Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions issue

Hi all,
I have an issue about ARES. When I create a PDF file and use password to secure the document and “Changes Allowed” is set as “Commenting, filling in form fields, and signing existing signature fields”, the commenting doesn’t work and display the error as below:
Warning: JavaScript Window-
This document is not enabled for review in Adobe Reader. You must use Adobe Acrobat to review this document.
Other documents which is not set password security can be commented normally. Please give me some advices.
Any idea will be appreciated!
Regards,
Ryan

Hi Steve,
Thanks for your reply! I have something unclearly. What is the “Apply Usage Rights” step do you mean? If it looks like the attachment shows, I think I can comment on the PDF file. However, after doing this, the PDF doc settings cannot be modified by Acrobat again.
If not, could you please tell me what is “Apply Usage Rights” step?
Actually, the issue occurred when I use Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions and EMC Documentum PDF Annotation Services together. Everything works fine exception password security settings. If I don’t use password settings, all commenting functionalities are work fine.

Hi, I need to purchase adobe livecycle reader extensions, can you send me its pricing server?

It would be easier if you purchased in Norway, where the customer is. If not, you can buy it from a partner in India

Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions ES Version 8 - res problem

We have been using Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions ES Version 8 to create forms that are used internally within the business, but also externally for customers to complete and email back to us.
We haven't created new forms for a while, but now when we log into the LiveCycle Reader Extensions Server User Interface and try to res a form, it just times out.
It gets to the process status, and then just stalls and says that it's downloading, but nothing actually happens. Any ideas on a fix?

Installation of Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions ES2

Hi,
Adobe has informed us that we need to use Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions ES2 in stead of Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2. We had some doubts about the reason why, but that's a different issue.
Now, when we want to order Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions ES2 we need to indicate on what application server we will install (IBM WebSphere / Oracle WebLogic / JBoss). However, I want to install it on a desktop pc. Can anybody explain me which of the 3 options I need to order? What is the difference?
Thanks in advance!
Erik

I am a contractor working with a national agency. I don't have rights to set up any sort of server on my PC at work, which runs Windows XP Professional -- NOT Windows Server as Adobe's tech specs indicate. At home, I use Windows 7 Professional.
Most of the PDF forms I set up only require users to type text in text fields, click check boxes, or decide "yes" or "no" in radio buttons. For those simple forms, have found that Acrobat Pro's "Enable Reader Features" allows users to fill out the form in Reader, save it to their hard drive, and attach it to an email to return the completed forms.
I know that this WON'T work if we include any data functions or buttons which run JavaScripts. For example, one of my users wants a button that allows them to attach a file to the PDF. That button won't work in Reader unless I use LiveCycleReader Extensions to enable full functionality in Reader. Correct me if I have any of this wrong, so far. I am considering equipping one of my computers at home with LiveCycleReader Extensions to create these forms -- if they can be used independently of the server I have to set up on my home PC.
Would any forms created in LiveCycle Reader Extensions have to be returned to the server I would need to set up on my PC, or could users complete the froms, save them, and attach them to email as they do with the simple forms created in Acrobat?
You mentioned that Reader Extensions includes JBoss to set up a local server. Could I even install LiveCycle Reader Extensions on my PC if it only has Windows 7 Professional? Would it work on Windows 7 Professional?
(I already asked about setting up a server for these forms at work and was told "It'll never happen!" My customers are reluctant to accept an answer that , "Yes, it is possible to enable these features but we are not allowed to do what it takes to make them work."

Can use adobe livecycle reader extensions es to compile adobe livecycle designer ES3 file?

Hi ,
I am using livecycle designer ES and livecycle reader extensions es to create some PDF files. I want to use the new feature action builder, so I downloaded the designer ES3. After creating some new files, I tried to use livecycle reader extensions es (old version) to convert the file to add the saving function to adobe reader. It could not convert the file successfully and stuck at downloading the file page as the attached screen. Does that mean I have to upgrade livecycle reader extensions es to es3? Thanks in advance.

There were problems like this that were caused by a flashplayer security patch. See https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/livecycle/ZRj27vcLXOI
My memory is a bit hazy on this, as it was three years ago.
There was a LiveCycle blog on this November 11, 2008
http://blogs.adobe.com/livecycle/2008/11/livecycle_and_flash_player_10.html
Flash Player 10 broke the Reader Extensions sample application included with LiveCycle ES 8.0.1, and 8.2.1. When you use it, it will essentially hang. The workaround is to revert back to Flash Player 9 on those machines you use as LiveCycle clients.
This problem has been fixed in LC 8.2.1 SP3 as well as in ES2.
The key is to either upgrade your server or downgrade to an earlier (9) version of the flash player. (copying from the google group)
As you said, this issue is due to the changes in security in flash
player 10. The Reader Extensions webUI leverages flex. For LiveCycle
8.2.1, the file dialog automatically pops up after conversion is
complete. However, in flash player 10, there were changes to how file
reference are is handled. Since it is possible to pop up a file
dialog based on user action), and automatically poping up that file
dialog based on the old code base will no longer work. This is a
known issue in LC ES 8.2.1, and downgrading to flash player 9 works.
However, in fix pack 2 of LiveCycle ES Update 1. (8.2.1.2), this bug
on flash player 10 has been resolved with an explicit button to
download the file.

Extending a document in Adobe Acrobat if you have purchased and own LiveCycle Reader Extensions

I work for an organization that has purchased adobe livcycle designer suite which includes Livecycle reader extensions. However we do not really have a need (besides perhaps per the EULA), nor the technical support to extend reader documents using the server based LiveCycle Reader extensions. We will definitly be collecting info from over 500 receipients so per the adobe acrobat license agreement:
16.8.3 For any unique Extended Document, Customer may only (a) Deploy that Extended Document to an unlimited number of recipients, but Customer shall not extract data from more than five hundred (500) instances of such Extended Document (or any hardcopy representation of that Extended Document) that contains data from a recipient; or (b) Deploy an Extended Document to no more than five hundred (500) recipients without limits on the number of times Customer may extract data from a recipient from that Extended Document. Obtaining additional licenses to use Acrobat Standard, Acrobat Pro, or Adobe Acrobat Suite shall not increase
the foregoing limits (that is, the foregoing limits are the aggregate total limits regardless of how many additional licenses to use Acrobat Standard, Acrobat Pro, or Adobe Acrobat Suite the Customer may have obtained). For the avoidance of doubt, if Customer purchases another Adobe product or service that allows Customer to send a greater number of PDF files or forms (e.g. Adobe FormsCentral or Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions), then the terms of that Adobe product or service shall supersede the terms of this Section 16.8.3
Given the very last sentence, it sounds me like since my organization has provided me with a copy of LiveCycle Reader extensions I can extend the adobe document using adobe acrobat if I wish, and still be within the terms of the EULA, is this the correct interpretation? I would prefer not to actually use the LiveCycle reader extensions as once again we do not have the technical support, nor the need for this server based solutions.

Hi Ben,
Thank you for providing the detailed description of the problem.
The contents of the password-protected PDF document are encrypted (so that nobody can read the contents until the correct password is entered).
Acrobat DC mobile products (for iOS and Android) have the known limitation where changes cannot be saved to encrypted PDF documents. Therefore, users are not able to make any changes (e.g. adding comments/annotations or filling out forms) to encrypted PDF documents.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

How to make a PDF LiveCycle Reader Extended?

Hi Everybody
I have installed Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extension Server into my machine. But i don't know how to use this to make a pdf reader extended. Please Help me in this regard.
Thanks,
Manjeet

HI,
The website you gave me won't open.
I'm sorry, I know very little about programming, and I'm only an admin assitant with certain administrator rights to my own computer so I don't have access to the servers.
I'm now very confused, I've been trying to get this done for a whole week now without results. http://localhost:8080/ReaderExtensions I thought this is all I needed to import my trial RE credentials. I don't want to purchase a module that might not work if I don't have the whole ADEP document services or if I need certain programs.
I need some guidance to know if I'm doing the right thing. This is what I have done so far:
1;- I currently have the Livecycle ES8.2 version installed in my computer for a couple of years now and recently downloaded and installed the ES2 trial.
2.- I also downloaded the trial version of the RE and installed the credential in my computer.
3.- According to your suggestions in this forum and also in the Adobe instructions I'm supposed to import the RE credential to the administration console (http://localhost:8080/ReaderExtensions with an adminstrator user and password password but the site says my user and password are incorrect....??
4.- I don't know what else to do then because I'm stuck in 3.
Now reading manjeet's response, I need to download a server?
I'm trying to test if what ever I'm doing here is right with the use of trial versions of livecycle and RE so after testing I can request to purchase both, but if this doesn't work to make my dynamic form import and export data in adobe reader then my whole project is gone to the trash aswell as my other pending projects.
There is no way and no how we're switching to the ADEP documentation services because the whole corporation is working under another documentation service, so what ever I'm trying to do here is for our internal use as a department.
Will just the Livecycle ES2 and an RE credential be enough?
Please help, I'm very frustrated now.
Thanks!

LiveCycle Reader Extensions ES, version 8.2, and supported client Flash versions

Hello,
We are running Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions ES, Version 8.2.
We have a couple users that connect through IE (version 7) to create fillable forms.
Our companies standard version of Adobe Flash is 10.x
When we upgraded to 10.x, the users could no longer open (convert) a pdf to be able to make it fillable. The fix was to down grade the Flash version to version 9.
Is there a better fix for this, as I have another user that requires access to the LiveCycle server but is running Flash 10, yet I would prefer not to downgrade them to Flash 9.
Hopefully the above explanation makes sense, as I am technical support versus being a LiveCycle user.
Thanks!
Chris

Memory Leak Problem at Adobe LiveCycle Server 9.0

Hi All,
We want to upgrade our system to 9.0. During the performance test we have found memory Leak problem at ALS 9.0. I explain the detailed problematic issue below. Is there any body who has any suggest?
We have Adobe Livecycle ES2 9.0 SP2 installed on WAS 6.1. But also WAS on Windows Server 2008 R2. We call java web services from .Net Web service for generating PDFs.
On Java side “com/adobe/internal/pdftoolkit/services/javascript/GibsonMemoryTracking” class is causing Memory Leak problem at server.
Our .Net Codes. I copied below. First we generate PDF then we convert this pdf to static pdf.
First We call the GeneratePDF function.
public static bool GeneratePdf(Document document, byte[] pdfTemplate)
        try
            //Create a FormDataIntegrationService object and set authentication values
            FormDataIntegrationService formDataIntegrationClient = new FormDataIntegrationService();
            formDataIntegrationClient.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential(Settings.ALCUserName, Settings.ALCPassword);
            //Import XDP XML data into an XFA PDF document
            ALCFormDataIntegrationService.BLOB inXMLData = new ALCFormDataIntegrationService.BLOB();
            //Populate the BLOB object
            inXMLData.binaryData = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(document.XmlData);
            //Create a BLOB that represents the input PDF form
            ALCFormDataIntegrationService.BLOB inPDFForm = new ALCFormDataIntegrationService.BLOB();
            inPDFForm.binaryData = pdfTemplate;
            //Import data into the PDF form
            ALCFormDataIntegrationService.BLOB results = formDataIntegrationClient.importData(inPDFForm, inXMLData);
            document.PdfData = results.binaryData;
            Utility.Log("GeneratePdf", "Pdf generated successfully.", LogLevel.Info);
            return true;
        catch (Exception ex)
            document.ReturnCode = "22";
            document.ReturnMsg = "Exception on generating the pdf";
            Utility.Log("GeneratePdf", "Exception: " + ex.Message, LogLevel.Error);
            return false;
Then We call the ConvertPDF function.
public static bool ConvertPdf(Document document)
        try
            //Create a OutputServiceService object
            OutputServiceService outputClient = new OutputServiceService();
            outputClient.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential(Settings.ALCUserName, Settings.ALCPassword);
            //Create a BLOB object
            ALCOutputService.BLOB inData = new ALCOutputService.BLOB();
            //Populate the BLOB object
            inData.binaryData = document.PdfData;
            //Set rendering run-time options
            RenderOptionsSpec renderOptions = new RenderOptionsSpec();
            renderOptions.cacheEnabled = true;
            //Create a non-interactive PDF document
            ALCOutputService.BLOB results = outputClient.transformPDF(inData, TransformationFormat.PDF, PDFARevisionNumber.Revision_1, false, null, PDFAConformance.B, false);
            document.PdfData = results.binaryData;
            Utility.Log("ConvertPdf", "Pdf converted successfully.", LogLevel.Info);
            return true;
        catch (Exception ex)
            document.ReturnCode = "22";
            document.ReturnMsg = "Exception on converting dynamic pdf to static pdf";
            Utility.Log("ConvertPdf", "Exception: " + ex.Message, LogLevel.Error);
            return false;

Hi Mahir,
Can you attach the results of this performance test where we can see how GibsonMemoryTracking class is causing the memory leak issue.
Also do you see any stackTrace in the LiveCycle server logs related to memory / heap when you run this performance test ?
Thanks,

Questions regarding Adobe Reader Extensions for Adobe Livecycle.

Hi,
I'm relatively new to Adobe products, having just started to use Adobe Livecycle over the last couple of weeks. I've produced a set of interactive forms for field engineers to use. When completed, they will submit the xml data via email. However, there will be numerous occasions where they will need to stop in the middle of data collection and come back at a later point to finish, hence the need to locally save the information before submission.
I understand this is where Adobe reader extensions would come in, unlocking this functionality.
At the moment, i'm a bit of a loss on several points regarding how reader extensions work and i was wondering if anybody could fill in the gaps:
1. Are they seperate modules that bolt in into the main Livecycle application?
2. As these forms will be used off line, i would like to set the permissions to the pdf locally. From what i read, Reader Extensions is a server product. Is this correct, or can i use Reader Extensions to set these permissions before publishing the adobe form?
3. Where can i get hold of Reader Extensions and how much do they cost? I have been reading information on similar topics on this forum (dating 3-4 years ago) that say reader extensions are comparitavely expensive to a Adobe Pro/Livecycle licence. ($50,000 upwards) Is this correct? If so, is there a cheaper alternative to achieve the same outcome?
I hope someone can shed some light on these points!
Thanks in advance.
Rob

Reader Extensions can be bought as a module in LiveCycle. There is a subset of RE functionality that exists in Acrobat. The ability to save locally is part of Acrobat. In both cases you woudl RE the form before distributing it, hence when the user gets your form they are ready to go. You can download a trial version of the server product. As far as pricing goes you woudl be better to talk to an Adobe salesrep as there are discounts for certain situations as well as different pricing options. If you decide tp gp the Acrobat route you ar limited, by licence, to distribute your form to a max of 500 users.
Hope that helps
Paul

LiveCycle = XFA forms.
afaik - These cannot be used in Apple OSs.
Be well...

How to use Adobe LiveCycle Forms Standard / Pro to leverage features in Adobe Reader

Can someone please tell me how to use the Adobe LiveCycle Forms Standard or Pro module to leverage features in Adobe Reader? Do you also need to have the Reader Extensions Module?
The forms data sheet says that it is possible to leverage features in Adobe Reader but does not go on to detail how.

Depends on your deployment pattern. You can just use Reader Extensions if you're publishing forms on a site, if you need to prefill or perform other processing on the template then LiveCycle Forms is needed. If you want to render to HTML5 for tablet support then Forms Pro is needed.
