Countdown timer in adobe form from a field and pop-up warnings

I have created a form in adobe livecycle and I would like to add a Countdown timer that clicks off when a user enter's a time. I need the countdown timer to be 2 hours from the entered time. The user will have 2 hours to complete the form. I need warning boxes that will pop up at 30 minutes and at 15 minutes. If not completed in the 2 hour time frame from when the time was entered then the form will prompt to close.
I have found where the timer starts from the start or stop button but I would like it to start from when the time field is excited.
I am new to form scripting and any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Do you mean the JavaScript methods setTimeout(), clearTimeout(), setInterval() and clearInterval() ???
I don't think these methods will work within Adobe LiveCycle forms.

Adobe forms from scratch - Standard programs?

Hi,
I have just begun trying to implement Adobe forms from scratch at my company. Previosly we have used an external printing solution so I can't convert anything. My plan is to create a new output medium and let the users select the new type by themself. But I have a couple of questions:
1. How do I create a new medium (Examples: Print output/Fax/Telex, as found in t-code NACT - Processing routines)
2. I guess there are SAP standard printing programs, interfaces and forms, but I can't find them. I need to be able to print all the usual docs from orders, deliveries and invoices. All I have in NACT are old home-made (Z*) programs so if you know what SAP think we should use now, please let me know!
We have ERP6 ehp4 on netweaver 7 ehp1 and I have created one "Adobe form" myself so I can confirm that it works. but I don't want to invent the wheel twice...
Thanx in advance!

Hi Linus,
I was wondering if you had a moment to comment on an opportunity that I am having regarding Adobe forms development efforts?
If so, please read on:
Our offshore team has worked on a development effort to replace Smart Forms PO's and Contracts with Adobe forms. They created new output types for these Adobe forms. In testing I noticed that the only way I can get them to print - is if I go into Print Preview and print -or- use SP01 and click on the .pdf icon and print. In both cases it uses Adobe Acrobat to perform the actually printing.
We cannot seem to get them to print using the normal SAP message utility. Our users would expect to continue to:
1. Use the Messages button while in the PO document - and select the new output type along with Meduim= Printed Output...
2. Then they select Further data button - to specify Send Immediately.
3. Then they use the Communication Method tab and specify the Logical Destination (as LOCL) and click on the Check box for Print immediately.
They get what appears to be an rambling of Adobe error lines followed by many blank pages....
At this point I am not sure if the print program is working correctly - or if the problem is with Adobe Document Services?
Have you ever encountered a situation like this during your Adobe development efforts?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Regards,
Steve

Call XML Schema based Adobe form from ABAP Program

Hi,
I have a scenario where an online Interactive form is designed and its working fine. Now i have a requirement to call the same Adobe form from a report for viewing purpose. Since it is XML Schema based Interface, is it possible to call the same form instead of creating a new one with the same template? Because i tried to call the same Adobe form by passing the values and converting those to XML(By Creating Transformation). Then i converted the XML to XSTRING and passed to the Generated Function Module for Input paramter "/1bcdwb/docxml". This resulted in an error "com.adobe.ProcessingException: com.adobe.Processin".
Please help me out in solving this and check the attachment for code.
Thanks,

Default email subject for Adobe Form from Netweaver Guided Procedure

Hi everyone.
When we generate an Adobe form from a Netweaver Guided Procedure, a default subject of "Interactive Form {xxxxxxxx}" is used where xxxxxxxx is the Process ID of the Guided Procedure. Is this default subject configurable? Where can I change it?
If we define a custom email template for the form, the subject of the email becomes our custom subject concatenated with the Process ID. Where is it defined that the Process ID must be included in the email subject?
Thanks,
.. Craig

Hello,
I have no experience regarding the table of pictures, but you could try a workaround if you don´t insist of displaying the images. You could attach the pictures as attachments (you know, the little attachments icon on the left in your Reader). The ABAP coding for this can be found in SE38 FP_* and when you check the descriptions you should be able to find the one working with the attachments.
Would be better than nothing I guess,

What are the security settings to lock down a form with fillable fields and yet allow someone with Reader to fill in the fields as will as save the form and print it?

What are the security settings to lock down a form with fillable fields and yet allow someone with Reader to fill in the fields as will as save the form and print it?

You want to allow someone to open your document and fill out the form (in the fields you have created), but not change or edit the form, right? Here's the answer - assuming you are using Acrobat Pro and someone will be opening the PDF using at least Acrobat Reader 9 and up:
Tools > Protection > Encrypt < Encrypt with Password
Answer YES to change the security.
A new window opens:
     Do NOT select Document Open (or that will require a password to open the document.)
     Select: Permissions (Check the box next to "Restrict editing and printing of the document.")
     Change the following 2 settings from the drop-down box:
          Printing Allowed: Select High Resolution
          Changes Allowed: Select Commenting, filling in form fields, and signing signature fields
          Leave selected: "Enable text access for screen reader devices for the visually impaired"
          Change Permissions Password (insert a strong password)
          Leave all other settings alone in "Options"
          OK - OK
          Re-enter the Permissions Password (the one you entered above)
          OK - OK
          Save the PDF to apply the security [notice that (SECURED0 will appear after the document title]

sounds more like Bluetooth rather than moue, but w/o knowing w/o posting mac model type/year we... will... not... know... what you have
All computers are personal computers, a PC though is also "non-Apple" in common usage.
Mac also is platform and OS.
Very confused reading what you are trying to tell us.
