Insert Slider into pdf forms

I am new to building forms using Adobe and have limited programming experience. I would like to insert several sliders into a pdf form that can be used to quantify things like symptom severity or strength of agreement and have the slider output a value that corresponds to where the slider is on the scale. Any help would be much appreciated.

It's possible to approximate this type of control using a button and some more advanced scripting. I will usually include a hidden (or visible) text field to provide a means to include a value. But something that you can do yourself is use multiple radio buttons, to create a 0-10 scale for example.

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

Insert phots to PDF forms a problem in Acrobat 9.0 pro

I'm trying to figure out a way to insert image files into a PDF form. Ultimately I want to distribute this PDF form and allow the users the opportunity to insert their own picture. Unfortunately, there's no tool for this on the interface that I can find. I'm also very new to Acrobat, so that could be the reason.
The only way I was even able to do something like this was to use the watermark tool. But users of this form won't have Acrobat 9 or Pro to use to add their own picture. Is there a way to accomplish this so that users with Acrobat Readers will be able to do this?

Ted Padova has a blog on Enabling Adobe Reader Users Options for Importing Images on Forms that explains how to do this on AcrobatUsers.com at:

Cannot insert pages into PDFs after signed with a digital signature in adobe 9

Is there any workaround that allows me to insert additional pages into a SIGNED pdf?
Background:
Author of a form create a form that needs multiple signatures and pages appended and converts to PDF for signing. Person 1 signs it, and sends it to person 2. Person 2 needs to include additional documentation and inserts the pages before signing.
In the new version, I noticed that it changes the document security which may prevent the insert after you sign it. How do I disable this?

Hi Bob,
You may not like the answer, but it cannot be disabled. In previous versions, when you added a page it invalidated the signature. Starting with Acrobat 9, once the PDF file is signed you can no longer make changes that effect the content of the core PDF. The change was made to protect the integrity of the signature. You can still add comments, but (without getting too geeky) comments are not part of the core PDF like pages are, they live in a separate level. Also, you can still add form data, but like comments, what you type into a form field is not part of the core PDF.
The bottom line is, we made the change to protect the integrity of the signture, and the signature protects the integrity of the document. Thus, changes to the document are no longer allowed in signed files.

Dynamically insert data into PDF possible?

This is the scenario and I am hoping someone can advise whether it is possible.
We want to create a PDF fillable form. However there are a few fields that we want to be read only but to injected before the user downloads the PDF.
e.g.
There is a PDF form called contact details. Only registered users can download this form. So what we are trying to achieve here is when the user logs on and downloads this PDF, server side we want to inject their details into this form so that it is read only.
In the lifestyle IDE there is a XML tab where I can see it drives the PDF.
Is there like a tool of some sort where I can dynamically update the XML source and regenerate the PDF?
Thanks

Thanks sandeep for your quick reply.
My req is
Step 1:- invoke a webservice call and get the data from a website and store it into a table in xml format(CLOB column in a table)
Step 2 :- Pick the xml data from table inserted by step1 and derive all the element values from xml data usning some xml functions
2.1 go to configuration table(in this table we are storing the table name for each type of webservice call) and get the destination table name.
2.3 insert the data into destination table.
so our interface process is designed to serve for multiple interface webservice calls.it is not for a particular data.
so in future if someone else want to download some other data then they need to add the configuration data into config tables and should be able to achieve the data download into tables.
so step 1 and step 2 should be a coomon packages.
i am involved in 2nd package where pick the xml data and insert into a table(destination table form config tablke)
Thanks Ram

Inputting Chinese text into PDF form fields

Hi there,
I'm trying to input Chinese text into an interactive PDF and although the properties for the form fields are set to Hiragino Sans GB, when inputting the text is appearing in English. Any ideas how to resolve this?

Staff have been migrated from Windows XP and now have Windows 7 on their PCs. They all now have new versions of Adobe Reader
(version 11.0.06). In some cases they now cannot insert or update variable data in fields in PDF forms. They are not using online PDFs -

Add filename and path into PDF-form

Hello,
I create different PDF-forms for our company with LiveCycle Designer 8.2.1 .
Now I have to integrate the name of the form-file and its path automatically into the form. My idea is to place a text-field, I will give the type "calculated" in the value-tab of the object-palette. This Text-field should be filled with the file name and the path where it's stored in the background. I find these two values in the info-tab of the form-properties dialog-box. My questions is: How do I get these values, that I can place them via script into my text field?
Can someone give me a hint? Thanks.

To get the path ... event.target.path;
To get the file name .... event.target.documentFileName;

How to import multiple xml records into PDF form

Our organization needs to print and distribute serveral hundred PDF forms to our members. We want to populate the names and some other basic info at the top of each form so the member can fill in the rest and sign and return it. I have the one page form set up with the fields and it's connected to an xml schema data source. When I import the xml file it reads the first record and that's it - how do I get it to read all of the xml records into a copy of the form for each record in the xml data source file so we can print and discribute the forms? We are using Acrobat 9 Pro on a Windows 7 32 bit machine.
Thanks

Is this a form created with Acrobat or LiveCycle?
Acrobat would need uniquely named fields for each individual's page or pages if they are all in one file.
If you are processing one PDF file per individual, I would look at splitting the XML or FDF file into a record for each individual and them populating each individual's PDF form.
You could even use a tab delimited file and a template to populate the PDF template and then spawn a new page from the template.
With LiveCycle I would look at using a database for the variable data.

How do i import excel data base into pdf form drop down field

Hi,
I have a table of about 2500 rows and three columns that i would like to import into a drop down window on a PDF form to be self populated when item selected rather than entering the data. How can this be done?
Thanks!
Richard

Hi,
I did not know only two entries for each option item is it. I have manually entered data in the drop down an list boxes. With 2500 lines of data I was hoping there was an easier way other than manually entering the data.
I have no knowledge of Java Scripting.....
I was just wondering if there was a way from an Excel spreadsheet to import that data into a PDF form to be selectable to populate PDF fields in a form. It doesn't sound like it.
Thanks......

Is it possible to insert hyperlinks into Dev Forms Code?

Does anyone know of a way to insert hyperlinks into forms once

Why don't you use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT inside your "when-button-

Export database information into pdf forms for printing

I'm hoping that this is doable and isn't extremely hard.
I have an access database that contains customer information. From this information I would like to export it into an existing pdf form (for each individual customer) and save it for printing at a later time.
Is this possible?
Thanks for any help!!

If you are using Acrobat 8 or above, you will want to use LiveCycle Designer.
