Hello together,

I got some problem at the creation of forms in Professionel 8.0.

I created a form for my company, with some simple calculations (summary 1 field + 1 field = result), I have checked if all fields are worked correct and this would be given and the fields are working okay.

But after i have activate the usage rights and saved the PDF with a new name they dont working any time longer.

I opened the PDF click into the first calculation field and enter some numbers into the field, but in the result field nothing happens. I dont know why the calculation dont work any longer after activating usage rights.

This problem is only given if I activate the usage rights, but it is necessary for me to activate those.

I hope that someone could help me please.
