Inserting links in a form

Can I insert [hyper]links into a form to be deployed as a PDF dopcument? I'd like to allow respondents to navigate around the form.

Hi,
Not in the FormsCentral authoring environment. After you generate the PDF using FormsCentral, it's possible to use Adobe Acrobat to add the navigation links. Please read the following FAQ before you try to edit the PDF in Acrobat:

Inserting a link in Adobe forms central?

How do I insert an internet link on a Form in adobe forms central?

The "insert/edit link" button is on the top menu bar, between the paragraph alignment buttons and the "Form Setup" button. If it's greyed out you'll need to insert a question or formatted text field.

Sharepoint 2010 add/edit form: Insert link from sharepoint disabled

Hello!
I have a list with enhanced rich textbox field. I can click on Insert link, "from addres" is enabled, but "from Sharepoint" is disabled.
Is there a reason why is this button disabled? Field is enhanced rich textbox... Paste button is also disabled.
Thanks

Microsoft says
it is an issue but you can check
design this strange behavior on other occasions:
If we have a Web page in the root
of the site and insert a Web Part content "from SharePoint" will
disabled, but if this same Web Part Page
is in a library "from SharePoint"
is enabled What is the difference? I do not know.
Worse. If we insert the Web Part
to a page in the root of the site is
a list or library that has a link produced by a
workflow, an error as seen in
http://www.danielroot.info/2010_07_01_archive.html
But the link works correctly if the
page is within a library.
Are these design issues also?

Getting my report portlet, to link to my form portlet

I am attempting to put together a portal page that has the
following components:
A- Form Portlet with a Pull Down that links to a
B- Report Portlet built by a SQL Statement that links to a
C- Form Portlet that acts like a Property Sheet from the Report
A drives B that drives C, all within the same page, using page
refreshes, to show the linkage after clicks.
I have been able to put this together because, I have used the
explanation found in the Advanced Portal Presentation put
together by Kenneth Atkins, that can be found at
http://www.arrowsent.com.
It provides a really good explanation on how to link portal
components(forms, reports, etc) using the pdk.
I have attempted to use what he has put together, and in general,
it is all working, as he has explained in your ppt, except the
very last bit. Where B refreshes C
That is, my pull down form refreshes the report, just fine.
and then when I click on my "item" in the report, to refresh my
detail form, it does that, but what it brings, up is the item, I
clicked on previously. It's like the "C" Component wants to show
the previously selected item, rather than the current one.
I am using Portal 3.0.9, on 8.1.7, and this behaviour is
consistent on both Solaris and Win2000
I have included the PL/SQL code that is inserted in "Before page
processing section" of the "C" form.
My guess is, that I have syntax wrong in either the do_event line
or I am not setting the rowid for the auto_query to work
properly.

Database link works for form but not report

I have created a database link to the scott.emp table in a remote database then created a local synonym in my Portal.
I then created a Form and a Report referencing the local synonym. The for works and allows me to insert record but the form does not. The report compiles fine but I get a message that Portal can't find the underlying table. It seems that if the form works then the report should too. Does anyone have a recommended solution?
Thank you.

There is a bug filed for this issue. And it should be taken up for fixing most probably in next release.

How to Link Published Outlook form in an email?

I created a Service Request feedback form in Outlook 2010 and got it published in Organization Forms Librar. Now anyone in the organization can open th form from the regular way of Choose Forms and selecting this form. My requirement is to have a link of
this form inserted in an automated email.
Scenario: This form is going to be used by users in case their service request is not resolved upto their satisfaction level. We use a ticketing tool in which when the user ticket is closed, user gets an automated email stating that their
ticket is closed. We want to have a link to the form in this automated email which should open the form stored in the Organization forms library so that thy can fill their feedback and send the form to a common mailbox. The form is working fine when used
directly. We are not getting a way how to put a link to the form in the email.
Can you please guide how can we have the link to form inserted in email? We tried to Run the option
Outlook.exe /c "IPM.Note.Service Request Feedback Form and this works fine but is there a way to put this above line of code (in bold) in email so that user can click on it and it opens the form directly for them. Hyperlink etc does not
work.

No, you can't as the <a> tag in the HTML specification doesn't account for command like switches.
Another way to go would be to use a web based form on your intranet/extranet which they can fill out and generates an email or database record with the feedback of that user.

robohelp 9 Insert link to go to the top of page

Hi all,
I intend to insert a link called "To the top" at some places in each topic. When users click to this link, they will be moved to the begining of the topic.
If i put this link to the master page then apply this master page to all topics. So there is any way to hide this link automatically if the topic content is short and doesn't need to use this link ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi there
Are you actually using RoboHelp for Word and creating WinHelp?
Cheers... Rick

Can it be possible that a user insert data by a form and then create a PFD?

Can it be possible that a user insert data by a form, then store the data in the Data Base and finally create a PFD?
If this is possible with BI Publisher, what do i have to do to link the form with the BIPublisher interface?
Regards

Hi
If you just have a PDF form and do not need to pre populate data then all you need do is:
1. Add a submit button to the PDF - you can use the full Adobe product or a BIP API
2. Load the PDF as a template with a dummy data source.
The user can then run the "report" as usual. When they have completed the form they can hit the Sumit button on the form. Adobe will then scrape the data out of the form in an XML format and post it to the URL you added. At the other end of the URL you need a servlet to accept and process the XML data.
If you need to prepopulate the form you can attach a datasource to the PDF template but ensure the fields are preserved after running the form for the user through the config options.
BIP does have APIs to populate drop lists, etc but these are not exposed thru through the BIP UI.
I'll try and write this up for the blog and OTN soon

How to insert links in an Acrobat 8 pdf document to open folders

I am using Acrobat 8 and have made a "menu" page in InDesign which will has links in it to open other pdf documents. I have successfully exported to PDF from InDesign and inserted links to my PDF files which work perfectly. I now need to insert a link to direct the user to a particular folder so they can view the files/folders within that folder.
The complete set of documents will be burnt onto DVD and the "menu" pdf will open using an autorun file.
How can I insert a link in the PDF document that will open the folder that I want the reader to be able to view and navigate through themselves. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated as this is a major job for a client. I have seen a few ideas on the net but nothing that really answers my particular question.
Cheers - Claire

what should have been done, is place all the PDF in Folder including your contents page and Make all your links in Indesign. Then burn the folder to the DVD. That way all the links would be relative to location of the files.
Try a test that way. As was said Acrobat can't do it.

Insert Link and Insert Image broken in Chrome

The Insert Link and Insert Image buttons have been broken in my Chrome for at least the last couple of days (latest version, 32.0.1700.72 m, Windows 7 64).
When you click one of the buttons, the overlay window appears with a title, but it is otherwise black with no contents. (See screenshot below.)
The buttons work fine in Firefox. What hasn't helped: deleting cookies, clearing the browser cache, waiting for several minutes for their content to appear.

Whtat are we supposed to Claudio? All descend on Adobe with clubs and try to beat some sense into someone!
The fact is the customer is no longer the prime concern. Most companies don't give a Rats behind (toned down to prevent censors action) about the customers. It's the almighty dollar. Screw as many customers as they can while they can and line their pockets with all the green backs as they can while they can. Then if the cusomers leave so be they take their money and run.
Customer use to have power, they would speak loud and frequently and get things fixed. And what with people from other countries now owning US companies, That were brought up with different moral compasses. They have no concept of this thing of loyalty to customers. The customer can jump off a cliff and they will simply cheer them on while the do so.
We have lost, the fight can't be won. It no use. So Pat and others are right.
I've been trying for 15 years for adobe to fix the issue of having multiple Pdfs created from Office documents because the claim they can't figure out how MS does Page and section breaks. And the issue of Weblinks not being active when converted to PDF's Both on Mac's yet on PC's there is no issue. I quite this year after I received a down right nasty not from Adobe say they didn't have any interest in fixing the bugs and were not about to try. What it amounted was go take a flying leap.
They have the ability. They have beenblaming Its apple because they don't do such and such , or Microsoft because they don't do so and such. On the Links issue Saying MS doesn't provided the necessary hooks in the mac version of Office. They do you can take a Word document created on a Mac and open a PC and create a PDF and the links will be active. You can Open a Word Document in Apple's pages and all links created in Office document will be there. The argument has been proven several different ways to be a an outright bald-faced lie. The defect is squarely with the Mac version of Acrobat.
So Pat and others are right. Just throw in that towel. Adobe support of its customers is now 10 times worse than intuit's which is supposed have the lowest reputation of any software compny that ever existed.

Why does the link to the forms not open the form?

The email link to the form only works when I am trying to view the page however it does not open for other participants.

Its possible they have email clients that can't properly handle the URL. Do you know what email clients they are receiving he email with?
When you send out the email make sure it is formatted as HTML and not plain text/rtf.

Is it possible to add new columns with format "Text" once a table is linked to a form

Is it possible to add new columns with format "Text" once a table is linked to a form in Numbers for iPhone or is it impossible and thus a serious bug?(Rating stars and numeric vales seem to work.)
Those bugs happen both for new speadsheets as well as existing onces, like the demo. When you are in the form only the numeric keyboard shows up.
Pat from the Apple Store Rosenstrasse/Germany approved that it looks like a Bug during the Numbers Workshop I was in: It is not possible to add new columns with format "Text". I reported the error for Version 1.4 but there is no update nor do I get statement of understanding the issue.

Hi Knochenhort,
I see what you are talking about now. Without knowing how the program actually works, I think this is what's going on:
When you add a new column to an already existing table (with already existing formats), the new cells come already formatted like the previous column. So when you add a column to the end of the demo table, the cells are already formatted like stars, and when you add a column to the beginning, they're already formatted like number.
I think this is why it's different when if you add columns to a table with blank (unformatted) columns. In that case, the new cells aren't already "tainted" with a set format, so you can change to text format without issue.
It seems like the problem is that you can't format cells that are already formatted as "number" as "text" format (even if it doesn't look like they are, because they are blank). IMO, this is a bug! This is why you don't see this issue when adding columns to a new table, because the new cells don't already come with a format.
To workaround, you can highlight the body cells after adding the new column, and delete the cells. This will "clear" the formatting, so you can then go in the inspector, format them as text, and the correct keyboard will pop up.
Hope that helps!
