Adobe Static Forms

Hello,
I have a requirement to display a static Adobe form. Please help me with this. Is it only possible via, ACF and Adobe document server?
Thanks
Mrinalini

Hi,
   Using ACF & ADS you will be able to create Adobe interactive forms.That is integrating your webdynpro with Adobe using Adobe Interactive form UI element.
   There also two scenarios in this offline(static) and online scenario(dynamic).Are you talking about this static scenario?If this so then you have do the configurations settings and install ACF & ADS.
Else if you want call a pdf file from Webdynpro or portal then follow the steps as suggexted by Bhavik.

Guru

    We are facing issue to open a static form PDF in Chrome Browser
    , which is loaded using Adobe FormService.
    Able to open in other browsers but not able to open the static
    forms in chrome with LC 11.0 version
    Below error message:
    The document you are trying to load
    requires Adobe Reader 8 or higher. You may not have the Adobe Reader installed
    or your viewing environment may not be properly configured to use Adobe Reader.
    For information on how to install Adobe Reader and configure your viewing
    environment please see http://www.adobe.com/go/pdf_forms_configure.
    Please let us know do we have any option for disabling
    <NoXFA/> tag by calling formService. RenderPDF() method on adobe service
    For dynamic forms its working by adding <NOXFA/> in
    DDX xml . only for static forms its not working because we are not using
    assembler service for this forms.
    Please let us know how we can disable XFA in static forms??????????????????

    If anyone is reading this still looking for what caused the issue and how to fix it here is what I discovered.
    The antivirus program our company uses, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, was causing some of the PDF files not to open. After troubleshooting the different modules and settings the culprit was..
    Scan SSL in Privacy Control Settings. Turning it OFF solved the problem and all the PDF files that previously would not open now open just fine. This issue has been sent to Bitdefender for them to review. If you use a different antivirus program and are having this issue try locating the Scan SSL setting and see if turning it off solves the problem.

  • Items are not visible in multi-select listbox in a static form

    Hi,
    I'm using adobe livecycle designer 8.0. I have a multi-select listbox, the items are hardcoded into the form. In runtime, some of the items are selected from the server side when the PDF is generated. If only one item is selected then there is no issue. When multiple items are selected, the list box is behaving as below.
    If the PDF is static,
    If the listbox is readonly, then all the selected items are visible (highlighted in red)
    If the listbix is editable, then it appears blank. If you select it using right click, then you can see all the items and the selected items. But if you click again somewhere outside the listbox, then the listbox goes blank. If you select it using left click, then the previous selections are gone and the items are visible with the item you just selected.
    If the PDF is dynamic, then the multi-select  is working fine.
    Aren't the multi-select listboxes supported in static PDFs?
    For your reference, I created 2 templates (static and dynamic) and populating the values using javascript in the docReady event. I'm using \n character as delimter to select the multiple items. Please find them at the below links.Notice the "List Box 1" in both forms. In static form, the values appear only after you right click the listbox.

    Hi All,
    In such cases, please try to check as below :
    1) Create Leave request work item from Employee and check the same under the UWL Tracking tab of employee.
    2) Log-in to swi5 transaction of the respective back end system and give "US" -> manager's UserID -> Choose Tasks to be completed from the drop down -> Remove any date if mentioned -> Execute.
    3) Here if you can see the Leave request created, but not on the portal, it reflects some portal issue like sync.
    4) If no leave request work item is seen here, then there is a problem in the employee manager mapping or the workflow setup.
    5) In such cases, you can try to check the Swi1 and check the log of that workflow to understand the current status of the Leave request.
    Revert if further help is needed with more info.
    Reward points if found useful.

  • Web Service is not triggering  using Adobe Interactive Form

    Hello Experts,
      I know this is a common topic now , but the problem I am facing, no thread help me to solve that.
    Problem:--
    My requirement is to create an adobe form , in which
      -> an input field is needed,and some  description is needed.
    I used button to trigger my webservice.
    Here , I want to clear that , I have made a proper WEB SERVICE using Remote Enabled FM.
    My web service is working fine as I have tested from WS NAVIGATOR(Note:  http://<source>:<port>/wsnavigator).
    In Adobe Form (SFP), I have made a new Data connection using WebService WSDL.
    All Request and Response parameters are availabe in Data View palletes of Form.
    Button that is available from data connection is used.
    I  have used Button as  an Execute button , under execute tab in connection , I had given DATA CONNECTION name .
    But above things not worked so ,
    I also tried with Regular Button , and under click written Javascript/FormCalc  which is:--
    var cURL = 'http://x.y.com:8012/sap/bc/srt/rfc/sap/ZMATERIAL_DESCRIPTION?sap-client=800&wsdl=1.1';
    var service = SOAP.connect(cURL);
    xfa.connectionSet.DataConnection2.execute(0);
    But this also not worked .
    So, I think there can be a little issue may be , I am forgetting to click some special  atrributes in form .
    Please help me and let me know what can be probable reasons that webservice is not triggering
    Thanks a lot ,

  • SUBMIT(to SAP) Button in Adobe Interactive Forms (Web Dynpro Java)

    Hi ,
    I m using Adobe Interactive Forms with Web Dynpro Java
    But submit to SAP button is not working
    i m using NWDS 7.2 with adobe lifecycledesigner 6.0
    with adobe reader 9.0
    when i click submit to SAP button in interactive form nothing happens and
    data is not transfered into web dynpro Context
    Can anybody help me out................

    Hi Adi,
    The evniorment and versions you posted seems to be quite scattered, make sure all are of compatible and to the lates.
    Anyways this was not the reason for your problem.
    Can you tace if the button click event is triggered ....?
    1) when the PDF is published can you see any of the fields editable...? reason behind is generally when you create a form in ADLC it comes up in static PDF format if its so you need to make it dynamic.
    I dont know if adding the webdynpro script to your form might fix.
    Regards,
    Sai

  • 'Inserting' text into a Text Field on event trigger in a static form

    Sorry if this seems like a silly question, but I've been struggling with it for a bit and I'm new to Adobe/JavaScript.
    I am building a static form (it must be static), and I want to have text appear/disapear based on an event trigger (mouseclick). I tried creating a floating text object inside of a static text object, but I'm not sure how I can make the string value for this change based on the event trigger. The only advice in the Adobe help was purely regarding FormCalc, which I can't use as this must be a static form. I tried using this code in the <script>, but it obviously didn't work as it was written from FormCalc code versus JaveScript;
    TextField.rawvalue = variable.value;
    What do you suggest in terms of being able to script this, so my static form will work? Thanks a billion if you can help!
    PS: I'm using Adobe 9, LiveCycle ES 8.2
    PPS: Also tried inserting the following into my trigger script;
                        xfa.resolveNode("form1.subform.TestField").rawValue= "Please Work";
                        xfa.layout.relayout("form1.subform.TestField");
    It also did not work.

    Hi,
    If the button and the textfield are on in the same subform then this code should work in the click event of the button
    (This is JavaScript code so make sure the code is set to JavaScript and Client on the drop downs in the script window)
    (assuming the name of the textfield is TextField1)
    TextField1.rawValue = "some value";
    If they are in different subforms then you have 2 options
    Please note in both these options it is easier if the subforms have names ( I am assuming this to keep samples simple)
    option 1 -
    use the parent object to move up the tree till you are at the same level as that of the subform that contains the textfield
    e.g. 
    (Click Event of the button)
    this.parent.subformname.TextField1.rawValue = "some value";
    option 2 -
    Use the resolve node to make your way down from the top level of the form
    xfa.resolveNode ("form1.subformname.TextField1").rawValue = "some value";
    Hope this helps
    Malcolm
    p.s. I am making assumptions as the image/file you attached did not appear for me.

  • Links in Static form wont open

    I have a form I created in Microsoft Excel and converted to PDF in Lifecycle Designer ES ver 8.2.  Its a static form.  In the form are numbers with hyperlinks.  Click the number and opens the link.  The form works on the PC but not on any smartphone I have tried (Iphone, Blackberry, Droids).  I have opening it in Adobe Reader on my Droid Incredible and the form opens but the links are not there.  The numbers are not clickable.  Is this a fault of my conversion or the Reader?

    Hi,
    Thanks for posting your query.
    Currently we are not supporting the clicking of links inside pdf in our mobile version of pdf reader on android.
    For more information on this check this link http://www.adobe.com/products/reader/pdfs/android_FAQ.pdf.

  • Static form in word present in sharepoint

    I have static forms in Sharepoint ( MS Word). Want workflow to be set up for these forms in SAP. Any suggestions

    I suspect your question doesn't involve the FormsCentral service, which is what this forum is for. For questions relating to PDF forms created with Acrobat, this following forum is the most appropriate: http://forums.adobe.com/community/acrobat/forms?view=discussions
    The most common way to create a form with Word is to create the content in Word and then convert it to PDF with Acrobat. You then add the interactive form fields in Acrobat. It includes a feature that will automatically add the fields where it thinks they should be, but you often have to do a bit of editing since it can't get everything right.
    Extracting data from a form is certainly possible and there are a number of ways to do it. Most likely there will be some programming involved somewhere along the way.

  • Adobe Interactive Forms using Web AS ABAP Only

    Hi,
    After setting up ADS, we want to publish an adobe interactive form to a website. We want this form to be truly interactive, meaning users can enter data through it with validations. My question is, is it possible to develop this form using ABAP only and deploy it in WEB AS ABAP? Or do we really need to use NWDS and WEB AS JAVA for this?
    I saw somewhere that ABAP can only provide printforms (static?) while JAVA (in NWDS) can generate interactive forms.
    Please help.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Tyken

    Hi,
    For this you must define the form's interface based on XML and not DDIC ...

  • Heavy performance issues using Adobe Interactive Form PDFs generated by SAP BPM

    Dear experts,
    we use Adobe Interactive Form PDFs (generated with LiveCycle Designer) as Human Tasks within SAP BPM processes. The PDFs are generated and transmitted correctly, but when they are opened at the receivers PC, Windows freezes for 2-3 minutes, then the PDF opens and can be filled out and sent back. The next PDFs can be opened much faster, but when the PC is restarted, we get the same problem again. We use Adobe Reader XI (11.0.2) on our clients; is their any know performance issue?
    Please note, that we have this problem with EVERY Adobe Interactive Form PDF... I created a simple PDF containing just a field and the client PC still freezes. So it can't be in the form or the scripting. Normal static PDFs can be opend without any problems.
    Best regards,
    David

    They haven't really announced it, because there is no product to announce. Rather the opposite.
    There are no conversion tools, so far as I know.
    XFA forms are a non-starter if you want portability.
    AcroForms are a nightmare in themselves, because the functionality is limited in Adobe Reader and varies between absent and weird in other products. No idea about Blackberry support.
    You will not find a simple recommendation. Rather, you need to use Acroforms and carefully test everything (EVERYTHING: no assumptions) on every platform you intend to support.
    Yes, rather unsatisfactory, but until Adobe realise that the future is platform equivalence or irrelevance, this is where we are.

  • Questions regarding Adobe Interactive Forms capabilities

    Hi,
    We have the following questions regarding Adobe Interactive Forms.
    1. Not able to create a text field with dynamic size according to the data entered in the text field in a form with Static Content type forms.   We use a scroll area, but cannot print content that is not visible in the scroll area.
        We currently have Designer 7.0 and 2004 SP 16. I tried to set “Form Properties -> PDF Render Format” to be “Acrobat 7.0 Compatible Dynamic PDF” but the text field did not grow dynamically.
    2. Another requirement is that once one form is accepted by the Customer, we need to generate a second, new form (with all user entered information from the first form) and the customer should be able to print the form.
        To implement this, we need to have a form that can support dynamically growing text field in some areas, and specific positioning of form elements for other areas. Can we have a dynamic form which lets the fields grow dynamically according to the data entered in the field and with specific positioning of elements?
    3. Sending emails from Offline forms – Requirement is to send an email as soon as the form is accepted by our Customers. But the Customers can complete the form offline. Is it possible to automatically send an email in an offline forms without having the user push the ‘send’ button from their email application?  Can the Adobe Form do that part automatically?
    Appreciate any help regarding above questions.
    Thanks,
    Kalyan

    HI Francois,
    Thank you very much for the very helpful information.
    1. I am able to insert now the floating field inside a static text but the text does not grow dynamically even when I set the form type to be "Flowed Content". Is it something that required Adobe Designer 7.0 and also 2004s ADS?
    2. I can still select only Flow or position content from the option but how can we use both in the same form? I am using Adobe Designer 7.0 and it allows to select only one. Is it again a problem in lower versions that I use?
    3. This is an excellent idea and I strongly believe this is going to work (am trying to create POC for this solution). The form should be able to call the webservice as long as the user is connected to internet.
    Can you provide your views on the first two points. I appreciate your help.
    Thanks,
    Kalyan

  • Adobe Interactive Forms and WDA - Right click and submit

    Hi guys,
    We're developing some OnLine Adobe Intercative Form.
    For each module we have one submit button that sends all data to SAP system.
    Every module uses ZCI Layout and Native WebDynpro Library but when someone clicks on the submit button, also with right mouse button, it starts a submit event and after it opens a WDA's menu, from where, someone could accidentally hide a Adobe Form in his browser session!
    So, I would like to know how we can disable this functionality and also how I can have a "hide reader toolbar" in my pallette inside Adobe liveCycle Designer 7.1.
    Regards,
    Antonello

    Interactive Forms support two types of attachments:
    1) Attachments as comments
    - Interactive PDF Forms generated by the Adobe Document Services (ADS) in SAP turn on by default the commenting/annotations toolbar in Adobe Reader. You can then select "Attach a file as a comment" to attach a file anywhere on the page.
    - This is available since the first release of Interactive Forms
    - These attachments cannot be handled  (e.g. detached) automatically on the server. You can use it to archive the PDF with the attachments or to open the form in Acrobat or Reader and open them on the client.
    - Like any annotation functionality this does not work for dynamic interactive PDF forms (PDF forms which can dynamically grow/shrink in the client)
    2) Document Level Attachments
    - This is available with NW04S SPS10 and higher.
    - To attach a document select Menu -> Document -> Attach a File in Reader
    - Attachments can be manipulated/detached on the server using custom Java or ABAP code with the PDFDocument Object... Here is the documentation for the Java PDF Document Object (http://help.sap.com/javadocs/NW04S/current/wd/index.html)
    - This works for all types of PDF documents (dynamic and static)

  • Credentials to use adobe interactive form

    Hi
       I see an OSS note that talks about creating a OSS ticket to SAP requesting them for credentials to use an adobe interactive form.
    We are on ECC 5.0 ( WAS 640 ) and intend to generate an adobe interactive form using a combination of adobe livecycle designer ( T.code SFP ) and an ABAP application program that sets the generated pdf property to fillable = 'X'
    Question is - is there any extra licensing code required to get this credentials to SAP.
    Please reply.

    Hi Karthik,
    Please refer to the below note for your reference on Interactive form licensing:
    eason and Prerequisites
    The interactive use of PDF forms may be subject to license under certain circumstances.
    Solution
    Using the tools and using print forms (not interactive) is part of the license of the relevant SAP solution (including NetWeaver).
    If the following three criteria apply to you, you must purchase an additional license from SAP for your SAP Interactive Forms:
    You create templates for interactive forms.
    You create your own customer-specific interactive form templates or change an interactive form template delivered by SAP by adding further interactive fields or changing the data binding of existing interactive fields to the back-end.
               (Such modifications exceed cosmetic changes in form templates delivered by SAP such as adding your own logo or static texts, and are therefore subject to license.)
    You use interactive forms in a productive system, that is, end users fill in generated PDF forms during business operations.
    Note that the additional license also affects interactive forms used by SAP partners (independent software vendors - ISV), who deliver these forms as part of their products developed on the SAP NetWeaver platform.
    Current information about licensing is also available on SAP Service Marketplace at http://service.sap.com/Adobe --> FAQs.
    The license for SAP Interactive Forms is an official SAP license. For further details, consult your contact person in your local SAP sales office.
