How to specify the saving path pdf by a "saveas" button in Javascript?

Hello,
Firstly, I use LiveCycle ES3 designer on PC. I created a form with a button executing a Java script that opens a dialog box "save as ..." like this:
\ \ Script save-as \ \
app.execMenuItem ("SaveAs");
I would like to predefine a file path to open the dialog box that opens by default on the current location of the file "C: \ export \" for example.
Could someone help me telling me the code and nomenclature to be used for this?
I know Livecycle use XFA language and can use the "myDoc.saveAs ();" but I do not know how :-/
I found this post in this forum but I don't understand how to use this code directly with a click event on a button
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/685920
There is also a tutorial here but I can not seem to apply
http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/how-save-pdf-acrobat-javascript
Thank you in advance for your help :-)

Try putting this script in the click event of the button
Hidden_Text_Field_Path.rawValue=this.somExpression;
This ought to work using either FormCalc or JavaScript.  I'm not sure from your description whether you will need to use the full path name for the hidden text field or use a relative one, but that's not too hard to deal with.

    for example, ms word executable file is winword.exe, but in java i am using the following command:

    1) You could ask the user to tell you where it's at (and remember for next time)

  • Numbers to CSV export script: how to specify the encoding?

    Hi,
    I'm using the following script to export a Numbers document to CSV:
    # Command-line tool to convert an iWork '09 Numbers
    # document to CSV.
    # Parameters:
    # - input: Numbers input file
    # - output: CSV output file
    # Attik System, Philippe Lang
    # Creation date: 31 mai 2012
    # Modification date:
    on run argv
      # We retreive the path of the script
              set myPath to (path to me)
              tell application "Finder" to set myFolder to folder of myPath
      # We get the command line parameters
              set input_file to item 1 of argv
              set output_file to item 2 of argv
      # We retreive the extension of the file
              set theInfo to (info for (input_file))
              set extname to name extension of (theInfo)
      # Paths
              set input_file_path to (myFolder as text) & input_file
              set output_file_path to (myFolder as text) & output_file
              if extname is equal to "numbers" then
        tell application "Numbers"

          close every window saving no
        end tell
              end if
    end run
    It works fine, except that I don't know how to specify the encoding of the text in the CSV file (Latin1, MacRoman, Unicode). This option is available in the export dialog of Numbers. Any hint on how to do that is welcome. (GUI Scripting?)
    Where can I find documentation on the iWork "vocabulary" available? Is there a definitive documentation somewhere? I tried to record an manual export in the script editor, without success. Script is more or less empty.
    Thanks!
    Philippe Lang

    A further note from Yvan. He's made some revisions to the script sent earlier.
    --{code}
    --[SCRIPT export to CSV with selected encoding]
    I added some features.
    (1) Defining the encoding thru the preferences file apply only if
    the application is not in use because the file is read only once in a session.
    A test urge you to quit Numbers if it is running.
    (2) info for is deprecated so it may be removed by Apple tomorrow.
    I no longer use it.
    (3) just for the fun, I added a piece of code allowing you to select the encoding on the fly.
    Thanks to the property chooseEncodingInScript, at this time the script use Unicode (UTF-8)
    (4) I'm wondering which tool is used to launch this script,
    I don't know the way to pass arguments when I run one.

  • 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.

  • Sun ONE Studio 4 aka Forte: How to set the output path for classes ?

    Help !
    Beginner's question:
    Sun ONE Studio 4 aka Forte:
    How to set the output path for classes ?
    As default, the class files are created in the same directory as the
    sources.
    In opposite, both JBuilder and Together support that there is a tree
    with the sources and another tree with the classes.
    The first answer I got was "not possible with Forte, but just if you write your own "ANT Build script" !
    a) Please point me to a ready-to-use ANT script for this purpose, if such is available
    b) Is using ANT instead of the MAKE as comfortable ? Besides the separation of sourcecode and classes, I would like to keep everything else to be the same, i.e. I don�t want to edit the ANT file if I enlarge the project by directories or files.
    Tia
    Sincerely
    Rolf

    You can set S1S's options to place newly created .class files in a specific location.
    Identify the compiler that is being used - Open the S1S's Tools/Options window, expand Editing and select Java Sources. Note the Default Compiler value. (If it's one if the Ant options, you use Ant to specify this option, not S1S.)
    Open the S1S's Tools/Options window, expand Building/Compiler Types and select the appropriate compiler.
    The Properties tab of the compiler has the property Target, which sets the filesystem where the compiler output is directed. If you choose <not set>, the .class files are written to their source directory.
    When you set the Target, your change affects all classes that use this compiler.
    Very few options can't be set in S1S; the challenge is finding out where they're set!

  • Please help how to save a movieclip in flash to svg...and how to retrive the saved svg to movieclip in flash?

    hi all
    please help how to save a movieclip in flash to svg...and how
    to retrive the saved svg to movieclip in flash?
    thanks

    Do you mean from flash in a web page or do you mean
    converting the swf file format (maybe with a decompiler or
    whatever).
    If you're meaning to do it from flash in a web page:
    You can't save a movieclip from flash to svg. You could
    perhaps record drawingAPI commands and create the appropriate svg
    output in an internal xml object which you then send to the server.
    But I don't know of any pre-built classes to do that (disclaimer:
    because I don't know of any doesn't mean they don't exist).
    Going from svg to flash is doing it the other way around.
    Converting the svg paths back to actionscript drawing commands. I
    think I've seen some examples of this online somewhere.

  • How to get the file path in adf application

    hii all,
    i have a txt file that i am using in my adf application,
    i am passing this txt file through a File Reader, for which i have to mention the file path.
    The file is in web-content and when i am hard coding the complete file path i.e C:/JDeveloper/myApp/ViewController/public_html/log.txt
    the application is working fine when run on integrated weblogic server.
    My requirement is to access this file without giving the static file path, as in case i have to use this application on any other machine..
    for that how to mention the file path-
    i tried using FacesContext to get the context path :-
    FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRequestContextPath();
    which gives me
    \myApp-ViewController-context-root
    after appending public_html\log.txt
    I am using the following path to access the file :-
    \myApp-ViewController-context-root\public_html\log.txt
    again i am getting the java.io.FileNotFoundException
    Does anyone know how to use file from inside the web-content without giving the complete path..???
    Thanks

    Hi,
    If you put your file under public_html folder, you can use this code to access the file:
    For example file is : log.txt
    FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRealPath('/log.txt').toString().trim();
    Thanks.

  • How to get the current path of my application in java ?

    how to get the current path of my application in java ?
    thanks

    To get the path where your application has been installed you have to do the following:
    have a class called "what_ever" in the folder.
    then you do a litte:
    String path=
    what_ever.class.getRessource("what_ever.class").toString()
    That get you a string like:
    file:/C:/Program Files/Cool_program/what_ever.class
    Then you process the result a little to remove anything you don't want:
    path=path.substring(path.indexOf('/')+1),path.lastIndexOf('/'))
    //Might be a little error here but you should find out //quickly if it's the case
    And here you go, you have a nice
    C:/Program Files/Cool_program
    which is the path to your application.

    HOW to delete the saved score in a game downloaded from the app store to restart the game from the begining with fresh scores.
    i am unable to do so. please help

    In system preferences, create a new account again, using the short name of the "deleted" account. You may be prompted to re-use the old home folder. Log out and log in to test it worked. Then log in as your new admin, and do the delete process again. Don't choose to securely delete this time - just a regular delete.
    When you have time to spare, go to Disk Utility, and use the Erase tab to securely erase free space on the drive. This will accomplish the same thing that your originally tried to do. Use the fastest method - anything more secure is a waste of time. You may need to run it overnight - it can take several hours.
