How to enable forms extenstion for adobe reader using Acrobat SDK?

Adobe acrobat GUI tool  enables PDF forms designers to extend the use of Adobe Reader and allow the end user to save the PDF form locally using the Reader.
Is it possible to do the same kind of fuctionality at run time on the server using Acrobat SDK?.
We are creating several PDF Form on the server, is there any way we can use Acrobat SDK to enable form's extenstions programatically on the server after the PDF is created.
If Yes How? any code example?

Not using the Acrobat SDK, no.
However, Adobe sells the LiveCycle Reader Extensions Server that can be
used on a server for exactly this purpose.

  • Problem with enabling usage rights for Adobe Reader

    Hi All,
    I have designed a form using Live cycle. From Live cycle I export it as PDF. As a final step, I open the PDF by using acrobat professional to enable usage rights for Adobe Reader. As soon as I enble the rights it saves the document with a different name, which is fine. However; at the same time it also runs the postsave events from the form and removes a couple of objects. How do I avoid this? My form has very little code:
    There is a drop down field called 'LearningSolutionsAdvisor' which has the following code on PostSave event:
    NewHorizons.Page1.LearningSolutionsAdvisor::postSave - (FormCalc, client)
    LearningSolutionsAdvisor.access ="readOnly"
    There is 'Save' button which has the following code:
    NewHorizons.Page1.Save::click - (JavaScript, client)
    app.execMenuItem("SaveAs");
    NewHorizons.Page1.Save::postSave - (FormCalc, client)
    Save.presence = "invisible"
    I thank you for your help in advance.
    Regards,

    This video is very helpful as it explains exactly what I want to do:  Extend Features in Adobe Reader, to allow my readers to save their changes.  However, I do not have that option in my version of Adobe X Pro 10.1.4.  Can anyone explain to me why I don't have that option, and what an alternative would be?

    What do you mean you are "using Adobe Reader'?   Inside of a browser?  Inside of your application?  Stand-alone?
    What version of Reader?
    Is the PDF Reader-Enabled??

  • How to obtain a refund for Adobe Reader?  I should have bought Acrobat. Tony

    How to obtain a refund for Adobe Reader?  I should have bought Acrobat. Tony

    For years I could use the free Adobe to create pdfs from my scanner, but
    something happened about 4 months ago when I could no longer do that.  The
    File menu no longer had the sub-menu "create pdfs using scanner".  Oh I
    could still use my scanner (from the scanner itself) but you are limited to
    a page at a time. So if you had a 6 page document you had to send 6
    separate pdfs from the scanner to the desktop and when emailing them to
    someone you had add 6 separate attachements to the email.  Not very
    efficient compared to before when all 6 pages could be combined in one pdf.

  • Enable 3D Measuring for Adobe Reader in PDF saved by Acrobat Pro Ext plugin

    Hello,
    I'm developing a plugin for Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended to embed a 3D object in a PDF.
    I would like to enable Adobe Reader users to measure the 3D object on the saved file,
    like you can do with the menu "Advanced"->"Extend Features in Adobe Reader" in Acrobat Pro Ext.
    Is it possible to do that with the SDK without user interaction?
    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks, I read something about that LiveCycle, but I don't understand how I should use it...
    I'm developing a plugin for Adobe Acrobat and I would like to save the file with the 3D measuring enabled, without the user interaction.
    Is the LiveCycle usable within an Acrobat plugin?

  • How to check silent switches for adobe reader installation ?

    Hi All,
    We are working on one project where we have to install adobe remotely and silently on around 5K machines. I am wondering how to check all adobe reader silent installation switches.
    Any help would be great
    Thanks And Regards

    What do you mean by "check" the silent switches? Do you mean you want the documentation for enterprise deployment?
    (Worth mentioning just in case: you will need a deployment license from Adobe).

  • Flash Player for Adobe Reader and Acrobat

    Hello folks,
    We are seeing more Adobe Portfolio documents but lately our users are unable to view them with Reader / Acrobat XI.
    I applied to distribute the Flash installer using this page:
    http://www.adobe.com/products/players/flash-player-distribution.html
    I get a confirmation email but this leads me to another page with only Flash browser plugins.
    Where can I get a .MSI?  How do we deploy the FULL Flash Player in an enterprise?
    Thanks
    Rice

    Yeah!  That is the same link Adobe emailed me.  I only see useless Flash browser pluggins or maybe I am blind? 
    Adobe's help page says my Flash Active X isn't good enough (we are a Chrome shop anyhow) and since I'm a LAN admin, I need apply for the liecense to get the .msi (which I did).   It is possible their help page is wrong or I am missing something?
    Thanks

  • How to enable Forms to locate icons deployed using OC4J Instance?

    I am using Forms 9i Builder.
    I would like to create a pictured Push Button.
    I create a Push Button with Property Palette as follows:
    Iconic: Yes
    Icon Filename: bell.jpg
    I can neither see the icons on the button in the Layout Editor, nor during run-time when it is deployed on OC4J Instance.
    How can I set the icons path in Forms Builder and deplyed on OC4J?

    Hi,
    the icon name should be without the .jpg extensions. The Forms Developer environment doesn't show jpg icons in any release before 10g (9.0.4). See the documentation og 10g on how to point it to the files.
    For deployment, the default configuration for icons is .gif. You change it in the file registry.dat located in the forms90/java/registry directory
    For deploying icons in Forms, see the whitepaper "Oracle9i Forms: How to Deploy Icons" located at otn.oracle.com/products/forms --> Forms 9i Collateral. This paper is still valid for Forms 10g.

  • Form Display In Adobe Reader is Wrong

    Hi there,
    I wonder if anyone could please help?! I have a form that I have designed in livecycle and enabled in adober reader using acrobat 9 pro. When I view the form in adobe reader there are a few errors. For instance it theres one extra row added to a dynamic table and there is an extra instance of a repeatable subform. I've no idea why is is occuring. Can anyone help? 
    I'm happy to send the forms to explain. 
    Any help much appreciated. 
    Best wishes, 
    Ken

    I checked your forms, tried following on my end and it seems to be working as expected with this one little change......
    You housed section 12 in a subform named "Subform2" and set Min Count 1 under Object>>Binding tab......Now I also set "Initial Count" as "0" which seems to have fixed issue but not the good practice to follow. Try it out on your end and see if that is the case....
    However I suspect this issue is primarily caused by the way you have your layout designed....I noticed you have your form designed with few subforms as well as few open items not wrapped under subform which may be causing this issue.
