How do I print on an existing form

I have preprinted forms on paper that want to fill out with acrobat reader. I have the form already installed in reader but when I
print my printer prints the form and what I have filled in. What I want to do is only what I have typed printed on to my pre-
printed forms which load in printer. Is there a setting that will allow me to do this.
Thanks
Bill

Instructions for printing two sided are on page 38 of the manual you received. If you do not have this, download it from the web.
NOTE:
The printer driver does not support manual duplexing. Two-sided printing
requires an HP Automatic Two-sided Printing Accessory (duplexer) to be installed
on the printer.
Do you have this optional accessory installed?
Say thanks by clicking the Kudos Thumbs Up to the right in the post.

How do you print data from a form?

From the interactive report, there's a built in function to print to variious formats (e.g., PDF, CSV, etc).
As long as the columns do not exceed the width of a page, it's okay.
But what I want to do is when a user clicks on 'edit' from the interactive report and displays the data entry screen, I want to be able to have a 'Print' button to print the data from a form.
Don't want to manually modify the URL to change a parameter to print.
Really appreciate any help I can get on this matter!!!

I want to be able to have a 'Print' button to print the data from a form.Create a Print button in the form page with an <tt>onclick</tt> attribute that calls the method<tt>print()</tt> method:
onclick="window.print();"
Don't want to manually modify the URL to change a parameter to print. Sounds like you want to be able to control which page elements are printed and how they are formatted?
This is quite straightforward using a print media style sheet.
You'll need to identify CSS selectors (usually IDs and classes) from the page HTML for the components and regions that are not to be printed: a web inspector such as that found in Safari, or the Firefox+Firebug combo is useful for this. It's also a good idea to give all of your regions a unique static region ID to assist with this identification. Using this information, you can construct the style sheet to exclude all of the unwanted content using <tt>display: none</tt> rules.
In a simplified example, say you identify that there are 4 regions on the page, and you only want to print region 3. You would add the following style sheet to the page HTML Header:
<style type="text/css" media="print">
#region-1, #region-2, #region-4 {
display: none;
</style>+{message:id=2475831}+ is a solution to a similar problem, and see this article for more enhancements that can be included in your print style sheet.
Really appreciate any help I can get on this matter!!!You'll get effective help more quickly if you include the following information upfront when posting a question. This enables others to understand, replicate and determine the most appropriate fix without wasting time asking all kinds of supplementary questions:
- APEX version
- DB version and edition
- Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener)
- Browser(s)/version(s) used
- Theme used
- Templates used
- Region/Report/Process type

How to issue print command from report/form server to client printer on web

1) We have a client server application which is to be deployed on the web environment. The reports generated in our application are having a destination type as File. These reports are printed after applying some print format (escape sequences) which are passed on to the printer programmatically at runtime while printing.
Now when this application is shifted on to the Application server (Forms server & Reports Server )in web environment ,the report outputs would be generated in the application server as against the client in client server environment as the report server is on the application server.
Now while printing/accessing the report the output file will not be available to the client unless it is pushed on to the client side from the server . I am able to see reports in pdf/html output but in this case layout of my reports gets changed and I dont want to change my layouts or reformat my report layouts.
How do I redirect the report output from the application server on to the client within the D2k context and then execute print commands?
Note: In this case we want to use both DMT and Laser printing. Also note that we use escape sequences to adjust reports in desired printing papers.
2) We have second set of reports which we call as document because these are printed after capturing data from 'Form' using text_io utility (please note that for these documents we are not using any Report 6i functionality)and we print it from file using printing mechanism as mentioned above. These are working well in client server application. We adopted this methodology for getting better performance (in terms of speed as database server and network traffic is not involved) of printing. But now we are converting our application for web, we are finding it difficult how to capture Form's data from browser to client's machine and then executing printing commands which are stored in our application liabrary.
If you help me out by giving some suggestions, I shall be grateful to you.

Hello
I wonder if you ever solved this problem.
I have a very similar problem with Photoshop CS5 on Mac OSX 10.6 + HP Photosmart C7180.
If I choose "Photoshop Manages Colors" the results are lousy.
If I choose "Printer Manages Colors" the results are OK. not necessarily great.
I believe I have all the correct settings after going through books and web advice (and wasted a lot of paper and ink).
As far as I can see, "ColorSync" is the internal Mac management which is the only option available with "Photoshop Manages Colors" and "Vendor Matching" appears to mean the printer vendor (ie HP) will provide the matching. Either can be selected if "Printer Manages Colors" is used. It seems the type of paper can be set in three different places. if That's all a bit academic as the results are poor regardless.
My wife suggests I buy a new printer - Epson's looking good.
Any words of wisdom would be appreciated.

How to make the print command wait until form is rendered.

This is an ongoing issue that so far I haven't been able to figure out how to fix, so I'm hoping that someone will have a good idea or work around. I'm working in LiveCycle Designer ES v8. using JavaScript.
I have to include a feature that allows the user the choice to print out a dynamic form to fill out by hand. So I've created a button that asks if this is what they want to do, if they answer "Yes", then several things are scripted to happen. All data is reset, some subforms and pages are made visible, while other subforms are hidden, and text fields are expanded. This causes the form to expand from one page to 15 pages. Then it prints using this command:
xfa.host.print(1,
"0", (xfa.host.numPages -1).toString(), 0, 1, 0, 0, 0);
The problem is that when the print dialogue box appears, the Print Range is always set to less than the total number of pages. It looks like that the print commands fires before the form has completed rendering. This isn't a big deal since the user can click to set the Print Range to "All" which will print all 15 pages. The problem is that most people don't read the dialogue box. They click "okay" and end up with their form cut off. Then I get phone calls that my form doesn't work.
Is there anyway to delay the print command until everything has finished rendering? Or set the Print Range to always go to "All"?
Thanks in advance for your help with this.

It sounds like you'd be fine if you just separated the print function from your "Yes" button. It will require a 2nd button click from the user but that would be the only inconvenience.

How do I print all of the text in a scrollable form field?

How do I print all of the text in a scrollable form field? When I print the form, the text becomes cut off based on the size of the field and displays a little plus sign in the lower right hand corner indicating more text. I want to print all of the text.

The form is HTML which means what you see in your browser window is what you will see in your print out. You can, as the form author, view the submitted data in the View Responses tab and print that out. You can also export the responses to Excel, CSV, or PDF and print that out.

How do I set up a .pdf form to save filled data without having to print the form?

How do I set up a .pdf form to save filled data without having to print the form? I have provided my clients a lifecycle .pdf form they can use to record data for unique client meetings. They want the ability to save their completed data whenever they use the form under a unique file name. I've told them the only way I know how to do this is to print the completed form as a .pdf document and then save it.
Is their a way to save the data to a unique file name without printing the filled form?
Is there a way to reset the form with blank fields after saving? or to add a clear fields button?
Thanks.

If you reader extend a pdf using livecycle reader extensions then you can save the filled in data - this is true if you are using Adobe reader to view the PDF's. If you open it in Acrobat then the functionality is already there.

How to print bullet in smart form

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement in smart form where different points of texts should come under a bullet.
Can you please tell me how to print bullet in smart form.
Note : I have to use Standard text
Thanks in advance

We can create bullets in smartforms.
For this change the editor to text editor and then
goto insert->characters->SAP Symbols and select the
symbol you want.
This may help your requirement.
You cannot see the bullets in print preview, it'll
appear only on a hard copy.
reward point if helpful.
