Adding filename and path to Adobe Designer form footer

We are developing a form and Document Control required the form have a field on the form footer to show the live "Path & filename".
I need what is shown in the properties under "File" to show up in the footer. I have been unable to locate the correct syntax to type in the footer.
Can you tell me how this can be accomplished?

Create a field on your masterpage. Get rid of the caption, appearance=none and set as Protected. Also set your width to expand to fit. In the layout:ready event of your field, add this JavaScript:
this.rawValue=event.target.path
That should do it.

  • Add filename and path to Designer form footer.

    I am somewhat of a novice at creating forms in Livecycle designer and need help adding a filename and path to the footer of a form after clicking on the "save as' button.  I have not found any answers anyplace so help would be greatly appreciated ASAP. Thank you!!

  • Given filename or path contains Unicode or double-byte characters.Retry using ASCII characters for filename and path What does this mean? it happen when I publish an OAM

    Given file name or path contains Unicode or double-byte characters. Retry using ASCII characters for filename and path
    What does this mean? It is happening when I try to publish an OAM for Dreamweaver.
    Also: How can I specify the browser in Edge Animate? It is just going wherever. Are there no Preferences for Edge Animate?
    BTW. Just call it Edge. Seriously. Do you call it Illustrator Draw? Photoshop Retouching?

    No, my file name is mainContent.oam
    My project name is mainContent.an
    This error happens when I try to import into Dreamweaver. Sorry, I wasn't clear on that earlier.
    I thought maybe it was because I had saved my image as a png. So re-saved as a svg, still get the error.
    DO I have a setting is Dreamweaver CC that is wrong? Should I try this in Dreamweaver CS6? I might try that next.
    Why is this program so difficult? I know Flash. I know After Effects. I can work the timeline part just great. It's always in the export that I have problems.
    On a MacPro, 10.7.
    Are you an Adobe person or just a nice helper?

  • Trying to add filename and path in footer of Word doc and it only lets me "Convert to PDF"?

    I am running MS Office 03 and just installed Acrobat 9.0 Pro. When I try to insert the Filename and Path from the insert option of the footer properties, it only gives me the option to "Convert to PDF". I don't know why it's doing this, but it started after the install of Acrobat 9.0. What should I do?

      To get the path ... event.target.path;
    To get the file name .... event.target.documentFileName;

  • Filename and path sizes and characters

    I am failing to load 4000+ tracks to my Ipod from my XP machine using Itunes 7.50.0.20. This is an Ipod Clickwheel 20GB. I want to load 17.86GB in the now empty Ipod. However it gets so far then stops saying there is not enough space.
    I wonder if am I getting the wrong message?
    Some of my tracks have very long filenames/paths e.g 124 charactere filenames and 213 character paths. I also have some filenames with " (double quote) in.
    Could this be the reason?
    If so what characters must I avoid and what size should the filename and paths be limited to?

    Filenames and paths are irrelevant. They are renamed on the iPod anyway.
    20 GB is not really 20. It is a rounded number all HD manufacturers use. Plus you lose some space due to formatting and the iPod software. There is also meta data for the songs which takes some space.

  • Add filename and path into PDF-form

    Hello,
    I create different PDF-forms for our company with LiveCycle Designer 8.2.1 .
    Now I have to integrate the name of the form-file and its path automatically into the form. My idea is to place a text-field, I will give the type "calculated" in the value-tab of the object-palette. This Text-field should be filled with the file name and the path where it's stored in the background. I find these two values in the info-tab of the form-properties dialog-box. My questions is: How do I get these values, that I can place them via script into my text field?
    Can someone give me a hint? Thanks.

  • GP and WD with Adobe Interactive form question - need some guidance.

    Hello experts,
    FYI, I'm running ECC 5.0 Support Stack 9, EP 7.0 SPS 11, NWDS 2.0.9_15 with Adobe Livecyle Designer.
    I am slightly stuck with what I'm trying to do. I have created a web dynpro application that has an Adobe interactive form. I'm trying to use guided procedures to initiate a process so that this interactive form can be filled out and submitted to an approver. I need the relevant parties to receive a notification email. I have setup email templates and services, I just need to know how it will fit into the process. Once approved in the process, a BAPI should be invoked to populate some fields in the form. Should I be creating the Web Dynpro application to invoke the bapi or should a guided procedure callable object invoke the bapi? I know how to do these things, but I dont know which method I should use, in order to correctly have this process flow from point A - point B. Should the process appear in the Universal Worklist? If not, why not? Will it only appear in the GP runtime? I have pretty much read thru most of the tutorials but still cannot get this GP stuff to work as a WHOLE process.
    Any guidance, suggestions, possible solutions will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Kunal.

    Hi,
    It seems you have not activated the Composite Form object. Only after activation you will be able to use it to create a Callable Object of type composite form.
    Hope this helps,

  • Blank value added to dropdown list in Adobe Interactive forms

    Hi,
    I see blank value being added to the value list by default to dropdown lists in adobe interactive forms. The real issue is it's being added sometimes as the first value or last value in the drop down list of values which is inconsistent and resulting in Errors sometimes.
    Is there a way by which we can control the position of the blank value added by default(SAP or Adobe) to the drop down lists in adobe interactive forms .? Secondly , Is this a SAP or Adobe upgrade issue since we observed this issue only after recent upgrades ...?
    I am using HCM processes and forms and I am not adding blank value (space) explicitly in my coding of dropdown list values .
    Thanks for your time .

    Hi Sankeerth,
    The Web Dynpro framework generates a blank entry to the value set of the dropdown listbox if the Context attribute bound to the dropdown listbox is "nullable" (see properties of the Context attribute).
    The dropdown listboxes of interactive forms will be populated with exactly the same data (value sets) as the "native" Web Dynpro dropdown lisboxes.
    For SAP NetWeaver 7 EhP2, there's a Web Dynpro test application (WDR_TEST_ADOBE_ZCI) available, which demonstrates this: Start it and see the dropdown listboxes labeled "Datatype" and "Datatype (nullable)": Both are bound to Context attributes which are of type DATATYPE_D. The only difference is that one of the attributes is "nullable". The dropdown listbox bound to the nullable attribute contains the additional blank entry.
    Watch the native Web Dynpro dropdown listboxes below the interactive form: They are bound to the same Context attributes and contain the same value sets as the dropdown listboxes of the interactive form!

    Ralf

  • Capturing entire directory path in Adobe Interactive Form

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement where I have a field ZPATH1 on Adobe Interactive Form. I am putting a BROWSE button and writing following JavaScript on CLICK event on this button for populating the chosen file path into field ZPATH1.
    *Start of JavaScript
    var sFile;
    event.target.importDataObject(sFile);
    var oFile;
    oFile = event.target.getDataObject(sFile);
    this.parent.parent.Sub_Form_Fields_Mass.ZPATH1.rawValue = oFile.path;
    *End of JavaScript
    1. event.target.importDataObject(sFile) --> Giving me the pop up to select the file.
    2. this.parent.parent.Sub_Form_Fields_Mass.ZPATH1.rawValue = oFile.path; --> Putting the oFile path in field ZPATH1 on the form.
    3. This way is only giving me the selected FILE NAME whereas I need the complete path.
    I have tried below way also:
    this.parent.parent.Sub_Form_Fields_Mass.ZPATH1.rawValue = even.target.path;
    This function returns me the complete path but in URL form. It does not give me the presentation server path.
    Please suggest me how to get the complete path of presentation server to the file.
    Appreciation would be honored in form of points!!!
