Save As button
I created a form using Microsoft Word for the layout, and added form fields in Acrobat. Then I opened the form in LiveCycle because I like the calendar feature that LiveCycle has for date fields. The problem is that I had a Save As button field in the Acrobat form, but it doesn't work in LiveCycle. Does anyone know a way to enable a Save As button in LiveCycle? (The Print Button that I made in the Acrobat form works fine.)

Can't edit captions
I have a form that was created by printing an excel spreadsheet to PDF and then we are editing in Livecycle ES - the form fields have been added. However, we can't edit the captions for a radio button group and options like insert Text are grayed out in the menu. Is there just something weird about this because of the way it was created??

How do you make a text field Read Only after it is saved and distibuted?
How do you make a text field read only after it is saved and distibuted?
LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2
This JavaScript code on the exit event:
textField1.access = "readOnly"; This works after the user loses focus on the field, however after it is saved and distributed, that field is no longer "read-only". I need to have staff insert information into a text field and then distribute it out to customers, and those fields have to be protected. How do you do this?

Hello All,
I would like to do a simple email validation, the built in email validation pattern(text{OOOOOOOO'@example.com'} ) is not really useful.

Is there any other pattern I can use?
My requirement is simple, the email should contain ‘@’ and a dot, something like ( xxx@xxx.xxx)
Any help is much appreciated.

SAP Adobe Forms : Handling Multiple tables with data flowing multiple pages
Hi All,
I have a designed a Adobe form (Elements Read only - Print Form) having different content areas(on Master page) with each having a Items table (DATA) that could flow to several pages. The items table(DATA) i am using is same in both the content areas apart form the fact that in First content area ( I named it "Main" in form) there are 4 fields in table and in second content area("Perforated area") there are 6 fields from same table, so the number of entries in the tables are same with same content.
So there are two areas and two tables : 1st : Main area ( Main area : items table ) : For Office use only
2nd : Perforated area ( Perforated area : items table ) : Customer copy
I am using Paper type : Letter format and the Main area is up to the 190 MM from the Top of the pageand the Perforated area starts from 200 mm from the top of page to the end of page.
My requirement is such that i want to show the data of both these tables in both the content areas on each page even if the content flow to next page.
For ex : If there are 15 records in Items table and according to length of content area it can accommodate only 12 entries so the 3 entries would flow to the next page in the same content area, so on page 1, Main area (Main area : items table) : should have 12 entries and on same page Perforated area (Perforated area : items table) should also have 12 entries; also on page 2 Main area (Main area : items table) : should have remaining 3 entries and on same page Perforated area (Perforated area : items table) should also have remaining 3 entries.
So here if the Table content are less and the page1 is able to accommodate all the entries both the tables and areas are having entries which is fine.
The problem arise when there are entries that flows across multiple pages. As whenever the Main area ( Main area : items table ) which is a flowable content has large entries it moves to next page (because of automatic page break) and the Perforated area : Perforated table has no entry because of break(page break) on page 1 due to Main area : items table, So Unless the first table stops executing the automatic page break the second table(perforated table in perforated area ) doesn't start printing. Here I want the page break to be executed simultaneously for both tables or something like after processing perforated table on each page. So that i get the records in both the tables on each page.
Can somebody offers some help on this? I am stuck with this and not able to move forward.
Thanks,
Rahul

auto fill form from web page content
I need to fill a field in a PDF form (version 8 or newer) with a value provided by a web page. The webpage is a counter to provide a unique, sequetial number.
I have been able to do this with Get() when using FormCalc, however I need more logic control than is provided in FormCalc.
I have attempted to implement the logic with JavaScript and getURL. When I open the form the JavaScript Console indicates: "TypeError: xfa.host.getURL is not a function"
Here is my code with some console diagnostics included:
console.println("formEmailed = " + xfa.form.topmostSubform.formEmailed.value);
if( xfa.form.topmostSubform.formEmailed.value == 1) {
console.println("assignedTR = " + xfa.form.topmostSubform.assignedTR.value);
if( !xfa.form.topmostSubform.assignedTR.value == 0){
console.println("Getting URL...");
xfa.host.getURL("http://somehost.com/index.html", true); //Get( "http://somehost.com/index.html");
console.println("Field value = " + this.rawValue);
// Verify a value actually got assigned
if( this.rawValue.length > 0)
xfa.form.topmostSubform.assignedTR.value = 1;
} else {
console.println("Not getting URL");
}
}
Note: formEmailed and assignedTR are global variables. The code is associated with the DocReady event.
I have been unable to locate any examples of filling a field in a from from a webpage.
Ultimately, I want the value from the webpage assigned to this.rawValue so that the value becomes part of the data in the form.
Suggestions?

How to save a completed form that was created as a dynamic form, with expandable files?
I have created a dynamic PDF form with expandable fields etc. As this is to be accessible for customers to completed, how can they save a completed copy on their own PC?
I tried it myself and I receive an error msg stating that I can only save a Blank Copy of this Form: Data typed into this form will not be saved. Adobe Reader can only save a blank copy of this form.
How can I create a dynamic form (with expandable fields/flowable layout etc) that allows the applicant to not only complete the form but also, to save a completed copy?

Change Fill Color Based On Value
I have found several good examples on how to modify the color of a field based on a value but am not having luck implementing. My form is an evaluation with 3 sections of test scores, the total of all 3 could have a max value of 100. Sections 1 & 2 are auto calculated, and section 3 is a value the user will input based on their review of all comments, scores, etc. The final score has a rating, Outstanding 90-100, Satisfactory 70 - 89, and Unsatisfactory <=70. Right now I'm not so much concerned about the color numbers, but I'm not able to get the colors to change at all. Because this field is calculated based on sections 1-3, I put the code on its change event. Once the user enters the final manual score in section 3, the value automatically changes. I've also tried the exit event of the section 3 manual score, and obviously do not have either the code or where to place it right. Below is the code I'm using, and would appreciate any help. If I can learn how to do the 90-100, hopefully I can apply same method, different color to 70-89 and under 70. What am I doing wrong? Thank you.
form1.#subform[0].OverallSafetyPerformance::change - (JavaScript, client)
if
this.rawValue <=100)&& this.rawValue >=90
{
this.fillColor

Livecycle Designer form distribution - bound fields blank
PDF forms created in Livecycle Designer have bindings of some form fields and an XML data source (Livecycle Preview looks great). When I make user-like data entry into the form as it is displayed in Lifecycle Preview, it behaves as I would expect at the user end after distribution . When submitted from Livecycle Preview it generates an email with an attached XML document representative of the entered data. My problem is that switching back to the Livecycle Design, saving the form, closing Livecycle, opening the form in Adobe Acrobat 8, enabling usage rights in Adobe Reader , and finally distributing the document, it arrives at the user end and is displayed as it is in Livecycle Design View (None of the bound fields are visible and the flowable form is not "flowed". I looks exactly like the Licecycle Design View.

Completed PDF returned blank? Form not filled out using MAC.
We have created a number of forms in LiveCycle. The submit button returns the form as a PDF and usage rights are enabled. They have been working well for a couple of years. We did encounter the issue of forms being returned blank when completed using a MAC in the past, but that problem was solved with a provided script.
Just recently another form was received blank, however in this case, the recipient was not using a MAC to complete the form. The form looks fine at their end and they have tried twice to submit the form with the same result. Any ideas as to what could be causing this problem?
Many Thanks.

Auto fill same fields in multiple different pdf forms?

In this case I have approximately separate files to autofill. The forms are all different however, they have the same two or three fields. Any ideas?
I have been searching the internet for ideas or methods and haven't found a single solution yet.

Can users insert hyperlinks into text fields?
LC ES2 9.0.0
I'd like end users of pdf forms to be able to insert working hyperlinks into text fields. Can this be done? I tried to create a text field in a form, but the hyperlink only reads as text and not as an active link. Is there a setting, or special type of field somewhere, either in LC ES or in Acrobat Reader to turn on so this is possible?

xfdf supporting java library for xfa form provided by Adobe ?
I had been working to find that how we can handle the newer xfdf format and explored many pdf libraries including Apache PDFBox and iTtext.
While exploring I found that the underlying architecture for the pdf itself could be either Xfa (composed in livecyle designer) or Acroform(composed in acrobat tool). The forms available with us are third party provided form and are Xfa forms.
Acroforms are properly supported in all these libraries but I see very less support for Xfa.
Is there any java liberaries provided by Adobe to work with xfdf format in Xfa Forms ?
I heard about LiveCycle ES3 server and was wondering if it could be of any use in my scenario. Can some one explain how to use jar files in standalone application . I explored the livecycle forms api but could not figure out how it may be used ?
We are a potential buyer for this product if it works. Please also provide the contact details to get more information about the product features and licencing.

Prevent PDF form designed in LiveCycle from opening as read only for users
I have designed a dynamic form in Livecycle ES2.
When I distribute the form to my test users, they get this info message: 'The file you have opened complies with the PDF/A standard and has been opened read-only to prevent modification.' Hence they cannot fill-out my form.
I am fully aware they could solve this by clicking Edit > Preferences > Documents > View documents in PDF/A mode: Never.
However, I do not want my end users to have to do that, given that they won't have much experience with Adobe Acrobat (Reader or Pro).
Is there a way to prevent the form being PDF/A standard when it is distributed?
I have already tried using Preflight in Acrobat Pro X, and clicking 'Remove PDF/A information.' That didn't work; I got this message: 'Preflight is unable to perform any fixups on this document as its author did not grant the necessary permissions.' I assume I get that error because the form was created in LiveCycle. I am the document author and I didn't set restrictions.
Any help will be very appreciated.
Thanks,
Tim
