Can I use PDF forms on an iPAD?

I have completed a multi page interactive PDF file. It is a survey and works fine off a laptop or desktop.
My client has expressed an interest in having this work on an iPAD. The idea is use the iPAD for its convenience and then send the completed form via email back to the home office.
Presently my file does not reveal the fields so I am thinking I need to do something more. I've got an iPAD but with less than a week experience. I am speculating that it is the nature of the platform and probably the only way to make this work is to have the form on a server and use safari to be the depository.
The business problem is a chronic web connection to work this way is not an assumption.
Thanks for any thoughts

You and your clients can try an iPad app under the title PDF Expert. Above all available features, I usually use this application to fill out PDF forms. PDF Expert even works with those forms that have built-in calculations. What is mostly important for me as a lawyer - sign up feature, that allows me affirm contracts, agreements, etc with the own signature right on the iPad and email back the documents to the office or clients.
More information and features you can find in the app's description: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pdf-expert-fill-forms-annotate/id393316844?mt=8

Application error while generating PDF form

Hello there,
I am getting the message "Application error while generating PDF form" and when you hover it has additional information Message Class HREIC_APPL - Message number 258.
I get this upon doing the following steps:
1. Enter SAP R3, enter HREIC on the transaction code input.
2. Enter EIC, Activity Search. Searched for an Activity, selected it and click the "PRINT" button.
3. After clicking the PRINT button, I get the error message "Application error while generating PDF form".
Installed this on development box, did the same configuration in test system, but still I get this error. ADS Configuration is working fine and configured fine.
Is there anything else that is needed to be checked? like Ports, Firewalls, etc?
Thanks a lot.

Be sure that the RFC name is "ADS" and not anything else.
Thanks.

How can you change data on a SQL 2012 application database that uses availability groups from BizTalk server?

If you use the WCF-SQL adapter it is recommend that you set UseAmbientTransaction to true if you are changing data. I think this requires MSDTC to be enabled on the SQL server that you are changing the data on. (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd787981.aspx)
I think that Availability groups does not support MSDTC. (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms366279.aspx).

Print functionality using PDF form in a webdynpro application

Hello! All
Currently, we have a webdynpro application and we need to provide the print feature to print the content of the iview display on IE browser. We try the File-> print feature provide by Microsoft through IE but this doesn't work. We are looking for any other option like print to pdf form. We don't know if it is possible. Is there any tutorial, help or anything that can help us to print to pdf form. Please share any other suggestion, comment and it will be much appreciated. Thank you very much.

Hi,
The content (which is a pdf content) can be exported as a PDF from a WD Application. For this you can use File Download control whose source is in the form of bytes (which is PDF content).
Do you have the PDF content already generated?
If so it is very easy to generate PDF from WD.
If you need further help, kindly let us know.
Thanks and regards

Adding an External Application that uses J2EE Form Based Security

I'm trying to add an External application that uses the J2EE Form based security. i.e. uses j_username, j_password and posts to j_security_check.
I don't really see how Oracle SSO will support this. The container needs to take control of a clients request and determines when the "Login" page is presented to establish credentials. Posting directly to j_security_check isn't working for me.
I'm using Sybase EAServer 4.12 as the external application.
Is this supported in Oracle SSO?
Do I need to provide a different mechanism for logging user's in?
Also, can someone explain what the benefit would be if I configured the EAServer app as a "Partner" app? I would still have to provide an interface for login. The input would be different but the end result would be the same I guess. What advantages does a Partner app have?
Lastly, is there an NNTP server for these forums?
Thanks.

The cure for the symtops described below was to simply add a welcome-file-list
element with appropriate welcome pages to the web.xml descriptor. It makes sense
now that I have worked it out.

Web Dynpro as Callable object in GP using PDF Forms

Hi All,
I somehow want to integrate a user filling out a pdf form within a Guided Procedure. So far I have created a local web dynpro DC and I want to make it a Web Dynpro Callable Object (GP Interface). The problem is, I want the user to be able to see the PDF form when filling out the form. For example, if they had a role in the portal where they can invoke the Web Dynpro application with the pdf form, then when they click submit on the pdf they invoke the guided procedure...is this possible? This is so, I can use the web dynpro to do some data validation and call some bapis to get info, then submit this all to the GP. Is this achievable? I know how to do most things, I just want to know things like when is the "execute" and "getDescription" methods called? I want my execute( com.sap.caf.eu.gp.co.api.IGPExecutionContext executionContext ) method to call a bapi also. Is that possible? How do I automate a GP process when I click submit on the pdf form?
Thanks in advanced
TM

Hi,
You can integrate a PDF control in a Web Dynpro view. Refer the following links for that:
<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/dc/f1783fe3263042e10000000a114084/frameset.htm">Example of the Use of an Interactive PDF Form (SAP Library - Web Dynpro for Java)</a>

Also you can create Web Dynpro Java callable object in GP by implementing the IGPWebDynproCO interface. Refer the following links for that:

You can start a GP process using the public API:

Also you can start a GP process using Web Service:

Refering the above links you'll get a fairly good idea how to integrate Adobe forms in WDP and how to start GP process programitically. My suggestion for your requirement would be if always you need to start the process after the user submits the Adobe form, then consider having the Adobe form as the first step for the process. In that case you don't need to start the process programitically. Whenever the user starts filling up the Adobe form the GP process will start. You can refer <a href="/people/dipankar.saha3/blog/2007/03/02/how-to-present-your-gp-processes-to-the-end-user">this blog</a> on how to start a GP process as an iview link in portal.
Otherwise if based on certain conditions you need to start the process then you can either use the Java API or the web service to start the process from Web Dynpro. You should have the Adobe form embedded in Web Dynpro and on submit event you can check the conditions and start the process if required.
Thanks,
Dipankar

HOW TO KNOW WHAT APPLICATION HAS OPEN A PDF FORM

Hello,
I would like to know how I can verify that application has opened a certain PDF form (for example Reader or Professional). This checking must be done from the same form when the document is opened (using JavaScript for example).
b Thank you for your time.

Have you seen the example that Lori DeFurio has posted on the developer site to do just this? The javascript example in the form works in both Acrobat and LiveCycle Forms. A sample of the results are:
Viewer Version = 7.05
Viewer Type = Exchange-Pro
Major Form Version = 7
Minor Form Version = 7.07

Hope this helps.

Hi,
When do you get this error ... "No scenario specified". ???
I mean did you try creating an iview for IsrForm Java WD application sending the Scenario name as parameter?
Betn us,
Why dont you try the parameter IFV='P' for IsrFormApprove Java WD application itself. Get to know more about this parameter in these threads...

How do you create a database so that the PDF forms will populate the database as they are submitted?

I am trying to create PDF forms that will be filled out by multiple members of an organization. I would like them to be submitted electronically and then populate a database so that the data does not need to be reentered into a database.
I generally use Microsoft access but certainly know how to use comma separated values (CSV) or Microsoft Excel.
I currently utilize Acrobat Pro X.

Thanks for the info obviously I will need to watch the videos/tutorials on distributing and tracking documents.

Using PDF form as a sales order form on Android device

Hi,
I'm working on a digital sales order form solution, and found Adobe Reader for Android looking to be usefull. However I'm stuck with some questions and hoping to find answers here on the forums.
I don't have a lot of experience with creating PDF's, but I do have sufficient experience with Javascript, so I managed to create form that does some calculations. Everything looks and works alright, but for it to work in the field there are some showstoppers.
The form I've created has 2 signature fields
Here are my issues. Please keep in mind that the user (sales representive) is filling in the form on an Samsung Galaxy Note.
After the form is signed, the user can still make changes to the form. Is there a way to disable this?
The signature default uses very thick lines. How can I force this to 1px default?
The last used signature is stored. How can I disable this? (Customers don't want their signature to be stored, as the sales rep could use that to sign other forms as wel..)
Adobe reader overwrite the original file upon closing. Is there a way to force a 'save as' screen?
Adobe reader allows a user to make comments and write free hand. I'd like to disable this.
(I've tried Document Restrictions, but this ruins the document by removing every form field.. )
I've read something about Adobe LiveCycle server. Could that help me achieve wat I'm looking for?
I hope someone can help me out and explain some of this

Help - Using PDF forms in Livecycle & submitting them by e-mail

Hi
I have prepared a form, which is an interactive pdf, although I was experiencing problems that this wasn't being read by any adobe reader's under version 8.
I've imported my form into Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2, which I have no experience of using and I'm having a few difficulties with.
I need to have people open the form and be able to fill fields out and then when they hit the 'submit by e-mail' button, I need it to attach the entire document including graphics. Currently when this is being hit, its attaching a document in an xml format... looking a little like the below:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <topmostSubform>
<Title />
<Surname />
<First_Names />
<Maiden_Name_if_applicable />
<Nationality />
<Current_Address />
<Post_Code />
Does anyone know how the filled in data can be saved back into the pdf as its current graphical state? My colleagues need to be able to print the form with collected data.
Any help would be much appreciated.

This has been doscussed numerous times on this forum .....here is a link to one of thse discussions:

Any examples that shows PDF and HTML generated by indesign document side-by-side?

I am finding it hard to find example on the net of an indesign generated PDF, and also HTML exported from same document.
I'd like to see how good indesign export to HTML is by comparing the content of the pdf to the HTML side-by-side.
Any one knows if there examples like this on the net anywhere? The more complicated the document the better.
I do not have indesign myself, and was thinking of buying it.

Download InDesign Trial, learn it, then make your tests yourself. Be aware that if you know how to handle styles you will get complete different results. So the first thing you have to do, is to learn styles and no-gos, which are very important in HTML/EPUB export.
(No-gos are e.g. getting space between paragraphs with multiple return or shift return, hard line break, multiple spaces, etc.)
Then you have to know the limitations of HTML compared to PDF.
