How to make Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2 file compatiable with Adobe Reader X

Adobe Reader X sporadically is unable to save or print a file created in Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make it compatiable/stable with reader X? We want to deploy reader X with Win7 32 bit

I am not aware of any issues in that area ...can you provide more information as to when it is happening?

Adobe Livecycle Designer 7.0 vs 7.1

Hi
I have two systems one with Adobe Livecycle Designer 7.0 and the other with 7.1
And I am working on the same form from both these systems. Should that be any cause for concern ?
What are the differences in the two releases that I should be aware of ?
Pushpraj

You´d better have all computers/ developers working with the same designer, but that is just a precaution, I have never experienced any serious problem when moving between versions.
By the way, if I could recommend you a GREAT improvement, please check the notes:
Note 1121176 - Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.0 - Installation
Note 1253121 - Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.0 - Patch
Note 1176858 - Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.1 Installation
and... install the 8.1 because it is a GREAT leap forward in a comfort for a developer. Please try and enjoy, that is my best advise you can get. Hopefully that will help you and please you, regards Otto

How to split a column in adobe livecycle design?

How does one split a column in adobe livecycle design. I have found that one can split a column after you have merged it. But I want to split two columns into four in the middle of a table. This can be done in Word. Is there a way even if one has to split each row? Does any one know? Like in the table below I would like to make Header 2 & Header 3, Rows 2 and 3 into 2 rows 4 columns.
Header 1
Header 2
Header 3
Header 4
Thanks
Sheila

If you want to have 1 column to be split in 4 columns, you can insert a table with 4 columns inside a column cell.. If you mean to add rows and you want to keep those 4 columns, you should add instances of the row where you inserted the table with 4 columns...
Hope this helps!

How to install fonts in Adobe Livecycle Designer

Hi All,
 I want to install new fonts in adobe LiveCycle designer.
 I installed this fonts in Control Panel >Fonts>File -->Install New Fonts and it is possible to see them in Livecycle Designer but when i preview the adobe print form this not work.

Adobe document services require access to fonts that are installed with the Font Manager Module. This module contains a number of Adobe bundled fonts installed in /usr/sap//j2ee/os_libs/adssap/FontManagerService/fonts/adobe.
You can also add fonts obtained from other vendors. The types of fonts you can add are OpenType® (.otf), TrueType® (.ttf), and PostScript® Type 1 (.pfb/.pfm).
So the question is how can i install new fonts so as to use in Adobe Forms?
I will appreciate any help and documentations about.
Thank you,
 Ari

Create a subdirectory called fonts below the
/usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/global/AdobeDocumentServices/FontManagerServicedirectory
Create a subdirectory called customer below the fonts directory created in the previous step
Copy your font file(s) into the customer directory
Restart the "Document Services Font Manager" for the changes to take effect.Use Visual Admin on the Adobe Document server
i. Expand "Server à Services "
ii. Restart the Document Services Font Manager
Also restart the application com.adobe/AdobeDocumentServices

How do I access LiveCycle Designer from my Adobe Acrobat X Pro?

 I am unable to access LifeCycle ES2 from my Adobe Acrobat X pro, even though I am supposed to have it as part of the software. I have tried Forms/Edit forms, and I have looked for it through all the menus. Several of the helps I have found for other things has me launch LifeCycle and operate from screens that LifeCycle designer provides.
 I am using Windows XP professional.
 I would appreciate all the help I can get on this.

How do I access LiveCycle Designer from my Adobe
Acrobat X Pro?
Re: How do I access LiveCycle Designer from my Adobe Acrobat X Pro?
created by TundraSteve in LiveCycle Designer - View the full discussion
There is a terminology issue here. From Acrobat Pro X you launch Designer
not LiveCycle ES2. LiveCycle is a server product.
When you install Acrobat you have the option to install or not install
Designer. Look in the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0
and check to see if there is a Designer 9.0 folder. When in Acrobat you
should be able to create a new form and it will prompt if you want to use
Designer. If all else fails you can always go into the Designer 9.0
folder and launch FormDesigner.exe

How to activate script debugging in Adobe Livecycle designer

Friends,
I would like to know how to activate script debugging in the Adobe Livecycle designer. I need to debug the scripts written in the script editor.
Thanks and Regards.

Syntax checking is available in designer from version 8.1 onwards.
If you want to enable in Adobe Reader then go to Edit --> Preferences --> JavaScript --> Enable the option Show console on Errors on messages.
Apart from it the alternative way to debug the scripts is to use xfa.host.messageBox and check the values.

How to configure Adobe LiveCycle designer on my SAP Server?

Dear friends.
I have installed SAP ECC 6.0 and Adobe LiveCycle designer ES 8.2 on my computer.
Now I want to use Adobe LiveCycle designer in SAP by TCODE:SFP.
Please tell me how to configure Adobe LiveCycle designer on my SAP Server in details.

Hi MSReddy,
You don't need to configure it on SAP server. It should be installed on you desktop only.
Install ADLC on your desktop and open SFP it should work. If its not showing you the layout it means you are using wrong version of ADLC. Use ADLC downloaded from SAP Service market place only.(service.sap.com), else it will create problems.

Problem with expanding textfield in Adobe LiveCycle Designer

I've got an urgent problem with Adobe LiveCycle Designer and I really could use some help. The problem is that I'm trying to get my textfield expandable, but whatever I try, it's not working. What I'm trying to get done is that you can fill in a textfield, and when there is more text than the size of the field, the textfield expands to make the text fit in the field.
I tried a whole lot of things:
placing the textfield in a subform
expand to fit (height)
allow multiple lines
allow page breaks
flowed/positioned
etc.
The strange thing is, that no matter what I try to adjust, I can't change anything in the pagination tab. Maybe that is the problem, but I don't know what to do, to change that.
In the examples of Adobe itself (Purchase Form) is an example of a textfield that sort of behaves as I want it to, BUT the problem is that that textfield in the subform has to be triggered to appear by a button (add comments) and that is what I don't want. I want the textfield to be visible from the beginning. But in that example you CAN see the pagination tab and make changes in it.
I searched a lot in the Adobe Helpfiles of Designer, and I even bought and read/studied the book 'Creating Dynamic Forms with Adobe LiveCycle Designer', but still I'm not able to get this done.
Is there anyone who can help me?
Thanks in advance,
Sterre

I am creating my first .pdf with no training. I first converted a word doc of our form into a .pdf. Modified everything and thought I was the "bomb" for figuring it out. Then I tried to use the form and where I had "allowed multiple lines" I realized that it would allow that but not display it or print it except for what was showing.
In researching for a solution, this site said to use "expand to fit". After much frustration I realized that this feature is only available if you created the form from scratch in adobe.
I have figured out, somewhat, how to create the form and get the field to move with the text but I need the entire form to adjust to the input. Can't have one specific field expand into the rest of the form.
I did some more research on this site, and it looks like the solution has something to do with 'subforms'. No idea what to do.
If anyone knows if there is a way to do this with a converted doc (since I already have that completed) I would GREATLY appreciate it. If it isn't possible, could someone walk me through how to do it or provide a reference for a "barney style" walk through?
Appreciate ANY assistance you can provide. THANKS! Guess I need to sign up for an Adobe Pro class. BTW I'm working on LiveCyle 8.0
