Help needed on Dynamic XML PDF

Hello,
I have an urgent need of help. We had a client requirement to develolp a custom form fillable Flowable template. We used adobe LiveCycle Designer to create a flowable form where fields can be suppressed\expanded to save space. LiveCycle form fields are databinded with the XML Schema at design time. After creating forms, data is prepopulated using the 3rd party ITextsharp for .NET dll using a FillXFA API. Filled PDF document appears fine with the data by adobe reader.
However, after we try to either convert this form to an Image I don't see DATA in the form and only see the static template. Our requirement is to take the populated PDF and merge it with another static PDF document. I am new to the adobe livecycle forms and needs assistance. I guess the issue is that final populated form is still XML, So If I open this form that is prepopulated with data into LiveCycle I don't see the data and only template, But we can view the populated form fine with data through adobe reader. Even through windows file preview I only see template, but after I open the file through reader I see the data. If through some way we can convert this snapshot (dynamic pdf = populated data with template) to a static pdf or flatten out the dynamic pdf, it will suffice our requirement.We are sort of stuck from past 10 days on this issue. Any help\feedback is greatly appreciated.
Please let me know if you need any input or examples. Thanks for your time.
Thank You,
Himali Vaid

You have opened a number of related questions today. I'd like to see the other ones closed before you continue with this one.
I'll lock this but will re-open it once the others are marked as solved.

Adobe Reader for Android to work with dynamic XML PDF forms?

Any possibility that Reader for Android will ever work with dynamic XML PDF forms created by Abobe Acrobat Pro?

GoodReader ($4.99), ezPDF Reader ($2.99) and PDF Expert ($9.99) are well rated and support many more features.
Here a link for your reference: http://indesignsecrets.com/for-interactive-pdf-not-all-readers-are-equal.php

Load image dynamically by scripting to dynamic xml pdf, is it possible?

Hi All,
I've uploaded static pdf form to http://groups.google.com/group/livecycle/web/logo.pdf.
The form contains ImageField.
In the "docReady" event of the form I wrote a script:
ImageField1.value.image.href="http://www.quicksoft.co.il/images/
quicksoftlogo2.jpg";
When the form is loaded the ImageField shows the image from the url
I've updated in the script.
Once the form is saved as dynamic xml pdf the script stop working.
Is that means that it is not possible to load images by scripting to
dynamic xml pdfs?
Anyone familiar with workarounds for it?
Thanks in advance,
Rbuz

I got an answer from Adobe:
Dynamic change of an image href has been disabled due to potential security issues. There are however a few workarounds to choose from:
1. Embedding the images in the form as hidden objects. They can then be set to visible on initialize or clicking a button. This will affect performance, but if the images are in a compressed format, this can be minimized.
2. Create a Web service interface to grab the image from wherever they are stored, base64 encode it and return it to the form. You would also have to update the bindings for the image field on the form (a one time operation).

Converting Livecycle Dynamic XML pdf forms to Word?

How do I convert a dynamic XML pdf form created from Livecycle designer ES to Microsoft word? I have Acrobat X and when I click on File -> Save As - > and choose 'Save as type' as "Microsoft Word Document (*.doc)", I am getting this message: "Save as failed to process this document. No file was created."
Is this because its a dynamic XML form with many javascripts in the form design? if not, what could be the cause of this that is making the file not savable to word format? All of these forms are created from Livecycle designer and I have tried using Acrobat X to convert them to word but it doesnt work.

Hi,
don't expect an exact result.
The conversion always is an interpretation of the given layout and may be not perfect in all details.
There is not script you can add to a button to automate this workflow, especially not for Reader, as it doesn't have any export functions.
I tested Adobe ExportPDF services, which are available in Reader XI, but those only export the shell PDF of a XFA form, so it's not usable for those PDF's (image below).

Dynamic XML PDF not importing fields

I have a PDF developed in Livecycle and saved as a dynamic XML.
My database is MS Access and from this I've exported a query saved as an XML file, a XSD schema and an XSL stylesheet. (files attached)
I'm trying to populate the PDF from the above mentioned files client-side. I have the fields set up to display in a table with repeating rows.
It seems that I've set everything up okay and I get no error generated in the log file when I preview the PDF in Livecycle, but, the fields are not
being generated.
I suspect maybe this is because I don't have the nested forms set up properly for a flowed subform. But I should get at least the first row generated
shouldn't I, if it is reading the nodes in the XML?
Attached is (a mock-up) of the PDF along with the XML, XSD and XLS. This form should flow to other pages when dynamically built and I'm hoping to
display the header on each page (the header will be on the Master Page -- it will contain site links, etc.)
I hope to not only import data to a PDF this way but also to export fields from the PDF in the same way for database edits...
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong in the attached?
And, on another note... do all of the above need to be in the same folder together on the server or can I put the PDF in one folder and the XML, XSD
and XLS a different folder? (Or the PDF and XLS in the same folder and XML and XSD files in a different folder, etc.)...
Thanks for any reponses on this.

Sorry for the delay in replying to this post. I got stuck at a friend's from the weekend snow we had... and am finally back on my own computer.
Just before leaving Friday I found the problem with the form not displaying data fields read from the XML.
It's a bit embarrassing to admit but, per Steve's instruction here to change the form preview properties (file/form properties) (thanks, Steve!) - I changed the preview from 'print one-sided' to 'interactive' and noticed that I had not set up the link to the XML under 'Data File'. Duh! So, it is reading the data from the XML now.
However... For the form to display, I had to (under 'connection properties) take the XSLT file off. Under 'Connection Properties' the form is set up as XML Schema with the link to the XSD set up.
The problem now is that a few of the dynamic fields are numbers. These number fields in the database only have two digits to the right of the decimal point (as in 93.79) but when the form loads these fields in the table in preview mode these fields contain 8 digits to the right of the decimal point (as in 93.79362082). I don't know why this is except that maybe it is because it's no longer reading from the XSLT file. All I want it to do is read the field exactly as it is in the database...
The table on the form doesn't display as it should either. The table expands with the rows its presenting but this runs to the very bottom of the page and doesn't flow to the next page. I've tried changing the size of the 'root' form on the Master page as well as the size of the 'parent' subform of the table subform but the table still runs to the bottom of the page... I'll keep playing around with this until I fix it unless someone can point me in the right direction...
Thanks for any leads on this...
(new corrected file attached)
Graham, this stuff really is interesting! These handful of files working together to build a dynamic PDF, reading the database XSD schema, an XML file and the XSL file as well as throwing in some Javascript functions is really cool... I'm also (hopefully) planning to have Cold Fusion query the database, depending on the login person's admin privilages, parse the fields from the database and build the XML file from this data 'on the fly' at login... Quite a lot going on in the background here to build the PDF! (I wish I could answer your question about the stylesheet but, obviously from the above, I'm a novice at this - I'm new at this and trying to grope my way around this stuff in the dark. These forums have been helpful as well as googling questions, but, there is still a learning curve here. I'm pretty rough with Javascript as well and that's a big feature of this stuff...)
Thanks to anyone for direction on getting this file to display properly and the number fields to show the same as in database...

Dynamic XML PDF crashing out in Windows 8

Hi all -
I created a PDF using LiveCycle Designer, saved as a dynamic XML form. The form works perfect on any Windows 7 machine I have ever tested against, on machines using Acrobat reader X, XI, and all Pro versions (I've been building these types of forms for about 5 years now). But on my wife's Windows 8 system with Acrobat Reader XI (latest update installed) it crashes out without an error message every time within seconds of opening the form. It works perfect on my my Windows 7 Acrobat Reader XI, same update of the reader. ANyone know what Windows 8 problem is?

Does Adobe Reader work ok with other PDFs on the same machine? If you start it from START instead of double clicking and leave it, does it stay open?

Help Needed in Dynamic Sql or alternate to Dynamic Sql

Hi Am working in sqlserver 2008 R2 and here is my Table structure and SPC
;create table SalaryReport(IdSalary int primary key identity(1,1),
IDMainCompany int,IDSubCompany int,Salary money,Incentive int,NoofEmployees int, SalaryDate datetime, Creditscore int );
insert into SalaryReport (IDMainCompany,IDSubCompany,Salary,Incentive,NoofEmployees,SalaryDate,Creditscore)
( Select 100 as IDMainCompany , 1000 as IDSubCompany ,200000 AS Salary, 20000 as Incentive, 500 as NoofEmployees,
'2014-01-01' as SalaryDate, 60 as Creditscore union all
Select 100 as IDMainCompany , 1001 as IDSubCompany ,300000 AS Salary, 40000 as Incentive, 600 as NoofEmployees,
'2014-01-01' as SalaryDate , 70 as Creditscore union all
Select 100 as IDMainCompany , 1002 as IDSubCompany ,400000 AS Salary, 40000 as Incentive, 1500 as NoofEmployees,
'2014-01-01' as SalaryDate , 45 as Creditscore union all
Select 101 as IDMainCompany , 1003 as IDSubCompany ,30000 AS Salary, 2000 as Incentive, 100 as NoofEmployees,
'2014-01-01' as SalaryDate, 60 as Creditscore union all
Select 102 as IDMainCompany , 1004 as IDSubCompany ,450000 AS Salary, 25000 as Incentive, 700 as NoofEmployees,
'2014-01-01' as SalaryDate, 30 as Creditscore)
Sample Test Script:
DECLARE @IDMainCompany int = 100;
DECLARE @Process_Date datetime = '2014-01-01';
declare @Query nvarchar(max);
SELECT
CAST(SR.IDMainCompany AS VARCHAR(12)) AS IDMainCompany
,CAST(SR.IDSubCompany AS VARCHAR(12)) AS IDSubCompany
,CAST(SR.Salary AS VARCHAR(12)) AS Salary
,CAST(SR.Incentive AS VARCHAR(12)) AS Incentive
,CAST(SR.NoofEmployees AS VARCHAR(12)) AS NoofEmployees
,CAST(SR.SalaryDate AS VARCHAR(15)) AS SalaryDate
,CAST((SR.Creditscore) AS VARCHAR(15)) AS average
FROM SalaryReport SR
WHERE SR.IDMainCompany = @IDMainCompany
AND DATEPART(MM, SR.SalaryDate) = DATEPART(MM, @Process_Date)
UNION ALL
SELECT
'' AS IDMainCompany
,'' AS IDSubCompany
,'Total: ' + CAST(SUM(SR.Salary) AS VARCHAR(12)) AS Salary
,'Total: ' + CAST(SUM(SR.Incentive) AS VARCHAR(12)) AS Incentive
,'Total: ' + CAST(SUM(SR.NoofEmployees) AS VARCHAR(12)) AS NoofEmployees
,'' AS SalaryDate
,'Total: ' +CAST(avg(SR.Creditscore) AS VARCHAR(12)) AS Totalaverage
FROM SalaryReport SR
WHERE SR.IDMainCompany = @IDMainCompany
AND DATEPART(MM, SR.SalaryDate) = DATEPART(MM, @Process_Date)
group by IDMainCompany, DATEPART(MM, SalaryDate)
the sample data i posted is having less columns. actually i have 20 columns in the select list. Also the parameters to the where condition i gave two i.e IDMainCompany, SalaryDate. I will also need to use IDSubCompany for some case. My skeleton will be
Create Procedure Test(@IDMainCompany int, @IDSubCompany int = null, @SalaryDate datetime)
as
BEGIN
IF(@IDMainCompany is not null && @IDMainCompany > 0 && @SalaryDate is not null && @SalaryDate <> ' ' &&
@IDSubCompany is null)
BEGIN
--The logic what discussed on previous posts will falls here with @IDMainCompany, @SalaryDate as parameter to the where condition
END
IF(@IDMainCompany is not null && @IDMainCompany > 0 && @SalaryDate is not null && @SalaryDate <> ' ' &&
@IDSubCompany is null && @IDSubCompany > 0 )
BEGIN
--The logic what discussed on previous posts will falls here with @IDMainCompany, @SalaryDate,@IDSubCompany as parameter to the where condition
END
END
As said i need to include 20 columns in the select list and as union all used on the previous sample there are 20 columns on the first query and 20 columns on the second query after the union all. The SPC will become big. If i repeat this for second if condition,
it will be too big. How can i reduce this writing more lines.
I am aware of the concept dynamic sql. Is there any other way to do this? or if dynamic sql is the only option, can anyone help me rewriting this select statements as dynamic sql
Could anyone please assist me
loving dotnet

thanks for your reply and yes, i am invoking this from my asp.net application using C# language. Would you like to share something?
<<
Yes,
You can use client side dynamic sql. I'm not talking about concatenating strings. I'm talking about using Runtime Text Tamplates (preprocesed templates in Visual Studio 2010).
Add a new "Runtime Text Template" item to your VS project. Be "MyReportTemplate.tt" the file name of the runtime text template. The content of this file should be something like the following:
<#@ template language="C#" #>
<#@ assembly name="System.Core" #>
SELECT
-- part of your query goes here
-- the interesting part come next
FROM
SalaryReport SR
WHERE
SR.IDMainCompany = @IDMainCompany
<# if (IDSubCompany.HasValue && IDSubCompany.Value > 0) { #>
AND SR.IDSubCompany = @IDSubCompany
<# } #>
AND
DATEPART(MM, SR.SalaryDate) = DATEPART(MM, @Process_Date)
GROUP BY
IDMainCompany, DATEPART(MM, SalaryDate)
Add a new c# code file named MyReportTemplate.partial.cs closed to MyReportTemplate.tt with the following code:
public partial class MyReportTemplate
public int? IDSubCompany { get; set; }
Then, to execute the query you can write a code similar to the following:
public DataTable ExecuteReport(int mainCompanyId, int? subCompanyId, DateTime processDate )
using (var cn = CreateConnection())
using (var cmd = new SqlCommand())
using (var adapter = new SqlDataAdapter(cmd))
cmd.Connection = cn;
var template = new MyReportTemplate
IDSubCompany = subCompanyId
cmd.CommandText = template.TransformText();
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@IDSubCompany", subCompanyId == null ? (object) DBNull.Value : subCompanyId.Value);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@IDMainCompany", mainCompanyId);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Process_Date", processDate);
var table = new DataTable();
adapter.Fill(table);
return table;

Help needed, Createing Dynamic User input

Hello,
I am attempting to create some dynamic user input by "predicting" what the user requires in a text box.
For example if the user enters "Smi" I have a select list pop up which gives the user all options that begin with "Smi".
I am able to achieve the popups but the interface is quite jerky and not terribly responsive I am trying to solve this by using a thread which starts and stops when new input is received but it is still not quite right.
The program uses a Sorted TreeSet to hold the data (I thought this would give me a quick search time) and a simple interface at this stage.
Any help would be fantastic
Thanks in advance :P

Help needed, Providing Dynamic User input

Hello,
I am attempting to create some dynamic user input by "predicting" what the user requires in a text box.
For example if the user enters "Smi" I have a select list pop up which gives the user all options that begin with "Smi".
I am able to achieve the popups but the interface is quite jerky and not terribly responsive I am trying to solve this by using a thread which starts and stops when new input is received but it is still not quite right.
The program uses a Sorted TreeSet to hold the data (I thought this would give me a quick search time) and a simple interface at this stage.
Any help would be fantastic
Thanks in advance :P

Help needed to STOP xml loading

Hi there,
I'm pretty new to the action script side of things, have had some help on here already and have also been pulled up for asking for too much help.
Well I'm kind of getting the hang of it now, but am having one major problem with the site I'm making, basically I've been following a tutorial for an xml based website, just about got my head round it but I need one line of code to stop the xml movie clip playing when I load a new one (eg when you navigate to a new page.
this is the current code, if anyone can help I'd be massively thankful, this project has been doing my head in for weeks now - fingers crossed folks D
// onLoad XML function
function loadXML(success) {
if (success) {
// If the XML loads successfully, count how many projects there are in the file.
_root.projectCount = this.firstChild.childNodes.length; // PROJECT node in XML file
// Then run a function that builds arrays out of the XML data.
SS_Arrays();
} else {
// If the xml data did not load, show message on stage by populating the description field.
_root.description = "Error: Could not load XML";
function SS_Arrays() {
for (var count = 0; count < _root.projectCount; count++) {
var nodeObj = objXML.firstChild.childNodes[count];

// because we'll be making duplicates of it in the next part of the function

Hi,
In DBMS_JOBS_RUNNING you can find the sid of the session.
Use this sid to identify the session in v$session and kill the session with:
'alter system kill session 'sid,serial#';'
Don't forget to mark the job as broken or remove it from the job queue.
OR
Before 10g, if you want to stop all jobs, you can simply set JOB_QUEUE_PROCESSES to zero.
In 10g, Oracle intrduced scheduler_job with many advanced features.
In this post I do not want to deal with different features of scheduler_jobs.
In 10g, it is possible to schedule job either in dba_jobs or dba_scheduler_jobs.
Setting JOB_QUEUE_PROCESSES to zero stops only jobs in dba_jobs which means that jobs in scheduler are still running .
In order to disable jobs in dba_scheduler_job, the following script should be run for each job in scheduler.
BEGIN
sys.dbms_scheduler.disable( '"schema?"."job name?"' );
END;

Tom

Help needed to load XML into DB table

I need some serious help if someone can spare the time. I am completely new to XML and don't really understand it yet but I need to be able to load an XML file (example) below.
I want to load this into a table that would look like the following:
CHAPTER_TITLE DOC_HTML DOC_TITLE
Men's Health 494440 AAAAA
Men's Health 496812 BBBBB
etc....
<?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?>
<BookCollections Quantity=1 Title=Emis Books Collection>
 <Book Folder=PILSS Title=Patient Support>
 <Chapter Title=Men''s Health>
 <Document DocHTML=494440 Title=AAAAA />
 <Document DocHTML=496812 Title=BBBBB />
 <Document DocHTML=498923 Title=CCCCC />
 <Document DocHTML=499844 Title=DDDDD />
 <Document DocHTML=499901 Title=EEEEE />
 </Chapter>
 </Book>
</BookCollections>I have read through the documentation I could find but I can't get it to work. I had a simple procedure which loaded the text file as a CLOB and then inserted it into an XMLTYPE column but even that wouldn't work. I would rather it loaded as above in seperate columns.
Is there a simple example someone can help me out with?

That is very close ORA_SID thank you. But I get the ORA-19025 error when I have more than one Chapter section. The example was a cut down version, ther real file has thousands of Chapters.
e.g.

Help needed when dynamically creating new stage sprites

Morning folks,
I'm feeling very rusty when asking this question! It feels
like I should
know the answer but simply unable to comprehend where I'm
going wrong at the
moment!!
I'm in the process of creating a Director piece that involves
the user
having to drag "shapes" onto a pre-defined grid [drag and
drop style] --
there are currently three different types of shape that can
be dragged of
which many of the shapes can be of the same type. So I need
to display the
three shape types on one side of the screen and allow the
user to drag and
drop as many as they wish to the girded area.
I've written the drag and drop routine but now having
difficulty in
producing the dynamic creation of a new draggable shape; so
far I've managed
to create a new "shape" sprite from my cast library and
placed it in the
correct location. Then I create and add a new instance of my
"Drag and Drop"
behaviour onto the newly created sprite, but this is where it
goes wrong --
although I can drag the dynamically created sprite, once
dropped Director
complains of not knowing what its local properties are, for
example I'm
unable to reference the locH and locV of the newly created
sprite!
I'm really at a loss on this one and would appreciate any
kind of guidance!
Many thanks in advance, Mark ;-)

Help needed with sending XML data out of Dashboard design/ Xcelsius

Hi All,
I did this a year back and got it right, but now am not able to get it, probably Ive made a small mistake which I have been overlooking.
I selcted Enable XML send in my XML data connection and dfined the connection name as "Range_1" and Range name also as "Range_1"
Now I worte this servlet in Java:
public class PostTestServlet extends HttpServlet{
 protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response){
 String param1=request.getParameter("Range_1");
 System.out.println(param1);
 protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response){
 System.out.println("Get Called");
 doPost(request,response);
 System.out.println("abcd");
Deployed it to Apache Tomcat 6.
Also selected the required usage options in Xcelsius for sending data every 10 seconds.
Now the servlet gets called, I see it in the console.
But the request.getParameter("Range_1") is returning null.
Tried many things, not able to figure it out. Any help?
Thanks
Nikhil

Hi,
Xcelsius/Dashboards will convert the range of values that you want to send into XML.
It then will POST the XML when it calls the web page.
For example, if you had created three ranges to send to your web page:
A (a single cell)
B (a single cell)
C (a row of three cells)
The data in the POST input stream for the web page will look something like this:
<data>
<variable name="A">
 <row>
 <column>10</column>
 </row>
</variable>
<variable name="B">
 <row>
 <column>15</column>
 </row>
</variable>
<variable name="C">
 <row>
 <column>1</column>
 <column>2</column>
 <column>3</column>
 </row>
</variable>
</data>
I don't have an example for ASP, but I do for a JSP (attached).

Matt

Help needed regarding Dynamic Programming

Hi,
While doing dynamic programming , we bind the context variable with two types of
values .
1 . ddic
2 . extern
My doubt is in which case we should use ddic and where to use extern .
Can anybody help me out regarding this.
Thanks a lot.

Hi Ki,
Predefined, Web Dynpro UI-specific, and user-defined Dictionary types all have the
prefix ddic:.
wdContext.getNodeInfo()
.addAttribute(
"Visibility",
"ddic:com.sap.ide.webdynpro.uielementdefinitions.Visbility")
Logical Dictionary types from Adaptive RFC models have the prefix extern:.
