Converting PDF forms

Can I convert a "flat" PDF form into a form I can complete and print?

Hello there,
Thanks for posting. To convert a PDF file into a fillable form, you need to have Adobe Acrobat desktop software (it is not possible to do this with Acrobat.com). If you are on a Windows machine, there is a free 30-day trial available here:

Unfortunately, there is no trial available for Mac at this time.
Please let me know if you need more information!
Kind regards,
Rebecca

Converting PDF Forms to Word and Then Back to PDF with Forms In Tact

Hello,
We are currently having a heck of a time replacing some keywords in a collection of about a thousand PDF forms. These forms were created in Word without any interactive functionality and then converted to PDF. The simple form interactions were then added using Acrobat.
We figured out a way to replace all of the keywords by converting the PDF to Word, and then running a Visual Basic macro that does a Find and Replace on all of the documents at once. Our problem is that we lose the functionality of the forms when we convert them to Word. The docs have to be converted back to PDFs, and putting in all of the form interactivity in each file would take far longer than we have.
Is there a better way to go about this than we're attempting?
Is there a way to do these conversions and keep the interactive forms?
We essentially want the forms to behave exactly as they did, just with a few keywords changed.
Thanks for any help you can offer!

If you are going to convert regularly, you may want to subscribe to ExportPDF,

And please don't write your messages in all caps; it makes reading difficult, and in the Internet it is considered the equivalent of shouting.

How to batch convert PDF forms to XML?

We have a PDF form to monitor project progress. Steakholders fill the form and send to main project office. They get about 20 PDFs like this every day.
End of day, these PDFs (all in one format) should be read one-by-one and converted to XML.
How do we do it? Which product/DLLs to use?

Thank you so much . . . yes, the answer "staring me in the face".
Great advice.
After combining the pdf files into a SINGLE document . . . I just selected "SAVE-AS" . . . and selected "jpg" as the format.
Acrobat automatically created 500 individual jpg files.
Thanks again!

URGENT: convert pdf Form to Word Form

Ihave a filled in pdf form and a blank form and I need to convert each to a Word form. acro pro 7 If I had vers 8.0 pro,would the steps be any different?
what is the fastest way to do this? The boss says the pdf form is not flexible enough but I cannot ask her more at this moment.

As long as you have been using Acrobat, I am surprised that your boss would have such a question. I thought of one possibility if the form fields are not retained in WORD, but don't know if it will work. You could try to save as HTML (I usually have best luck with HTML 3) and then open that in WORD. That might give you a back door to keep the form fields in much the same way opening a HTML form in Acrobat retains the form fields. Just a thought if the WORD save does not work.
In terms of flexibility, it is a simple matter to create the form (without fields) in WORD (the master document), make changes, and create a new PDF. Then the modified pages can simply be used to replace those in the old form (don't forget to work on a copy). I guess that is the second idea that is probably the route you were planning to take. Again, bood luck with the boss and with WORD. Bill

Convert pdf form to interactive form

Hi gurus,
i have a pdf form - and i need to convert it to interactive form because i want the user will
fill data.

2.after i convert it - where do i write the data that the user filled (in the interactive form)

Hi
In program
call the function module, which is generated when the adobe form is going to be activating,
WA_FBDOCPARAMS-FILLABLE = 'X'.
CALL FUNCTION fm_nam
EXPORTING
/1BCDWB/DOCPARAMS = wa_fpdocparams
Try this one, It will work.
Thanks

Converting PDF forms from Acrobat to reader, Images won't upload?

Hello,
I've created an editable PDF form in Acrobat and saved it so that the document can be populated in Reader and saved. Only problem is that the functionality to upload an image is not working, you click on it in Reader and nothing happens? I understand that LiveCycle Designer is the one to use, but it only works on Windows, I'm a Mac. Is there a way of saving the PDF in Acrobat Pro so that both the editable text fields and image upload functionality work in Reader?
Thanks

You can try one of the functions in function group SCMS_CONV (or search for others in SE37). My standard process uses older code which still works with SX_TABLE_LINE_WIDTH_CHANGE, then SO_SOLITAB_TO_SOLIXTAB, then
* Convert to XSTRING format
LOOP AT gt_pdf_255x INTO gs_pdf_255x.
ASSIGN gs_pdf_255x TO <fs_line> CASTING TYPE x.
CONCATENATE e_pdfout <fs_line> INTO e_pdfout IN BYTE MODE.
ENDLOOP.

I have imported a PDF form (created in adobe acrobat XI pro) into FormsCentral. I now want to convert this document into a web form so I can embed it into my website. HOW DO I DO THIS?

I took a word document I had created and added fields to it in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro. I then imported the PDF in Forms Central and now I am stuck. All I am able to do with it in FormsCentral is add a submit button. It will not allow me to edit the document in FormsCentral. What I ultimately need to do is get this converted to a web form so that I can embed it into our company website. Additionally, once it's converted, I need to add an option for the user to attach their resume with the file before submitting. I have looked all over the web and I cannot find an answer as to whether or not I can convert PDFs to web forms in FormsCentral. This will ultimately determine whether or not the company decides to purchase these programs after the trial version has ended in a few days.

I tried that first, but FormsCentral does not have the capability to create tables. The form I need to create is more advanced than what FormsCentral allows. Do you know if there is a way to create or somehow import a table when creating a web based form on FormsCentral?

Error in calling/converting smart form from ECC to pdf in portal.

Hi,
We have a requirement in our project where we have to show IT form in portal exactly in the way payslip are shown in ESS
Screen, that is in the pdf form in ess portal screen.
For this my HR abap consultant has made one customize smart form which is being called from a RFC FM.
After the FM lf_fm_name gets executed , the OTF data is being captured and then converted in to PDF.
After that the PDF is then converted into XSTRING format which is then supplied to the portal side through export parameter
of the RFC.
Now when we debugged the RFC, the conversion is taking place perfectly fine in to XSTRING.This is wat we assume.
Portal Side: I have used Iframe ui ELEMENT in my webdynpro java and its property source I have binded with a value attribute
of type string and I am executing above customize RFC given to me by my HR abap consultant and after executing that RFC with
userID and payroll year as its import parameter I am taking export parameter of that RFC with name pdf_string of type XSTRING
of that RFC into my webdynpro java value attribute which i binded to source property of Iframe.
Now when we see the output in portal , first of all pdf is not getting generated and its showing the error message:
file does not begin with '%pdf-' and secondly errored Adobe form getting opened outside Iframe window its not coming within
Iframe window like what payslip comes inside Iframe UI element.
I want to know what mistake we are doing in our ABAP coding or portal coding.
Please help.

Hi Satyam,
You can use the existing SAP GRT framework for developing the app.
Its easy and provides more features.

How to convert a form created in acrobat xi standard to a flat pdf

I have created forms that i wish to fill out myself and e-mail to clients as a flat pdf without the option to edit. From what i have read it looks like i have to add some java codes attached to a "complete or submit" button. Any help in finding this code would be greatly appreciated.

If you want the form "flattened", that is all form fields converted to PDF context, you need to use some JavaScript to flatten the form fields. This will remove all form functionality. It will not prevent editing by Acrobat's text touchup or object tools.
The "submit" button is used by other users to sent the PDF form data to a central collection site or email address where the sender or provider of the form can collect the submitted data.
You could also use a digital certificate to sign the form and lock the fields. The signature will also verify that no changes have been made to the PDF since it was signed and one could also see what was changed.

I'm having trouble converting a Word Form to a PDF form because the table cells are importing incorrectly. How can I fix it?

I am converting a form from Word to PDF. The form includes several tables and the tables are converting with weird lines where the corners meet. I've tried everything. I've even retyped a portion of the form and tried importing it but it still had the weird lines. I'd rather not recreate the form in PDF because it's not short and I already have a perfectly good form to import. Any suggestions?

What version of Word? What version of Acrobat? How exactly are you converting the file?
