How to auto-fill data into scanned paper form converted to Acrobat 9 PDF

Hello,
I am new to Adobe Acrobat Pro 9. I have scanned a paper form/document that originally had various data lines to be written on using an ink pen. I saved the scanned PDF as an Acrobat 9 PDF. I have added various pertinent text fields and checkboxs to PDF form and saved it with appropriate extended setting to allow end-user to type on PDF and save a copy. At the bottom form there is a name/signature text field for end-user name to be typed and a calendar text date when name/signature text field is entered .
I need to send this PDF form to various end-users using (Groupwise/Novell) email to have them sign or type their name and date at bottom of form. Is there a way that Adobe Acrobat 9/PDF will recognize the email sender and allow the name/signature field to automatically fill-in signature/name textbox. Are there tools like javascript, etc. that will help me accomplish this task?
I don't know where to begin. I am a newbie. Please help!

How to: Create a master form that auto-fills data into other pdf forms?

I hope someone can please help me. I have about 15 PDF forms that all require similar data entry (name, address etc). Can I create a master form that we fill in once per client, and then auto-fill in the matching data on the 15 forms?
I am not looking for an online solution as the information is highly sensitive.
I have already created a form in Acrobat X Pro with the 'master data', and created the (15) forms with identically named fields. How I link the forms now to the master, I cannot figure out (after much searching).
I have read similar questions on the same topic but have not found any answers. I hope this time someone can please help.
Many thanks in advance.

Thank you! I had just figured out how to export the data from the master as an FDF file and then import it to the other files. I'm afraid I don't understand scripting to automate the process across multiple files. To you mean with java script?
I've also thought about combining the forms, once we know which ones the particular client will need. I have to see how it works in practice for my colleagues who will be using them.
Thank you again.

Fill data into a form programmatically and print the form afterwards

Folks,
until recently a lab assistant took measurements and filled the data into a paper form (see attached pdf). Now we are building a test stand that does the measurement semiautomatically. The software of the test stand will be programmed in LabVIEW, of course. The test stand shall generate a printed protocol very similar to the attached pdf in future as well.
What's the best way to fill the acquired data into the form and to print the form afterwards? The form can be read by our code in either pdf or html. There is no Microsoft Office installed on the computer.
Modifying the html code? Converting the pdf to a picture and fill the data into the picture? Any hint will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Peter

Hmmm... must have misunderstood what you were saying.
XSL is a language that allows you to generate an HTML document. The XSL basically defines the style, and the XML specifies the data. HTML is the combination. You can find out more here.
Unfortunately, since you don't have Office, you won't be able to use the ActiveX interface to control Word, so that's out.
With the template in HTML format you could use the DOM for an HTML file to set the value of the HTML elements. The easiest way to do this is to use IE (I'm assuming you're on Windows here) to open the HTML template and then you can use the DOM from there. As for how feasible this is, it would depend on your HTML format. Can you post the template in HTML format?
With the template in PDF format I know that some PDF files that are forms can be generated in such a way that they still act like forms when you open them in, say, Acrobat Reader. Acrobat has an ActiveX interface so you should be able to programmatically do this, but I can't say for sure. You can check the Adobe site for more info. You just need to make sure it doesn't require the full version of Acrobat.

How to export image data into XDP

Hi, All
I'm working on a healthcare project that needs to export the doctor's signature image into XDP file from the database to fill in the Insurance company claim form. My question is how to export image data into a field node in the XDP file, we know the name of the image field which defined in the PDF form, Is it something like:
the signature image data ?
Should the image data in this node be base64 encoded or text encoded or something else?
Can the image be any kind? e.g. BMP, PNG, JPEG, ..., etc?
Thanks
William

Hi Andre,
Document will be of ASCII characters right?? but image data will be in binary format. as per database concept it is stored as binary large object. But in datawarehousing the back end is also going to be some database such as Oracle or other DBs.
which can take blob's. so it would be possible to store the binary data.
If any one has faced this situation can reply.to this ques.
can post the step to load image(jpg/bmp or any image format) data in to info cube??
hi andre if u have done loading image data as you say.pls reply me if you have the steps with you.
thanks Andre

Step- by- Step on How to Load Excel data into Crystal Reports?

Hi Friends,
Can anyone send me a Step- by- Step on How to Load Excel data into Crystal Reports? Pls help me. Thanks in Advance.
Vijay

It's also important to 'prep' the excel file prior to connecting to it.
Give the data tab a meaningful name
Make sure the column headers are unique and that every column has a header
Delete any blank tabs
If you have trouble with Excel changing the data type of a field (say, a social security number you want to be a string value rather than a number so you don't lose leading zero) an alternative would be to save the spreadsheet file as a CSV, create a schema.ini to specify the data types for each column (example below) and use the same steps to connect except instead of choosing Excel 8.0, scroll to the bottom and choose Text. You have to make sure the CSV file is in the same folder as the schema.ini file that defines the columns.
Schema.ini example:
200912PUSD.csv
ColNameHeader=True
Format=CSVDelimited
MaxScanRows=25
CharacterSet=OEM
Col1=SSN Char Width 9
Col2=LAST_NM Char Width 25
Col3=FIRST_NM Char Width 25
Col4=DOB Date
Col5=STDNT_ID Char Width 10
Col6=SORTKEY Char Width 10
Col7=SCHOOL_NM Char Width 30
Col8=OTHER_ID Integer
Col9=GRADE Char Width 2
The filename in the first line needs to have the [] brackets around it, but I couldn't get it to display in this forum correctly.

How do I load data into my palm??

Hi
I was wondering how I can get new data for my database into my palm. I've got a text-database and I want to try to get it in the Palm and make a program for it.
So my problem is: How can I get data into the mobile device without typing it myself.

Take a look at http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=76&thread=266095 to see a suggestion for a way of creating RMS's on the PC. You could use this to convert your textfile to RMS format.

Proxy creation/ access key in the how to guide "push data into BW from XI"

Hi !
I'm experiencing troubles with a step of the how to guide "push Data into BW from XI".
When i want to create the proxy in the BW system (step 10), i'm asked for an access key for the object R3TR CLAS CL_<name of the prefix>_<name of message interface>
I think that access keys are needed when an object has to be modified. Do I really have to modify this SAP object ? I don't really feel like destroying the whole system...
Thanks in advance !

Hi Benjamin,
you are not destroying anything in the system. Since you generating a class for the implementation of the proxy within the SAP name space, you are asked for the access key (you can register developers and objects via the OSS).
The system behavior depends on the setting of the system, whether changes are are recorded, etc..
Ask your basis administrator, who should be able to assist you.
Cheers
Andreas

The fastest way is to use external tables or sql loader (sqlldr). (If you use external tables or sql loader, you don't use C# at all).

How to load oracle data into SQL SERVER 2000?

how to load oracle data into SQL SERVER 2000.
IS THERE ANY UTILITY AVAILABLE?

Not a concern for an Oracle forum.
Als no need for SHOUTING.
Conventional solutions are
- dump the data to a csv file and load it in Mickeysoft SQL server
- use Oracle Heterogeneous services
- use Mickeysoft DTS
Whatever you prefer.

Note that i can have more than 1 machines (meaning that i have to loop thru the file to be able to write to the DB)
Cal u tellme what to do!
Even better- do u have a piece of code that will help me understand and implement the database writing portion?
I badly need help here.
