Export data from a scanned form.

Hello
I have several forms that users will fill out and email back.  The data can then be extracted using Adobe's forms tools.  However, at times the form is returned either on paper or scanned.
Is there a way to extract the data from the scanned form?  I am reading something about templates--I am not sure if that is the way I need to go.  I only want to extract the data-such as name, address, etc.  I am not wanting to convert to another format, such as word, etc.
If someone could direct me in the right direction, I would appreciate it.
Thank you in advance for your assistance!
I am using Adobe Acrobat Professional XI and LiveCycle Designer.  Some of the forms are developed in Adobe, some in LiveCycle Designer.

Not in the same way. Printing and then scanning a form causes it to lose
all metadata, including the field objects.
The only way to do it at that point is to run OCR and then use a script
that looks for the data in the same locations where the fields used to be,
and export what it finds. This is not a simple task, though, and it's
likely the results will not be 100% correct.

  • Looking for a solution or service to export data from a dynamic form into a database

    As the title of this discussion states, I'm looking for a solution or service to export data from a dynamic form into a database to be used for reporting. Creating the dynamic form is not a problem, it's getting it into a database that's more of a nuisance. A dynamic form is needed in order to provide skip logic, hide/reveal, and other similar dynamic features.
    The database hasn't been created, so just looking for the easiest, more effective and dependable solution. The key is being able to run reports off the data later.

    So i set up 2 residential grade routers to test this out. Seems to be working okayish. I believe with directional antenae routers I should achieve what I need.
    As for security I configured each device separately. I set them so only allow the MAC address of the other through wireless. This seems to be the best system for me. Once they are connected even if a MAC is spoofed of the other router it drops automatically because they are always connected. My wired devices get plugged in and recieve an IP from my main network.
    There more testing to be done, but it seems to be working.
    Thanks for your input and suggestions guys. I will be marking this topic as answered.

  • Can not export data from form tracker

    Hi there,
         I have set up a lovely form for collecting data. It all comes into the Adobe Tracker and the Responses file fine.
         What i wish to do is export data from the responses file into another format. I should be able to do it from the Export button on the left but it is 'blanked out' and does nothing if I push it. I can't find any details on here or the internet relating to this. And yes, there is data in the file to export .
    Hoping you can help.
    Many thanks in advance.

    I have the same problem but... I created two forms for two separate purposes and have had responses to both.
    One of them allows me to export the data and the other does not.
    Does anyone out there have an answer for this seemingly random anomoly?
    Regards
    Sydman

  • Help with exporting data from pdf form

    I have about 100 pdf forms that I created in adobe forms central and distributed as a pdf form (rather than on the web). I am trying to export the data into a spreadsheet but when I export it, the fields are all jumbled in the csv file, as in they are not in the same order. I need to export the data all together so I'm going to the forms menu and selecting "manage form data" and then selecting "merge data files into spreadsheet". I tried exporting a single file but that gave me something really weird.
    Please help, I have a deadline next week to analyze this data and can't make sense of it once it is exported to a spreadsheet.

    Would you please share your form with me and send me one of your pdf forms and some of the csv files?
    You can share your form by doing the following:
    1. Click on the “Share” icon on the bottom left corner.
    2. Click on “Add Collaborator” on the popup menu.
    3. Enter [email protected] under “People to share with”.
    4. Set subject to "Export data from pdf form"
    5. Click the “Share” button on the bottom right of the dialog.
    Thanks

  • Export data from forms to excel

    HI
    In my application im trying to export data from forms to excel.Everything works fine.First of all im using get_file_name for selecttion of file and passing it to ole2 package as follows
    FILENAME := GET_FILE_NAME(File_Filter=> 'XLS Files (*.xls)|*.xls|',dialog_type=>SAVE_FILE);
         ARGS:=OLE2.CREATE_ARGLIST;
         oLE2.ADD_ARG(ARGS,Filename);
         OLE2.INVOKE(WORKSHEET,'SAVEAS',ARGS);
    The problem is if i select an existing file the get_file_name itself raises one message ".....file already exists Replace an existing file?"
    Similarly the excel also also raises the same message "".....file already exists Replace an existing file?".I want to suppress atleast one of them? Could anyone help for this problem?
    appreciate ur help
    THANKS

    Looks like...
    ole2.set_property( ex_app, 'DisplayAlerts', false );
    where "ex_app" variable Excel Application -
         ex_app:=     ole2.create_obj('Excel.Application');
    and more Question:
    When i close excel app - in process viewer i see "excel.exe"
    ole2.release_obj don't work :(

  • Importing/Exporting data from Microsoft Access

    Hello to everybody!
    I have to create a management software (client-server).
    CLIENT SIDE: ClientS insert data into forms and these data are stored into a database Access (client database). Every month clients send to the server some of the data stored (data of the month!).
    SERVER SIDE: "Server man" receive from clients those data by email end need to store them into the main server database.
    Note: Data to be send have not a big dimension and, naturally, clients and server databases are identical (same structure)!
    My questions are:
    1) What is the best way to export data from database access to a file? (I imagine I need to use .XML file). Do I need to use particular package or software??
    2) What is the best way to import data from a file (maybe .XML) into a database access (of server)?? Do I need to use particular package or software??
    This is my first software of this kind.
    Please HELP ME!
    Thanks in advance, Liuk.

    1) What is the best way to export data from database
    access to a file?That depends on many things.
    (I imagine I need to use .XML
    file). NO! That's not what XML is for
    Do I need to use particular package or
    software??Again, that depends on a lot of things.
    2) What is the best way to import data from a file
    (maybe .XML) into a database access (of server)?? Do
    I need to use particular package or software??Look at Java IO packages for reading data from files. Then look at JDBC for writing data to databases. Avoid XML, you don't need it.

  • Export data from block to excel.

    Hi
    Does anybody know how I can export data from oracle forms to an excel worksheet. I need to provide a direct interface for a user where he fetches the data into the block and by just click a button the data from the block should go to an excel sheet.

  • Extracting data from a pdf form

    Hi,
    livecycle es2, workbench 9.0
    I'm new to workbench and have a problem extracting data from a pdf form submitted to a short lived process.
    I have set up the following very simple process :
    default startpoint >  ProcessForm > exportData > set value > set value > Write Document
    The intention is to update the document and write it to disk. So far, each step works except for the 'export data' where I cannot get the pdf to extract to xml.
    The Input to the 'export data' step is a variable (myDoc), Data Type: Document,  created from the incoming PDF form.
    If I write out myDoc it is an exact copy of the incoming document, so I guess the start and finish steps of of the process are OK.
    The incoming (PDF) form I was given had no data schema, but  I thought I could access the form data by exporting to an xml variable....
      Service : FormDataIntegration  / exportData
    input (PDF Document)    variable : myDoc
      output(Data extracted)     variable : myXMLData
    Then in the next step (set value) access the xml element I am after ..
    Mappings
    Location:  /process_data/@groupId      Expression: /process_data/myXMLData/xdp/datasets/data/form1/mainPage/groupId
    This is did not work, so I got the incoming form, exported the form data to an xml file,  and created a schema using  Stylus Studio. I then imported that into the myXMLdata definition. ( BTW - Do I need to specify the root node after importing it ? )
    Still not working !
    Extra info : The XML view of my incoming  form shows I have a minimal dataset definition- is this OK ??
    <connectionSet xmlns="http://www.xfa.org/schema/xfa-connection-set/2.8/">
       <?originalXFAVersion http://www.xfa.org/schema/xfa-connection-set/2.4/?></connectionSet>
    <xfa:datasets xmlns:xfa="http://www.xfa.org/schema/xfa-data/1.0/">
       <xfa:data xfa:dataNode="dataGroup"/>
    </xfa:datasets>
    The schema created by stylus studio has none of the xfdf, xfa settings I have seen on other schemas - is this OK ?
    Any help to get this fixed greatly appreciated
    thanks
    steve

    hey thanks for the offer, but I am now sorted after I found a simple working example on line.
    This is a similar process to the one I am working on, and is clearly described and easy to follow...

  • How to retrieve input data from a HTML form in the UTF-8 cha

    I encountered the following problem with a JWeb Application:
    I tried to write a JWeb-Application for OAS 4.0, that retrieves
    input data from a HTML form and writes it into an Oracle
    database.
    All processing should be done in the UTF-8 character set.
    The problem is, that the form data retrieved by getURLParameter
    are always encoded in a non-unicode character set and I found no
    way to change this.
    Can anybody tell me what I should do to get the form data in the
    UTF-8 character set?

    Hi
    Try set in the JWEB application's Java environment such
    SYSTEM_PROPERTY: file.encoding=UTF8.

  • Export data from database table before database migration

    Hello,
    We are planning to migrate our SAP ERP 6 Ehp4/NW7.01 from Oracle 11.2 to IBM DB2 v. 9.7 database. During test migrations I have established that we spend a lot of time for one particular table (COEP). Because we donu2019t have possibility to archive this table before migration I have an idea to export data from previous years from this table to the file system (using an ABAP report), delete those data from table before migration and then after migration, import back to the database from the file system.
    Does anybody have any concerns or suggestions about this idea?
    Thank you for your answers
    Andrej

    Hello Andrej,
    I strongly do not recommend to do so.
    I am not sure whether technically this could work at all..
    Even it if would work .. In order to really save time, the export and the import would have to be a dirty one (meaning the system is operational and in production). With this there is a high risk to produce inconsistencies on this table.  And you most likely will receive no support if something unforeseen happens and you end with problems.
    Also  your approach (if it should work at all) , would have to be tested thoroughly by you , also protecting the table from any changes.
    I do not believe that this can save any effort compared to implementing advanced migration techniques like table splitting.
    On top, you would go high risk to end with an unsupported system, with not using official migration procedures

  • Unable to export data from Web Access Data Sheet in Sharepoint to local excel or access file

    Greetings and good morning.
    I'm going to start off in broad terms with this question because I'm not 100 percent sure what information to provide.
    Long story short, we've got a Web Access Data Sheet list hosted in a Sharepoint 2010 environment. It is accessed and used by multiple people throughout the day. It contains several thousand line item entries. I'd call it a large data sheet.
    I think the size of the data sheet is casuign some instability in the list. I'd like to be able to export a defined range of data from the list into a local excel or access file. After that, I'd delete the stuff on the Access list to improve performance.
    But...when I attempt to use the Sharepoint Action bar to export - Excel locks up/crashes. If I try to export to Access, I get a similar issue.
    Any ideas? Could anyone begin by telling me what other information is required?

    Hi,
    If you would like to export data from Access Web Database in SharePoint 2010, you could go to Design With Access page in Settings. The url in my environment is http://sp/tt/_layouts/accsrv/ModifyApplication.aspx . Then choose the Table and export it to Excel
    or Modify it in Access.

  • How to combine data from different input forms outside a nested iView

    Hi,
    i try to combine data from different input forms in a single one.
    Because of space reasons in Flex compiling i already use nested iViews. Within these nested iViews its possible to use the 'combine' function to do this.
    But in the main iView I cant compose these function with other elements. I need to do this because of using these model in Guided Procedures with output parameters. These parameters I only get with a 'endPoint'. Unfortunatly its not possible to combine data from different input forms into the 'endPoint'.
    Is there any solution?
    Thanx
    Mathias

    Hi Scott,
    i tried this already and i also tried to map all parameters in the endpoint by drawing lines from the other forms and assign the 'empty parameters' by a formula.
    And when i create a collable object in GP and assign the VC iView, only the parameters of the parent-form (the form who trigger the event) are shown as output-parameters.
    Maybe any other ideas? I cant believe that such a simple thing is not possible?!?!
    In my opinion, thats a bug, that I'am not able to use the combine-operator in the main VC-iView. Whats your mind?
    greets
    mathias
