a band-aid solution as i will no doubt be hit with this problem again in the future.
Are there any other ways to fix this permenently as i do have hundreds of these suckers that will need fixing?
Thank you very much,
Patrick
Hi all,
I have an issue about ARES. When I create a PDF file and use password to secure the document and “Changes Allowed” is set as “Commenting, filling in form fields, and signing existing signature fields”, the commenting doesn’t work and display the error as below:
Warning: JavaScript Window-
This document is not enabled for review in Adobe Reader. You must use Adobe Acrobat to review this document.
Other documents which is not set password security can be commented normally. Please give me some advices.
Any idea will be appreciated!

Ryan
Hi all,
I am totally new to this process.
We bought the LiveCycle licensed version 8.2 installed in Linux machine.
LiveCycle PDF Generator ES and LiveCycle Reader Extension ES alone.
The person who installed was resigned from service, so this task has came to me.
I have just two question to all of them:
1. Configure the LiveCycle Reader Extension ES.
2. Create Watch folder concents for comment enabling purpose.
I have created an watch folder using the Services-->Applications and services-->Archive Management-->Samples - Reader Extensions - ReviewAndCommenting 1.0--> Configure.
The the configuring ReviewAndCommenting, "Security" tab "INVOKE_PERM" --> "allows Invocation of all operations on the Service", was checked.
Setting-->Trust Store Management-->Local Credentials-->update Credentials-->Reader Extensions Credential
Setting-->Trust Store Management-->Certificates-->update Ccertificate-->Trust for Certify Signature Trust for Certificate Authentication Trust for Signature Trust for SSL connections Trust for OCSP Server Trust for Identity
Watch folders directory were properly created, when I place a pdf "INPUT" folder its immediately go to failure and .log file was generated.
