Assemble static XFA-Based pdf with NoForms or NoXFA error: PageException: PDFM_S19003

Hello
I have a PDF which I generated with LC Forms (LC ES 8.2).
Now I am trying generate new flat PDF on Assembler service using the following DDX:
<DDX xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/DDX/1.0/">
<PDF result="out.pdf">
<PDF source="cabtf1-forpdfgenerated-STATIC.pdf" />
<NoXFA/>
</PDF>
</DDX>
I tried also to use <NoForms/> tag instead of <NoXFA>, and in both cases, this particular PDF I gives the following error:
out.pdfcom.adobe.internal.pdfm.util.PageException: PDFM_S19003: Failed to find a matching SVG named color for "2"
The full stack trace is:

Any ideas? ... Not find the error code PDFM_S19003 how I can solve it?
Thanks.

Actually, it had nothing to do with a SVG named color. It had to do with the fact that my DDX statement
<DDX source='doc_source' pages='2-last' />
expects 2 pages and it was only supplied a 1 page document.
I had to add a couple steps at the beginning of my processing to fetch how many pages the PDF had and then determine whether to add the additional pages.

Livecycle not publishing pdf with global/non global error

Hi there,
I'm new to LiveCycle, and I hope someone can help me at least diagnose my problem.
For several days I've have successfully been building a standard form, including many text entry boxes which are repeated throughout the document - as an example, I have a box for the person's name, which is then repeated thbroughout the document as a neader name on a master page.
I have set each and every field to global, so that I can utilise this.
The latest thing I did was attempt to build a table that has a button on one row allowing the user to add another row to the table. I tired to publish this (create a dymamic pdf), but I got the following error when opening the pdf:
1. Dialogue box with: can't be defined as global field and a non-global field - okay button
2. Dialogue box again with: can't be defined as global field and a non-global field - okay button
followed by the page in acrobat reader with:
Please wait...
If this message is not eventually replaced by the proper contents of the document, your PDF
viewer may not be able to display this type of document.
You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader for Windows®, Mac, or Linux® by
visiting http://www.adobe.com/go/reader_download.
For more assistance with Adobe Reader visit http://www.adobe.com/go/acrreader
so, thinking it was something I'd done wrong specifically with the previous table I removed it... only to find that the problem still persists.
Can anyone at least start me off here as the previous version is a long way down the chain
Thanks,
Sunil

In the end I gave up and manually added each section of my form bit by bit from a back -up. I found the offending table - however, even when deleting it from the file that didn't work it would still bring up the aforementioned error.
Anyway, it's back working again.

AR 9.X Crashing IE (6 and 7) when opening PDF with sw:iexplore - Application Error

The majority of my systems are having a problem with Acrobat Reader 9.0 and 9.1.
When they click on a PDF from within IE the browser crashes with the following error:
sw: iexplore.exe - Application Error
The instruction at '0x051251b6" referenced memory at '0x00000010". The memory could not be "read".
Running AR 8 causes no difficulty, however I have an organizational requirement to have addressed the in-the-wild vulnerability of AR by March 18th for 100% of my client systems. And Adobe is holding on to those versions until the 18th.
So I _have_ to install 9.1 on 300 systems in the next 36 hours.
If I take the check mark out of 'Display PDF in Browser' it works fine. The problem with this solution is that there are certain web sites and applications that departments here use which absolutely requires that the PDF be integrated within the browser - so taking Display PDF in Browser is not a universal solution.
I have tried the following key to no luck:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat\Exe]
@="\"C:\\Program Files\\Adobe\\Reader 9.0\\Reader\\AcroRd32.exe\""
On a couple of machines opening up Reader and closing it first while having admin rights clears up the problem - but not for the majority of my systems.
I've tried repairs, reinstalls, full reloads and reboots to very little luck.
It's is for various PDF files from different sites, and it's the same ones that work for the small number of systems not experiencing a problem.
Any suggestions would be welcome.

> Adobe is holding on to those versions until the 18th.
The 18th is tomorrow, so why not wait for it?

The current version of LC Assembler does not allow you to merge more than one XFA based PDF into a single document while retaining the document's interactivity. You can have one XFA based PDF but it must be flagged as the baseDocument (an attribute on the PDF tag). You can still merge other XFA documents, but you must first remove the "XFAness" from the PDF using the NoXFA or NoForms tag in the PDF Source.(the result is that these documents are no longer interactive). I see from your DDX that the second PDF input has its "XFAness" removed, but the first does not. I added the baseDocument attribute to your DDX and it works fine: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <DDX xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/DDX/1.0/"> <PDF format="XDP" result="package.pdf"> <PDF source="PDF2.pdf" baseDocument="true"/> <PDF source="PDF1.pdf"> <NoForms /> </PDF> </PDF> </DDX>

Create a PDF with DDX that can be converted to PCL by generatePrintedOutput

Hi all,
I have a scenario that puzzles me a bit.
I have some forms that are Interactive forms (stored as XDP with the property Dynamic XML Form).
I need to assemble these xdp-forms (and fill them with data) and add it all up in one PDF. This PDf should be converted to PCL and later shipped off to a printer. However I see a conflict in doing this by using the Invoke DDX and generatePrintedOutput services.
I can easily create my PDF, but to make it work I have to include the <NoForms> tag in my DDX. However when I do this I end up with a non xfa-based PDF. When I try to pass this to the generatePrintedOutput service it complains that the form is not XFA-based.
If I then remove my <NoForms> tag from my DDX I get the error from Assembler telling me that "the baseDocument cannot be assembled becasuse it is an XFA-based form".
What am I doing wrong? Could you elaborate a little on the behavior of these two services.
I have found the link to the documentation on page 38 in http://help.adobe.com/en_US/livecycle/9.0/ddxRef.pdf, however I don't think it tells me what is wrong.
Please advice
Thanks in advance

Open in PS and print to the Adobe PDF printer. However, a 448MB TIFF seems huge. At 200 dpi and 24 bit color (millions of colors) that leaves you with a 61inX61in graphic. Even at 600dpi, that is 20X20.
For us to help you, please indicate exactly how you are trying to convert from PhotoShop. For Acrobat, are you trying to open the TIFF in Acrobat directly? Is the TIFF a single sheet, or multiple sheet? There are a lot of unanswered questions for us.
One of the limitations on file size is the size of the temporary PS file that is created in the PDF creation process. This PS file is created in the TEMP folder that is limited by MS. So you might try emptying the TEMP folder.

Can't download or open a fillable pdf with Windows 8.1 - desperately need help!

My son is working on a Boy Scout Eagle project. He recently got a computer with Windows 8.1. I also have Windows 8.1 on my computer. Neither of us are able to open the Eagle service project workbook fillable pdf form he already started and emailed to himself from his old computer or to download a new form from the BSA website. The latest version of Adobe pdf reader (11) is installed on both our machines. Here is the page from which we are to download the form:
Eagle Scout Service Project Workbook Procedures
Can anyone help us?

Have you tried opening the PDF directly from Adobe Reader? Windows 8.1 included Microsoft Reader, which is far less capable than Adobe Reader, and can't work with XFA-based PDF forms like the one you're trying to use.

Below error message:
The document you are trying to load

For dynamic forms its working by adding <NOXFA/> in

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.

Can't export a PDF with XFA form

Cannot convert/export a PDF document containing an SFA form - can this program not do this?

Hi Morin27,
XFA forms are not regular PDF's but XML files in a PDF shell.
To create a word file from those files, you first have to flatten the XFA forms by printing as PDF with the Adobe PDF Printer.
Then you can save using ExportPDF the created static PDF as Word document.

PDF with XFA elements

how do i convert a pdf with XFA elements to word?

Something to try.
Open with LCD.
Save as "static" PDF.
Close out of LCD.
Launch Acrobat XI Pro - Open PDF - Save As Other to MS Word.
Or, having subscribed to Adobe's online service (PDF Pack or ExportPDF) sign in to your subscription and send the PDF through the pipe.
Or, print to paper. Scan then use Acrobat or the appropriate online service (perhaps PDF Pack) to get an OCR'd PDF.
Then export to a Word file via Acrobat or the online service.
Be well...

Problem opening Form based PDF via Safari browser with Adobe Reader 9.3 on MAC

Hi,
I'm mentioning below the problem that we are facing when we open a form based PDF created using a licensed version of Adobe Livecycle Designer ES (Version 8.2.1.4029.1.523496) on a MAC machine through a Safari Browser.
We tested this PDF form on a windows machine and the PDF opens in an IE browser via the latest Adobe reader 9.3 without any problem. I then received complaints by our clients that they were unable to open the same PDF on their Safari browser on a MAC machine, I tried to resolve the problem by downloading the latest version of Adobe Reader 9.3 for MAC but noticed that the Safari browser window would just keep refreshing the page without displaying the PDF at all. I then uninstalled the Adobe Reader 9.3 version and downloaded and installed an older version i.e., Abobe Reader 8.2 version for MAC and noticed that the PDF document successfully opened in the Safari browser. My question is why does a form based PDF work with an older version of Adobe Reader for MAC and not with the latest version? Our clients are not comfortable with the fact that we are refraining them from upgrading to the latest version of Adobe Reader for MAC and that they would have to downgrade their existing Adobe Reader 9.3 to a lower version Adobe Reader 8.2 in order for the PDF forms to work when it should be the other way around.
Is there any fix or a patch that is currently being worked on that would resolve this issue in the latest Adobe Reader for MAC? If yes then when would it be ready? This issue is quite critical for our business and would appreciate it if this would be looked into with high priority.
Thanks and Regards,
Sheikh Huraiz Ahmed.

That suggestion makes sense and likely works, but only if the user is on a machine that will allow them to use Reader. I'm sending this out to a lot of teachers, who are using machines either at school, or are school-issued machines, and they don't have the admin privileges to install software-- even Reader.
so my problem is, if they are stuck on a machine without Reader, and without the possibility of having Reader... it's just not going to work because Preview can't handle these functions.
And, since that is not an acceptable answer with what I'm trying to do... I will find another way to create/submit forms. I think there are some online possibilities I will have to make work.
very, very disappointing and frustrating.

X Pro and Flash Player Error with web-based PDF readbook

Everytime I try to view a web-based PDF book (with multiple PDF files) I get an error/alert that reads:
"To View the Flash technology content in this PDF file, please install this version of Flash Player that supports Adobe Reader and Acrobat."
I am currently using:
IE Explorer 9.0.8112.16421
Adobe Reader X 10.1.7
Adobe Acrobat X Pro 10.1.4
Shockwave 12.0.2 Development
I have all of the appropriate settings enabled/disabled in the browser. Before I installed Adobe Acrobat Pro the files opened perfectly in IE9. I believe, but am unsure, that I was just using Reader X at that point.
Of note...the PDF books in question still open perfectly if I DOWNLOAD the file and open it from the desktop. The issue is when I try to view it in the browser(a setting enabled in the preferences). This is an issue because I don't have the time or space to download these files and need to view them in the browser for efficiency.

JohnPublic wrote:

You would usually get this message if you don't have the Flash Player plugin installed. However I do not quite understand why you get that message when viewing a PDF in the browser, but not when viewing it from your local disk.

PDF with XFA forms to excel or word?

I am trying to convert pdfs with XFA forms in them to an excell document but get an error message stating that documents with XFA forms cannot be converted into this format. Any way around this? Any way to remove XFA forms? Im pretty lost.

If you removed the XFA forms there would be nothing left. XFA forms are a complete replacement for normal PDF - a different kind of form, pretending to be a PDF. There's very little you can do with them, except fill them in, or export form data. Maybe print-to-PDF?
Beware if these are official/government forms. Converting them will usually leave them invalid and your application unacceptable.
