Acrobat Reader PPC 2 and submit by email

Hi,
I searched the forums before posting this question. I created a form with Live cycle Designer which had a submit by email button (with to address set). Running this form on a PDA (Acrobat Reader Pocket PC 2) is fine, however when I try to submit the form it pops up an empty email mail message (i.e. no to address or subject, but with attachment). Is there anyway to get it to at least populate the to address?

Don't use the regular "'submit by email button." If you use this button, you can only submit the data as XML. Instead, make your own button.
In the Object library under Standard objects, click and drag a plain button to your form. Change the Control Type to Submit. Now you should have a new tab called Submit with a "submit to URL" option. In that field type the return email address in the following format: mailto:[email protected] Toward the bottom of the same option, there is a field that says "submit" and the choice is XML data package. Change that to PDF. Then change the name of the button to "Submit by Email." Now when you preview your form and click the Submit by Email button, it should mail the completed form as a PDF instead of simply mailing the raw data.

I need help.
Have someone this problem?

Hi,
did you search the Mozilla forum for this issue? I don't think that the JDeveloper 11 forum is the right place to post this problem if it is an Adobe/Mozilla issue

Hyperlink that contains backslash is not working in Acrobat Reader 8 and 9

Hi,
Does anyone know why a hyperlink that contains backslash is not working in Acrobat reader 8 and 9?
I created a document in Indesign CS and it contains hyperlinks that open up files from network drive so they contain backslash (for example: c:\foder\forder\filename.jpg). All the hyperlinks work in Acrobat Reader 6 but not in Acrobat Reader 8 or 9.
Anybody could share the solution would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

Did you ever figure this out? I am also having problems with the "No Hand" javascript which turns off the (not very helpful) page-forward hand icon (a hand symbol with a down arrow) which confuses our users when in fullscreen mode. We create interactive PDFs and everything worked fine up to Acrobat X/Reader X. Now in XI it doesn't allow the internal link icon (pointing finger) nor weblink icon (pointing finger with W) to appear. It just remains a plain o’ hand icon no matter what you mouse over even though there are links present.

Acrobat Reader DC and BabylonRPI.api

The above mentioned Adobe Reader plug-in BabylonRPI.api worked in the Adobe Reader 11 without any flaws. After having replaced version 11 with the new Acrobat Reader DC and having placed the Babylon plug-in,too, the Babylon function is no longer started by the respective command. I suppose BabylonRPI.api needs an adaptation to the new version. Does anybody know more about this topic?

Meanwhile Babylon has answered acknowledging that the BabylonRPI.api does not work with the new Acrobat Reader DC. They say, they are working on their plug-in to get it compatible with the new Adobe Reader.
Further notice as soon as Babylon presents its adapted plug-in.

Can not accept license after installing Acrobat Reader 8 and removing 6

To whom it may concern,
after installing Acrobat Reader 8, removing Acrobat Reader 6, and starting Acrobat Reader 8 the license agreemnet window appeared as aspected. The problem is it displays everything as far as I can see correctly, but it is not working in any way. I have to close the windows by clicking on the white cross in the title bar. I then receive the message, that I did not accept the license and therefore Acrobat Reader will be closed. And that happens when I click ok.
Hopefully someone over here as a tip who I can proceed. Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Jochen

Dear Claudio and Shari,
Liam's suggestions have been of value for me. The Acrobat Reader is up and running.
Thank's!
@Shari
I'm using Firefox as well. An the tip and tool form Liam helped.
Just give it a try. The Explorer is used by Windows for more than a simple browser.

I installed the latest Acrobat Reader (11) and every time I try to do a Save As, it crashes the entire Adobe program closing all files. I tried uninstalling and re-installing and it still crashes.

I installed the latest Acrobat Reader (11) and every time I try to do a Save As, it crashes the entire Adobe program closing all files. I tried uninstalling and re-installing and it still crashes.

Hi Bryan ,
It happens when you save it as an Adobe PDF or a normal PDF?
Happens with all the files or any specific one?
What exact version of Acrobat are you using?
Try updating it to the latest one if it is an older one.
You may also want to uninstall and re install it to check.
Let us know how it goes.

Form designing for compatibility between Acrobat Reader 7 and Acrobat Professional

I have designed a Form using LiveCycle Designer 7.0. It contains a few subforms and lot of javascripting. One of the javascript logic I am using is to display a subform when a user clicks a radio button and hide it when the user clicks another radio button. The subform contains Text field, Numeric field, Rectangle, Line, Button. This worked well with Acrobat Reader 7.
After I installed Acrobat Professional 7, my form breaks. I did a quick test to see where it breaks and came out with the following conclusion.
1. If the subForm contains an Image, Line, Rectangle or Circle control, the subForm rendering throws error (Adobe Acrobat 7.0 has encountered a problem and needs to close) when I click on the radio button to display the subform.
2. If the subForm contains Text control, it is displayed even if subform is invisible.
3. If the subForm contains Checkbox, Radio, Dropdown list, List Box, Button, Submit By Email, Submit, Print Form, Reset Form; these controls are never displayed even if subform is visible.
Has anyone encountered a similar issue?

Hi Dave,
Thanks for the response.
I need some clarification. When you say 7.0.5 version, are you expecting 7.0.5 version of Reader or Professional?
Here's the steps I followed:
I originally had Adobe Designer version 7, 0, 041126, 0 and Acrobat Reader 7.0.5 and everything worked great.
Now I have uninstalled Designer and Reader and installed
Acrobat Professional Tryout. This installs Acrobat Professional version 7.0.0 and Adobe Designer version 7, 0, 041126, 0 (which is the same as above). Now the same forms which were working earlier are not working as expected.
Please note that I have NOT installed Acrobat Reader 7.0.5. How do I find out what version of Reader does Designer user for PDF preview?
If I separately download Acrobat Reader 7.0.5, how do I tell Designer to use that version for PDF preview?
Thanks,
Satish

Reader Extension and Submit Button

Hi,
I reader extended a form with the Reader extension web application.
The issue is when I start the process in the workspace and my form is open, the submit is not embed anymoe in the workspace.
How could I fix that ?

When a PDF Form is shown in Workspace, the LC server actually attempts to make a modification to the form (called "augmentation") in which a scripting bridge is added to the form. This happens inside the Render Service used to show the form. Workspace needs this to happen so that it can instruct Acrobat/Reader in the browser to hide the submit button, thus allowing the Workspace UI buttons to be used instead. I know that if the PDF Form is signed then LC will not attempt to make this modification in case it breaks the signature. This is what might be happening here because when you reader extend a PDF there is actually a signature applied.
If this is the cause I can think of two suggestions off hand:
- You might consider Reader Extending the Form on demand as part of your render service by uploading your Reader Extensions Credential (the p12 / .PFX file) to Trust Store and then using it with the Reader Extensions Service in a new version of your render service.
- You can use LC Designer to add the "Form Bridge" to your form before you reader extend it with the web application and place it in your repository.

Acrobat Reader 8 and 10 coexistence on Windows 7: How to choose the default version

My organisation has installed Acrobat 8 and then Acrobat 10 with the option to keep the version 8 installed. This works fine as we can start both versions independently (after making sure one or the other verion is not running).
One of the old application we use only works with acrobat reader 8 (the only reason why kept it!) but when I try to generate a PDF using PDF creator, the way the application works, acrobat reader X is called when it should be calling reader 8 (the app reads an ini file where the path to 8 is specified).
I found a workaround to make the app call the 8 without touching the file association (when you double click on a pdf, it is opened with reader X) but i am not sure it is "supported" :
in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\AcroRd32.exe i have changed the "default" value to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 8.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" and left the "Path" value set to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe"
Do you think this could be a correct solution to our problem so that we can make the changes to the app to work properly on X and get rid of reader 8?
any help would be appreciated!

And in addition to Julios advice (9.x is a great release also in my opinion): You should be aware that you have to upgrade in a couple of small steps so that the config can be migrated. I would first upgrade to the latest 8.0 release and then to the latest 8.2. That should go really smooth. The next upgrade to 8.4 will need many manual corrections for the NAT-migration as the automatic migration has never worked well for my ASAs and I have never heard that anyone was happy with the result of the automatic migration. After that, the last step to the latest v9 will again run quite smooth.
But as usual, read the release-notes to be aware of problems that are specific to your environment.

I'm trying to download the latest version of firefox. I get a pop up window that asks me what to open it with. I've tried adobe reader 9, acrobate reader 5, and real player. None work

OK, I'll take you through what happens. When I click download firefox 4 I get a pop up window that asks "what should Firefox do with this file?"
Below I have two choices:
_Open with (choose)
_Save File
So I go to choose and pick an application.
So I choose Acrobate Reader 5.0. Acrobate gives me a popup that says "Acrobat could not open firefox 4.0-4.dmg because it is either not a supported file type or because the fire has been corrupted....
So I try download again (I should point out that I am currently running Firefox 3.6.16) The popup that asks me to choose a file to open firefox 4.0.dmg pops up again.
So I choose Adobe Reader 9. Nothing happens. So I cancel.
So what application should I go to to open Firefox 4.0.dmg

Acrobat Reader Versions and saveAs, exportXFAdata Problems

We use generate Forms with Reader Extension Save enabled.
The forms are then opened within Acrobat Reader. In the onClose Event a Script called "saveXMLData" is called. This script is install in the javascript folder of the reader installation.
The script :
var saveXMLData = app.trustedFunction(function(doc)
     app.beginPriv();
     doc.saveAs({cPath:"/c/windows/temp/savedForm.pdf",
          bCopy: true,
          bPromptToOverwrite: false });
     doc.exportXFAData({
          cPath:"/c/windows/temp/savedForm.xml",
          bXDP:false
     app.endPriv();
     return;
Using Acrobat Reader 7, eveything worked fine.
Using Acrobat Reader 9 "saveAs" crashes the Application after the document is saved and the filled in Data is not saved.
Without the saveAs function, at least the export File is generate but the data that where filled in are missing.
Using Acrobat Reader X "saveAs" crashes the Application as well. Leavin out the saveAs function, the export File is generated as expected. Thus the filled in data values are saved.
Using Acrobat X Pro everything works as with Acrobat Reader 7.
Our Problem is that the customer uses Acrobat Reader 9. Are there expected incompatibilities with the different versions. Does anybody know any workarounds, settings?
By the way disabling extended security does not help.
Thanks
Max

It cannot be a problem of the installation, because at least Windows 7
was a fresh install with nothing but Reader additionally installed.
By the way, what do you mean by "risky", I followed straight the
documentation from Adobe, where one is allowed to place function calls
requiring a privileged context.
Have you any better idea where to place the call to save? It must be
called automatically, when the User closes the window, no additional
interaction is possible.
One other thing is the call to exportXFAData, have you any idea why
there is a difference in behavior between reader version 7 / 10 and 9?
I wrote that in version 9 the user entered data is missing.

No, it doesn't work.
Sorry, I don't have any ideas except for trying to repair the installation
of Reader.
However, placing code in the WillClose event is considered risky and should
be avoided if there are alternatives available.

Acrobat Reader 8 and digital signatures

What are the limitations of Acrobat Reader 8 with respect to digital signatures? I have been trying to create a form, that can be distributed through e-mail and digitally signed by Acrobat Reader 8 users, and am getting unpredictable results. It seemed like these users were able to sign this document last week, but today are unable to. Is the digital signature feature entirely stable?
I have read through the documentation and it is vague at best and seems to blur the lines between Acrobat Reader and Professional.

>What are the limitations of Acrobat Reader 8 with respect to digital signatures?
Generally, it can't do them. (Adobe Reader, if I was being picky, the
name was changed after 5.0).
You CAN enable signing using a special function. However, you are
contractually limited by the EULA; to oversimplify, no more than 500
users per form, or uses per form.

Acrobat Reader XI and Outlook 2003

After upgrading the Acrobat Reader on our Citrix-Servers with Windows 2003 and Outlook 2003, it is not possible to send pdf from Acrobat Reader via E-Mail. When we select the function to send the document per mail (with the default mail programm), the focus switches to Outlook (when started), but no mail with the pdf-file as attachment is opened.
On a system with Outlook 2007, there are no problems.
Is Acrobat XI not compatible with Outlook 2003 anymore? Is it a problem only in combination with Windows 2003 or Citrix?
Is anybody able to get this to work in a similar environment?
Thanks for any help.
Rgds.
Stefan

This is a known issue with Outlook 2003 and will be fixed in the next patch.

Acrobat Reader DC and Adobe Acrobat XI

My PC automagically updated my Acrobat reader to the new piece of junk they call "Acrobat Reader DC"
It is absolutely useless!
It will not allow to keep the "tools" panel out of view - I have to get rid of it every time a view a document.
It does not allow me to use the installed features of the Adobe Acrobat XI I have installed.
It constantly asks my to sign up to the cloud to do anything Which I do NOT want at all PERIOD.
Then it took me over three hours to find a copy of the original Acrobat Reader 11 with updates to the version previous to this POS.
Is Adobe trying to get rid of customers and go out of business?

Hi Richard,
There are few workarounds here: how to get rid of the right side panel in adobe reader (Acrobat Reader)
to disable the tools pane.
Regarding prompt for cloud storage if you click on the 'x' button then it will not prompt again.
You can also turn off the following from the preferences:
Edit> Preferences> General>
Uncheck the following:
Show online storage when saving the files
Show online storage when opening the files
Show me messages when I launch Acrobat DC
