Flattening a PDF that contains an XML file

Hi I am hoping someone can help me.
We have a PDF document that contains an XML form. We are starting to utilize DocuSign software to electronically sign and route our forms. The problem is that this form cannot be converted in the DocuSign portal. We need a way to flatten the software once it has been completed and all information has been input into the form and sent to us by a faculty member. I have downloaded a couple of different JavaScript add ons and have tried them. One doesn't seem to do anything the other one UVSAR_selectiveFlatten.js attempts to flatten the form but then quits and pops up the message "Security settings or digital signatures in this file prevent flattening."
When I look at the security settings under properties for the form it says "No Security" in the drop down box and there are no signatures in the form. I am attempting all of this on a blank form.
Flattening or printing to PDF works ok on a PC but we have a few Mac users and that is where our problems are coming in. The only option to print to PDF is the little drop down box in the bottom left corner of the print dialog box that says save as PDF. When we try this it pops up the message, "Saving a PDF file when printing is not supported. Instead, choose File > Save." File>Save just saves a copy with all of the XML code, etc.
The only other option we have found is to save the file as an image but this then breaks the file into 3 pages. We also don't want to print the form and then have to rescan it back in.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what we could do to flatten the image so that it could be easily uploaded to DocuSign.
A link to the form is here: http://rgs.usu.edu/spo/files/uploads/forms/SP-01.pdf
Any help or advice that you may have to offer will be greatly appreciated.

Ok, this is an XML/XFA/Designer form.
You cannot use JavaScript designed for Acrobat forms (Acroforms). I suspect that is the problem. You must develop JavaScript using the Designer JavaScript object model. Not sure if that even supports flattening, since it isn't really a PDF at all with all that XML stuff.

  • Insert SWF that calls external XML files and images

    Hi
    I am using Acrobat XI Pro on a Windows 7 system.
    I have a PDF in which I have an SWF file. This SWF file contains text content that is called from an XML file and also some images that is called externally. I have added the folder that contains the XML file and the images by right-clicking the SWF > Properties > Resources > Add Directory. However, none of the content is loading.
    I have tried adding the images and xml file separately as well. Even that did not work.
    What could be wrong? Please advise.

    Debugging Flash content in a PDF from the Flash Pro or Flex editor is possible, but it's complicated (you need to juggle about with the SDK to load a special Acrobat plugin). If you're creating these SWFs yourself, the fastest way to debug is to add a bunch of ActionScript calls that report to Acrobat's console to tell you what's going on. Use ActionScript's externalInterface.call() and the Acrobat JS console.println() functions, just like if you were talking to JavaScript in a web page.
    Rich media resources cannot be imported globally in Acrobat. In theory it's possible (the ISO standard allows XObject references to shared assets) but there's no authoring tool.

  • How can I take the part that parses the .XML file and make it a procedure.

    CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY XMLSTUD6 AS
    Author: Jimmy Harris
    Created: 5/25/2006
    Purpose: 1.This package has an XML file initialized to a variable called DOC .
              2.It will then take the values from the XML file and insert them into a PL/SQL table.
              3.From the PL/SQL table it will insert values into the STUDENTS table.
              4.After step four above, the STUDLOAD procedure will insert (Sequence,Status, .XML file, USER, SYSDATE, ERROR_Message
                             into the AUDIT_XMLSTUD table regardless if insert status was successfull or not status is indicated by either an Y or
              NO and the original XML filed that was currently processed, the date and user who executed the procedure.
              If the status was NO then it will insert the Oracle SQLERRM massage, into the REASON_FOR_ERROR column.
                             If status is Y then REASOK_FOR_ERROR IS NULL.
                             5,Make sure you embed the xml file with an inner and outer ' ' ie: ' the whole .xml file string ' as the input
                             parameter into the STUDLOAD procedure.
    This package excepts the whole .XML file as a CLOB as an input parameter, so that the end-user will not have
                                  modify the code.      
    Modification History:     1.6/09/2006 JImmy Harris Modified code, added the Function "WORD_CONVERTER1" to accept the requested text data and
    return a coded value back to our Welligent system.     
                                  2. Was advised that a front end type of functionality was not neccesary for this issue so I removed the INSERT_XML_FILE,
                                  UPDATE_XML_FILE and the INSERT_XML_file.

    Try opening the problem files using a text editor or file viewer to see what the first few bytes contain. All valid FM binary files for FM 11 will contain <MakerFile 11.0> in the first bytes of the file.
    When updating books, it's sometimes better to just to create a new book file and add the files to that.
    When renaming files in a book, changes at the system level will break any links/cross-references between files, so it's always best to use the Rename option in the Book file to change FM file names. This will maintain the correct linkages.

  • Creating a pdf that contains forms

    I am trying to create a pdf that combines three pdfs and several forms that I created in LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2. I have enabled using Reader to complete the forms so that they can be saved once completed.
    My problem is that when I try to combine file in Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Extended, it won't let me add the forms because they are Adobe XMS forms.
    I did not intend to save the forms as XML forms, so I'm wondering how to save the forms so that they can be combined into one pdf.
    I tried the portfolio option, but feel that this format will be confusing to the people who need to use the packet.

    I actually found a workaround, although it doesn't save a lot of work...
    I opened the form I created in Designer in Acrobat, and then I printed it to a file. That generated a post-script file, which I ran through the Distiller to create a new pdf that is unaffected by the XML problem.
    Yes, I had to re-enter my fields, but at least I didn't lose all of the work - and formatting - I did in Designer.

  • How to: Flatten Adobe PDF Portfolio containing email and attachments

    How do you flatten an Adobe PDF Portfolio in Adobe XI Pro.  The Portfolio contains emails with various attachments.  I need to produce a single PDF with all emails and attachments as "images/pages" (as they would appear when printed).  Attachments need to follow their corresponding email in order.  All links, metadata, etc. will be stripped out and various text redactions applied to the final PDF. 

    I did try to open the resulting PDF to see if the fields/annotations were flattened. How would I know if they were flattened?
    The images I added get a thin blue border around them and become shaded when I click on them after flattening.
    Before flattening, they get a thin blue border with squares on each corner to drag, change size, etc.
    Does this mean they were successfully flattened?
    I do not understand this: “I just tried with Preflight (Acrobat 9) and it made all of the check boxes selected when it flattened them.” What check boxes are you referring to?
    Please see the below window. Is that where I am supposed to be? If so, am I supposed to click “Analyze and Fix” or do something else?
    Philip Jones in post 15 suggested “Selecting All then use the Flattening.” However, that makes no difference for me.

  • Generating one PDF from a big XML file

    Hi all,
    We're running into an issue with our batch run with Documaker Studio 11. One of the invoice extracts generated for Documaker reached 200,000 lines (the body has a repeating section that generates has several thousand entries).
    I've run our .BAT file on it as well as the test scenario and it takes forever to generate the PDF. Now we are wondering if there is a better way of generating such PDFs or do we resort to cutting the single extract into multiple PDFs? The template we use generates smaller PDFs quickly (6000 pdfs in less than 20 minutes).
    Next question is: is this a Documaker limitation or is there a way for us to restructure the xml and our template so that we can generate this monstrous PDF in one go at an acceptable rate?
    Thanks, Simon.

    It doesn't appear yet that the blame falls on the PDF. Is this a Gendata with single-step print situation? Or are you using a 2-step Gendata then GenPrint executable?
    The most likely scenario is related to memory use. The size of this run likely hits some level where thrashing starts to occur within the memory management of the operating system. You didn't mention, but this is likely running on a Windows box. Yes? What Windows version and what memory specifications do you have.
    It will require much more memory to do a single-step GenData with print rule as that means the entire transaction generation is still in memory as well as the PDF that is being built. Unlike a regular print stream, PDFs are not typically spooled out in the same manner and consume memory while pages are completed.
    A secondary question when you are talking about generating thousands of  sections. Does this job rely upon some type of group and/or subform pagination to occur? That might be if you have "stay together" or "min or max on page" requirements.  If this is your situation, the time may actually be in building the overall form set and not the actual print itself.
    More information is required before establishing that this is a "big PDF" problem. It may be that it is a "big/complex transaction" problem.

  • Create and populate pdf forms from a xml file for follow up information

    Forgive my amateurishness, I have a simple .xml that was created with excel with name, address, date of service, age, dob, account #, unit, and business name.  I need a form to be pre-populated with the .xml data but have other fields (mainly Yes/No check boxes) that need to be populated by other users.  This users would then finish filling out the form and return it to me via email.  I have created the form in LC Designer ES2 and created it with Acrobat Pro X.  However when I attempt to import data I can only see the first .xml record.  So my question is, how do I create multiple .pdf forms for each .xml record?  Do I need to use Java within LC Designer?  Or use Adobe Pro?  I am not afraid to attempt to code, (I have many excel programs that batch print to .pdf using vb).
    Thank you in advance

    I don't play with forms enough to give an answer. However, you might search the Forms sub-forum for a possible solution. You might also find better answers there, though many of the forms experts drop by here too.

  • How to parse a raw string that returns an XML file?

    Guys,
    Good day!
    I was assign to work on this but I did'nt know what to start. Please help me. The Problem is something like this:
    xml-file = pword(raw data string, token interpretation string)
    returns an XML file of:
    token type,
    token (value),
    position in file
    token terminator - condition that broke the type
    the format of the XML file is:
    <tokenizer date=mm/dd/yyyy file="name">
    <Token position=###>
    <type> quoted String </type>
    <tokenValue> "here" </tokenValue>
    <terminator> unquote </terminator>
    <position> #### </position>
    </Token>
    </Tokens>
    I need your suggestions and idea bout this. Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    I-Talk

    Strings don't "return files", and XML parsing is pretty much the same, regardless of source. So, what is it you're trying to do?

  • Making a PDF that contains multiple jpegs with captions

    Hi - I am not very savvy technically and need to create a PDF document with multiple jpeg images with captions.  Is it best for me to do this online by using the "convert to PDF" service at acrobat.com?  I would like to know if it will be easy for me to upload and label 4-5 images and then make that into a PDF before I pay the monthly fee.  I appreciate any help I can get!!  Thanks.

    CreatePDF doesn't have a word processing tool but you could do this using the Acrobat.com service to do this. Acrobat.com has a word processing tool and the ability to convert your file to PDF. You can test at this capability with a free trial.

  • How do I merge two accounts into one account that contains all the files from both?

    When I was running my MacBook Pro under Snow Leopard, I had one account for business that was encripted and another account that was unencripted for personal.  Now, under Lion, the whole disc gets encripted so I don't really need two acounts.  How do I merge the accounts together into one account and retain all the files from both?

  • A web service that returns a xml file and gets another xml file as input?

    Hi,
    I want to create a web service which gets an xml document as input then returns again an xml document.How can I create this kind of web service?
    Is this kind of implementation is possible?
    public Document mywebservice(Document input){
    Document d;
    return d;
    or do I have to use serialization processes which I don't know very much.
    I am waiting for your help.Thank you...

    If you want to deal directly with the Document and not want the SOAP engine to serialize/deserialize the XML into Java objects, then you can easliy implement this using Axis. Look at the Axis documentation (http://ws.apache.org/axis/java/user-guide.html#ServiceStylesRPCDocumentWrappedAndMessage) under the heading "Message Services". One of the provided API methods that Axis provides is in the form you want: public Document method(Document body). Hope that helps. As for how to implement the service using Axis, that is beyond the scope of this forum. Check the Axis docs for more help on that.

  • Replacing text that contain :, [ in a file with powershell

    So we have recent come across a situation where we need to replace a line of text in a txt file (config file). We have the following PS code, it opens the file, appears to process the command, closes and saves the file (at least the time stamp has updated).
    $old = ' "enabled_labs_experiments": [ ],'
    $new = ' "enabled_labs_experiments": [ "disable-direct-write" ],'
    (Get-Content "C:\Users\Jesse\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Local State – Copy") | ForEach-Object {$_ -replace $old, $new} | Set-Content "C:\Users\Jesse\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Local State – Copy"
    We do not need the variables but we did it that way instead of inline so that we could more easily see what we are changing.
    Basically nothing gets updated in this file. There are other places in this same file that we can update the code and it works perfectly so I have a feeling that it has to do with the [ ] or the : or some other character that PS uses. Unfortunately we cannot
    omit the : or the [ ] due to that being exactly what we need to change in the file.
    The following works perfectly
    $old="USA"
    $new="en"
    (Get-Content "C:\Users\Jesse\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Local State") | ForEach-Object {$_ -replace $old, $new} | Set-Content "C:\Users\Jesse\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Local State"
    Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!!

    You might be able to make use of [regex]::Escape() to automatically make those characters literal when being read in regex by escaping them.
    Not tested:
    $old = [regex]::Escape(' "enabled_labs_experiments": [ ],')
    $new = ' "enabled_labs_experiments": [ "disable-direct-write" ],'
    (Get-Content "C:\Users\Jesse\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Local State – Copy") | ForEach-Object {
    $_ -replace $old, $new
    } | Set-Content "C:\Users\Jesse\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Local State – Copy"
