When you create a form and you want the user to fill it and save it with the filled data, you have to select in Acrobat Pro the menu option "Advanced/extended features in Adobe Reader".
But in Acrobat XI There is no "Advanced" menu and I can't find "Extended features in Adobe Reader" anywhere.
How the hell is it done with Acrobat XI?
File > Save as Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools (includes form fill-in & save)

Thank you!
I wonder why are the programmers always moving things from one place to another as in a supermarket?

I'm not sure. This one in particular has changed to some extent every time since it was first available with Acrobat 8:
For future reference:
A7: Comments > Enable for Commenting and Analysis in Adobe Reader
A7: Tools > Typewriter > Enable Typewriter tool in Adobe Reader
A8: Advanced > Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader
A9: Advanced > Extend Features in Adobe Reader
A10: File > Save As > Reader Extended PDF > Enable Additional Features
A11: File > Save as Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools (includes form fill-in & save)
ADC: File > Save as Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools (includes form fill-in & save)

Hello,
I have Adobe Acrobat Reader DC version 2015.023.20070. When I pick Save as Other, my only options are Text... or Word or Excel Online. How do I get the "Reader Extended PDF" option?

Not available in Acrobat Reader. Use Adobe Acrobat for this.
