Extracting Icons from MacIntosh Forms

Does anyone know how to extract the icons from a MacIntosh form (Forms 4.5) so that I can migrate them to an NT platform (Forms 6)?

Hi,
your problem is not the exported data, it's Excel that drops the leading zeros by default.
You can use a custom pattern to keep the leading zeros.
0#### will display intergers with up to 5 places with a leading zero.
Value:           Displayed Value:
012               012
12345          12345
0045             0045
Here an example video for telephone numbers.

Extracting data from dynamic forms

I am new to using Livecycle and see the advantages of using dynamic forms for collecting data. I have designed several dynamic forms which include rows with 6 to 9 text fields and may be completed with 10 to 100 rows. I have had to use text fields for collecting numeric information as many of the references start with zeros (003456).
Whilst Acrobat Pro provides for Livecycle dynamic forms to be enabled for Acrobat Reader filling and saving is extracting to Excel the best option available if you do not have the Enerprise version of Livecycle?
One problem I have in using Excel is that whilst the completed PDF documents capture the leading zeros, when I view the Excel spreadsheet the lead zeros have been lost. I have experienced this problem in importing Excel files into Access. To overcome this I usually create five lead rows with characters in all the fields that I want Excel to define as text - otherwise it processes them as numerics.
Any better ways of extracting data from a hundred or so dynamic forms?

Extracting image from retuned form

Hi have a form which asks the end user to place 3 images into it.
Is there a way in which i can then download those images from the form at my end?

Thanks Patrick.
We are thinking about using a third party native Java library to do this (http://www.qoppa.com/pdffields/jpfindex.html). I was hoping we could use acrobat reader, since everyone has it!
Here are a few more things.
1. We are an Software Vendor that sells our solutions - our software solutions need to extract the xml from pdf. We have a java based program that parses this xml and does stuff with it.
2. Obviously, we would need to be able to redistribute whatever solution we use to extract the xml from pdf.
3. Can Acrobat Professional batch mode be executed from Java?
4.. If so, Instead of distributing a full blown Acrobat Professional or requiring customers to buy it, is there a library that Adobe provides that we could repackage and ewdistribute? If so, can you send me some pointers on where I could find what those libraries would be and how much would they cost for each distribution we do.
5. If no, are you familiar with qoppa or do you have recommendations on any other third party libary for Java?
Thanks a bunch!

Extracting XML from Pdf form

There is an industry standard pdf form with an underlying XML schema which can be opened in Adobe reader.
The form has a custom button on Page 2 called "export" which can be manually clicked to export the XML file.
We will have hundreds of these forms. How would I automate the extraction of this XML document?
I would prefer to just write a simple script and extract out the xml to a file folder
Thanks for your help.

How to extract icon from windows exe in java

I have a windows ex e file which has icons , how can i extract from
my java code? Where can i find a example code for doing this.

You could do it by JNI-invoking into the dll, fetch the icon through LoadIcon, draw the icon onto a jawt drawing surface, return the pixel data of the icon to the java app or whatever. A lot of work for a little more than a thousand pixels. My advice would be to put the icon in the jar file instead, if that's an option.

How do you extract SQL from Oracle Forms and Reports files?

I am developing an "as is" data model for a government client for a 14 year old system that has three databases, 20 schemas, over 1500 tables, and over 23,000 columns. Needless to say, I do not plan to perform a manual mapping of data to screens and reports.
Most of the system has been developed in Oracle Forms and Reports. I am trying to map the live tables and columns to forms and reports.
The process here has been to save the forms and reports files as .fmb and .rdf files. The client does not have an available copy of Oracle Designer, which I understand could be used to extract the SQL.
Is there a utility somewhere that can parse the .fmb and .rdf files to extract the SQL?
Thanks,
Jim Gearing

Jim,
I don't know of any utility that will do this. You can convert and save each fmb as a fmt so you can view/search the contents , but I don't recommend that approach.
On the other hand, you download a copy of Oracle Designer:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/index.html
It usually is included with Oracle Forms and Reports.

Extracting Data from PDF forms in Reader created in Livecycle

Hello
We would like users who complete a PDF document in Adobe Reader created in Livecycle to be able to export the completed fields (and accompanying questions) to a MS Word document in a format that appears similar to the PDF so it can be pasted in future documents.
Is there a simple step procedure that the users can follow
Any assistance would be much appreciated

Hi,
I think, you had selected "3.x Datasource" as the type when you were replicating the Metadata from second client.
If so, delete the datsource (in BIW) from the second client , and then replicate the datsource one more time.But this time , you need to select "As Datasource" option only.

Need to pre-populate and Extract data from static PDF form

Hi Jasmin or Jayan or anyone else that can answer.
I have a requirement to use Digital Signatures. Because of that, the forms must be static PDFs and the form variables will be “document form”. I want to pre-populate the form via an SQL query and custom render process and render it as PDF so that the submitter can apply a digital signature when he/she is done and ready to submit for approvalSubsequent approvers will also digitally sign the form. I know that I will specify the custom render to render only once and thereby preserve the signature(s) on the form. I do, however, need to extract data from the form to control the business process. I cannot access the data in the form the same way I do with an xdp and I also cannot pre-populate the same way I do with an xdp.
Any suggestions on how to attack this?

Parth, one problem with your approach is he will submit PDF and therefore you won't be able to put the PDF in a variable that's suppose to contain just xml.
The prepopulation should be the same. If you start off with an xdp, then you will call a render service that merges data with your xdp to create a PDF.
Now when you submit, you will submit the entire PDF back in the Document Form variable. In Workbench, you can use the FormDataIntegration service to extract data from that PDF that's being stored under Document Form var/object/document and put it in an xml variable. Then you can just use xPath to do your condition.
I'm assuming you'll just pass that same Document Form variable to the next step, because if you do any change to the PDF it'll brake the signature.
Let me know if I missed anything.
Jasmin

Programatically extract information from PDF

I am very green to Adobe/Java programming, so this is just a plausibility question not really a how to question. Is it possible to take text from a PDF document that isn't a form? I have heard about database integration with forms but what if the document doesn't have recoginzed fields?
The department of labor has an online form that prints to PDF. Much of the information that is typed there must be re-typed over and over again in communications with employers. I'm wondering if we could take the information from the PDF and put it in a database to be merged in our office-created forms.
Sorry if my question is totally out there and thanks for any help.

I am scadoosh, but not iluvtofly. The information is in the same place in the forms. I could send the form if that is helpful. It is a form that we have to fill and submit online. We were hoping we could implement a solution where we could either extract information from the form that has been "printed to pdf" or the opposite, where we would fill in a database and programmatically fill the form.
When you say an Adobe LiveCycle product, what is that? Is it software or hardware? Would we have to purchase something in addition to Adobe Acrobat? What do we need to implement such a solution?
Are there Adobe people who design custom products? Or could we get training somewhere on how to implement an Adobe LiveCycle solution. If there are custom designers, could they implement a solution so that if the government moved fields a little bit, we could adjust the LiveCycle solution to fit the new form.
Thanks!

Question about data extraction from web forms

I am developing a simple web form in DreamWeaver MX for
increased accesibility for users who utilize screen reader
software, as navigating PDF forms is still currently very difficult
for most of the screen readers to navigate. I was wondering if
there is a way to take an .asp webform that a user fills out and
when they hit a print button it would extract the data from the
form and open an Adobe PDF form and populate the data they entered
into specific fields within the PDF form which would allow them to
print an official copy of the form they used the web version to
complete. Any insight into this possibility is greatly appreciated!
Thanks,

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...

Search icons from forms/reports builder and runtimes

Hello together,
who can help me?
I search the icons from the programs forms- and reports-builder and theirs runtimes (the little pictures in front off the filename).
I need these to import in another program. They should have 16x16 pixel.
Where can I find these icons?
Thanking you in advance.
Regards,
Sandra

Not a final answer to your questions as I don't know the directory structure for forms & reports builders, but you can search for *.ico files in the same (unless forms & Reports use different extensions for icon files).

(Urgent) Extract Code From form 4.5

I would like to know if there is any way of extracting or exporting the code from a form created in forms 4.5, into text format.
The form is in the executable format .frx.

Antony,
If the form is in fmx format, there is absolutely no way you can retrieve the code.
Fmx format is a final format. No reverse is possible.
Good luck,
Pedro.
