Dynamic Tabs & PDF form display cause IE CPU up and PC hang

Hi Experts,
I create dynamic tabs and inside each tab I create interactive form with PDF data inside to display PDF. After running for a while, the CPU goes up and PC hang. What could be the problem for this? (I'm using IE7)
Thanks,

Hi Thomas,
Thank you for your reply!
I've re-designed it in a way that only one instance of Adobe Reader in the current selected tab. Whenever user choose another tab, I remove Adobe Reader from that tab and create in the new selected tab. The problem still exists. I don't know what and where exactly problem is. This is excerpt code in WDDOMODIFYVIEW to remove interactive form first and all tabs later. Do you see any problem with this piece of code?
Be noted that the IE get hang only (CPU 100%) when I run it for a while, meanings select selecte items in view1 and pdf preview in view2, back to view 1 to select other items go to view2 to preview pdf....
data: lo_f             type ref to cl_wd_interactive_form,
         lo_tabstrip type ref to cl_wd_tabstrip,
         lo_tab        type ref to cl_wd_tab,
        ls_pdftab    type wd_this->element_pdftab.
if lo_tabstrip->has_tabs( ) = 'X'.
    " Remove adobe reader in the old tab
    if ls_pdftab-old_tab is not initial.
      lo_tab = lo_tabstrip->get_tab( id = ls_pdftab-old_tab ).
      if lo_tab is not initial.
        lo_f ?= lo_tab->get_content( ).
        if lo_f is not initial.
          lo_f->unset__parent( ).
          lo_f->unregister_from_view( ).
          free lo_f.
        endif.
      endif.
    endif.
    " Remove all tabs
    lo_tabstrip->remove_all_tabs( ).
endif.
Thanks,

How to display or generate PDF417 barcode dynamically in PDF form? I am using Acrobat XI Professional and there is a Bar Code Field in the same through which I generated the same. But I want to generate the same dynamically.

How to display or generate PDF417 barcode dynamically in PDF form? I am using Acrobat XI Professional and there is a Bar Code Field in the same through which I generated the same. But I want to generate the same dynamically.

What do you mean by dynamically? When yo set up a 2D bar code field you specify which field name/value pairs you want to include, along with other parameters. But be aware that they won't work with Reader unless you Reader-enable the document with LiveCycle Reader Extensions and include the bar code usage right. It will work with Acrobat Standard/Pro.

Converting Livecycle Dynamic XML pdf forms to Word?

How do I convert a dynamic XML pdf form created from Livecycle designer ES to Microsoft word? I have Acrobat X and when I click on File -> Save As - > and choose 'Save as type' as "Microsoft Word Document (*.doc)", I am getting this message: "Save as failed to process this document. No file was created."
Is this because its a dynamic XML form with many javascripts in the form design? if not, what could be the cause of this that is making the file not savable to word format? All of these forms are created from Livecycle designer and I have tried using Acrobat X to convert them to word but it doesnt work.

Hi,
don't expect an exact result.
The conversion always is an interpretation of the given layout and may be not perfect in all details.
There is not script you can add to a button to automate this workflow, especially not for Reader, as it doesn't have any export functions.
I tested Adobe ExportPDF services, which are available in Reader XI, but those only export the shell PDF of a XFA form, so it's not usable for those PDF's (image below).

Adobe Reader for Android to work with dynamic XML PDF forms?

Any possibility that Reader for Android will ever work with dynamic XML PDF forms created by Abobe Acrobat Pro?

Is there a way to create a PDF form that ANYONE can fill out and SAVE with their content?

Is there a way to create a PDF form that ANYONE can fill out and SAVE with their content? By anyone, I mean someone who can download and use the free Adobe Reader, on either a Mac or PC. I have Acrobat Pro, and would like to be able to create forms that can not only be filled out and printed, but saved and emailed, which is not an option with the forms I have created to date. They can be filled out, but not saved, with Adobe Reader.
TIA,
Nancy

To do what Dave indicated you need to do, it depends on what version of Acrobat you have:
Acrobat 8: Advanced > Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader
Acrobat 9: Advanced > Extend Features in Adobe Reader
Acrobat 10: File > Save As > Reader Extended PDF > Enable Additional Features
Acrobat 11: File > Save as Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools (includes form fill-in & save)
I wonder what it will be next time?

Someone sends me a PDF form when I fill it out and email it back to them they receive it blank-why?

All the fill-in PDF forms I've used are read/only. Meaning that whatever you fill in does not get stored and saved back with the file.
As Linc suggests, you will be creating a new PDF, that will not have fillable fields but that will contain whatever you filled in.

Issue passing values to text symbols in Dynamic text PDF forms

Hello Everyone,
I am facing a problem related to Dynamic texts in Adobe PDF forms (Text node of type include text). I am able to pass the dynamic values to the Text node properties but i am not able to pass the values to Text symbols inside the Text node. When tested it says the field not found. I have the same structure and field in the CONTEXT as that of the text symbol. The problem i see is because in PDF the field names have $record.(fieldname) ?
Please share your thoughts if anyone has faced similar problem or know how to handle it.
Thanks a million in advance,
Chandu

Open the report up in the Designer and Click on Edit, Subreport Links. Likely what you can do is use Shared Variables to pass values from the main report to the subreport.
You need to do this in the report first. If you are using RAS then you can at runtime. If RAS is not available to you then no way in code.
See these samples:

Also refer to the DSK help files for the Engine or RAS and search on the subreportcontroller.

Dynamically Fill PDF form (extended features enabled forms)

Hi Tarek
Firstly let me say thank you for the great help you are doing through the forum.
With Google, I did a very long search to find out how to fill a PDF form from a database. I achieved this using the iTextSharp dll. But this dll not supporting adobe extended features. thatsy once i filled forms using this class, result form will be flat form and we cant fill it manually again. even this will disable adobe extended features when i open it in adobe reader.
I am working with a project to simplify immigration process (CANADA). I already have all immigration forms created using LiveCycle. That means when i open these form in free Adobe Reader I can fill the form manually and can save locally (offline).
My Workflow as follows
1. I am working with .Net Frame Work 2, Visual Studio 2005, Windows Applications (not Web/ASP)
2. I have fillable forms designed using Adobe LiveCycle (I can fill the form manually and can save locally (offline) using Adobe Reader).
3. I have to dynamically fill these forms with data from a database (data is already available and its almost achieved using iTextSharp Dll)
4. Once its dynamically filled, I will send these forms to client through email, because some of the data should be filled by client.
5. client can open these forms in free Adobe Reader and they can fill and save these forms(because Adobe extended feature enabled in this form, so they can fill and save in Adobe Reader)
6. Once they fill and save the form, they will send back final form to us through emal (no Online Submit required).
7. We will check it and finalize, take printout and attach to our document management system.
8. I can't use any great technologies bcz I dont need any online Submision/Rejection thing and our budjet is low.
9. I am looking some technologies same as itextShar, simply fill data to form and save it as a new PDF, but it should support Adobe Extended Featers( what is currently not available in iTextSharp), so that customer can fill and save it again using simple and free ADOBE READER.
That's it !!
could u please verify my workflow is correct or not, bcz am new to PDF things and can u please suggest me solution to achieve this.
Thanks in advance
Ajo Joseph

iTextSharp doesn't enable usage rights in PDF forms, so any changes will invidate the form.
To bypass the validitiy of the Usage Rights, server the XDP data from the buffer of a web server, and point the File to the PDF on the same web server.
Usage rights will still be enabled, and the form can be saved or downloaded.
Also, please be sure to check out FDFToolkit.net, and PDFEmail.net.

Hope this information can help!

PDF form - Displaying entered data in another field

Hi, I'm hoping someone will be able to help me with this. I'm trying to create a PDF form containing a business card graphic/template with fields that'll update as the user enters his/her data. I wish to use an existing graphic with added fields which are read only, underneath I want to provide fields for the customer to enter their data which is then reflected into the fields of my graphic. Hope this makes some sense! Basically I want the customer to see real time proof of the business card as they update it with their own personal information.
Is this possible?
Thanks for reading.

Thanks for this. I've found a good solution for what i'm trying to do
Placing the script below in the custom calculation script for my Text2 field will copy the contents of Text1 to Text2 this way I can set individual
properties for each field. (I found duplicating the same field means they share the same properties)
{event.value = getField("Text1").value;
Cheers

PDF form display

I created a PDF form, someone filled it out and sent it back. When I open it though, I have to click on the line for the answer to appear and when I click on another box the previous answer disappears. Any suggestions?

That would be a good start yes. They could be using an old version of Reader of one of the many thir
d party PDF readers available that may not work with Acrobat forms.
Also, did you actually use Acrobat to create the form or did you use LiveCycle Designer (it is integrated with Acrobat but creates XML forms rather than standard forms)?

well i created it in Acrobat Professional version 8.0, so it's a PDF
and i assume that they would have opened it in Acrobat Reader.
should i ask what they used to fill it out?

Recently FireFox often has been causing 100% CPU usage and locks up until it finishes the process (various ones). Clearing cookies/cache didn't help. Any ideas?

Windows 2000 SP4, 1g RAM, Firefox 9.0.1
We keep IE6 and Firefox open simultaneously for 2 different mail accounts. Firefox was always much faster even with 3 or 4 tabs open, but for the past couple of weeks when trying to update a screen the CPU suddenly goes to 100% usage and of course nothing will move until the particular process is finished. Closing one or more tabs does not help. If I close Firefox completely with Task Manager CPU usage goes back down to nil. After restarting Firefox CPU usage may or may not go back up depending upon whether it tries to continue the previous task that was locking it up.
It did not do this with Firefox 3.6 but then again it didn't happen immediately after updating to 9.0.1 either.

100% CPU usage occurred most often toward the end of the working day when busy trying to print on-line postage. We don't have any memory-consuming plugins but according to the knowledge base articles Firefox memory usage can gradually increase during the day even if you do nothing. It seems that may be the problem so we close and restart Firefox more often now as that usually fixes the problem. However, if we get stuck on a particular website update that causes the CPU to to go 100%, we can always start Firefox without previous tabs so the update will stop, or simply use a different browser until we have time to let the computer play games with itself.
So our workaround of restarting Firefox turns out to be the final solution (until we find something better - will post it if we do). Vic

2 Questions on PDF Forms. Submit photo from file and templates.

Hey all,
I have successfully turned an outdated Word form into a PDF form. However, there are still two important thing I still want/need to accomplish:
1) Is it possible to create a space on form for the user to add a photo. By that I mean the forms we are dealing with are basically data collection of people, and photos of the people are important. Right now, there is no way for someone to add a photo of the person to the PDF form -- is it at all possible?
2) Can I turn a PDF form into a template much like a Word document? What I would like is for someone to open up the form and when they go to save it, it prompts them to create a name for the file so they don't overwrite the original. Possible?
Thanks in advance for any help or advice.

Yes, depending on the way your users will use the file and whether you have
access to their computers.
In any case, it will require some scripting work.

Why can't I create Fillable PDF Forms using Adobe Acrobat X Pro and upload to Dreamweaver?

I can create fillable PDF Forms using Adobe Acrobat X Pro. I can email them to someone using Adobe Reader (free) and they can fill them, save and email to me. But when I upload the form to Dreamweaver CS5, the form is not fillable. And yes, I saved it as a Reader Extended PDF-Enable Additional Features.

I see no reason for this form to fail in Reader. Some questions for you.
1. On the system with Adobe Reader, what is the system and the version of Adobe Reader?
2. Are you viewing the PDF in a browser on the system with Reader, or in an Adobe Reader window?
3. If it's a browser
(a) what is the browser
(b) if you download the file instead, and open directly in Reader, what happens?

PDF form submission problem - works in Acrobat and Reader, but not when embedded in browser

Hello everyone,
I am trying to submit a PDF form to an application server.
To do this, I added a "Submit" button to the PDF, configured the server's address and submit format, and tested the button.
I opened the PDF in Acrobat Pro, clicked the button, and my web application received the form in PDF format just as I wanted.
To make it work in Reader, I had to extend user rights via Acrobat Pro, and then the form worked inside Reader as well.
Up to here, everything went fine.
Then I embedded the PDF in a web page (which will be the final scenario) and it all stopped working.
The submit button doesn't do anything anymore, and no data is sent to the application server.
I even tried switching from the form's submit mechanism to calling event.target.submitForm(...) in Javascript directly, but nothing changed (meaning this too worked only when opening the form as an "offline" pdf, but not when embedding it in a web page).
Is there something I am missing? Something else that must be configured/activated in order to be able to submit the PDF when it is in the form of an embedded object?
Many thanks in advance,
Alex

Thanks for your reply, Paul.
I tested the submit button both in Reader 9.3 and Acrobat 8 (which is the same I used to RE the PDF).
Apparently I got it working too, but only by deploying my embedding web page to an application server.
The final environment the PDF will be embedded into will be inside a web application deployed to an application server, so I guess my problem is solved.
It didn't work only when embedded into a local test.html web page saved on my PC...
Thanks again, have a good day.
Alex
