How do you type in Adobe forms

How do you type in Adobe forms without converting them.
Several times I was on an Adobe page where one could click on a tab to do just that and now I cannot remember how I got there.
Please help if you can.

David,
Thank you so very much for your timely reply.
I have Adobe Acrobat installed on all six of my offices computers and found it very simple to do as you instructed.
Thank you once again.

How do you type on a form in Adobe reader

Could you describe what you are trying to do? Are you trying to fill in form fields?
When you open your PDF form in Reader, do you see light blue highlighting over form fields like this?

How do you type directly on a document in Adobe 10? I used to use the typewriter in Adobe 8

How do you type directly on a document in Adobe X? I used to use the typewriter function in Adobe 8, but I don't see that in Adobe X.

It's now called "Add or edit text box".

Need to configure output type for adobe form

Hello All,
I need to configure output type for Adobe Form thru NACE. What would be print program and how do I call my form from that program? and, what would be the FORM routine for that form in NACE?
I'm little confused, Pls I need your help.
Thanks in advance,
Chandra

Hi,
Just before few weeks we did this task.
Say for example if you want to print PO details through ADOBE form instead of normal sapscript layout or standard MEDRUCK, you can follow the following steps.
1. Design the form in SFP tcode, by passing the necessary inputs through form interface.
2. Then use tcode tcode NACE and select EF as application and click output types button on the application tool bar. Select NEU output type and double click processing routines on left side.
3. Then, in the right side of the screen we can see the calling program and the form (may be sapscript or smartform) whatever used.
4. For form names we have two options in NACE tcode.
One is Form and the otherone is PDF/Smartform Form. If you are using adobe form give your form name under PDF/Smartform and also select PDF under the type option in the same screen.
This worked perfectly for us. But pass the required parameters to the form from the routine used in standard program.
If any queries please post it.

How can i find the adobe form translations

Hi Friends,
how can i find the adobe form translations?
i mean i want to know in how many languages my adobe form has been translated?
is their any report or is their any technique to find the translations........................
Thanks,
Harish.K

Hello Harish,
To find the translation of Adobe form is nothing but to find the labels or texts used in this adobe form in various languages. This will give you an idea on how many languages your adobe form has been translated.
So to find the translations in different languages, you have to go to Context node of the Adobe form. Then go through the text nodes which are used as labels. These will be normally stored as Standard texts in SO10.
For example. Take the text name of any one text node.
1) Go to SE38.
2) Type program RSTXTRAN.
3) Let the Text key - object be TEXT.
4) Then enter this text name in the field Text key - name. I have put the sample standard text ZTEST_ADOBE as shown below.
5) Let the Text key - ID be ST.
6) In Text key - language, Enter * (i.e enter the Asterisk) because you want to find out all the languages.
The screen parameters will be as shown below.
7) Now Execute this report.
8) It will show all the various languages in which this particular standard text is used which is nothing but the Adobe form is being used in these many languages. For example, the standard text ZTEST_ADOBE is used in 3 languages, English, German and Spanish as shown below. It will look as shown below.
Note: This will give you the more or less the overall idea of the form that has been used in these many languages. But also make sure the standard text with particular language is also linked with the Transport Request. Because there are chances that the text was created in a particular language but was never used.

How can I save filled Adobe Form?

Hallo experts,
I use Adobe Forms in my Webdypro application.
In Form setPDFSourse set dynamically (read from SAP as byte[]) , I do not know the Context.
How can I save filled Adobe Form, because I must show the Form by next Step in anothe window?
Thank you very much!

This sounds to me like a client-side problem whith adobe reader plugin in your browser. What is your reader version?
You can try the following to check if there is any content in the byte[]:
String s = wdContext.currentContextElement().getPdfData().length + "";
byte[] test = s.getBytes();
final IWDCachedWebResource resource =
               WDWebResource.getWebResource(
                    test,
                    WDWebResourceType.TXT);
try {
     final IWDWindow window =
     wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createExternalWindow(
          resource.getAbsoluteURL(),
          "Window title",
          false);
     window.open();
} catch (Exception e) {
     wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportException(
     new WDNonFatalException(e),
     false);

How do you add the Adobe Add-In into Visio 2013?

I have used Adobe with Visio and created PDFs from older versions of Visio 2010 that have the layers in the PDF. I am unable to do this with Visio 2013. Can Adobe Acrobat XI Pro support layers for Visio 2013? how do you add the Adobe Add-In into Visio 2013?

Sabian,
My version of Visio 2013 is 64bit, that because my PC and most of the software is 64bit. When I try to install the add-in for Visio it had error message of not being compatible. I try your "Compatible web browers and PDFMaker applicatios" and notice that Visio 2013 64bit in not listed.
When I try Adobe Acrobat support they told me they don't support Visio 2013 64bit. They didn't say if or when they were going to support Visio 2013 64bit. They suggested I use the Acrobat community forum on "Acrobat Feature Requests" and request the add-in for Visio 2013 64bit. I am not happy with this.
Do you know of any third party PDF that supports layers for Visio 2013 64bit?

How do you fill in a form that was saved as a template? When I try, the "template" shifts, which is not how a template should work!

How do you fill in a form that was saved as a template? When I try, the "template" shifts, which is not how a template should work!
Templates, as I understand them, are fixed; you can "fill them in" without shifting them. Yet, I've saved doc as a template AND it shifts. Argh!

Thanks for your response.
I've managed to fix it but I wouldn't recommend the following as I'm sure its unsupported and I'll probably have problems down the line
On the host
* mv /etc/zones /etc/zones.bak
* reboot single user
* apply kernel patch (the one that ultimately I had to get on and which was giving pre-req dependency errors when running zones)
* create a new zone now that host system is all up to date
* Copy the operating system directories of the new zone (the one that's all patched) over the troublesome zone (the one that can't take the patch). Take backups first
* cd /zones/new-zone/root
* find sbin -print | cpio -pudm /zones/bad-zone/root
* find usr -print | cpio -pudm /zones/bad-zone/root
* find lib -print | cpio -pudm /zones/bad-zone/root
* cd /zones/new-zone/root/var
* find sadm -print | cpio -pudm /zones/bad-zone/root/sadm (this copies patches and pkgs directories and I'm sure a lot of other stuff that I didn't want)
* mv /etc/zones.bak /etc/zones
* reboot host
* boot the old zone up. It should now have up to date patches
I'm sure there are real no-no's in taking this approach but it seems to have worked for me. I'll update if I find there are some horrors down the line

Hi,
OK. Following instructions, I've uninstalled the old Flash Player and installed the right one, and videos are now playing. Thanks for pointing me to the other posts on this site. YouTube and other videos are now playing
Some of the videos still play jerkily (they don't stream evenly). A few stream evenly once they've been allowed to buffer fully. (I think I'm using these terrms correctly.) Is this solely caused by low bandwidth, or is there something—an adjustment of some kind—that I can do with Flash Player to have online videos stream evenly, even from the moment I start them?
As I mentioned, to bypass this uneven streaming while watching online, I download the videos and watch them usually using Quicktime Player 7.6.4. Still, they don't always play evenly, but for the most part do.
I've just tested bandwidth and I'm told:
5.63 Bbps Download speed

how do you open a adobe document that i did on photoshop cc on ios. i want to do this because i want to post this photo on instagram@

Ahh, you're likely right, station.
If that is the case, why even bother with iOS? Doesn't Instagram let you upload on a desktop computer?
@official_knicks: Use File > Save for Web to save your open document in a format Instagram accepts. (JPEG and PNG are the formats, I think.)
