    E_FUNCNAME                 = funcname.
* Fill interactive flag here
docparams-fillable = 'X'.
CALL FUNCTION func_name
EXPORTING
    /1BCDWB/DOCPARAMS        = docparams

Editing online interactive forms using Acrobat XI Pro

Our organization recently purchased Adobe Acrobat XI Pro in hopes of using it to create and convert many of our forms to electronic format. We recently tried opening an existing online interactive form to edit it and it says "This form cannot be edited in Acrobat. Please use Adobe LiveCycle Designer to edit this form". Did we purchase the wrong product for what we are trying to do? I'm in panic mode because we are very new to this type of editing and I hope we didn't purchase the wrong thing. Any suggestions?

There are two kinds of PDF forms: Acrobat forms and LiveCycle Designer
forms. The latter are actually XML files and can only be edited in
LiveCycle Designer, which used to be bundled with Acrobat Pro but is not
any more. If your forms were created in LCD then you need to purchase that
application as well if you want to edit them.

Does it make any difference if you are editing an interactive form with Reader or Pro?

My document has extended features, if you open this in Reader or Pro does it work the same?

For the most part.
If it is enabled, Reader users will be able to fill in form fields, add comments then save when finished. But they won't be able to add form fields or do any other editing that Acrobat can do.

Interactive Form after Edit is not working

Dear All,
I am facing an issue with Interactive Forms in NWDS. It was working fine before, but today suddenly it stopped. When I click on Edit, the blank Interactive Form is opening with Red Mark.
Kinldy help to solve this issue.

You are getting problem when you are doing Edit in Interactive Form,then this problem may be due to your Adobe Life Cycle Designer.

How to import an xdp-File to Web Dynpro Interactive Forms

Hi Experts
I am working with Web Dynpro and Interactive Form. With Adobe Lifecycle Designer I do an import of an MS Word-Document and convert it to the XDP-Format. How do I import this XDP-File into an Interactive Form inside Web Dynpro? The form shouldn't be created with Web Dynpro. So far, what I did was creating an empty form from within Web Dynpro and overwriting it with my xdp-File. But this doesn't seem to be a secure and robust solution. Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks for helping
Kind regards
Bettina Hepp

Hi Bettina,
I can understand what problem you are facing.
Please follow these steps and let me know if it has solved your problem or not
1. Open the XDP file in Adobe Life Cycle Designer and go to File Menu ->Save As ->
Save the file as PDF.
2. NWDS Webdynpro Edit the interactive form and now you can import the same PDF file.
This will solve your problem and let me know if you are facing any other issue.

Adobe interactive forms in Webdynpro

I installed Adobe LiveCycle Designer.
When I edit the interactive form from NWDS, it says "could not find the required product, Install adobe Live cycle designer"
Do we have to perform some additional settings after the installation.

Hi,
ALD 8.1 is still not supported completely.
Install ALD 7.1 for NWDS 7.0.9.

Showing linebreaks in Adobe interactive forms webdynpro java

Hey
Im using interactive form from Adobe to show the content of my context, but the linebreaks gets converted into spaces. Heres my scenario:
I have create a context:
Person (node)
- Name (value attribute)
- Lastname (value attribute)
I have create a view (view1) with 2 TextEdit to enter som text. This two TextEdit fields is binded to the contextnode.
I have created another view (view2) with interactive form. The interactive forms consist of 2 InputFields that is also binded to the context.
When i run the application i insert som text in the first view (view1). Then i go to the second view(view2) to display the content as a PDF. This works, but my problem is that the linebreaks I have created in the view1 gets converted into spaces in view2. I have allowd multiple lines.
My question is that:
does Adobe interactive form support linebreaks from the context? It is possible to enter linebreaks if I edit the interactive form at runtime, but I want it to display the linebreaks automaticly from the context.
Are there any way around this? Please help me out. I cant find any sap note about this issue

I know a little more about the problem now. After viewing the XML source I change the property of the inputfield.
It was like this:
<field name="verdipers_felt" y="130.7001mm" x="180.1801mm" w="101.6004mm" h="44.4501mm" locale="no_NO" access="ReadOnly">
but i changed the access to be nonInteractive
<field name="verdipers_felt" y="130.7001mm" x="180.1801mm" w="101.6004mm" h="44.4501mm" locale="no_NO" access="nonInteractive">
now view2 shows the linebreak as in view1... Buut! when im going back to view1 from view2, the linebreaks gets converted into spaces
thats pretty wierd, aint it?

Interactive form is not showing data during design time

Hello,
I have created a interactive form to display PDF. It is of 12 page. I created and checked in the code to DTR but now when I checked out the DC and and edited the interactive form for further update it is not showing any thing in the design time,showing only one blank page. However if I build and run that checked out project it is showing the proper data at runtime, so now i am unable to update the pdf.
Please help and let me know what to do.

Hi Timo,
Sorry for the late response and not specifying more in detail.
My Jdeveloper version is 11.1.1.6 R1. When I ran for the first time, it was working fine. Then later on, when I was running it was opening completely blank screen.
I thought it is something to do with the permission to the task flow. I have opened web.xml and jazn-data.xml file to check and closed without tweaking these files.
Now, I was not able to open the page in the designer also. It was just showing hierarchy of all the components.
I copied the backup again and it worked. What could be the reason so that I can avoid doing this in future?
Is this related to Jdeveloper bug as I have seen on other forums highlighting this issue.

Does interactive form need acrobat 9 in EP 7 version ?

Hi,
After the portal was upgraded to EP 7, the adobe form stopped working for one of the components.
Its about opening PO details in adobe form and when the link is clicked, a red cross is seen instead of form or there is pop up to install adobe software. Interactive form is used in this web dynpro component.
This issue is not for users having acrobat 9 version.
I am looking for.
1) what is the difference betw interactive forms in web dynpro and non-interactive forms?
2)Is there any way to make this work without having to upgrade the adobe version for all the users ?
thank you in advace for any help

Dipti,
There is no separate UI element in NWDS. When you do a right click and edit the Interactive Form element, you open another Designer which is called Adobe LiveCycle Designer, just wanted to clarify it so that you don't gfet confused between Designer and NWDS.
Now in Adobe Designer, after the form is opened, from edit menu option --> Select form properties --> Goto Defaults tab --> See what's the preview type. If its Interactive then that means your Form is Interactive and if its Print then it will be a Print Form.
Also as per my knowledge Web Dynpro is recommended for Interactive Forms, so whenever you develop a form in WD (JAVA or ABAP) it will most likely be Interactive.
Coming to your other questions, at least I have seen on Adobe Forums @ SDN that people have had problems with Adobe Reader 8.0, Reader 8.1.1 is probably the best bet.
Adobe 9.0 is also working as you mentioned but can you let me know what's the version where the form does not work, as long as they have Adobe Reader 7.0.5 and above they should be good.
Just remove the ACF control as mentioned in note 846952 on the user's machine. Try opening the form once again, see if you get the prompt to load AcitveX installation and verify if you have done the necessary settings as per 1150277 and 766191.

Offline Interactive Form

Hi everyone,
I'm currently working on the UploadDownloadInteractiveForm for WD Java Example.
The Example from SDN is working successfully. What I don't understand is, can I only use a ready made PDF Document that is downloaded from the server like the TravelRequest.pdf?
I tried to create my own interactive form document, but in the implementation of the download view the TravelRequest.pdf is explicitly downloaded from the server. I thought I can edit the interactive form element with the built-in Adobe Lifecycle Designer and call it via the pdfSource Attribute.
How can I create my own interactive form with references to my Context in an offline scenario.
Thanks in advance,
Olaf

Hello Michael,
thank you for your answer. I checked on my project and gave you points.
Do the same while uploading this pdf,but using FileUpload element and usePdf mode on your InteractiveForm element.<
I only have one interactive form element in the form view. The download and the upload view have a FileDownload and FileUpload element. Do you mean, I should use a FileDownload element and an InteractiveForm element in the DownloadView?
I have one last question:
In the implementation of UploadDownloadInteractiveForm there are these lines of code inside wdDoInit():
String fileName = "temp//webdynpro//web//local//TutWD_UploadDownloadInteractiveForm//Components//com.sap.tut.wd.uploaddownloadinteractiveform.UploadDownloadInteractiveFormComp//TravelRequest.pdf";
     try
       File file = new File(fileName);
       FileInputStream in = new FileInputStream(file);
       ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
       int length;
       byte[] part = new byte ;
       while ((length = in.read(part)) != -1)
          out.write(part, 0, length);
       in.close();
       wdContext.currentContextElement().setPdfSource(out.toByteArray());
I don't want to use the pdf form "TravelRequest.pdf" but the form I created in the NW Developer Studio. How can I reference my own form.
Thank you,
Olaf

Unable to edit the fields in PDF interactive form

Hi,
We are in the process of developing an interactive form integrating Web Dynpro ABAP with Adobe forms.
As of now we are able to send the data to Adobe form from Web Dynpro.
But we are facing the following problem.
i) Unable to edit the form data for entering/changing the contents of the fields in PDF document, which is presented to user with a Web Dynpro application URL.
We have already unset the 'ReadOnly' property of the interactive UI element.
We are currently working on ZCI installation with SAP SP08, GUI patch level 20, Adobe Reader version 8.0
Please advise...
Thanks,

Hi,
Check your ADS settings, I feel it's due to lack of some config in ADS only.

Adobe Interactive Form text field not editable

Hello,
I created an Adobe Form using transaction SFP and placed a textfield on the body page.
I then created a Web Dynpro application using SE80, placed Interactive Form container on the view. I also checked the flag 'Enabled' and provided the templateSource as my Adobe Form name.
When I test the WD application, the text field is not editable.
Can you please advise what needs to be done?
Thanks
Sagar

Hi...
Place the following code in domodifyview
data:
lr_interactive_form type ref to cl_wd_interactive_form,
lr_method_handler type ref to if_wd_iactive_form_method_hndl.
check first_time = abap_true.
lr_interactive_form ?= view->get_element( 'INTERACTIVE_FORM' ).
lr_method_handler ?= lr_interactive_form->_method_handler.
lr_method_handler->set_legacy_editing_enabled( abap_true ).
Thanks
Gopal.

Adobe Interactive forms are not editable following an EHP6 upgrade, how do we correct this?

Good day,
We are currently going through an upgrade to EHP6. We have set up a test parallel environment that was copied from prod and applied EHP6 for a compare.
During our initial tests, we have found that Adobe interactive forms are not loading properly following the upgrade. 11 out of the 13 interactive forms currently implemented in the portal are no longer editable. When you go to select a value from the drop-downs or input a value in the field the fields remain blank. This is a high priority as all users perform their PA actions via MSS and through workflow approvals using Abode interactive forms.
Does anyone have any ideas of how to fix this issue or have come across this issue before?
Thanks in advance,
Christine

Hi Christine,
maybe a restart of the ADS-Server helps you out. I can remember a similar case where the restart helped.
IF not, check if you got the latest patch of the ADS, maybe the upgrade of the erp causes this error, because it pass now more data to the ads than before.
IT's just a suggest. Let us know, if that helped you out.
Regards
Florian
