Dynamic Text in Adobe forms

hi all,
I am working o adobe forms, i have to print a paragraph text which has both dymanic and static elemets in it. By putting all the text in a static text it works fine, but allignment does not happen properly.
do we have something like &.....& we have in smartforms.???
I saw in a example in which the variable was used as { } and that was dynamically filled at run-time... but i am not able to do the same...may be i am missing some settings or something...
Any help will be appreciated....in this regard.

Merging of cells of a dynamic table in adobe form

Hi,
I am trying to Merge 2 columns in a dynamic table in adobe form.The requirement is to merge column 3 and column 4 if column 4 is empty. I used the below javascript code in both "Form ready " and Initialize event of the row.
if (this.Cell4.rawValue == " ")
this.Cell3.colSpan = "2";
this.Cell4.presence = "hidden";
Note : Since above code was not working , i used the below code in my subform also but it did not returned desired output.
if(Table22.Row1.Cell1.rawValue == " ")
Table22.Row1.Cell3.colSpan = "2";
Table22.Row1.Cell4.presence = "hidden";
The problem is that in my dynamic table , its the second row where the requirement is fulfilled ie in the 2nd entry of my table the column4 is blank (the exact row number might change depending on input data).
is there a way to loop in the dynamic table and check if column 4 is empty for a particular row.
the above code does not help to fulfill my requirements. kindly help.
Thanks
Aditi

Formatting Issues with SO10 text in Adobe forms

Hi Everyone,
I Have the below text maintained in SO10.
"Thank you for choosing Enterprise. We look forward to seeing you at 9:00 am on Monday, November 28, 2011. This message is to confirm you have updated your reservation. Following are the details for the updated reservation:
P.S. Remember us when you're renting in town. Enterprise is always nearby at more than 6,500 neighborhood locations."
I have created an text module of type include text in Adobe form context. the text which has to be bold is not being displayed as bold and the line space after first paragraph is being skipped out and the 2nd paragraph is being displayed as the continuation of the first. The out put looks as below
"Thank you for choosing Enterprise. We look forward to seeing you at 9:00 am on Monday, November 28, 2011. This message is to confirm you have updated your reservation.

I tried Styles using SE72 on the SO10 text. And I cannot assign smartform styles on SO10 text in Adobe forms.
Greatly appreciate your suggestions and solutions.

Standard Text IN ADOBE Forms

Hi,
Can you tell me how to use standard text in ADOBE forms,
and how to fetch A Customs Tariff Number or an HTS (Harmonized Tariff System)
from other system.

Hi Oliver,
I believe you standard text is a table type of TDLINES.
On the form you would display it with a table of 1 column 1 row with repeat row ticked.
Have the like below code on the fomr ready event of your table.
for(var i =0; i<this.Row1.nodes.length;i++)
 if(i == 1){
 this.Row1.Cell1.font.fill.color.value = "255,0,0";
 this.Row1.xx.font.fill.color.value = "255,0,0";
Note: in my example I had a table with one row names Row1 and 2 fields cell1 type textbox, & xx as text / label.
If its like you have it in a text box with multiple entries, we need to spli the value such that 1st row is displayed in a text box whose parameters are by defeult set to font red, and rest of them to this text area.
If your procedure is table the code sud work, else let me know how you get data and how do you display it on the screen.
Cheers,
Sai

Can I color a line of "standard text" in adobe forms output?

Simple question: Can I color a line of "standard text" in adobe forms output?
My standard text (SO10) has multiple lines.
Can I make one of the lines red?

Using formats of SO10 text in Adobe forms

Hello guys,
I got a question concerning the interaction of SO10 texts with adobe form text fields.
I know there are some threads about it here, and I think I understand the default SAP behavior, but can you please confirm if I am right? Then I got a special question about one case.
So is it right that there is only the difference between formatting the textfield itself in adobe form layout and adding a style to the text field in form context?
This means:
(1) Whenever in my text field in form context no style is added, the adobe form will take the formatting like it is done in the adobe form layout? This would mean that every format which is entered in the SO10 text is insignificant for the adobe form?
(2) Whenever in my text field a style is added, SAP will use SO10 text formats? This means, SAP searches for the smartforms style which is entered in the textfield and uses the formats from SO10 text like they were defined in the smartforms style?
Is this correct so far?
Now the special questions:
(1) What happens if a style is added, but the style does not exist as smartforms style. Which font etc. will be used then?
(2) What happens if a style is added, but the format of SO10 text does not exist in the smartform style?
In both cases it looks like SAP takes some "default" style, but where does it come from?
Thanks a lot!
Regards
Michael

Static text in Adobe forms

Hello Experts,
I have requirement to create a adobe form which have 90% of static text .I want to know to display those text should i go with standard text(SO10) ot should i directly display it in text-field on the form layout.Or there is any other way to display.
Which is best? Kindly suggest.
Thank you,
Shweta

Hi Shweta,
I started working on adobe in late 2010. I prefer and would personally go for SO10 instead of adding text in text-field. Adding texts under one TextName would give a clear picture for further enhancements instead of adding the texts one by one in text fields.
We do have a Wiki on SCN about adding static texts to adobe forms using SO10. Here it goes:

How to display Formatted text in adobe form

In adobe form, I want to display the text which is inputed by formatted text edit in WD ABAP application.
It is always displayed as plain text like 'this is test text.'. I have set the attribute Data Format to XHTML, Field Format to Rich Text for the Text Field in adobe form. But it doesn't work.
How to display these formatted text?
Thanks and Best Regards,
Jun

Hi Juergen,
I found Your blog and found it really interesting... though I was not able to use it: I (like Jun Li is asking, I guess) need to use a dynamic text, containing formatting informations (according the xhtml syntax).
I tried to pass it to the form by an ABAP-dictionary based interface and by means of the context (in a webdynpro page), but both tries failed.
Some suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
Thankyou

Multiple images into a subform in a dynamic non-interactive adobe form

I want to convert a set of images into a PDF (one page for each image) with Webdynpro. I'm trying with a non-interactive adobe form.
I followed the tutorial "Dynamic Non-Interactive PDF Form".
I've got a multiple Context node: 'Images' with a string attribute 'url' for each image.
In the form, I've created subform1, and subform2 within. I put an image field into subform2, setting its url to: $record.Images[*].url
and its script to: this.value.image.href = xfa.resolveNode(this.value.image.href).value;
It doesn't work.
If I add a field into subform2 binding it to url attribute, I can see some lines with the correct path for each image, but the image isn't displayed.
It works with a single dynamic image in the page. What am I doing wrong?
Regards
Anibal Pozo.

No. It's form scripting. In any case I'm working with Webdynpro Java.
I tried this code in table 'initialize' event.
for int=0 upto $record.nImages do
Table1.Row1[int].ImageField.value.image.href = $record.Images[int].url;
Table1.Row1[int].Cell4.value.#image.href = $record.Images[int].url;
endfor
Cell4 is a static image.
In 04SP9, it show always the same image in the image field (first column), and alternating image in cell4 (second column).
In 04sSP6, it shows always the same image in all the rows in both columns.
Any idea? I didn't find any OSS related.

Populate Default Dynamic Filename In Adobe Form (On Click of Save in Menu) - SAP

Hi,
We have a scenario in which we want to populate the file name dynamically in Adobe form integrated in SAP Webdynpro.
Scenario -
A adobe form has been intergrated in the SAP webydnpro application which opens the form in Web Browser (IE).
There is a save button which is part of standard adobe form menu and on click of that save button (circled - 1 in image ) the name of the form ( i.e techincal name of adobe form created in SAP {ZTESTSS} ( circled - 2 in image ) appears.
We want to change the default name to (employee_date_time ) on click of save.
We have found a approch by using the folder level javascripts (http://forums.adobe.com/message/2266799#2266799%232266799).
In case we use folder level scripts "where should we write the JavaScript code in the Adobe Form to trrigger the this script on click of Save Button (in the menu)?"
Also is there any other apporch which does not require folder level javascript as its a security issue also we need to maintain in all the user systems.
Please let me know the approch to address the issue.
Thanks .
Tausif

Hi,
you can't change the behavior of the save button in the browser nor in Reader/Acrobat.
You can add a custom button within your form which calls a custom script from a folder level script using the browserForDoc method.
The browseForDoc methos is the only one whcih can change the name in the saveAs dialog.
Here's an example., you can run from Acrobat console.
You need to combine it with the solution from the other thread to make it work with your form.
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2266799#2266799%232266799
var oRetn = app.browseForDoc({
    bSave: true,
    cFilenameInit: "MyForm.pdf",
    cFSInit: "",
if (typeof oRetn !== "undefined") {
    this.saveAs({
        cFS: oRetn.cFS,
        cPath: oRetn.cPath,
        bPromptToOverwrite: false

Text in ADOBE form not printing while printing the form

Hi All,
I have created an adobe form and am trying to trigger an output linked to the form. The problem is that the output that gets triggered does not show some of the texts which are existing in the form.
So although the values are coming correctly the overall output becomes incorrect as the text goes missing. Let me know if you have any pointers to the issue I am facing.
Cheers,
Sharadendu

Hi Sharadendu,
First of all you need to put this question in Adobe Form related Forums.
Problems can be many in this case.
1: Overflow subform not selected.
2: Some condition failing in the text or subform.
3: Incorrect nesting of subforms.
Mainly your problem will be with the subforms , so you need to croos check all the subforms which you have used to hold data.

Sandeep Katoch
