Hiring Adobe Form-Performance problem

Hello,
We have developed a hiring Adobe form using HCM F & P. It has 8 pages, many user events. It gives the user option to enter
all infotypes used in hiring process. Now the issue is with the performance. The form is taking around 40 seconds to launch
and to do any user event. Let me know if you know of any method to improve the performance.
Is it possible to work with the form section by section, initially first page gets loaded, then on click of a button next page is loaded
like that. And when we do user event is it possible not to submit entire 8 pages to the backend and only submit the
required section.
Let me know if you have any idea.
Thanks!
Aravind

I completely agree with Chris.
We developed a very complex AIF that would have been much easier to develop in WDA, but the PM wanted a nicely designed UI for the users. We spent months on this process, when the same thing could have been done in a few weeks. W
There are a number of limitations in AIF that are available to you in WDA - it will make youre life simpler to take advantage of them and keep AIF for something less complex

Adobe Form Print Problem - Header is cut off without print preview

We are currently experiencing a problem when trying to print Adobe forms. We have created several forms and are experiencing the same issue with all forms. The issue occurs when we are trying to print a form. If we choose a print preview prior to printing, the form looks normal and prints fine. However, if we do a direct print (i.e. no print preview), then the top part of the form is cut off. It's almost like all of that data on the form gets shifted upward, cutting off about 1/2" to an 1" from the top of the form. We have tried printing to different printers and are ending up with the same results each time. We do not experience this issue with SAPScript.
I have searched several threads and haven't been able to find an issue quite like the one we are experiencing.
Has anyone ever exeperienced a problem like this before?
Currently using Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.1.2 and are on Netweaver 7.00 EhP1.
Thank you for any help.

I am going to go ahead and close this thread as I believe we have found a solution. Sai is correct that there is an issue with the design.
If anyone else runs into this problem, take a look at note 968394 that talks about differences between print preview and printing from spool. When you are in the print preview dialog box, under "Page Scaling," the default is "Shrink to printable area." So if your form went outside the margins, it would shrink to fit giving you the impression that the problem is not with the print preview rather than the form itself.
After moving the header stuff down a bit everything is printing normal both through the spool and via print preview.
Thank you!

Hi Vara,
Try using Invalidate( ) method on the node which is binded to your adobe form.
lo_nd_nodename->invalidate( ).

Adobe Form Formatting Problem

Hi ,
I am printing a Custom Adobe Form(ZPTRV_EXPENSE_FORM), which is a copy of standard form(PTRV_EXPENSE_FORM), through PR05. The problem here is in the subform for additional trip information, where the comments entered by the user are getting displayed, is not getting frmatted properly.
for example.
2.Had a joint meeting with Mr.ABC, Mr.PQR, Mr.XYZ.
is getting displayed as
2.Had a joint meeting with Mr.ABC, Mr.PQR, M r.XYZ.
I have not changed any property of the said text area.
I found a SDN post which says it has been done in the interface. In this case, I am using a standard interface which does not
have any code in code initialization or Form routine.
Could you please guide me through.
Regards,
Sagar

Hi Otto,
First of all thanx for your prompt and kind reply. As I said the text hs been copied from MS Word. There are two boxes in the
text, wierd characters as you pointed out. But there is a part of text which does not hav those characters, yet there is a space
infact multiple spaces that appear in the preview.
I tried typing the part of the text manually in the comments box without the spaces. Then too, some of my words are split into
two or two words put togather.
I have also checked changing the font, but that didnt help. And the binding of the text field is set to 'EDITOR'. But if you check
the context, there is no element called 'EDITOR' not does the form interface have a parameter which passes the long text meant
for comments . That was the reason I was asking, what are the possible ways we can populate data in a form.
Regards,
Sagar

Forms-Performance problem

I running Portal version 3.0.8.9.8 on Sun Solaris and I have perfomence problem when running forms. I have created a form against emp table and it takes over one minute to open the form. When I try to run a report against the same table it only takes a second to open and execute the query.
Does anyone have solution?
null

Hi all,
First, regarding 3.0.8 performance degradation, it is BUG # 1721741, the workaround:
Create 2 additional indexes:
CREATE INDEX WWA_MODULE_BINDINGS_IDX1
ON WWA_MODULE_BINDINGS$(
SUBSCRIBER_ID,
MODULE_ID,
MODULE_VERSION,
MODULE_BLOCK_ID,
MODULE_ATTR_ID)
CREATE INDEX WWA_MODULE_LOV_BINDINGS_IDX1
ON WWA_MODULE_LOV_BINDINGS$(
SUBSCRIBER_ID,
MODULE_ID,
MODULE_VERSION,
MODULE_BLOCK_ID,
MODULE_ATTR_ID)
Those indexes are missing in the standard fresh install but present if you run an upgrade from versions 3.0.6 or 3.0.7.
*****!!!!! Please note: This workaround can be applied ONLY to Portal forms version
3.0.8.9.8. Earlier versions of the Portal do not need those indexes !!!!!******
This bug is fixed in 3.0.9.
Now, 3.0.7 performance problems:
Is this normal?
No.
Is there anything that I can change to speed this up?
That's what I'm trying to figure out. Can you provide me with as much details as possible about your slow forms? Anything - form types (MD, forms on tables) any remote DB tables involved?, # of fields in the form?
Is there an index missing in the PORTAL30 schema?
No. Not in 3.0.7.
The more columns in the underlying table the longer the form takes to appear,
is this a general rule of thumb?
Yes.
Thanks,
Dmitry

Forms performance problem on the web, using webutil.

When starting the webutil-demoform on the Application Server,
webutils eight javabeans is loaded in 1 second.
I'm using &WebUtilLogging=Console&WebUtilLoggingDetail=Detailed for logging this.
When starting the same form from client the beans is loaded in ~30-40seconds.
Any suggestions to figure out why?

Problem solved!
Don't use the IP-address in the URL, use hostname or add an entry in your hostfile on the client. http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=5092063

Adobe Form - Priting problem

Hi,
There is requirement to print an adobe form in Black-white format and as per user's request we changed the company logo as well from colored to black-white. Now as per requirement that form is printing black-white only but the issue is, it is using color cartridge.
we checked all printer configuration but was no use and user want to print it as mono rather that colored. Printer is printing correctly for any other black-white document.
Please let me know for this how could I change the layout/border color (shown below) for objects used in this form like we changed the logo. Also plese let me know whether this issue can be handled in other way.
Regards,
Srivijay

Hi Srivijay,
I guess output type configured for adobe form will help you.
Have checked it with basis guy.

Adobe form distribution problem

Form created in LiveCycle and distributed with Adobe Pro...3 choices for distribution.
1) Through Acrobat.com (which stores the responses on Adobe servers)
2) By email (This is not an option for me because these forms can not invoke an email client on submission from the user. --> group policy locked-down machines.)
3) To an internal server
Option 3 works great for me as long as the person submitting the form is on my LAN. The problem is that we have users not on the LAN submitting the form. My repository for the responses needs to be accessible from the internet.
What I tired:
Shared folder on server. Full permissions for "everyone" just to avoid that as a problem during configuration....
Folder web shared by IIS.
Trying to use the distribution wizard to set this up for that folder. It wants a UNC path but that will not work for external users and no matter what http path I put in there is tells me it is unable to create the shared folder....
Obviously, if the forms can distribute and submit to Acrobat.com then they can submit to my own server. The question is how can I do this? Very frustrating.

Hello Gregg,
I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble distributing your form. However, I'm not sure I understand exactly what's going wrong when you try to use Acrobat.com to distribute the form; what happens when you select that option? It should be a mostly automated process, and there's a video on using Acrobat.com for form distribution here:
http://www.adobe.com/designcenter/video_workshop/?id=vid0348
If you are not interested in using Acrobat.com for forms (it's not entirely clear whether you are trying to use Acrobat.com or another server), please post your question to the Acrobat forum; as this forum is for Acrobat.com questions, we are not able to help with questions specific to other Adobe products and services.
Here is the home page for Acrobat Help and Support:
http://www.adobe.com/support/acrobat/
Here is a link to the moderated Acrobat Users forums:

Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Adobe Forms distribute problem

Hi
I am trying to distribute a form using the server method to automatically collect responses - using Adobe XI standard - whilst the option to collect by server is there the collection method is set to manual - meaning that all responses are collected via email and have to be clicked individually - painful! The option for delivery method is set to manual and I cant see a way of changing it - any help would be magic!
Thanks

Adobe Forms Printing Problem

Hi, I have 2 bosy pages and 2 master pages. B1 is attached to M1 and B2 to M2. After B1 fills in the pagination Tab I gave u201CGoto Page M2 u201C.
I want to print M2 and B2 on One condition. How can I achieve this ?
I want to know what are the events that trigger after the Page B1 fills and hits u201CGoto Page M2u201D

I don't think you can hide a Master Page; Master Pages are not directly displayed to the Users, only Body Pages are displayed;
So, try changing your code to hide the Body Page:
if ($record.POS =="MAN") then
B2.presence = "hidden"
endif
Please see this Post:
Re: Remove a page at runtime

Problem with deep structure in Adobe Forms

Hi ,
I am converting smartform into adobe forms. While converting the program code in the code initialization of the smart forms also get transformed to adobe forms the problem is my internal table is of type deep structure while passing it through the tables parameter i am getting error in adobe forms .But while passing the internal table through import parameter its not giving error.The same code works fine with smartforms. I dont know why its not taking the structure of internal table in adobe forms properly .It happens only for deep strucure formal normal tables it works fine in table parameters .If any one has come across this scenario please share your ideas.
Best Regards,
Sreeram

If I were you, I would never do this through any program. The only secure, reliable way is to rewrite everything by your own hands. Even if we could argue, your way works as well (and could be faster at the beginning), at the firt moment you will be asked to perform any tiny change in this "imported" thing, you will cry your eyes out (and understand why it is the only useful way to rewrite everything manually).
