Adding comments to PDF in Adobe LiveCycle Workspace ES2

Is it possible to let Adobe LiveCycle Workspace ES2 users to add comments to a PDF document without having to download the document?
How?
I have been trying many different ways for the past several weeks, but couldn’t find a way.
I tried to bring the attachment into a document variable and then using it as the input document for an assign task operation, after reader extending (including online commenting) it in the process. Tried different kinds of PDFs, including documents created from Adobe Acrobat, Adobe LiveCycle designer, static forms, with or without input fields, etc. Nothing seems to work so far.
Any tips would be welcome.
Thanks.
Ali.

Hi $Nith$,
I tried the same procedure what you had explained here. But, I am unable to get the comments that entered while reviewing.
Here I am attaching my workflow.
Here I am entering comments in workspace for this document in reviewer stage. I want to send this comments along with document for next stage (Approval stage).
Thanking you in advance.

How to convert the Adobe 10 PDF to Adobe LiveCycle ES2 so that I can make the text boxes expandable?

When I convert the Adobe 10 PDF to Adobe LiveCycle ES2 it is a static document, thus not allowing me to make the text boxes expandable. How do I take a current Adobe 10 PDF with Text and convert it to Adobe LiveCycle ES2 so that I can make the text boxes expandable?

Hi Alan,
TextField objects can expand dynamically. There are a few things that you need to do:
1. The TextField object should be contained in a subform that is set to Content: Flowed. This isn't technically necessary, but if you have anything below the expanding text box and the subform is set to Positioned, the text will expand and overlay what's below.
2. On the Field tab of the text field's Object property tab, check the Allow Multiple Lines checkbox
3. On the Layout tab, check the Expand To Fit checkbox under Y:/Height
4. Set the PDF Render Format under Form Properties/Defaults to Dynamic XML Form. If you're previewing in Designer, don't forget to set the preview to Dynamic too.

Can I write XML PDF without Adobe LiveCycle ?

Hallo:-)
My firm have product to create blank /form/, which we save into our XML format. We want to "save as" forms into XML PDF format.
But only use XML not PDF into XDP format.
I read XML Forms Architecture (XFA)Specification Version 2.4 ...
Is there other resources and samples?
And Is it possible task?

I'm not sure that I understand your question. Are you asking whether Adobe Reader can open an XDP file and display it as a PDF even if there's no PDF packet in it? The short answer is no. You can convert an XDP to a PDF using Adobe LiveCycle Designer. If you want to convert to PDF at run time you need a server product - Adobe LiveCycle Forms.

Embed webquery in PDF using Adobe LiveCycle Designer

Dear BI Gurus,..Pls. help !!!!
We have NW2004s with Portal and ADS installed
Is it currently possible to embed BW objects like query results and Documents into PDF, may be using Adobe LiveCycle Designer to design a pixel-perfect layout?
So for e.g. an A4 size PDF would have several query results and may be also a document or a chart , and these objects can be manually arranged in A4 size layout.
Is there an option to achive this by some kind of webdynpro programming?
I would give best points to you !!
Thanks in advance

Kamakshi,
First, any extension fields added must be explicitly assigned to appear on the forms. Through Front-end Adaptation, this would be via the "Further Usage" link. Within the SDK, you'd right-click the XBO and select "Enhance Forms" (which would take you to the same screen as you'd end up at in through front-end").
You must select "Add Field and Edit..." to actually assign it to the Form Template schema.
Once this step is done, re-download the Form Template, and make sure to reload the Data Connection within LiveCycle. Through there, you should see your fields. You'll likely have to dig for them - they appear at the very end of the child elements.
Note that, while fields added through the front-end have a long string appended to the end (for example, it would appear as "ExtensionField_1234AISU897234HJA" if added via front-end adaptation), the fields added via the SDK do NOT have the suffix (you'll be looking for an element with JUST the field name, i.e. "ExtensionField")

Printing PDF via Adobe livecycle from R/3 ECC to local printer

Hi,
I am working on an Adobe Form via SFP transaction on ECC 5.0 and an Adobe Livecycle 7.1. I can create PDFs, and send them to spool through a LPDF printer defined in SPAD as a PDF1 type. This is ok to get PDF in spool but I want to send these PDF to my local windows printer through SAPLPD.
I get an error message in SAPLPD :
Job 0009Jjkn.TD1 (raw) started on printer SKDFMLDSF
(11:06:48) Error: The printer SKDFMLDSF is unknown to Windows Print Manager.
(11:06:48) The following printers are currently defined:

Does anyone know how I can send a spool containing the generated PDFs to my local printer ???
Thanks,

Hi Nicolas,
To avoid problems with SAPLPD you can print the PDF using the control technology.
Please read the SAP note

Issue submitting PDF to adobe livecycle REST url

I am trying to submit (as a PDF) a document to a REST url (a long lived adobe livecycle process). When I open the PDF via internet explorer and submit, it does not seem to do anything. Does anyone know why and how I can get around it?

Here are the details for the above question. We render/generate a pdf using LiveCycle process, the rendered pdf will be on server side and can be accessible for certain period of time, this is the configuration setting on adminUI.
In my project we are not distributing a form up front and submit later at any time. We are generating/rendering the pdf on demand using the data from the application while submitting the rendered pdf we are invoking REST URL for one of the flows. In this case the pdf already on the server side, so it will not requires any authentication to invoke any of the process.
I got error trace of below while submit thru IE using the local machine pdf. So please check your server log for more details specific to your issue.

optimizePDF
public OptimizePDFResult optimizePDF(Document inputDocument, String fileTypeSettings, Document inSettingsDoc) throws ConversionException, InvalidParameterException, FileFormatNotSupportedException
Optimizes the input PDF document by reducing its size. This method also converts the PDF document to the PDF version specified in the optimization parameters. This method supports the same optimization settings as Adobe Acrobat.
Parameters:
inDoc - This mandatory parameter contains an instance of the Document whose content is to be optimized.

The LiveCycle Administration Console window for Generate PDF lets you view the currently defined file type settings. It also lets you create custom file type settings. If the inSettingsDoc parameter specifies a non-NULL value, this parameter is ignored. If this parameter and the inSettingsDoc parameter are both null, this method uses the default file type settings instance that is defined on the LiveCycle server.
inSettingsDoc - file2pdf-settings XML file that contains file type settings to use for optimization, including the file type settings used by this method. For information about this file, see the description for the createPDF2() method.

Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES2 email button question

I am using Adobe Lifecycle Designer ES2 to create an Adobe Acrobat X pdf form. The form uses a checkbox to select different options, and then the form is sent via e-mail to a specific e-mail address. I am wondering if it is possible to script the following option when sending the e-mail:
I have a dropdown list box where a person's name is selected e.g. John Smith.    Depending upon which person is selected, is it possible to include their name in the cc field of the e-mail message, so that John Smith is appended to @abc.com for an e-mail address of [email protected]
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Hi,
You can do the following:
You have to use a normal button!!
Please copy the following code in the click-event of the normal button!
You have only adapt if the name of your DropDwonList is not the same ( in line 1 and line 4)!!
If the user don't use the DD the buttons don't works. The button works if the user select any emal of the DD.
if(DropdownListe1.rawValue != null)
    //fill in e-mail
    var Mailto = DropdownListe1.rawValue;
    //var Mailto = "[email protected]";
    //fill in subject
    //var YourSubject = Formular1.s1.subject.rawValue;
    var YourSubject = "Test Subject";
    //fill in message
    //var YourMessage = "Content PDF:\r" + "Field content: " + Formular1.s1.inhalt.rawValue + "\rName: "
    var YourMessage = "This is a test message.\r2.row start here.\r3.row here.";
    //fill in e-mail cc
    //var CC = Formular1.s1.emailcc.rawValue;
    var CC = "[email protected]";
    //fill in e-mail bcc
    //var BCC = Formular1.s1.emailbcc.rawValue;
    var BCC = "[email protected]";
    var Mail = "mailto:" + Mailto + "?Subject=" + YourSubject + "&Body=" + YourMessage + "&cc=" + CC + "&bcc=" + BCC;

    //cSubmitAs: "XML" send the pdf as xml-attachment

Adobe LiveCycle Workspace "Save as Draft" option

Hi,
I have XDP form designed using Adobe Form Designer 9.0.0.2 which has WSDL Data connections to fetch data from database to populate the form. This form has to be displayed in workspace for completion process with Reader Extension (Database and Web service Connectivity). But when I display this form with Reader Extension in workspace I can see only complete button, save and offline button as not available.
I have a requirement to complete the form to initiate the Process – by pressing complete button which is working fine.
But to save the form to the initiator’s draft folder there is no save button available how to enable “save as draft” option for the above mentioned form.
Regards,
Chalukya.

Hi Jon,
Thanks a lot for your responce.
I am submitting my form as XDP.
Let me brief you –
When I am submitting my form as XDP without any Reader Extensions Applied to it then I
can see all three buttons : Complete, Save and Offline, in Workspace.
But as I apply Reader Extension (Database and Web service connectivity) and submit as XDP
then I can see only Complete button and not Save and Offline buttons.
Regards,
Chalukya.
