How to use Adobe LiveCycle Forms Standard / Pro to leverage features in Adobe Reader

Can someone please tell me how to use the Adobe LiveCycle Forms Standard or Pro module to leverage features in Adobe Reader? Do you also need to have the Reader Extensions Module?
The forms data sheet says that it is possible to leverage features in Adobe Reader but does not go on to detail how.

Depends on your deployment pattern.  You can just use Reader Extensions if you're publishing forms on a site, if you need to prefill or perform other processing on the template then LiveCycle Forms is needed.  If you want to render to HTML5 for tablet support then Forms Pro is needed.

  • Standards or Best Practices on limits to Adobe LiveCycle forms as data input tools?

    We are trying to determine whether we should be using Adobe LiveCycle forms for our user input pages, or use a web input form (jsf) that is part of the application server. The data captured would then be rendered in multiple output forms. (printing, etc) We've proofed that it can be done, but our experience so far is that to achieve the complex business rules, validations and calculations, there is a lot of javascript code to write. Has there been any industry assessment or best practices on determining when it is best to use a web form vs Adobe Livecycle form for capturing user input? especially when there is a lot of strict validation and business rule, backend data calls, etc?   Our input requirements also differ significantly from our output requirements- where we will definitely be using LiveCycle forms.

    It sounds like you need use the adobe schema in MII so the output of your transaction matches it.

  • IBM workplace forms to Adobe LiveCycle forms

    Hi
    I have been using IBM Workplace forms in my application for a long time and now want to migrate to adobe livecycle forms. Please can anyone tell me about how much similar are both? What all should i look out for while migrating. ?
    Regards
    Ullas

    We are also looking into a similar type of project. I'm not well versed in the IBM software, but I suspect there is no utlity or conversion tool to automate some of the transition work. (ie creating fields and other common objects)
    We are looking at re-desinging the forms from scratch.

  • Adobe LiveCycle Form Not Saving Data

    I have designed dozens of Adobe LiveCycle forms and have extended rights (enable usage rights in adobe reader).  My problem is that sometimes the form is not saving the data for end users.  One of my end users even updated Adobe Reader, but still nothing is working and he is becoming increasingly frustrated.  Any other suggestions.

    Make sure all your fields have a binding set even if it is just their name.
    For instance, click on a field that isn't saving, in the Object palette, under the Binding tab make sure the Data Binding is set to Use Name.
    Hope that helps.

  • Adobe LiveCycle Forms Versus Adobe Document Services

    I've read in the "Best Practices for Improving Performance in Dynamic PDF Forms" that Adobe LiveCycle Forms can explicitly off-load the job of rendering a form onto Adobe Reader.
    My question is, "Can Adobe Document Services do the same?" ADS is for users working in a SAP environment but it's suppose to have the same functionality as "Adobe LiveCycle Forms", so I'm hoping we'll be able to do this.

    Well, I know it's possible, but I have no idea how you would do it in that environment. You may want to speak to your SAP support guys for that.

  • Adobe LiveCycle Forms not opening in Chrome.

    Adobe LiveCycle Forms not opening in Chrome.
    Today, I noticed that if the PDF from is opened from Chrome when it is rendered from an IIS server using the following methoed:
    Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.adobe.xdp+xml"
    Response.WriteFile(""...file-path-name...")
    Just Yesterday morning it was working fine.
    If I open the PDF over a direct link to the PDF file, it will open fine.
    I reported this problem from Chrome using "Report Issue". I hope someone can help me to solve this problem.
    Note: I have disabled the built-in PDF Viewer, and Enabled the Aodbe Reader Plugin in Chrome long time ago. I also reset the Chrome Browser, and still not working
    Tarek.

    UPDATE:
    This is a reported issue in latest Chrome Update:
    https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=333449
    This is an update to give more details.
    Following is the environment I use:
    Chrome Version (type about:version into your omnibox): 32.0.1700.76
    Adobe Reader: XI
    Adobe Acrobat 9.5
    Operating System (Windows 7/8/Vista/XP, Mac, Linux, Android, iOS): Windows 7
    Extensions (type Chrome:extensions into your omnibox): SnappySnippet 0.4
      - Adobe Reader Plugin is enabled.
      - Native PDF Viewer is disabled.
      - All other extensions are disabled.
    Note: I am rewriting the problem discription to clarify.
    Few days ago, I noticed that if the PDF form will not be rendered properly, if it is opened from Chrome over ASP.NET Website, and when it will be rendered from an IIS server using the following method:
       Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.adobe.xdp+xml"
       Response.WriteFile("...file-path-name...")
    I am 100% sure it was working fine before. Also, it is working fine from IE 10 and Latest FireFox version.
    If I open the PDF over a direct link to the PDF file, it will open fine.
    Note: I have disabled the built-in PDF Viewer, and Enabled the Adobe Reader Plugin in Chrome long time ago. I also reset the Chrome Browser, and still not working.
    When I navigate to the link using Chrome to render the PDF Form, I can see that Adobe is trying to open the PDF Form, and then I get a black Window.
    Sometimes the PDF form will open in the following cases:
    1. After waiting for several minutes
    2. When I detach the browser tab from main browser window
    3. When I resize the Window or Minimize/Maximize it
    I have no problem whatsoever when I use IE or FireFox.
    See attached snapshots for more details.
    Appreciate your help.

  • How to use sys_context in form

    i would like to need info about
    how to use sys_context in form
    for getting value in variable

    I don't know what you mean by "terminal name". If you want to get the user's IP address, you can create a stored function (or create a package, and include the function there), that returns the USERENV sys_context variable. Here is how you create a function on the database:Create or replace Function IP_Address return varchar2 is begin
      Return sys_context('USERENV','IP_ADDRESS');
    End;
    /Now, you can use the function from a SQL select, another procedure, or a form. Here are several examples:
