Creating Bookmarks in Livecycle Designer 7.1

Greetings All,
Is it possible to create bookmarks in Livecycle Designer 7.1 and link it to pages, sections within pages and text fields. If it is possible, could anyone show how to do that, provide examples or a reference on how to do that. Appreciated your help.
Thanks.

Hi Muhammad,
I am not sure about availability of bookmarks in LiveCycle Designer 7.1. But you have setFocus method available in designer. This method you can use to set the cursor position.
Syntax for this method is:
xfa.host.setFocus("xfa[0].form[0].form1[0].#subform[2].TextField2[0]");
Regards,
Amit

How do I create Bookmarks in LiveCycle Designer?

I've created a fillable form using Adobe Live 8 Pro, I distribute the form using Acrobat. I haven't found a way to create bookmarks in LiveCycle so I create them using Acrobat first before I distribute the form...Is there another way?
The problem I'm running into with this approach is that I cannot auto-enable the bookmarks when the PDF is opened because File > Properties > Initial View is disabled.
So given that I've created a form using Adobe Live, what do I have to do to get bookmarks to launch in the initial view?
Does anyone out there know how to do this?
thanks in advance.

Thanks. I have a Mac and had to do one more step, which was to go to the top line of symbols, click on the cog wheel (organize bookmarks) and then select "new folder." You got me in the right place to start looking.

Hi Hoser117,
Have you considered using a LiveCycle Designer PDF form? LiveCycle Designer comes in the box with Acrobat 9 Pro. Here's are links to some videos from acrobatusers.com that show how to create expandable/flowable tables and fields in a LiveCycle Designer PDF form-

Additional Information
The form was created 10 or 11 months ago, and we are pretty sure that we were able to open it a while back
The same PDF file opens just fine in Windows 8.1 using Adober Reader XI 11,0.06, it is only the app that is affected.
The document cannot be opened by any other mobile app that we have tried or on another mobile OS (iOS)
Any ideas?
Thanks & Regards

The user's assertion is surprising to me, but perhaps I'm missing something important. I thought the correct position was from the conclusion of my earlier post "it can't be done". Adobe state their Reader Touch doesn't support XFA (http://blogs.adobe.com/readermobile/2012/12/13/adobe-reader-for-windows-8-tablets/). Unless (see that blog entry) you changed the type of form.

Will I ever be able to open a PDF on my iPad that is created by Adobe LiveCycle Designer.

I cannot open a PDF on my iPad that was created by Adobe LiveCycle designer ES 10.0. Will this ever be a possibility?

What does Adobe say?

Created form in Livecycle Designer 8, send to 2nd party to complete some fields, want to lock those fields so that when sent to 3rd party to complete cannot edit

I am a newby to this product and have created a form from a PDF. I used Adobe Livecycle Designer to place text fields in form. I saved, then enabled user rights. I sent to 2nd party to open in Adobe reader. This person needs to populate some of the fields. Once this is done the 2nd person is to email to 3rd person who will complete the outstanding fields and return the form to the second person.
How do I stop the 3rd person from editing the text the second person put in the form?
I want the second person to receive the complete form back not just the responses put in the text fields? Does this happen automatically or do you have to tell it send complete form.
Thanks from Sandra in Australia

How do you save the file? Do you directly send it via mail with a button? (If the question is silly I'm sorry, because I have no lincenses... so I am completly unaware of the choices you have.)
You need to be able to save a file Reader Extension licenses I think...
Probably you should ask for the fake E-Mailbutton, to be able to send it to different people one after the other...
Make an invisible Decimalfield.
The preSave/preSubmit field javascript...:
this.rawValue = this.rawValue + 1
if (this.rawValue > 0)
{Decimalfield1.access="readOnly";}
if (this.rawValue > 1)
{Decimalfield2.access = "readOnly"}
will lock decimalfield1 after the first save/submit and decimalfield2 after the second. Normally that should do the job.
PS: Another way to save the document and lock ALL fields, you don't have to buy additional licenses is print it as pdf.

Fillable Forms Created with Adobe LiveCycle Designer 7.0

I created a fillable form using Adobe LiveCycle Designer 7.0. Prior to using the form for clients we sent it around to numerous people to make sure it's working properly. We have experienced problems with users that are using older versions of Reader or full versions of Acrobat (5.0 & 6.0). Some problems we have had:
1.) We understand you cannot save the filled out form in older versions, but some users are not even able to print the form (the program shuts down). When the form is opened in an older version it lets the user know that they cannot save the form and it must be printed if they need a copy, but we had one user using version Acrobat version 7.0 that received this message.
2.) Users with full versions of Acrobat 7.0 have been able to fill out the form and save it, but when the form gets back to us it is blank.
3.) Users with Acrobat and Reader 7.0 cannot use the print button, it just does not work.
We were looking to see if there is a way of saving a fillable form down to an older version to see if this can solve our problem. I have not had any luck finding out how to do that. If anyone knows how to do this could you let me know? If not I guess we will go back to the old fashioned way of having the user print the form and fill it out.
Thank you!

I'm actually having the exact same problem. I imported a form into Designer 7.0 as an Adobe Reader 6.0 "compatible" form. At first, there were several warning messages in various fields but I changed all of these fields so that they would be compatible. The form works in 6.0, however, whenever a user initially opens the form in 6.0 a message pops up promting the user to upgrade to 7.0 for the form to work. Over half of our users are running Adobe Reader 6.0 so any information on how to prevent this dialouge from coming up would be very appreciated.
Thank you,
Jeff

Having Problems Seeing your LiveCycle Designer Forms on the iPAD Adobe Reader App?

I'm not a computer wize and very new to Adobe and creating forms with LiveCycle. So apologize to anyone that reads this and says "duh", but hopefully it will be helpful to someone out there who is struggling like I was.
First off - the IPad will will definitely be able to view your livecycle forms regardless of what anyone else says! These were my steps;
1. Create form in LiveCycle Designer.
2. When you save, select "save as"
3. When the dialogue box opens, and you are creating the name of what you are going to call your file, below you will see a drop down box labeled "Save As Type". Make sure you switch the file type to "Adobe Static PDF Form (*.pdf)"
And that's it!
Here is another tip for a user like me:)
I need to create a form to post to a website, where people fill it in and save it to their computers. I found that when I just saved the form straight from LiveCycle Designer and then posted, some of the free adobe versions wouldn't let the user fill it in. So this is what I did,
1. Follow the first 3 steps I listed above.
2. Next open Adobe (the full version) not the reader. I have Adobe X.
3. Got to "Save As". It will give you a bunch of options. Select "Reader Extended PDF" and then "Enable Additional Features"
Add that should be it!
One more tip for the average to low level user. We had some feedback that when someone open my form in the iPad app. they were not able to fill it in. They could, but what they didn't realize was they needed to select the icon at the top that is a little picture of a speech bubble and pencile.

Yup. I filled in the form and made a bunch of comments, closed the app and everything I had filled in on the form was still there. I also tried emailing the filled in form to myself and opening it. The comments and filled in sections don't appear when I open it in my email viewer, but as long as I open it in the adobe app everything is still there.
Now all I have to do is to convince my web guy not to be mad when I Tell him he has to repost all my files (JK) ;)

How to automate filling of a multiple lines pdf document created by Adobe LiveCycle

Hello to all.
I have a pdf document which was created by Adobe LiveCycle Designer 11.0. This document inittialy contains a single line but we can add as much lines as we need.
I have to fill this document lines with information from MS Excel 2007 worksheets (more than 3000 lines/Week). I have tried a lot of techniques and tools but was never able to automate the process.
Can someone please let me know if there is a way to automatically copy the data from Excel to the pdf document?
Thanks in advance for any kind help.

Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.0 exporting data from adobe data set into Excel

Hello - I am new to this, and have no IS support from my organization, so I am at your mercy.
I am trying to export the files within my adobe dataset created from Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.0 into an Excel file. When I do this only 126 files are transferred. There doesn't seem to be any particular cut off or reason. For example last names a-p file entries #1-126, then cuts off at file entry #127 leaving the last half of the alpha q-z. I do have one friend is IS whom on his free time, looked into the program to see if there was a setting or something that only allowed a certain amount of space/files to be exported, but he couldn't find anything. His only thought was that my computer didn't have enough space, but I have 18.9GB of free space on the C:. Any sugesstions and or help is greatly appreciated! Thanks, ALR

I select all, click the Export Button, and it only gives me the option to save as a CVS Excel type file, sometimes it exports files, other times it wont, when it does, it only does 126 lines in Excel, then won't let me add any more with a second export attempt.
