I have Adobe pro 9 and for some reason I can no longer edit the form. All option were there last week and I've not made any installs/changes to my unit.

Platform is windows 7.

In what way does the problem manifest itself? How are you trying to edit the file, and what's preventing you from doing it?

Greetings Try67,

In this case just trying to add a signature block by inserting a text box. Can draw a box with the mouse but cannot insert any text. It was working fine until this morning. No updates have been performed on the unit.

Note: none of the options are available within the tools dropdown i.e. all grayed out.

Thank you for your assistance on this matter.

Patrick

It sounds like the file you're trying to edit is either secured, locked (using a digital signature) or otherwise disabled from editing (like if it's a LiveCycle Designer form or a PDF/A).
