Hi,

 

Looking at the description given above, what I could think of, the only reason for not being able to edit the document is applying signature on it.

Did they sign the PDF form before saving it? If yes, then it become restricted to make further changes. Signing is the final step, once done, the document is secured and can't be edited.

 

Ask them to Sign it at the end. Till then, form can be filled, saved and changed. 

 

Thanks,

Akanchha

Hi there

 

++ Adding to the suggestion by AkanchhaS

 

If they are the only one signer, they can remove the signature and then work on the document. For more information please look at the help page: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/acrobat/kb/edit-signed-PDF.html#CanIeditaPDFthatIsigned

 

Hope this information will help

 

Regards

Amal

I don't think this is related to signatures. I doubt your students are digitally signing the file...

My guess is it's related to the application they're using to view it. Could you confirm what application(s), including version numbers, they're using to open the form?
