Insert/Embedding PDF documents to SAP Adobe forms

Hi all,
We have a requirement to insert/embed an external PDF documents to an SAP Adobe Form.
Please provide pointers in this regard.
Thanks,
Sandhya

I would think the common sense approach would be to upgrade to ECC 6 first then migrate your forms.
This seems to be just another step in the upgrade process.
We went from 4.7 to ECC 6, but only had Smartforms and SAPScripts. We wound up just re-creating the forms directly in Adobe.

    Tim, a change like this is really simple.
    Formcalc and javascript are pretty similar - when I started developing AIF a year ago, I knew nothing about either of them... not that I know a whole lot now...
    The Help in Livecycle designer is actually quite helpful when it comes to scripting. Also, there's a google group you can join where you can email questions for help.
    You would just call the form like you normall do. The code is placed INSIDE your form "under" your field. There is a script editor built in to Adobe - Click Pallettes -> Script Editor to see it.
    there are many events on which to place code - you will need to find an event that triggers early - such as Form:Ready etc...
    Here's an example I have with 2 radiobuttons and a text box. If my 'yes' radiobutton is chosen, I make my input box visible
    if ( yes.rawValue eq "1" ) then
    data.Page2.grp2.func.rb.ifyes.presence  = "visible"
    endif
    Same concept if my 'No' button is chosen
    if ( no.rawValue eq "2" ) then
    data.Page2.grp2.func.rb.ifyes.presence  = "hidden"
    endif
    Both of these scripts are in the "click" event of the radiobutton.
    Lastly, here's a link to a great resource on Scripting
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/livecycle/articles/lc_designer_scripting_basics/lc_designer_scripting_basics.pdf
    Scripting, on a moderate to small scale, will make your life a bit easier. Don't try to do too much, otherwise you'll find AIF may be the wrong tool for what you're trying to do.

  • IMac. Adobe Acrobat Pro 8.3.1. Since I installed Yosemite, cannot insert a pdf document into a pdf document. What's my upgrade?

    I have an iMac with Yosemite. I have Adobe Acrobat Pro van 8.3.1.
    I am unable to insert a pdf document into a  pdf document. I go to Document/Insert in the menu bar, get a spinning ball, can do nothing with the app except force-quit.
    What's my upgrade? I cannot find one. Do I have to pay full price for a version that will work?

    Your version of Acrobat is quite old and not compatible with any current OS, so problems are to be expected. It is too old to qualify for an upgrade as well, so if you want the current version (XI) then you need to purchase a new license, which you can do via the Adobe Products Page.

  • Fonts installation SAP Adobe forms

    We need to install following fonts in the SAP Adobe Forms landscape.
    Question is are the following fonts available with Adobe :
    Helvetica Neue Light (Standard/Bold/Italic)
    Superior Title Black  (Standard/Bold/Italic)
    Universe 45 Light  (Standard/Bold/Italic)
    The fonts need to be in .TTF format
    Where can I find the steps to install the fonts into SAP.

    I don't really understand what you mean by "available with Adobe".  First let's clarify the product: I'm guessing Adobe Reader, but perhaps Adobe Acrobat. (Adobe are the company, they have dozens of modules). However, it isn't clear in what way any Adobe product integrates with SAP, as opposed to displaying content generated by SAP.
    If by "available" you mean "included", NO. There are hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions, of fonts. Only fonts needed for correct operation are included. But
    1. PDF files can "embed" fonts. This is strongly recommended because then the font is not needed by the end user. Perhaps you are asking about embedding rather than displaying?
    2. Fonts are not installed "into" Adobe software; no idea about installing fonts into SAP. That's not our department. Adobe software and perhaps SAP just pick up the fonts installed in the system in the usual way.
    Many companies make fonts, and many companies sell the same fonts. You need to verify the license on the font (fonts have licenses like software) allow your intended use. If you want to distribute fonts to your end users you will need a special license indeed. You can start with Adobe's font shop: Buy, download fonts | Adobe Type

  • IWeb • How Do I Make Links in an Embedded PDF Document Open in New Page?

    On this page http://ostyn-newman.com/Gov_Downloads.html I have a PDF document that is embedded.  I tried an IFrame, but everything seemed to work better for me with the "Embed" code.  I am open to changing this if it would be better.  Here's my problem.  I can get the PDF document to display fine, but when I click on the links in the PDF document, the destination page opens in the embedded window.  I want the links to open the destination in a new window.
    I created the part of the document with most of the links (Pages 8.5 - 56) in Numbers and cut and pasted the table into a Pages document to create the completed document on our site.  I exported the docuemnt from Pages as a PDF file which is what you see.  There is also a link to download the file on the same page which works just fine.
    I have tried to insert the target="_blank" code but have not been able to get it to open the destination pages in a new window.  I am inserting the code by using the Insert/Widget/HTML Snippet Feature in IWeb.  Here is the code I am using.
    <embed src=
    "http://ostyn-newman.com/Media/GS27F0026XTextfile.pdf"
    style="width:850px; height:1000px;
    border-width:0px;
    border-color:#FFCC66;
    border-style:solid;"
    scrolling="auto" >
    </embed>
    I am not a coder and have just used Google to find the code to cut and paste and have played around with it to get to the place I am.  If anybody can tweak the code I have or offer some totally new code for me to insert that will get this to work would be greatly appreciated.
    Please keep in mind that most of the people who visit and use this page are government employees and are almost exclusivey using Explorer. 

    Thank you Jeff,
    I tried your original suggestion and now my inserted html widget reads
    <embed src=
    "http://ostyn-newman.com/Media/GS27F0026XTextfile.pdf"
    style="width:850px; height:1000px;
    border-width:0px;
    border-color:#FFCC66;
    border-style:solid;"
    scrolling="auto" target="_blank">
    </embed>
    It is live on my site.  You can see that the embedded document still opens the destination links in the embedded window.
    As for your other two suggestions, thank you as well.  I am aware of those techniques and did not use them because that is not how I want the other PDF links on the page to behave.  The catalog and autocad blocks downloads in the box at the top should simply download (or behave however the client's browser is configured to handle downloaded PDF documents or zip files.)  I don't intend to force those to open a new window.  I could also have our client click on a link to the PDF document and open it in a new page (like in your second suggestion) but I was hoping to embed the PDF and have it automatically viewable on our Download • Terms • Prices Page with all of the PDF search functions intact as well as the links be active.  My only complaint at this point is that the links in the embedded PDF document open the destination page in the embed window instead of a new window.  I only want to force a new window because the destination window doesn't behave properly when it opens in my embed window and it is difficult to figure out how to go back to the my PDF document when a destination window gets opened in the embed window.  The code you sent didn't do the trick.  Or maybe I didn't get it exactly right.  That is why I included it above.  Thanks for trying though.  I appreciate the effort.
    I would be willing to bypass the imbed/iFrame route altogether if I could just somehow drop the Pages document into the IWeb page and retain the search and link features, but I've not been able to figure out how to do that.  When I was exploring how to directly drop a Pages document into an IWeb page is when I stumbled on the method of embedding a PDF document into an IWeb page to retain the important search and link features.

  • Can I open embedded PDF documents in a PDF file on an iPad or Android?

    Not sure if first post got through, the forum required me to change password ...
    So I'm trying to open embedded PDF documents in a "parent" PDF document on an iPad. 
    On a PC the file opens fine.
    On an iPad 2 with Adobe's Reader the same file says it's corrupted.
    On PDF Pro the file opens, I can see the listing of embedded PDF documents but when I click on them nothing happens.
    Is there a way for a PDF file with embedded hyperlinked PDF documents to be displayed on an iPad or Android?

    pages on the iOS has access only to the camera roll to embedd pictures , but no external files.
    Content from other documents like pdf can be copied and pasted by using Adobe Reader for iOS or the iBooks.app, open the pdf , copy text , then go to pages.app and paste text into the document there.

  • Vb script to get fields name of SAP adobe forms

    hi
    is there any way to get and set fields of SAP adobe forms embedded in SAP portal

    I think when I tried to process each PC name from text file against registry key value, above code not working. As per my knowledge some issue in loop. Do I need to add FOR EACH feature? 
    Please help to correct it. Thanks in advance.
    Your code contains numerous errors. Furthermore you make things difficult for yourself by giving similar names to the objects used for your input and output. If you are a systems administrator then your best bet is to make an effort to learn the language
    instead of grabbing a few code fragments from here and there and hoping that somehow they will work.
    Try the cleaned up code below for this particular project. Note the consistent code indentation. It helps you enormously when trying to understand the structure of the code. Remember also that you must fully qualify all file paths. Writing to "Destination.txt"
    will cause endless confusion because you never know for sure where this file will reside.
     Const HKEY_CURRENT_USER = &H80000001
     Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
     sKeyPath = "Environment"
     sValueName = "LSFORCEHOST"
     sFile = "D:\Test.txt"
     If oFSO.FileExists(sFile) Then
       Set oInput = oFSO.OpenTextFile(sFile, 1)
       Do While Not oInput.AtEndOfStream
         sComputer = oInput.ReadLine
         If Trim(sComputer) <> "" Then
           Set oReg=GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" _
             & sComputer & "\root\default:StdRegProv")
           oReg.GetStringValue HKEY_CURRENT_USER,sKeyPath,sValueName,sValue
           Set oOutput = oFSO.OpenTextFile("D:\destination.txt",8, True)
           oOutput.WriteLine sValue
           oOutput.Close
        End If
      Loop
      oInput.Close
    End If

  • Standard SAP Adobe Forms

    Hi All,
      I am new to SAP Adobe Forms and have a quick question.
      I need to create the output for order confirmation and invoice in Adobe Form. Does SAP provide any

      can help me with the names for these.
    Thanks a lot,

  • QR Codes using SAP Adobe forms

    Hi,
    We are printing QR code labels using SAP Adobe forms and using Zebra printers (Z4MPLUS, ZM400 ) for this. Size of the QR code that is being printed is small and we want that to be printed bigger than current size.
    Could anyone help us on how to increase the QR code size? We have tried changing the module height and width in XML Source, but no luck.

    Hi,
    Does anyone have a solution for this ?
    We have the same issue on ZM400 and GX430 Zebra labelprinters.
    The QR barcode is printed very small on the label.
    We changed ModuleHeight en ModuleWidth in de adobe xml source.
    We changed the QRCode en CodeQR to "software" support in both XDC files : zpl203.xdc and zpl300.xdc.
    However after changing the XDC file from "hardware" to "software" support, the QR barcode is not printed on the label.
    Any suggestions ?
    The QR code is displayed correctly in de Adobe LiveCycle Designer (with the correct size).
    Thanks in advance.

  • How to create Hiperlink in SAP Adobe Forms

    Hi Experts,
    Can somebody assist me on how to create a hiperlink in SAP Adobe forms. At the footer we will display some text message like "........ for further enquires please visit out home page". When user double click on "home page" it should take him to to website of that particular organization. If possible to explain via screen shots then it will be a great help to me.
    I know you can use "Button" option to call a link ( go to layout->Palettes->Library->Button) in Adobe form. I don't know where to specify website name(www.google.com).
    Note: we can do it through binding but sitename is displaying in form (sitename should not appear in the form).
