Download the installer from Service Marketplace (http://service.sap/com/swdc). Use the search screen to search for Adobe LifeCycle Designer. You will get a compressed file with a .zip extension. Unzip that into a folder and you will find a exe called SapAldSetup.exe Double click it and the rest is cake walk.
Thanks,

How to check Adobe Live Cycle Designer version in ABAP Workbench ?

Hi,
Please advise how to check Adobe Live Cycle Designer version in ABAP Workbench ? Currently i am using NW 7.0 SP18 (ABA,BASIS).
Thank You and Best Regards
Fernand Lesmana

There are 3 ways you can check which version of ALD you have installed on your machine.
1. Go to transaction SFP (Forms Builder) transaction and enter a form name. Select Layout and it should open Adobe LiveCycle Designer. From ALD select Help --> About section and it should give you version details.
2. Go to SE80 and open an Interactive form application. Select the InteractiveFormUI element and click edit. This will open the ALD. From ALD select Help --> About section and it should give you version details.
3. A more simpler way is just go to C:\Program Files\Adobe on your machine and there should be Designer folder there for e.g. Designer 7.1 / Designer 8.0 / Designer 8.1

How to invoke adobe life cycle webservice using c++ (how to pass blob structure as argument)

We already wrote sample code (.NET C#) to access livecycle webservice(this convert the input file into pdf file) using below link from adobe
http://livedocs.adobe.com/livecycle/8.2/programLC/programmer/help/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/ht ml/wwhelp.htm?context=sdkHelp&file=000088.html
We want to write c++ client to invoke adobe life cycle webservice. I have sample code to invoke the given webservice using plain c++ but I am stuck up with 'how to pass BLOB structure as argument to CreatePDF() method' and
plus 'how to get ouput as mapItem[]' . Is the code to convert to pdf works fine with .NET and java only? Not with c++ or VB?

In this case the LiveCycle services are exposed as web services that can be consumed by any application language that can interact with web services. While the sample published are for c# and Java there is no reason that other web service aware languages (C++, Perl, etc) wouldn't work.
I'm not a Microsoft C++ expert, but as far as I understand all you need to do is create a web reference and then have your C++ classes interact via the generated proxy classes. The syntax will be different, but the concept is the same

How to integrate Adobe Live cycle designer to ABAP workbench --urgent

Hi All ,

I am currently getting a error sapofficeintegration trace 141 .. I have not configured ADS is this because of this .

Hi Abhilash,
"Server: SAP Web AS 6.40 Java (for all scenarios), SAP Web AS 6.40 ABAP (if you are looking at high-volume print scenarios), Adobe document services (run-time component), Adobe Credential (for creating interactive PDF forms)
Frontend: SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio with Adobe LiveCycle Designer (for Web Dynpro for Java development) and/or SAP GUI 6.40 with Adobe LiveCycle Designer (or 6.20 - for developing in SAP Web AS 6.40 ABAP), Active Component Framework (for filling interactive forms in a Web Dynpro application), Adobe Reader 6.0.2 or higher (on the frontend PC)" - from <b><a href="https://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/2a8a0a37-0301-0010-f794-aecd1bb426e0#q-4">INteractive Forms FAQ</a></b>
I will suggest you to have Adobe Reader >7
SAP GUI with patchlevel >18.
ADLCD >= 7.
Even you dont have ADS you must be able to see ADLCD in SFP. but you wont be able to activate ya get the output.
if you have properly copied the ADLCD seperatley into the Adobe Folder. while clicking the layout tab. open the ADLCD seperately. see if it gets opened.
or design it in ADLCD and import and export the xdp through fb_xdp_down and fb_xdp_up transactions.
Hope these helps. do update and alos search in the Interactive Forms home page as well as the Forum to get the details. there are already many posts related to it.
Thanks and Regards,
Anto.

Configuring adobe live cycle designer in netweaver developer studio

Hi,
I installed Adobe Life Cycle designer 7.1 on Studio for NW04S SP9 , I open up the interactive forms ui element .
Then I opened the library pallete on the studio, but I dont find the webdynpro tab.
What should I do.
Thanks,
Harish

Hi Amol,
I have done this but to no avail.
I picked the prerequisites from help.sap.com
Let me know what I have missed:
<b>You have installed the SAP NetWeaver 4.0 Developer Workplace. You must also have Acrobat Reader 7.0 or a full version of Adobe Acrobat 7.0 if you want to use the InteractiveForm UI element. In addition, the Adobe component of the SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio must be installed as this component is not installed in the standard version. However, it is very easy to install it if you want to use interactive PDF forms.</b>
The above is the prerequisite in help.sap.com
What I have done is
1. Downloaded Netweaver Developer Studio NW04S SP9 , from service.sap.com
2. Downloaded Adobe Life Cycle designer 7.1 from service.sap.com
3. I run the aldsetup.exe
Let me know what else needs to be done
Thanks,

How to open multiple instance of Adobe Live Cycle Designer ES 8.2

Hi,
How do I open multiple instance of Adobe Live Cycle Designer ES 8.2. I have two forms and I need to compare them. Another situation is I want to correct/copy the contents by keeping the old and new one under the view simultaneously. I also want to take advantage of multiple monitors
The MDI style windows with Ctl+Tab to switch between documents is not helping me in the context explained above
adobe Acrobat work on multi instance if I type acrobat.exe /n;
but if I type "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Designer 8.2\FormDesigner.exe" /n;, its just opening the existing livecycle instance
please help

I don't think you can run two instances.
But you can stretch the main application window across both monitors and tile the two documents inside the main window.
