Am I correct in that rights enabled allows the completed form to be saved by the reader when the document is saved? Yes BTW we have been using iText for a couple of years, to complete W4 PDFs. The resulting PDFs work in Acrobat versions 4 - 7. Only version 8 crashes. It works for me although it shows the message that the rights are no longer working, as expected. Is it possible to remove that feature from the original PDF? Is it possible to remove that feature from all the PDFs that have been generated, so they may be opened in Acrobat 8? In the /ViewerPreferences in /Catalog remove the key /Rights. Paulo Thanks for your help. -Edwin S.
