PDF (Designer7) forms not shown in Acrobat 6 or 5

[Former Community Member]

I have created a simple PDF form with Designer 7, look at:

http://www2.fht-esslingen.de/info/11.pdf

This form can only be shown on Windows PC with Acrobat 7 Prof. not in Adobe Reader 7 or Acrobat 6 or 5.



Can anybody explain me who to create a form with Adobe Designer 7 and to use this form with Adobe Acrobat 5, 6 and Adobe Reader 7? Designer 7 is a good tool to create forms, but if nobody can read it, expect Adobe 7 Prof., than it is worthless. I tried to convert this Designer 7 form in Acrobat 7 Prof. into PDF-version 1.4, but these doesn´t work. I can´t find way to do this. Has anybody a workaround for my problem?



Best regards

I can open your form in Acrobat 6.0 , Acrobat 7.0.5 and Reader 7 without any problem. I don't have Acrobat 5 so I don't can't tell if it can be opened in Acrobat 5.
