LiveCycle does not maintain Acrobat Usage Rights

[lukegatos]

I am trying to take a fillable pdf, add a email submit and save it. When I open the pdf in LiveCycle I get told that opening the file will remove all usage rights (and it does, I can only save my modified file as a static pdf). How do I maintain the fillable form?

This is the normal and expected behaviour. A rights-enabled interactive PDF is enabled for the purpose of opening and filling in Adobe Reader. LiveCycle Designer is a tool for authoring XDP and PDF files. You wouldn't want to assign rights to a form that would allow another form author to take and modify your form.
