How do I create Bookmarks in LiveCycle Designer?

I've created a fillable form using Adobe Live 8 Pro, I distribute the form using Acrobat. I haven't found a way to create bookmarks in LiveCycle so I create them using Acrobat first before I distribute the form...Is there another way?
The problem I'm running into with this approach is that I cannot auto-enable the bookmarks when the PDF is opened because File > Properties > Initial View is disabled.
So given that I've created a form using Adobe Live, what do I have to do to get bookmarks to launch in the initial view?
Does anyone out there know how to do this?
thanks in advance.
Jon

Thanks. I have a Mac and had to do one more step, which was to go to the top line of symbols, click on the cog wheel (organize bookmarks) and then select "new folder." You got me in the right place to start looking.

Creating Bookmarks in Livecycle Designer 7.1

Greetings All,
Is it possible to create bookmarks in Livecycle Designer 7.1 and link it to pages, sections within pages and text fields. If it is possible, could anyone show how to do that, provide examples or a reference on how to do that. Appreciated your help.
Thanks.

Hi Muhammad,
I am not sure about availability of bookmarks in LiveCycle Designer 7.1. But you have setFocus method available in designer. This method you can use to set the cursor position.
Syntax for this method is:
xfa.host.setFocus("xfa[0].form[0].form1[0].#subform[2].TextField2[0]");

Hi Hoser117,
Have you considered using a LiveCycle Designer PDF form? LiveCycle Designer comes in the box with Acrobat 9 Pro. Here's are links to some videos from acrobatusers.com that show how to create expandable/flowable tables and fields in a LiveCycle Designer PDF form-

Updated Windows RT 8 to 8.1
Uninstaled Adobe Reader Touch 1.3 and instaled 2.0 Build 84770
Additional Information
The form was created 10 or 11 months ago, and we are pretty sure that we were able to open it a while back
The same PDF file opens just fine in Windows 8.1 using Adober Reader XI 11,0.06, it is only the app that is affected.
The document cannot be opened by any other mobile app that we have tried or on another mobile OS (iOS)
Any ideas?
Thanks & Regards
Jim

The user's assertion is surprising to me, but perhaps I'm missing something important. I thought the correct position was from the conclusion of my earlier post "it can't be done". Adobe state their Reader Touch doesn't support XFA (http://blogs.adobe.com/readermobile/2012/12/13/adobe-reader-for-windows-8-tablets/). Unless (see that blog entry) you changed the type of form.

How can one create bookmark folders?

How can one create bookmark folders in Firefox on a Samsung Galaxy S4? I have tried a couple of the suggested apps in Google Play Store but can't get them to interface with Firefox. Thanks for your help!!

You would need to set up Firefox Sync and manage your bookmarks on desktop Firefox. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-set-up-firefox-sync

How to install fonts in Adobe Livecycle Designer

Hi All,
   I want to install new fonts in adobe LiveCycle designer.
   I installed this fonts in Control Panel >Fonts>File -->Install New Fonts and it is possible to see them in Livecycle Designer but when i preview the adobe print form this not work.
I found in the installation of the ADS configuration Guide this informations.
Adobe document services require access to fonts that are installed with the Font Manager Module. This module contains a number of Adobe bundled fonts installed in /usr/sap//j2ee/os_libs/adssap/FontManagerService/fonts/adobe.
You can also add fonts obtained from other vendors. The types of fonts you can add are OpenType® (.otf), TrueType® (.ttf), and PostScript® Type 1 (.pfb/.pfm).
So the question is how can i install new fonts so as to use in Adobe Forms?
I will appreciate any help and documentations about.
Thank you,
   Ari

Create a subdirectory called fonts below the

Create a subdirectory called customer below the fonts directory created in the previous step
Copy your font file(s) into the customer directory
Restart the "Document Services Font Manager" for the changes to take effect.Use Visual Admin on the Adobe Document server
i.      Expand "Server à Services "
ii.      Restart the Document Services Font Manager

Created form in Livecycle Designer 8, send to 2nd party to complete some fields, want to lock those fields so that when sent to 3rd party to complete cannot edit

I am a newby to this product and have created a form from a PDF. I used Adobe Livecycle Designer to place text fields in form. I saved, then enabled user rights. I sent to 2nd party to open in Adobe reader. This person needs to populate some of the fields. Once this is done the 2nd person is to email to 3rd person who will complete the outstanding fields and return the form to the second person.
How do I stop the 3rd person from editing the text the second person put in the form?
I want the second person to receive the complete form back not just the responses put in the text fields? Does this happen automatically or do you have to tell it send complete form.
Thanks from Sandra in Australia

How do you save the file? Do you directly send it via mail with a button? (If the question is silly I'm sorry, because I have no lincenses... so I am completly unaware of the choices you have.)
You need to be able to save a file Reader Extension licenses I think...
Probably you should ask for the fake E-Mailbutton, to be able to send it to different people one after the other...
Make an invisible Decimalfield.
The preSave/preSubmit field javascript...:
this.rawValue = this.rawValue + 1
if (this.rawValue > 0)
{Decimalfield1.access="readOnly";}
if (this.rawValue > 1)
{Decimalfield2.access = "readOnly"}
will lock decimalfield1 after the first save/submit and decimalfield2 after the second. Normally that should do the job.
PS: Another way to save the document and lock ALL fields, you don't have to buy additional licenses is print it as pdf.

Fillable Forms Created with Adobe LiveCycle Designer 7.0

I created a fillable form using Adobe LiveCycle Designer 7.0. Prior to using the form for clients we sent it around to numerous people to make sure it's working properly. We have experienced problems with users that are using older versions of Reader or full versions of Acrobat (5.0 & 6.0). Some problems we have had:
1.) We understand you cannot save the filled out form in older versions, but some users are not even able to print the form (the program shuts down). When the form is opened in an older version it lets the user know that they cannot save the form and it must be printed if they need a copy, but we had one user using version Acrobat version 7.0 that received this message.
2.) Users with full versions of Acrobat 7.0 have been able to fill out the form and save it, but when the form gets back to us it is blank.
3.) Users with Acrobat and Reader 7.0 cannot use the print button, it just does not work.
We were looking to see if there is a way of saving a fillable form down to an older version to see if this can solve our problem. I have not had any luck finding out how to do that. If anyone knows how to do this could you let me know? If not I guess we will go back to the old fashioned way of having the user print the form and fill it out.
Thank you!

I'm actually having the exact same problem. I imported a form into Designer 7.0 as an Adobe Reader 6.0 "compatible" form. At first, there were several warning messages in various fields but I changed all of these fields so that they would be compatible. The form works in 6.0, however, whenever a user initially opens the form in 6.0 a message pops up promting the user to upgrade to 7.0 for the form to work. Over half of our users are running Adobe Reader 6.0 so any information on how to prevent this dialouge from coming up would be very appreciated.
Thank you,
Jeff

How do i create a view in designer?

I want to create views in designer to mimic the queries existing in the old access database but I can't figure out how to do it. As a last resort I can create the views manually with SQL after generation but I would like to do it at design time if I can.
Does anyone know how to do this? Presumably I would need to do it in the server model?
thx
adam

You can create views in the design editor. Same way as you would create tables there.
