Add Image to PDF interactive form

Hello again
I'm having some difficulties also with another aspect of interactive forms. I want to add an image in the created pdf, but the url is generated from SAP R3, so i have it in a node attribute outputed from a function model. I see a field URL in the Image Field provided, but can it be mapped to a context attribute ??
thank you in advance,
Nuno Santos

I tried different forms but the image is not appearing.
The node mapped in the interactiveForm is called AnualForm, the i have another node called Identification, and finally the attribute PHOTO (on caps, just like that).
So...    AnualForm->Identification->PHOTO
I allready tried entering $record.PHOTO
                                  $record.AnualForm.Identification.PHOTO
                                  $record.Identification.PHOTO
but none of these works. Am i missing something ?

How to: add images into an Interactive PDF

I was wondering if it was possible to add images into an interactive PDF once it has been sent to someone. The PDFs are forms that need to be filled by a client via their iPads using Adobe Expert, and they may need to occasionally attach images to the document and be able to edit these images (i.e. circle parts of the image to highlight them) then send these PDF's back to myself.
Is there a way this can be done?
Thanks

There is no program on the iPad called Adobe Expert. I think you mean Adobe Reader.
Adobe Reader lets you fill in forms but not to attach images. If you wish to make a request of the Adobe Reader product manager, you can post on the Adobe Reader for iOS forum here:

PDF interactive form font issue

When I export my InDesign doc to a pdf interactive form, some of my fonts get bolded. This does not occur when saving as a pdf print doc. How do I create an interactive pdf without the text becoming bolded?

The bolded text appears show up only on text-only pages. The text on pages with tables and images remain unbolded. Any ideas why this may be happening?

How to add Images and PDFs in MDM iView

Hello!
We use SAP Portal as interfase to access SAP MDM repository tables.We use MDM Record Set and MDM Item Detail iViews to display and operate with main table content.
There is a field in the qualified table, which is the lookup to the Images table. And the other field is the lookup to the PDFs table. Both fields are qualifiers.
In the main table there is a field, which is the lookup to the qualified table. When we try to add values to this field using Item Detail iView, we get a window, where we can fill all values of the qualified table, except Image field and PDF field - they are disabled. So, can we add Images and PDFs to the table using Item Datail iView? Or what is the other way to add them?
Thanks,
Vika

Urgent :how to edit a pdf (interactive form)

Dear Expert,
i have a web dynpro application where in need to increase the length of a table in pdf (interactive form ) how can i do this .

Yes, there are a number of things you can do. With JavaScript, you can show/hide fields, set fields to read-only, set the focus to a field (thus bypassing sections or pages), etc. So you can implement a type of skip logic, it's just not as easy to set up as with a form created in FormsCentral. Still, there are techniques you can use to simplify things, particularly using heirarchical field names which makes it easier to control a group a fields.
The following rudimentary sample demonstrates some of what's possible: https://workspaces.acrobat.com/?d=It35dD4zaX5QM--Pv36F-Q
Based on the selected item on the dropdown, the background changes and certain fields are activated. There are only two fields associated with a particular selection, but it could be as many as you want on as many pages as you want. You can implement a multisection form using a single PDF page this way.

Changing the default file name while saving the PDF interactive form

Hi All,
I am generating an Interactive PDF form using webdynpro, but when I try to save the PDF to my local machine the default file name comes as "unknown.pdf" so I have to manually go and enter the name before saving it.
Is there any way to change this default name so that I don't have to manually edit the file name each time when I want to save the generated PDF interactive form?
Please reply soon.
Thanks in advance!

I am running into the same issue. Setting the desname parameter (e.g. desname=temp.pdf) doesn't have any effect. Has anyone found a solution to this?
Thanks,
Brian

Add Subform dynamically,in Interactive form in WebDynpro

HI,
I an using NW2004s SP9 and have an Interactive form designed by Adobe Designer 7.1 from within the NetWeaver Developer Studio, with the following hierarchy of elements:
-form1(root)
--Button
--tmpForm (subform - Repeat subform for each data entry )
---ST (Text)
The Webdynpro application displays the Interactive PDF form with Reader Rights enabled by the Adobe Document Services.
On click of button, the following javascript is executed on client side:
var df = _tmpForm.addInstance(1);
df.ST.rawValue = "HI" ;
xfa.host.messageBox( "Instances" + tmpForm.all.length ) ;
On clicking the button, i get the number of the instances of the subform and the size increases on each click, but no element is added "visibly" to the pdf.
But when i try to do the same by saving the XDP file as Dynamic PDF form for Acrobat 8.0, and open it using Adobe Acrobat PRO 8.0, it works fine.
My question is,I s it not possible to add subforms dynamically in PDF's generated by Adobe Document Services with Reader Rights enabled?
Or, is there something that i am missing?
Please guide.
Thanks.
Regards,
Siddhartha

HI Dezpo,
Thanks a lot for replying.
I had checked the updated SAP Note 834573 -Interactive Forms based on Adobe software: Acrobat/Reader version, which states that:
For SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe, you require the following:
Adobe Acrobat as of Version 7.0.9
Adobe Reader as of Version 7.0.9
Important:
Note that you can only have limited use of Reader 8.0 for forms that, at runtime, are integrated in a WebDynpro application through the xACF technology (Active Components Framework). In this runtime environment, Reader 8.0 currently only supports static interactive forms. If you are using dynamic interactive PDF forms, we recommend that you use Reader 7.0.9. In the application, you can use parameters, or you can call methods, to determine whether you want to create a static or dynamic PDF form.
I tried with the reader versions - 7.0.7, 7.0.9 and 8.01, but it doesn't work for either of them.

We are in the process of developing an interactive form integrating Web Dynpro ABAP with Adobe forms.
As of now we are able to send the data to Adobe form from Web Dynpro.
But we are facing the following problem.
i) Unable to edit the form data for entering/changing the contents of the fields in PDF document, which is presented to user with a Web Dynpro application URL.

We are currently working on ZCI installation with SAP SP08, GUI patch level 20, Adobe Reader version 8.0
Please advise...

PDF Interactive Form

I'd like to know whichi program best suited for interactive PDF forms which can get its information from a SQL database.
For example on the form the line that state "Customer's Name" is written and that customer name can be drawn from a database whichi i'd link for the user to choose from.
If you do know whichi program best suited for what i need please state it and if possible state the guide that will help me link the interactive form to an existing database, preferably SQL.

To connect directly to a database from a PDF form, it would be easiest to create an XFA form using Adobe's LiveCycle Designer, which came with Acrobat Pro prior to Acrobat 11 and is currently available as a separate product. If you have more questions, the LiveCycle Designer forum is a good place to ask: http://forums.adobe.com/community/livecycle/livecycle_modules_and_development_tools/livecy cle_designer_es?view=all

Using WF_EXTSRV for changing PDF Interactive form

Hai,
I'am trying to use transaction WF_EXTSRV to generate a task which can be used within the UWL from the portal. The main purpose of this task is to show an exsisting PDF form in change mode. I allready found some nice information from SDN, but not enough to make it all work. I still have still these questions:
1) How must I setup the required fields within transaction WF_EXTSRV when I want to generate for example this url:
http://abc.abc.nl:51800/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/pcui_gp~isr/IsrForm?SCENARIO=SPEG&MODE=CHANGE&NOTIF_NO=000600000003
2) How must a then setup transaction SWFVISU? Which apllication and package name.
I hope some can help me.
Greetings,
Remco

Hi Patrick,
Let me see if I understand your query properly first. Your requirement is that you have a PDF file which is pretty much fixed.
Now you want to use the Template present in the PDF file to be shown to the user, but this should be pre-filled with data that you receive from a Web Service & RFC.
Now firstly I will mention the easy way, which would require you extract the PDF Template statically, I am not sure if the API has now been released to do that programatically.
Now, lets say you store it is some location the template file, you would also need to tweak the DataBinding properties in the Template to match to that of the Context Node you will use in the application.
Now in the ModifyView method you should get a reference to the Interactive form element, use the setTemplateSource method to refer to your template.
Now based on the response from your RFC/WebService create the appropriate attributes into the node, and your form should work fine.

Pavan

To print image in Non interactive form

I have a requirement where image file is attached to QM02 transaction, now i want to print the attached image on QM02 print output. I am planning to use Non interactive form method to print the form output.
Can anyone pls guide me how to insert/print image file which is attached at the transaction level.

Otto:
I followed the steps you have described in one of your earlier reply but I am unable to see the image on the non-interactive ADOBE form.
Here is what I did.
1) In the "Code Initialization" section of the form, I coded to get the SE78 stored image in to XSTRING field (by calling method cl_ssf_xsf_utilities=>get_bds_graphic_as_bmp)
2) I created the image field and bound it to the XSTRING field derived in step 1. And I check marked "embed image" in layout of the image field.
I also followed some other threads on this forum and tried to create a graphic node with a global field of mime type "BMP" and bound my XSTRING data onto it but to no avail.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Dynamic images in an interactive form

Hi all,
in adobe lifecycle designer I created a table that displays information of specific materials from mara. The table exists of four columns. Three of these columns display the material information (matnr, mtart, mbrsh) and one column should display a picture of the material.
In ABAP coding I inserted a "Selection Option" where the user can choose some materials he wants to display.
The pictures are imported into se78. In ABAP coding I use the method "cl_ssf_xsf_utilities=>get_bds_graphic_as_bmp" to get the necessary picture.
I also created a graphic node in context menu of the formular for data binding but the problem is that I only get the same picture for al materials displayed in the table.
I think that it is not working with the graphic node. But has anyone a solution for me?
Thanks alot in advance.
Best regards
Sven

Hi,
Yes it can be implemented by using scripts.
Here you can do the hide and visible things and once the field is binded in the interactive form that do not change.
We can utilize the context node elements only once we can put into interactiveform only . we can not use as dynamically as Context attributes.
What you are exactly looking for?
Thanks,
Lohi.

How to add image in pdf file

Hello everybody,
I need to place an image in pdf file programmatically on a specific location. Would you please help me what should I use to do this task?
Thanks.

You probably want to use a PDF library designed for the task (or a
stamping tool). Are you looking for recommendations for such a tool?
If so, what platform/environment/programming language?
Or, are you looking to do it by directly read/writing the PDF file?
