Editing Text In Data Forms

I have a data form with accounts listed on the rows. I want to make some of these members bold or maybe another color. What is the easiest way to achieve this? Is there anyway besides java scripting?

You can customize the Cascading Style Sheets but that won't effect just certain members :- http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/hp_admin/frameset.htm?ch13s03.html
If it is defined members you want to change the font style then I would say it would be custom javascript.
Cheers

Matching an "Edit Text" in a form with a Field in a Table

Hi Every Body,
I've succeed to add a new "Edit Text" in the invoice Form (133) with c# :
oItem = oInvoiceForm.Items.Item("103");
                    oNewItem = oInvoiceForm.Items.Add("EditText1", SAPbouiCOM.BoFormItemTypes.it_EDIT);
                    oNewItem.Left = oItem.Left;
                    oNewItem.Width = oItem.Width;
                    oNewItem.Top = oItem.Top + oItem.Height + 1;
                    oNewItem.Height = oItem.Height;
                    oNewItem.Enabled = false;
                    oEditText = ((SAPbouiCOM.EditText)(oNewItem.Specific));
and I've added a new Field in an existing table (OINV) Documents Marketing.....
What I want to do now is to link the new "Edit Text" to the added Field so that informations could be retreived from the table. How can I proceed? Have I to use User Interface, Data Interface? Have I to use datasource, DataBind??
I have to say that I'm a little bit lost in the code
Thank you for helping me.

Hi Haifa,
you have to bind the field to a dbdatasource named "OINV", your field.

How to edit text in a form

I downloaded a form to pay taxes, I compiled it inserting my dates but I wuold like to edit text: how can I do it?
thank you and excuse me for my bad english

I was going to comment yesterday and did not. I think I will chime in anyway for what it is worth. As Claudio mentioned, editing PDFs is not really recommended. If you have downloaded a government form, there may be some implications if you actually tried to change the form (to make it look better) and it could be rejected. I remember some time back I has a passport or visa form I think where the size of the field entry was rediculous. I lived with it and the limitations.
The form was also restricted from editing, that would have made it a bit more difficult and might have invalidated any submission. I do not know if there are any legal implications of making such changes, but there may be some aspects of the form not being accepted if you try to change it.
If you are talking about no fields available, you might want to recheck the source of the form to see if they have one with fields included (the IRS used to have forms with and without fields). If the form allows adding fields and that is the issue, then simply select the TOOLS>Advanced editing and use the form tools you need. If the form is locked, it is probably best to print the form and start using a pen.
Another option in the latter case is to print the form and then fill is in using a word processor, playing around with the placement of the text until the two line up. Then you just print the form and then reprint the text on top of it. That used to be the method folks used.

How to edit text in a form edited in LCD / Acrobat 9?

So I have a few minor edits to a form that was created in LCD 9 and Acrobat Pro 9. Apparently this seemingly simple task is now impossible with the latest versions. When I try to edit it in Acrobat XI I get the message "This form cannot be edited in Acrobat" but I have no way to edit the text in LCD.
Are users of forms from release 9 really stranded?

I may still have a version of AA9 available to play with. If so, I will try to check things out and see if there are alternatives. Of course, you could recreate the form in Acrobat XI (that is where printing to a new PDF or extracting the info would be useful). You could also try Forms Central that is part of XI. It may be that Forms Central can deal with a LCD form, never tried it (but I tend to doubt it). If you did not use any of the fancy features of LCD forms, you might be better off just transferring it to AcroForms in XI.
OK, I opened an AcroForms file in Designer for AA9 and saved. I then opened the file in AA9 and was surprised that I would edit the text of the form. When I went to edit the form fields it took me to Designer as would be expected. I played around in Designer a bit and could not find a way to edit the text, but the text could be edited in AA9. I think this is what you had described.
I then opened the LCD form in AA XI and found the same result that you did. I was not able to edit either the text or the forms. However, I was able to export the form with most fields to DOCX. The result was pretty good for the form I was working with (suggesting it had reasonable tagging -- but that may also have been done by Designer, I am not sure). There were a few form fields that did not seem to come out, but most did on the 4 page form. I then used PDF Maker to create a new PDF and the result gave most of the form fields, similar to the docx file. It may be that this conversion process might be the most useful, unless you possibly have a form with dynamic fields that is unique in Designer.
Hope that at least clarifies a few things for all of us and gives you some ideas. You might find additional input from the folks in the forms sub-forum.

Edit Text in PDF Forms

I was wondering if someone might be able to help me.
I have a PDF Form which I created in LiveCycle, I was hoping to use this form as a template form, so all I had to do was to use the Touch Up Tool in Adobe Professional, and change the address.
The problem occurs when I change the address, as soon as I hit return to add a new line, all the layout on that page goes all over the place instead of where it is actually meant to be!!
Does anyone know how I can put a line in, without the formatting going wrong?
Also, to make life easier, if I could change the text in Livecycle, that would be brilliant, the only problem being it doesn't look like there is an option for me to select the text and touch it up like there is in Professional.
Can anyone help me please? I really don't want to have to create a new form for every company we have listed, I'll be here until 2012 just doing that!!
Thank for your help in advance.

That's interesting, I never thought about using that sort of approach, I will definately look in to that further, I have since found the fault in the file, it appears that for me to take a line out, I have to put a space at the beginning of the text in order to remove the rest of the text. Which is really annoying!
After the text was removed and the pdf saved, I went in to Livecycle and added a new field that way so that I could save individual files.
What you have taught me though will prove extremely helpful, I will start having a look at doing this in place of what I already have, but unfortunately I can't experiment with it right now, if I need any more advice on this, is there a way fro me to get hold of you outside the forums?

How to edit text on PDF form in Acrobat 8 professional

I just took a Word doc and created a form for an application. The client changed the deadline and I would like to know if I can make that change in Acrobat 8 Prof (MAC) or if I have to make the change in Word, create a PDF and completely re-do the form? Of course, it needs to be done right now.

Create a new PDF from Word. Open the old form in Acrobat and replace the pages with the pages of the new PDF.

Cannot Editing Text in Acrobat 8

I opened customers pdf in Acrobat 8 Mac. Went to properties and found font name and opened it. Was able to edit Optima fonts but was not able to edit any of the Avante Garde fonts. I changed the avante garde text to times and arial, and still got an error message: "All or part of the selection has no available system font. You cannot add or delete text using the currently selected font." Seems like it will only accept a few fonts and Acrobat's font list is different than my Suitcase Fusion list - even if I have them open if Suitcase.
How change I change fonts to MY fonts and EDIT them?? Thanks

Have a PDF Form created in Photoshop and converted to a PDF. Would like to edit text in the form but the TouchUp Text Tool won't work. It is as though it doesn't recognize the text. Any ideas as to how I can edit text in the form. I need to delete text, add new text and move existing text.

How do I edit text in a fill-in form?

How do I edit text in a fill-in form? I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro version 10.1.8 in Mac OSX. The document was created in Word, saved as a pdf, opened in Acrobat, and form fields added. Now I need to change some of the text on the original form (mostly just dates). Ideally, I wish there were a way to edit the forms overall - add or delete lines, edit text, etc. I've done this before, but I always seem to need to go back to Word, edit the original document, and then re-create the form fields... it takes me a huge amount of time, making sure each field is formatted correctly (font, size, wrapping, text resizing, etc) so it looks ok when the user enters their data and prints it. Please, tell me there is a better way!
If the solution is upgrading to a higher version of Acrobat, I'm listening... but ideally I can get this batch done in the software I have, then worry about learning the newest version.

Fonts are Licensed asset's subject to single user use. They are not intended to be exchanged, redistributed, etc.
As part of the PDF standard they included in a document so that the document can be viewed reliably without the font be installed on the viewing station.
To edit you must have the font installed on your computer. The ability for second parties to use the font would violate font licenses.

Taking data from a edit text and placing it in a matrix

Hi all, this is most probably a silly question and simple as pie for everyone on this site, but i just can't get it to work .
Im trying to take data from a edit text and then place it into the matrix.the matrix has been added to the form already. my code looks like this
dataSource = oForm.DataSources.UserDataSources.Add("MyData", SAPbouiCOM.BoDataType.dt_SHORT_TEXT, 20)
oColumn = oColumns.Item("ItemC")
oColumn.DataBind.SetBound(True, "", "MyData")
dataSourceED = oEdit.DataSources.UserDataSources.Add("MyDataED", SAPbouiCOM.BoDataType.dt_SHORT_TEXT, 20)
oEdit.DataBind.SetBound(True, "", "MydataED")
dataSource.Value = dataSourceED.Value.ToString(oEdit)
oMatrix.AddRow()
Please can someone show me how it should be actualy done because i think the above is totaly wrong.

I thought it was wrong Alexey Grebennikov because it wasn't doing anything. I original said
If (FormUID = "UidFrm") Then
If (pVal.Before_Action = False) Then
If (pVal.ItemUID = "Add") And (pVal.EventType = SAPbouiCOM.BoEventTypes.et_ITEM_PRESSED) Then
AddToMatrix()
end if
end if
end if
then in AddMatrix() it had the code listed before,it was in a try block but i was not diplsying the error in the catch part,my bad/fault but i've added it to a try block with it displaying the error in the catch block and i'm getting the error
"Object Variable or block variable not set" when it gets to the line
dataSourceED = oEdit.DataSources.UserDataSources.Add("MyDataED", SAPbouiCOM.BoDataType.dt_SHORT_TEXT, 20)
any ideas what this error means, if i know that i think it will then work.
Thank you to both of you Auzillaud Antoine and Alexey Grebennikov for helping. Auzillaud Antoine i tried loadfromdatasource and the other code but it obviously picks up the error before getting to the code you supplied. If i can figure out the error i'm sure it will all work.
So please, any ideas why i get the error
"Object Variable or block variable not set"

Unable to edit Data Forms in EPM 11.1.2.1

Hello Gurus,
I have recently exported the form from EPM 11.1.1.3 and have imported it to EPM 11.1.2.1 successfully without any issues.
I then checked the Data forms to see if the forms load properly and I have observed that it is not using the Alias dimensions for the Page/Point of view dimensions.
Now when I try to edit the form I get the following error/message. I am not sure as to how I can edit the form.
You cannot edit an ad hoc grid from this context. If you have an Ad hoc grid creator role, open it, and use Save.I am not getting as to how I can edit this form so that I can select the option to use Alias in the data form settings
Thanks
HyperEPM.

Hi HyperEPM,
To solve your problem, try to follow these steps:
1. Create a report into the EPM 11.1.2.1 platform. Then export it.
2. Open a report exported from EPM 11.1.1.3 platform and copy all the "query" tag (<query>...</query>).
3. Select all the "query" tag from the report you've exported from the EPM 11.1.2.1 platform and paste the tag that you've copied in the previous step.
4. Import the updated file.

I have a acrobat reader, can I import text delimited data format to a PDF Form so that it can auto fill into forms that was created? If not, what about FDF and XML data

I have a acrobat reader, can I import text delimited data format to a PDF Form so that it can auto fill into forms that was created? If not, what about FDF and XML data

Yes, you can do all of that via Tools - Forms - More Form Options - Import Data, if you have Acrobat.
If you only have the free Reader then you can still do it, but it requires a script.

Trouble editing text within form in pdf

We have created pdf fillable forms and was able to add text fields that come with red borders (intentional) inside and outside the forms. However, when trying to edit the texts inside the form, we are not able to click on it to select and delete/move easily like the text outside the forms. I am able to edit it from the comments list on the sidebar, but not editing it directly on the form, which takes a lot more time.
Please advise!

Hi Joyce,
Make sure the "Highlight Existing Fields" option is check marked.
Launch the PDF>Tools>Forms>More Form Options>See if that option is check marked .If it is not ,kindly do that and see if it works for you.
