Hello,

I have 2 documents that I can open separately in Livecycle but I would like to turn them into one PDF form (and I cannot merge them in Adobe Pro since they are XML). How can I merge them in Livecycle?

Thanks,

Caroline

How to validate PDF document with JAVA

$

Hi,

Is there any way to write JAVA app that will validate PDFs through/with LC API ? I was traying with code:

 

...

ServiceClientFactory myFactory = ServiceClientFactory.createInstance(connectionProps);
FormsServiceClient formsClient = new FormsServiceClient(myFactory);
      
FormsResult renderedForm = renderPDF(formName, xmlData, url, formsClient);        
           
RenderOptionsSpec processSpec = new RenderOptionsSpec();
//processSpec.setValidationReporting(5);
processSpec.setLocale("pl_PL");
FormsResult formOut = formsClient.processFormSubmission(renderedForm.getOutputContent(),"CONTENT_TYPE=applicati on/pdf","",processSpec);

System.out.println(formOut.getValidationErrorsList().toString());

...

//Rendering method

private static FormsResult renderPDF(String formName,String  xmlData, String url, FormsServiceClient formsClient) throws RenderFormException, DSCException, UnsupportedEncodingException {
       
         PDFFormRenderSpec pdfFormRenderSpec = new PDFFormRenderSpec();
         pdfFormRenderSpec.setCacheEnabled(new Boolean(false));
         pdfFormRenderSpec.setXMLData(true);
         pdfFormRenderSpec.setStandAlone(true);
         pdfFormRenderSpec.setLinearizedPDF(true);
                 
         URLSpec urlSpec = new URLSpec();
         urlSpec.setContentRootURI(url);

 

         String credentialAlias = CREDENTIAL_ALIAS;
         String credentialPassword = CREDENTIAL_PASSWORD;
       
         ReaderExtensionSpec reOptions = new ReaderExtensionSpec();
         reOptions.setReCredentialAlias(credentialAlias);
         reOptions.setReCredentialPassword(credentialPassword);
         reOptions.setReExpImp(true);
         reOptions.setReFillIn(true);
         reOptions.setReDigSig(true);

 

         Document inputData = new Document(xmlData.getBytes("UTF-8"));
         /*return renderedForm = formsClient.renderPDFForm(formName,inputData,pdfFormRenderSpec,urlSpec,null);*/
         return formsClient.renderPDFFormWithUsageRights(formName,inputData,pdfFormRenderSpec,reOptions,u rlSpec);
    }

 

but in formOut.getValidationErrorsList() i still get:

 

[8/2/10 12:03:46:728 GMT+01:00] 0000002c SystemOut     O --------------------Validation------------

without any errors. I was looking around (google,forum and Adobe Develop Connection) but no luck . Is it posible to make it that way ?

 

Ps.

It's my first post so (if i did something wrong ) be gentle. And ... sorry for my poor english .

How to merge multiple PDF documents into 1 single PDF document?

$

Hello .. I need help on below point ..

 

I have a requirement in my project wherein I need to merge multiple PDF documents into 1 single PDF document using Adobe LiveCycle. The documents that are to be merged are all created using Adobe LiveCycle. These individual generated PDF documents reside on the server. The end user can select from a list of documents (these could be any number) and select them for viewing and printing.

 

What I need to do is iterate through the list of all selected documents on the screen and then merge them into 1 single document and present it to the end user.

 

We use Java and Adobe LiveCycle WebServices for invoking methods to generate these reports. Is there any Webservice or any Java API that can help me achive this task of merging documents?

 

Looking for your help.

 

Thanks!

Issues with language from form locale & PDF language syncing

$
0
0

I have my completed fillable PDF form that I designed in the LiveCycle, but when it's in its PDF version, it's not reflecting "English" as the language setting.

 

Here's what I've done:

 

In LiveCycle:

File --> Form Properties --> Defaults --> Form Locale is set to "English USA"

 

On the same form, in PDF:

File --> Properties --> Advanced --> Language is BLANK & GREYED out so I cannot even edit it.

 

I'm running LiveCycle 8.2 and Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro.

 

We can't upload currently because it's not Section 508 compliant with the missing language. I work for the government so there's no workaround - it has to be fixed.

 

Any advice?

Move table rows up and down

$

Hi,

 

I am creating a dynamic table that will, depending on how many options are chosen, have Row1[0], Row1[1], Row1[2], etc. When a row is created I would like to put a button on the row to allow users to move the row up or down  in the table order. I have been trying to adapt a bit of JavaScript from the help files which moved a subform but I have had no luck. The JavaScript was based on the index but my index kept turning out to be 0 no matter how many rows I put in. I feel that I am missing something simple about how to capture the index number of a particular row.

 

Does anyone have any ideas or do I have to explain myself better? Or, should I just give up on the idea?!?!?!!!

 

Thanks for your help,

Password protect form structure

Hello,

 

I am looking for a way to password protect the code/structure of the form but leave everything else open/unsecure ie filling, printing, emailing, ect.  Is there a way to do this?  I don't want the user to see the protection.  If someone was to open the form in Livecycle ES2 I wouldn't want someone to be able to make changes unless they entered a password.

Unable to view pdf created in Live Cycle Designer ES2-initially thought to be a user/OS issue

$

Unable to view pdf created in Live Cycle Designer ES2.  I initially thought this was a user / OS issue when I created a document for someone who is new to a MAC laptop.  She could not view the document through email.  Unfortunately, I began seeing the same error in my own document folders when searching for another document showing as icons instead of a list.  I can open the file without a problem although I see the error she sees only while viewing the icons in my folder.  I am using a Windows 7 PC. Now, I also know that if the document is downloaded, it can be viewed.

 

Other notes:

  1. If trying to access the form via the internet, the same error is seen through Chrome, Firefox, and Mozilla but NOT through IE
  2. Everyone seems to have the latest or a very recent READER
  3. The form is compatible with Reader versions 7 and up
  4. Again, downloading from the internet to the computer appears to allow the file to open properly
  5. Document cannot be viewed on the Galaxy Tab 2 via Chrome or the pre-installed Internet Browser, nor can it be viewed through the Reader after download to tablet. I did not try on an Apple iPad.
  6. All parties involved are up-to-date with virus protection.

 

Below is a link to the exact message received when trying to open the document.

Looking for help with repeating table rows and subform

$
0

I’m hoping someone might be able to help me figure out how to accomplish some things with a repeating table subform in a form I’m building.  I’ve attached the file here. 

https://workspaces.acrobat.com/?d=2nUNZuTf2T4tsdSykMTlXw

 

I have a table (AssessChart1Table) it set up on pg 7 (Analysis) and have built in buttons(AddRowAssesChart1 and DeleteRowAssesChart1) so the user can add or delete additional rows of data as needed. 

The problem is that the user also enters data going across in the header row (AssessChart1HeaderRow1) of this table.  There are 10 columns available; however, they may need to add more data than that. Therefore, I made a button (AddMoreCourses) for the user to click to add another instance of the table subform (AssessEvalChart1) and also undo the adding of the subform with this button (UndoAddMoreCourses).

In addition, I have it setup that whatever data the user enters into the cell (Prog-DeptObjChart1) cell of that table gets automatically transferred to another table (AssessChart2Table),  cell (Prog-DeptObjChart2), which is located on the next page (AnalysisCont1).

 

All of the above works fine except that whenever the user presses the button (AddMoreCourses) I don’t want it to automatically fill in the text field cells that are copied over from (AssesChart1HeaderRow3) because I need the user to be able to enter different values in lieu of adding more columns to fit their data.  Additionally, I would like the values from the cells in the left column to repeat though because these values won’t change. Currently the values from the cells in the left column that carry down to (AssessChart2Table) get messed up on (AssessChart2Table) anytime I the user pushes Add More Courses button or Undo Add More Courses button.

In summary the tables would look like the attached screenshots:

Analysis_-_Assement_Chart_1.png:Analysis_-_Assess_Chart_2.png

 

Any help would be so greatly appreciated.  I am not experienced with Livecycle Designer.  The form I've built by reading examples and forums. 

 

In case you need this, I'm using Livecycle Designer v. 9.0.0.2.20120627.2.874785 on a Windows 7 Pro platform.

 

Thank you!

Add file/attachment button showing file name next to it (Livecycle Designer ES4)

$
0
0

Problem:

I can't seem to figure out how to add an attachment/file button that will also populate the file name of the attachment to the right of it.

 

Goal:

I'd like to place multiple "add attachment/file" buttons throughout different sections on the form for supporting documentation. Wherever those buttons are, I'd like to ensure that the file names of each attachment are visible next to the button, on the form.

 

Further Information:

Currently, I have a standard "add attachment" button on the bottom left corner of my form on the Master page so that it's showing as an option for each new page added but that only makes things a bit more complicated when trying to reference the attachments. I believeeee my form is considered a dynamic form (the content is set to flowed/western text throughout) so that the fields can expand and won't overlap. The form is going to be utilized between different area's at different times. If I can ensure the add attachment or file button can be embedded anywhere on the form containing the file name(s), that'd improve the use of this form and process tremendously!

 

If needed, I can attach the form so that you can see what it looks like. Each time I've googled this, there's not really a great reply because it looks like most are just using acrobat. I'm newer to LiveCycle and am self-taught. So any assistance would be amazing!

 

Thanks!

Continuous Tabbing Across Pages

I have recently started to use Lc and when trying to make an interactive form for my users I came across a problem I can't solve.  The answer is not in the index and not listed on any forum that I can find.

 

How do you make your fields continuously tab into page 2,3, and beyond?  I can tab all the way through page 1 but when get to that last field and hit tab, wanting to go to page 2, I find myself at the top of page 1 again.

 

Please help, this is driving me crazy!

 

Thank you.

Allow a break in a form via JavaSkript

Hi all,

 

I have got a problem regarding breaks in a form. I concentrate data in SAP with ABAP in a table (several pages). And some parts of the table should't be broken in the form (at the end of the page). In ABAP I build a flag to query that via JavaSkript (in the layout).

 

If flag = X --> the rows can be broken at the end of the page 

If flag = ' ' --> the rows shouldn't be broken at the end of the page --> this rows should be located on the next page

 

How can I solve it with JavaSkript?

 

Thank you for your efforts.

How can you disable the paste function in a dynamic text box in a livecycle form?

HI

I have created several dynamic forms using livecycle.  I need to turn off the paste function in the text boxes to avoid staff from copying notes they have written previously and pasting them into a new document.  I have looked online and am not able to come up with any answers.  Maybe some sort of javascript.  They will still need to be able to type into the text box.

 

Thank you for your help

Translation form

$

  1. Hello.


I have a question to translate a form using XLIFF.
1 – LiveCycle - In the menu Tool / Options in Document Handing I enabled the option Creat Translation IDs When Saving.

2 - I worked in a file that I have to translate. In follow I saved the file with the name of B with the XDP extension.


3 - Within the Cmd, C: \ Users \ Anderson \ FormTranslation
I typed the command java -jar saxon9.jar B.xdp extractstrings.xslt> B.s2x
And then I got B.s2x file.


4 - Then I opened the file in B.s2x in the  SwordFish program to translate. In this program I translated the English language for the Portuguese language. Then I saved this file B.s2x translated.


5 - After the Cmd I typed the command
java -jar saxon9.jar B.s2x mergestrings.xslt xdpFile B.xdp => BTranslated.xdp
So I got the BTranslated.xdp file. But when I opened the file in LiveCycle BTranslated.xdp this is not translated. I cannot understand why.

Comments. In step 4 when I translated the B.s2x file by SwordFish program, I opened the file with the B.s2x Notpad and made sure it was translated.
I realized that supposedly the problem is after the command Cmd in the java -jar saxon9.jar B.s2x mergestrings.xslt xdpFile B.xdp => BTranslated.xdp the file is not converted with the translation.
I put these files in the link, if someone can help me. After all process I changed the file names for you to understand what the original files and which translated form.
If anyone can help me I thank you.
