Using adobe professional I created a pdf form containing text fields to be filled and have enabled the rights to be able to modify and save the document to end users who use the pdf reader.

I have developed a java program for the automatic compilation of some fields in the document. When the document precompiled the end user fails to complete the form and text fields and to save the document.

How can I to enable the rights for end-users who use acrobat reader using java code?

My Product Information:
Acrobat Pro 8.0, Windows

Please read the first item in the FAQ list anchored at the top of this forum about setting up the form for Reader saving.

With JavaScript, no, because of security restrications added by Adobe.

You have use Acrobat 8 Professional, Acrobat 9 any variation, LiveCycle ES server, or licensed 3rd party. You hae to do this one form at a time with the Acrobat product. And you should keep a copy of the form without the extended rights for later updates.

I know well how to save copies with rights-enabled end-users. But my problem is to create the copies (of a base form created with adobe professional 8) with rights enabled through a program written with java code.
