I could not get a bar code for form 5727, I have been on this for almost 2 days. I have downloaded, installed reinstalled acrobat reader several times. I have followed up with most of the discussion here and still not having edge ways. I have the Acrobat reader Pro . Please what can I do?

    The Screen of the newly downloaded acrobat11


    I've opened the file in Reader 11.0.18 and it works fine.

    Try downloading a fresh version of it, from here: https://www.wpvs.com/UserFiles/File/Canada_IMM5257B_Schedule_1_Form.pdf

    > The issue that I’m facing is that when the form is filled out and at the end you need to validate, after validation barcodes should show up at the end of the document. This doesn’t happen.

    We understand your issue, thank you it is very clear.

    > Please advise what to do and how to solve this?

    Apparently, you need to install the old version of the software.

    > When you try to install the older version it says that is not possible.

    Right, THIS is your current problem. Focus here. Please give the exact message, word for word. A screen shot would be good but please DO NOT TRY TO EMAIL IT.

    Do you have a link for installing older version of the program on a Mac?

    I have removed the lagets version of Acrobat reader and tried to install an older one but still it doesn’t work. When you try to install the older version it says that is not possible. The issue that I’m facing is that when the form is filled out and at the end you need to validate, after validation barcodes should show up at the end of the document. This doesn’t happen. Please advise what to do and how to solve this?

    That advice was already given. You need to uninstall your current version before installing the older one, though.

    You need to use an earlier version of Reader for this, unfortunately. Try version 11 from here:
