1. Re: How does one make the xdp to pdf document editable?
N Santosh Kumar Jun 24, 2013 8:59 AM (in response to JosephDoggie)Is the user trying to edit the document using Adobe Reader?
If yes, You need to reader extend the PDF in order to enable users to edit the PDF using Adobe Reader.
You can Reader extend PDF using Acrobat or LiveCycle server depending up on the volume or usage.
Please go through this blog to understanding the licensing of Reader Extensions http://blogs.adobe.com/livecycle/2013/05/understanding-reader-extensions-licensing.html

2. Re: How does one make the xdp to pdf document editable?
JosephDoggie Jun 24, 2013 9:07 AM (in response to N Santosh Kumar)This would be editing the form in the internet explorer (or browser of choice); we have this working for another form, so I assume that extensions are not needed. Is there a property to enable editing or "unlock" the form?
Thanks again.

3. Re: How does one make the xdp to pdf document editable?
JosephDoggie Jun 24, 2013 11:07 AM (in response to JosephDoggie)In comparing the xdp files (as xml, using SVN diff, whcih in turn uses WinMerge), I noticed that if I change the following field from static to dynamic:
defaultPDFRenderFormat acrobat9.1dynamic
the form appears to allow editing.
However, I made other changes, so I am not sure if this is the one that made the most impact.
Of course, one has to be very cautious when editing xdp files.
Unfortunately, this editor here doesn't allow me to copy and paste, so this is about all I am going to write for now.
