Insert editable picture into PDF form?

Good day,
I am creating editable marketing flyers for a client. I'm opening my PDF (originally created in Illustrator) in Acrobat and adding editable form feilds for the end user to add their contact information to each piece. The enduser also wants to add a photo with their contact info. Is there a way to create this as part of the form? Ultimately, I'm wanting them to be able to insert a picture into a specified area and not have to resize the photo. Is this possible in Acrobat professional?
Any information would be greatly appreciated! I'm working in CS3 and Acrobat 8, on a mac.
Cheers,
Lilly

This post has been invaluable for me! Thanks for everyone input. I have used the event.target.buttonImportIcon(); javascript to create PDF's the user can import, and it works great. However I now have on last challenge and I am hoping someone on this forum can help out with. Is there anyway (with a little javascript on the button) to have the image the user uploads flip upside down? I have a document that needs to be folded in half, and it would be perfect if I could have the user upload the image to both buttons, but have one button flip the image upside down. I know I could have the user do that image flipping and re-saving on their own, but I am trying to simplify things. Any ideas here would be helpful.
Thanks!

Insert 3D model into pdf form

Hope someone can help
Got acrobat3D on trial and it looks great
One thing i have tried to do is to create a template and then insert a 3d model into the template. However when I go to tools/advanced editing the 3d option is greyed out. I have tried changing the properties of the field in the form but cannot get to work
Help anyone?

It's correct that you don't have a 3D object you can use in LiveCycle Designer to specify where you want to place the 3D object.
The "trick" to insert a 3D object in a LiveCycle Designer form/template is to first create a PDF with a 3D object using Acrobat 3D or PDFMaker (from Office documents) and then to open that PDF in LiveCycle Designer to add form fields.
If you want to start from a blank document, launch Acrobat 3D and go to "File->Create PDF->From Blank Page" and then use the 3D Tool to place your 3D object anywhere on the page. You can always replace and reposition the 3D object in Acrobat 3D after you have edited the PDF in LiveCycle Designer to add any form fields.

Acrobat form field that allows Reader user to browse and insert a picture into a predefined area

Is there a way to do insert a form field into an AcroForm that allow Reader users to browse and insert a picture into that form field?
I know that LiveCycle can do this, but I need to do this using an AcroForm. Or maybe there's a third-party plug-in that can be used in an AcroForm to do this?

Jay,
The new version of Reader, which was announced today (see AcrobatUsers.com), will now allow you to use the field.buttonImportIcon method: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.737.html
For a bit more information, see: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/743823
Here's the minimum code that can be used in the Mouse Up event of a button that's configured with a layout that's something other than "Label only":
// Mouse Up script for a button
event.target.buttonImportIcon();
Since this isn't backwards compatible with Reader, you'll probably want to add additional code to test what version is being used and alert the user if it's pre-11. You should also check the return value to see if anything went wrong. The hard part is getting everyone to upgrade, but this and a number of other features should make it worth it.

Help inserting a filled out pdf form into a pdf report.

Why can I not insert a filled out pdf form into my pdf reports? I am new to Adobe Acrobat X.

See what it says under: File > Properties > Description > PDF Producer
If it's an XFA form, is should say something like "Adobe LiveCycle Designer [version#]"
You can also open the interactive JavaScript console (Ctrl+J) and enter the following line of code:
xfa
and with the cursor on the line, hit Ctrl+Enter, of the Enter key on the numeric keypad.
If it's an XFA form it will return:
[object XFAObject]
Otherwise, it will return "xfa is not defined" and other stuff.

Load data in xml file into Pdf form created by LiveCycle Designer

I want to load data in xml file into Pdf form when Pdf opened and Form field will be filled with data from xml file .I try to use $host.importdata("filename.xml"); But i could not find suitable place to run my code. Can anyone give me some advice? thank you.

Hi,
extract your xml and then you can use insert all clause.
here's very small example on 10.2.0.1.0
SQL> create table table1(id number,val varchar2(10));
Table created.
SQL> create table table2(id number,val varchar2(10));
Table created.
SQL> insert all
2 into table1 values(id,val)
3 into table2 values(id2,val2)
4 select extractValue(x.col,'/a/id1') id
5        ,extractValue(x.col,'/a/value') val
6        ,extractValue(x.col,'/a/value2') val2
7        ,extractValue(x.col,'/a/id2') id2
8 from (select xmltype('<a><id1>1</id1><value>a</value><id2>2</id2><value2>b</value2></a>') col from dual) x;
2 rows created.
SQL> select * from table1;
        ID VAL
         1 a
SQL> select * from table2;
        ID VAL
         2 b                                                                    Ants

How do you insert a picture into another picture?

How do you insert a picture into another picture. For example, one person is missing from family photo & I'd like to insert that person's face.

By using an external editor:
In order of price here are some suggestions:
Seashore (free)
The Gimp (free)
Graphic Coverter ($45 approx)
Acorn ($50 approx)
Pixelmator ($50 approx)
Photoshop Elements ($75 approx)
There are many, many other options. Search on MacUpdate. You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

Use of XMP Custom Panel to automate insertion of metadata into PDF file.

I'm new to the world of XMP so please bear with me.
I'm exploring ways of automating the insertion of metadata into PDF files, either at the time of creation, or through a batch process. The metadata values for a given set of documents would be static, so these could be "hard coded" into the mechanism use to insert the metadata.
Would an XMP Custom Panel be something I could use to achieve this goal. If so, can you please provide some details on how to go about doing this.
Thanks in advance.
Louis

Were you able to find a solution to this problem? I am having the same issue.

Converting pictures into PDF files

How do I convert pictures into PDF files, is this possible?

If you want to use acrobat reader, you have to pay for it.
So, I use other free or cheap apps to do so =>
* powerpdf
* dragonprinter (draakprinter in dutch)
* writepdf
* scanapp (to convert parts of a picture)
I even think that almost every scan-app can convert pictures into pdf's.

How do I insert an image into a Form

I want to insert an image into a form. This field will change each time I start a new form. I'm creating an invoice for a customer and they want to insert an image of the house they are working on. Each time they start a new job, they need a new invoice, needing a new image. Can the client inset a jpeg that they have on their computer? Please help!!

If they have a full version of Acrobat, then you could set up a button field from the Forms menu and set it to accept an icon only. They would need to have some knowledge of Acrobat but it could be done.
