Adobe Forms help needed

I've created a form in Adobe Acrobat 7.0. However, when the
Adobe reader users fill in the form they are unable to save the
data filled form. Can I change my settings in the form so that the
Adobe Reader users can fill out and save the form or do I need to
purchase/use the LifeCycle application?

Thank you for your response. These forums are specific to the

New to Adobe Forms and need help with Submit Email button

I am new to Adobe Forms in Windows. I created a form with a submit email button. When users try to click the button, the message is operation cannot be completed. My test user has Adobe Reader 9 installed. I'm at a loss as to how to resolve the issue. Please assist. TIA!

Three different aspects
1. Set the form up to submit the data (XML or FDF), not the full PDF. You can import the data to the PDF on your end.
2. You can turn on Extended Reader Rights, but then limit the use/users to 500 by the EULA. The applicability of this option depends on your intended application. In a small office, it would be fine. For general web use you would likely exceed the limit and be in violation of the EULA.
3. There may be an e-mail problem, one reason that e-mail is not recommended for form submission (even if the manual discusses it). Again, in a controlled environment like an office it will probably work fine, but in a web setup it is best to use a web script. There are 2 problems with e-mail that both depend on the client system (YOU have no control, but will be blamed in any case). First, the client machine has to be set up as an active MAPI client. Many folks do not have this on. Second, some e-mail clients treat PDFs like text and the result is a corrupt e-mail submission, even if it makes to you.
If you have the possibility of web submission, do it. I suggest only having the form data submitted and not the form.

How to create a Webservice for Adobe Form(I need Coding)?

Hi,
I need coding for Webservice inorder to define the context structure for Adobe Form.
In AdobeForm:
1) I create a dataconnection and while creating it i need to give WSDL Url.
2) I have created it.
3) But iam not getting the Context structure in the Dataview.
For this wht coding i need to write in WSDL File?
Any Help is Highly aprreciated with Points.
Very urgent requirement?

Hi,
I'm not exactly sure what your problem is.
A description on how to call web services can be found in my blog:
/people/juergen.hauser2/blog/2008/02/25/using-web-services-with-sap-interactive-forms-by-adobe-overview-tips
If you are facing an issue with what is displayed in the data view for the WSDL data connection (i.e you are missing nodes) you could try to use Designer 8.0 instead since it cotains bug fixes in that area.

Hi All Unable to activate the adobe form help me in solving this

Hi All,
I very new to adobe forms. I was trying to create a simple adobe form and was unable to activate the form the error which it displays as>
Invalid HTTP connection :ADS Can anyone help me what should be done to activate it ....
Regards,

Seems like there is a problem in configuring your ADS RFC connection.
Go the transaction SM59 ( Maintain RFC connection ) there search for RFC Destination ADS of type G and test it.
If it doesn't works fine then report to your IT guy.

Product Specific Form - Help Needed

I have a client who will be selling firearms and ammunition on a hunting site, along with other hunting products.
I need to have a form specific for firearms and ammunition products that will be required to be filled out before that product firearm and or ammunition can be added to the cart. The laws in Canada are very strict about purchases of such product on the internet.
How do I do this or is it even possible to have a form specific to these products pop up when add to cart is clicked?
Thanks in advance

Hello river east,
I'm just spitballing here, but here is one option for this to work.
Basically you would create a secure zone and if the user isn't signed in they wouldn't see the Add to Cart button.
The js would look like this - http://jsfiddle.net/chaddidthis/uDmXj/1/
As a part of signing up for the secure zone they have to accept the gun and ammo purchasing terms. You could have the link to the form on the large product page, sends them to either log in or sign up via the form they need to fill out. After then fill out the form they are sent back a page sending them back into the large product view they were on, and since they are signed in now the product will be able to add to cart.
Maybe this will spark others to add on to this, but that is pretty much the only way I could think to accomplish the desired results.
Hope it helps,

Basic form help needed

I am new to Dreamweaver 8 (but have worked with simple html a
quite a bit) and am working on building a, hopefully, simple
prototype for a project. What I need to do is collect user-entered
text and user-selected dropdown box data on one page and send it to
another for presentation there. After looking at the Help screens,
I looked at using Session variables and it seems that is the best
way to pass the data. Where I am stuck is in the (from Help
Contents) Making Pages Dynamic - Creating Forms - Creating HTML
forms help. They first say to, in step 2, Select Insert > Form
(which doesn't do anything - you have to click another option,
which I figured meant Form again). Then, in step 3, they say to
"Specify the page or script that will process the form data." by
selecting the file in the Action box in Properties. I don't have a
file to "process the form data" and don't really know what they are
talking about. Help!
I originally (before I reverted to using Help) set it up with
Insert->Form->Text Field text entry boxes, figuring this was
a Form field that could be captured and passed on. Right? Wrong? I
guess I thought the method would be to define a variable name
associated with a text input field in one page, then pass it with
the value to the next page. That is pretty much what it seems
Session variables do (?), which I discovered when I started looking
at Help.
So, was I on the right track for a simple implementation and
missed the way to capture and transmit the data, or do I need to
use the Forms->Forms option? If the former, how do I define the
variable names? If the later...well, I am real confused then. :-)
Thanks for your help.
(btw, we do have training material coming - went with
Dreamweaver for Dummies, Peachpit Macromedia Dreamweaver 8 Hands-On
Training "dead tree media" and TechRepublic Fast Track Dreamweaver
8 CBT. Any opinions on those?)

Session variables as the name suggests are created when a
user starts a session and last till the session is open. You form
doesn't really need session variables unless you are carrying form
data from one page to another and need to keep it associated with
that specific user such as in shopping cart applications.
I have never used the dreamweaver insert form, so can't help
you there. why not code the form yourself, especially since you
have been using html

Urgent Form Help Needed

I am trying to fill out a pdf form created by the Government of Canada and when I enter text in to the one of the text fields it does not keep the text there the text field merges with the box above. The form is available here: http://www.international.gc.ca/development-developpement/assets/pdfs/partners-partenaires/ calls-appels/iyip-psij-form-2014-eng.pdf . The fields I am having the problem with is 1.1 Internship Details which when I put in the answer (1200 words) it half merges with the text box above 1.0 Rationale for Initiative.
I have downloaded a number of versions of the file (on a number of pcs) and they all have the same problem. There are problems downloading the form in Chrome and some of the other web browsers but the newest version of IE works. I need to know if I am doing something wrong or if there is a problem with the form itself. I'm using Adobe Reader XI to fill the form and it was created using LiveCycle Forms 9.0. The creator of the form is highly unlikely to offer any assistance unless I can prove the problem is on their end. This is an RFP due tomorrow and my job kinda depends on it. HELP!

Hi Erin,
I've downloaded the form and tried to fill it in myself. I'm able to paste in 700 words (just under 4000 characters) without issue, but anything above that produces the error that you describe. So, it seems to me that the form designer may have imposed a limit on how many characters can be entered into that form field.
I hope that helps....
Best,
Sara

Forms help needed

I have several forms on my website and I need each to send
the form to two email address, and also send back an auto response
when email is sent out. Also after submit button it says your
request has been submitted and then after about 8 seconds it takes
them back to the home page.
How do I do this? I have the forms done but need help with
the rest above (two emails,auto respond,ect.)
Thanks

There are only two ways to process form data -
1. Use mailto:[email protected] as the action of the form
2. Use a server-side scripting method to a) harvest the
form's data, b)
process it in some manner, e.g., enter it into a database, c)
formulate and
send an email to one or more email recipients, and d)
redirect the visitor
to some ending page
Method 1 is quite simple, and is also the least reliable. It
depends both
on your visitor having an email client already installed on
their computer -
this eliminates public computers, or home users without email
clients
installed (more and more it seems) - and on the installed
email client
responding to
the mailto call. It is not possible to use this method *and*
send the
visitor to a
thank you page as well.
Method 2a is the preferred method, since it eliminates the
problems of
method
1, but it means that you have to grapple with
server-scripting somehow (ASP,
CF, PHP, perl, etc.).
Method 2b would be to use some third-party form processing,
like
http://www.bebosoft.com/products/formstogo/.
You would have to decide which of these methods is best for
your needs,
but if it's Method 2a, then start by asking your host what
they provide for
form
processing. If it's 2b, then read their FAQ/instructions
carefully.

Audio Problems in Adobe Presenter: Help Needed Urgently!!

I am using trial versions of Adobe Presenter 7 and Adobe Connect 8.
I created a presentation in in Powerpoint 2002 and published through Adobe Presenter to Adobe Connect Pro. This presentation has voice over recorded through the Adobe Presenter "record audio" option.
In Adobe Connect Pro, I created a meeting and shared the above mentioned presentation through the "Share Document" option in Connect Pro.
Now, when I play the presentation in this Adobe Connect Meeting, I am not getting any audio that was recorded in Adobe Presenter. Whereas if I play the published presentation directly it plays the recorded audio.
Can anyone help me on this?
1. Are there any settings to be done in Powerpoint or Adobe Presenter or Connect pro?
2. Is it the problem of Trial Account or something like that?
Please let me know the solution. Need to work on this ASAP!!!
Thanks in Advance,
Yogini

This is a weird one. If you created a prezo with audio and published it to AC (Adobe Connect) and everything worked fine on your desktop then it should work fine in AC i.e. there are no other settings required on AC's side, it should just play.
As I am typing this I thought of similar audio problems that we have experienced in the past. A big one would be where another user created a PPT on their laptops and handed it to us. When testing the audio did not work. Reason being is that not all the files were coppied over BUT I must accept that this is not your problem as it definately worked on your PC before you published it to AC.
Wait there is one setting in the publish settings. In the output options tick "Upload source presentation with assests", then tick audio.
I cannot think of anything else. There is a man called Heyward Drummond on the Adobe Connect General forum, who is a real master at answering queries like this. Why not post your query there and see if he comes up with an answer?

UCM Web Form, help needed

Hi,
I just have started working on Oracle UCM. I am majorly stuck with web form (HCSF).
Below is the form code,
<form name="CommentsPageForm" method="POST" action="">
          <input type=hidden name="IdcService" value="SUBMIT_HTML_FORM">
          <input type=hidden name="dID" value="">
          <input type="hidden" name="RevisionSelectionMethod" value="Latest">
          <input type=hidden name="FormDocTitleScript" value="">
          <input type="hidden" name="RedirectURL" value="?IdcService=GET_FILE&dDocName=&Rendition=Web&RevisionSelectionMethod=Latest">

</form>
If I keep the dID input field then it throws an error message like following
Content Server Request Failed
Unable to submit HTML form. The HTML form is not the latest revision.
If I remove the dID input field then it throws an error message like following
Unable to execute service (null) and function computeDocID.
(System Error: Either dID must be specified or RevisionSelectionMethod must not force the choice of a dID.)
I have tried to remove and add other input fields but nothing has worked.
Please help me out with this. Please point out where I made the mistake. I copied
codepieces from Bex Huff's book, that too had same error.
Regards
Udita

hi All,
I'm facing the same issue, I have a soap request which will update the metadata field on the service call.
The request url is coded as
var requestUrl = httpCgiPath + "?IdcService=UPDATE_DOCINFO" + "&dID=" + datafileID +"&dDocName=" + datafileDocName + "&xComments=" + inputComments.value + "&dDocTitle=" + inputTitle.value + &idcToken=#active.IdcToken" + "&IsSoap=1";
When I fetch the dynamic url and tried in browser then I get following error:
Content Server Request Failed
Unable to update the field. The authorization token is invalid. It has either expired or is not appropriate for the current request.
You may need to reload an earlier page in order to proceed.
See I have added idcToken as you guys suggested still token issue :(
Any pointer for this issue will be helpful.
Thanks

Submitted Form Help Needed

Hi there,
I have created a form in Adobe LiveCycle Designer 7.0 so that clients can fill in their answers and send back. I included the Submit button, however when I did a trial run with the form, it returned in .xml format which wont open in Internet Explorer. Can anyone guide me on how I can have the submitted forms returned in PDF form or if I need to do something with Internet Explorer to be able to access the .xml docs?
Thank you!
Amy

If you want to use the .xml file, open the original pdf and import the file in to it then save under another name.
You CAN enable the file so that people using Reader can fill it out, save it then email the entire form back to you but there are limts to it's use. You can either send the form to 500 people and collect an unlimited amount of responses or you can send it to an unlimited amount of people and collect 500 responses. Anything over that amount will be in violation of your license.
To enable the file in Acrobat, you would find the option under Advanced>Enable usage rights in Adobe Reader (at least that's the verbiage in Acrobat 8 Pro). I'm not sure exactly where that option is in LiveCycle Designer but it's probably similar.

Form help needed- creating a PRIORITY FIELD

I cannot figure this out as i have looked all over the
internet to no avail.
I have a 30 question coldfusion flash form.
I would like the user to select their top eight questions by
having a drop menu labeled 1 thru 8 beside each question.
The priority number can only be chosen once.

Hi Paul,
I presume that you are using the desktop version of Acrobat Pro to author the form.
I will move this discussion to the PDF Forms forum so that the experts in the forum can answer your question.
Please note that the Reader/Acrobat DC mobile apps (for iOS, Android, Windows Phone, etc.) have limited JavaScript support.
JavaScript for Reader Mobile API Reference (iOS)
You may be able to make the form work as you want in the desktop version of Adobe Reader/Acrobat Reader DC. However, some functionality (e.g adding a sequence number to each PDF) will not work in the mobile apps due to the limited JavaScript support. Sorry for the inconvenience.
