Barcode enable in Reader

Hi

I am setting up a proof of concept which will make use of a form containing a PDF417 barcode.

For the moment, I am using the trial version of Acrobat DC. I was able to design the test form and the barcode is working fine, updating as I enter fields data.

I then sent the form to a colleague for him to test it and the barcode field greyed out when any text field was filled. I is not a barcode overflow because thsi happens even if we simply check a radio or checkbox field.

One reason I found for this is this behaviour is that what I am trying to achieve seems to require a reader extensions certificate. I did find a trial version of such a sertificate but I am unable to install it. The documents I found regarding installing certificates mention using a console but I cannot find how to run the console (it is not the javascript console). This document explains how to use this console but seems to assume the reader knows all about it : http://wwwimages.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/enterprise-platform/digtalLearning/pdfs/documentServices/adep_doc…

So my questions are :

1. Is there any way to setup my demo with trial versions of Acrobat DC (and possibly RE certificate) ?

2. Am I on the right track regarding what is needed. If yes, how do I install this certificate ? If not, how do I solve my problem ?

3. This is all taking much more time than anticipated and I will be busy on another project for a few days. Since the trial license only is 7 days, is there a way to syspend the trial ?

Thanks for your help !
