Okay, so every so often when I am editing a form ((MAINLY FORM 8821, from the IRS)) I get a message that my form cannot be edited in Adobe & that it needs to be edited in LiveCycle Designer... But where & How do I do this. I can't info on LiveCycle Designer anywhere! And so when I ask adobe for tech support I am told that adobe does not offer support for livecycle any longer!

Notwithstanding this, it is basically discontinued and can no longer be purchased except as part of a suite costing tens of thousands of dollars (as I understand it).

You are NOT MEANT to edit these forms, and trying to can cause SERIOUS issues. This often happens with Government forms. Worse, people sometimes do manage to edit it, which makes the forms useless and may get into all sorts of issues with the Government. DO NOT TRY TO EDIT IRS FORMS, EVER !! Only fill them.

Hi,

Try this method of downloading the trail,

LiveCycle Blog: Designer ES4 direkte Download-Links//Designer ES4 direct download links

LiveCycle Designer is now called AEM Forms Designer and I believe it is available for standalone purchase. Expand the faq "I am using LiveCycle Designer and I just want a few more Designer licenses. What do I do?" on this page, End of Core Support Notice for Adobe LiveCycle , for more details

Regards

The link to Adobe Checkout displays a "Product not available" page. I need a standalone, replacement product for Adobe LiveCycle ES4 to create static, accessible, PDF forms. Any information is appreciated.
