Integrate Adobe LIfeCycle Designer 8.0 into NetWeaver Development Studio 7

Hi everyone,
I need to integrate Adobe LIfeCycle Designer 8.0 into NetWeaver Development Studio, the issue is that I have installed Adobe LifeCycle but I wanted to know how in integrated into Netweaver Development Studio 7.0
Thanks very much in advance,
Armando

Hello Armando,
If u have installed NWDS, during the NWDS there is a checkbox to include Adobe LiveCycle Designer.However , NWDS 7 setup includes designer 6.0.
Case 1 : If u have not checked the above checkbox during NWDS installation.You can directly install any Designer version.
Case 2 : If u have checked the checkbox during NWDS installation , when u install designer 7 or 8 it will give a message saying A version of designer already exists,In the above scenario, you will have to either uninstall desginer 6(if possible) or reinstall NWDS without checking the Desinger Checkbox.After that you can install any designer version u want.
Hope it helps,
Regards,

ESS code into NetWeaver Developer Studio

Hi ,
Were it the ESS/MSS code to import to the NetWeaver Developer Studio ? And how do we import it ?
Any feelback is welcome
Regard's.

@C. Schutz
Achim is putting you on the right track for WebDynpro based ESS/MSS services....and even Java(JSP) versions. Your post was a bit vague though. What is the backend you are using and exactly what are you trying to pull into NWDS?
In general, for ECC5.0 and higher webdynpros and such, Achim put you on the right path. Setting up NWDI will be the biggest hurdle there...do not take it lightly!
For several other services however, any customization/coding you need to do can be done on the backend system in SE80.
Again....it really all depends...can you post more info?

Problem launching Adobe Designer in Netweaver Developer Studio

Hi All,
I have successfully (I believe) installed all the components required to have Adobe Interactive Forms running on WAS 6.40 (SR1), in accordance with Achim Hauk's blog 'My struggles with the Adobe Document Services in WAS6.40' (thanks Achim!).
When I go to try the Interactive Form tutorial, and I launch the Adobe Designer 6.0 from Netweaver Developer Studio (version 2.0.9) by right-clicking on my InteractiveForms UI element and selecting 'Edit', I get a popup error 'An error occurred decoding Base64 data - encoded data is invalid or corrupted'. Does anyone know what this means and how to correct it? When I press the OK button on this popup the Adobe Designer is correctly launched, however any changes I make within the Designer don't seem to be saved.
Any help would be very much appreciated. Not sure if it makes any difference, but I have Adobe Reader 6.0.2 installed on my client.
Thanks

Hi John,
I've installed the SP15 sneak preview last weekend. Based on my experience, if you are not using SSL set up, you only need three steps to set up ADS.
1. Create user ADSUser and user group ADSGroup
2. Set up basic authentication
3. Set up credential file
Now, step 1 and 2 which is in the guide is already done when you finish the installation of sneak preview SP15. All you have to do is to set up credential file.
I was having problem with Read timed out issue, and Markus pointed that web service time out need to be increased in my case. I haven't tested it yet since I am away from my PC, but i'm pretty sure it will fix the time out problem.
Also if you download the credential a while back, that file will expired the end of this month (Feb). Markus has posted a new credential file which will expire in June.

Iwan

Issues with Adobe LifeCycle Designer & SAP Netweaver

Hi,
I m using Adobe Lifecycle Designer 7.0 with SAP NetWeaver 7.0.11 on Windows XP.I m facing these 2 problems in that.
1. I have few subforms in my form & for those i have set Auto fit property as true,Expand to fit property is true ,Allow multiple lines property is true ,Allow Page breaks within content property is true & the layout is flow content.
If the complete data for 1 subform is shown in same page,it shows the complete data but if the data is split into more than 1 pages,its showing the data in both pages but it truncates 2-3 lines at the end.I m not sure what can be the problem?
2. While using Flow content ,i m not able to put some blank spaces between 2 subforms.
regards
Sumit

Hi Sumit,
You have probably worked this out by now but just in case anyone else has this problem (I remember how frustrating it was):
Just to point out this has nothing to do with NetWeaver (apart from the LiveCycle version it is using) only with LiveCycle.
Page flow will only occur within the parent subform so if you have an subform that is flowed it can only flow within the parent and if the parent is static (or positioned) then the child subform will appear to be cut off as it flows within its parent.
To be able to flow over pages you need to have all the parent objects right up the chain to the sub form that represents your page to be flowed as well.
The next challenge is to be able to position things the way you want them and flow your content. This is where you need to get a creative mix of positioned and flowed elements within your layout to achieve your goals.
Relating to the second question you can use the margin attributes to create space between two flowed objects.
Hope this helps (someone...)
Ben.

Unable to open Adobe LifeCycle Designer in Netweaver Developer Studio

I was trying to work on SAP interactive forms by Adobe.
1.I have installed SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio Version: 7.0.09
2.I have installed Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.0
3. I have Adobe Reader 7.0.
Now when I am editing the interactive form from NWDS, it says "Could not find the required product, Install SAP Interactive Forms - Adobe Live cycle designer to edit the Interactive Form"
Have I missed some additional settings after the installation? And is there anything to do with the versions?
Can any one suggest me how to resolve this issue ?

Integrating adobe lifecycle designer 8.0 with SAPGUI

hello,
I have installed adobe lifecycle desginer 8.0 (which comes with adobe acrobat 8.0 . Now how can i integrate this within the SAPGUI and work on interactive forms. Anybody ?
Thanks,
Shehryar Dahar

hi,
Adobe Lifecycle designer for interactive forms comes as a bundle with the Netweaver installation.
its integrated with Netweaver itself.
my netweaver version # is 2.0.16
then you put a UI element called "interactive form" on your dynpro layout.
when you goto...
Interactive form -> Edit...
it takes you to the Adobe Lifecycle designer... where you can design your interactive form.
i hope this helps,
regards,

2. I m not able to put some extra space between 2 subforms while using Flow Content Layout.

To create a form in the AcroForm format or LiveCycle Designer you will need Acrobat Professional as Standard does not have the form tools. Although LiveCycle Designer will export in the XML format. It is also possible to export form data from Acrobat in the XML format by using the XFDF format.

Adding Barcode to Adobe Form using Adobe LifeCycle Designer

I am hoping someone can help me. I have created a PDF form and have added 2 3-of-9 barcodes to the form using Adobe LifeCycle Designer version 8.0. I see the barcodes when I prin tthe form from Adobe but when I run my web page to print out the form using pdf, only the default value shows on the printed form, no tthe barcode as expected? Do I need some other software?
Thanks in advance

Hi Vasu,
Yes you can add fonts on ADS.
Adobe document services require access to fonts that are installed with the Font Manager Module. This module contains a number of Adobe bundled fonts installed in
"/usr/sap/<SAPSID>/JC<xx>/j2ee/os_libs/adssap/FontManagerService/fonts/adobe".
You can also add fonts obtained from other vendors. The types of fonts you can add are OpenType® (.otf), TrueType® (.ttf), and PostScript® Type 1 (.pfb/.pfm).
Procedure
To add fonts:
1. Create a subdirectory called fonts below the
"/usr/sap/<SAPSID>/SYS/global/AdobeDocumentServices/ FontManagerService" directory.
Enter JC<xx> if your system is a SAP Web AS J2EE system.
Enter DVEBMGS<xx> if your system is a SAP Web AS ABAP + J2EE system (J2EE Add-In).
2. Create a subdirectory called customer below the fonts/ directory created in the previous step.
3. Copy your fonts into the "/usrsap/<SAPSID>/SYS/global/AdobeDocumentServices/ FontManagerService/fonts/customer" directory.
4. Restart the Document Services Font Manager for the changes to take effect.
5. Also restart the application com.adobe/AdobeDocumentServices for the changes to take effect.

BPM 7.3 - Adobe Lifecycle Designer 9.0

Hi guys,
I`m a PI developer and quite new to SAP BPM, only took part in the SAP training several months ago.
Now my colleague installed a BPM 7.3 system and I`m trying to implement some processes starting with
the sample of the training.
At the moment I try to connect Adobe Lifecycle Designer with the NWDS to use Adobe Forms.
Following note 1522483 I choose Adobe Lifecycle Designer 9.0 and installed it.
During the installation my old version 8.2 was recognized and as described in the note it should be updated.
At the end of the installation there was an error report indicating that there was some trouble during update
of the installation
Error description: Not Available
ErrorCode: -2147467259
State: Install on Update
Type: File
Dest: C:\Programme\Adobe\Designer 9.0\FormDesigner.exe
Source: C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\jogugel\Desktop\TEMP\BPM\Adobelifecycledesigner9\Adobe\Designer 9.0\FormDesigner.exe
when I edit the created xdp file in NWDS I could for example create a new data connection specifying the created xsd file, but I am not able to save any changes.
In the Error log following errors are visible:
openDocumentWithBaseUrl() NOT successfully called (maybe too old version of WDAdobeControl.dll?).
File: <C:\Knowledge_local\BPM_BRM\NWDS 7.3 workspace.jdi\LocalDevelopment\PO_DEMO_SC\exsignodeloitte.ch\po_product_demo\pr\pm\_comp\src\PurchaseRequestForm.xdp>
Path: <C:\Knowledge_local\BPM_BRM\NWDS 7.3 workspace.jdi\LocalDevelopment\PO_DEMO_SC\exsignodeloitte.ch\po_product_demo\pr\pm\_comp\src\> ...
Trying to call openDocument() instead ... [Error: com.sap.fp.is.ide.adobetemplatedesigner.AdobeDesignerEditorPart Thread[main,6,main]]
and a second error:
NativeWrapper.openDocumentWithBaseUrl() returns false because rgdispid is null
[Error: com.sap.fp.is.ide.adobetemplatedesigner.NativeWrapper Thread[main,6,main]]
I already searched for this error in SDN and the web, but without result.
The NWDS version I am using is 7.3 SP02 PAT0001
Does anybody has an idea what the reason for this error could be and how to solve it,
maybe I am using two incompatible versions? Is there a way to check or guide describing this?
Any help appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Kind regards,
Jochen
Beforehand I already tried Designer 8.2

Hi John,
thanks for your answer.
I deinstalled and installed the Lifecycle Designer from sratch again.
Unfortunately the same error arises.
openDocumentWithBaseUrl() NOT successfully called (maybe too old version of WDAdobeControl.dll?).
Any suggestions?
Kind regards,
Jochen

Can we integrate a report designed in CR2008 into VS2010?

Hello,
1. Can we integrate a report designed in CR2008 into VS2010 ?
2. Our client has obtained license only for CR2008 (bought a single case) and we too develop/design .rpt file in CR2008 , So is it enough to install only CR2008 run time in the client machine to launch the Report in VS2010 application (.Net 4.0) or do we need to install SAP Crystal Report for Visual Studio 2010 run time in client machine to launch the report?
Thanks & Regards,
Mani G.S.

Hi Mani,
1. No. CR 2008 is not compatible / tested/ supported with VS 2010.
Only CR for VS 2010 is supported and meant to work with VS 2010.
2. Please refer to my response in below thread.
[Few quesions about SAP Crystal Report for Visual Studio 2010 and CR2011|Few quesions about SAP Crystal Report for Visual Studio 2010 and CR2011]
Please do not post same the question in multiple threads.

Error during installing Adobe LifeCycle Designer

Hi all,
I am trying to install Adobe LifeCycle Designer 8.1 , already downloaded all files from service marketplace.
But while running set up,getting below error message:
The SAP Front-End Installer executable is unable to process the XML files.Restart the uninstallation with the
NwSapSetup executable installed on the workstation.
Do anyone knows about this error message.
Thanks in advance.
Kiran

It seems that I solved the problem by myself by deleting the 11.0 subdirectory in <AppData>\Roaming\Adobe\Designer.
Afterwards, the application started normally and the settings were created from scratch.

Eine speicherbare PDF mit Adobe LifeCycle Designer ES 2 oder 8.0 erstellen

Hallo AdobeForumMembers,
ich habe in Adobe LifeCycle Designer 8.0 (FirmenVollversion) ein Formular mit Checkboxen und aussfüllbaren Zeilen erstellt und möchte dies nun in einer PDF speichern, die nach dem Ausfüllen auch vom Endbenutzer abgespeichert werden kann. Wenn ich die PDF mit dem aktuellen Adobe Reader öffne, kann die PDF nicht gespeichert werden. Wie oder wo kann ich diese Einstellung denn ändern? Habe schon die Hilfe und das Forum durchgesucht, aber leider nichts gefunden. Habe mir auch die Testversion von ES 2 installiert, aber auch dort finde ich keine Option dafür.
Danke im voraus und mit freundlichen Grüßen

Hallo!
Ich habe schon bemerkt, dass der LCD bei Acrobat XI nicht mehr kostenlos mitgeliefert wird (sondern ein anderes, mehr dialogorientiertes Tool). Der Grund dafür wurde mir beim Kauf von LCD ES4 aber damit angegeben, dass der LCD für den normalen Endanwender zu komplex sei. Er wird wohl vor allem bei SAP-Umgebungen benutzt. Für mich taugt er aber, weil ich mit JavaScript viel Funktionalität einbauen kann.
Wie sich aus LiveCycle Help | Adobe LiveCycle ES4 Supported Platforms ergibt, wird mit LCD ES 4 & SP 1 auch Windows 8 unterstützt. Insofern ist deine Aussage für mich "überraschend".

Adobe LifeCycle Designer funktioniert nicht mehr

Ich habe LCS ES4 SP 1 (German) seit mehreren Monaten auf meinem Laptop (Dell E6500) mit Win 8.1 als Standalone-Version (also nur Designer für Formularerzeugung) genutzt.

Ich habe im Zusammenhang mit Problen mit WLAN auf dem Laptop von Dell eine Treiberaktualisierung durchgeführt. Es gab da aber keine Fehler und sonst funktioniert auf dem PC auch alles wie vorher (WLAN geht nun auch, lag aber am Hardwareschalter).
Ich habe LCS auf einem anderen Laptop mit Win 8.1 installiert: funktioniert (gleiche Installationsdateien wie oben) ohne Probleme. Ich habe LCS auf dem betroffenen Dell-Laptop mehrfach deinstaliert/neu installiert (PC rauf/runter). Immer das gleiche.
Der letzte Schritt, der mir noch einfällt, wäre Win 8.1 neu installieren. Aber den Aufwand scheue ich (noch). Wer kann mir einen Tip geben?

Configuring adobe live cycle designer in netweaver developer studio

Hi,
I installed Adobe Life Cycle designer 7.1 on Studio for NW04S SP9 , I open up the interactive forms ui element .
Then I opened the library pallete on the studio, but I dont find the webdynpro tab.
What should I do.
Thanks,
Harish

Hi Amol,
I have done this but to no avail.
I picked the prerequisites from help.sap.com
Let me know what I have missed:
<b>You have installed the SAP NetWeaver 4.0 Developer Workplace. You must also have Acrobat Reader 7.0 or a full version of Adobe Acrobat 7.0 if you want to use the InteractiveForm UI element. In addition, the Adobe component of the SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio must be installed as this component is not installed in the standard version. However, it is very easy to install it if you want to use interactive PDF forms.</b>
The above is the prerequisite in help.sap.com
What I have done is
1. Downloaded Netweaver Developer Studio NW04S SP9 , from service.sap.com
2. Downloaded Adobe Life Cycle designer 7.1 from service.sap.com
3. I run the aldsetup.exe
Let me know what else needs to be done
Thanks,
