Is there a tool or method for editting line elements on a pdf form?
We have recently created about 200 different acrobat forms with field elements. We started with MS Word and converted to PDF using Acrobat Professional then we added in the form elements. However the customer wants many lines removed or modified, table borders changed etc. Is there a tool out there that will allow me to edit the pdf directly and delete a line or fill in a gap in a table? We do not want to revert back to the word versions and start all over again.
As an example please view this file: http://kendallrace.com/cas.pdf We need to remove that half outlined table cell in the upper left, we need to remove the underlines in the middle of the page. And sometimes the border of a table cell might not be outlined so we need to draw a line to finish the outline.
Thanks in advance for the help,
Trent
Thanks a lot george, that appears to have worked great. Thank you!!!

Is there a way to delete one of several checkboxes from a pdf form without the leftover checkboxes automatically renumbering themselves?
I used LiveCycle Designer to make a pdf form with many checkboxes. When I deleted a few of the checkboxes the rest left on the form renumbered themselves. This made my JavaScript out of sync since the JavaScript checkbox numbers did NOT update automatically. I am hoping there is a preference option to not auto update. I just cannot find it,I believe you're using the same name for each checkbox, right?!
If so, each checkbox has an index number which represents its position relative to the other copies in the XML tree and when you add, delete or reorder the copies the index will always be recreated because thats the way how XML works.
There is no way to stop Designer from doing this, I'm afraid.
To address individual objects through JavaScript you should use unique names. -
How to make multi-box fields for name or address in a PDF form to be filled in?
I would like to know how to make fields for name and address in a PDF form.
I am now using Acrobat 8 Pro on Windows Vista. I have downloaded a form in the format of a PDF file. Basically it is just a file holding images of pages of the document, and there are no fields for me to type something on it using computer. This form will be used frequently by me, but I don't want to print it out and fill it in every time by hand. I want to fill it in in the computer and print copies of it when needed. The output will then be much more neat and tidy.
I have seen PDF forms with blanks for typing name and address, which means the form can be filled in on the computer before printing. They are special, as these blanks allow users to type name and address with every character occupying a box in the field, which consists of ten boxes or so. These are not ordinary textfields. I want to make similar inputting field as well.
Does anyone knows something about making these input fields with each character using 1 little box in the multi-box field? Any ideas are appreciated.Does anyone knows something about making these input fields with each

Is there a cook book method for creating an exe out of Teststand ?
I'm trying to port Teststand to a target machine. I want to use LV 6.0 Operator Interface on the target machine also. EXACTLY what steps do I have to preform to get the Operator Interface, all my VI's that Teststand uses in my particular application and all the engines I need to run what was written on the Developmental station onto the Target machine. I couldn't find the operator interface in LV manual and the Teststand book was terrible to follow.
Hello Clint -
The unfortunate problem with the manual is that it has to cover all possible variations of a deployment scenario, and as a result it gets a little jumbled. There is usually a fairly point-by-point document available on the web, sadly it is down this week for edits for new TestStand 3.0 material but I will attach below a word documents with the contents of the tutorial valid for a TestStand 2.0.x / LabVIEW solution as this may help.
In general, the super-short list of events goes as follows:
(1) Deploy TestStand Run Time Engine (use the Wizard in the tools menu)
(2) Use your 'testexec.bld' file (in the OI's folder)as a short cut in LabVIEW for creating a functioning EXE and installer for your interface. Not that this works best if yo
u have a default interface, you'll have to handle any additional files yourself.
(3) Carry your code and support files (this can be integrated into step 1 if you want) however you want.
Naturally the issues arise when you have custom components or nonstandard situations, read the attached doc below for the 'long list' that covers the details.
If you're using TestStand 3.0 there are new tools that can make this process faster/easier but it sounds as though you're working with a fairly finished system so I won't go into those right now. If there is a particular part of the process you are concerned about, feel free to post again and we will focus on just that.

we want to know if there is command tool/API/cmdlet for the feature?
thanksHello,
You can try to synchronize between two SQL Databases using the Sync Framework SDK and a Windows Azure worker role.You can also use the Sync Framework to write a console application to synchronize Windows Azure SQL Database with on-premises SQL Servers.

Sending photos for editing in elements
How can I transfer photos from lightroom 5 after editing to elements 12 for final editing?
I think you need to be a member of Elements Village to open attachments at that link. You can do the setup in Lightroom prefs. From the Library go to:
Edit >> Preferences
Then select the External Editing tab.
Click the choose button in the section for Additional External Editor and then navigate to Photoshop Elements Editor application to complete the set up.
You need to start the round trip from LR as follows and use the save command (Ctrl+S) not save as:
1) Ctrl+E in the Library to export selected image with develop settings (I choose PSD)
2) Edit in Photoshop; then Ctrl+S to replace (overwrite) Lightroom export copy
3) Ctrl+W to close in Photoshop and update Lightroom thumbnail -
Is it possible for users to enter data on PDF forms?
I would like to use Crystal Reports to generate a PDF form with data from database; I am experienced with that.
Here's the question -- Many of the fields will be populated from my database, but I would like to leave some fields blank for the user to edit manually. (I do not expect these edits to update the database.) Is there a field or object I can insert to allow for these manual edits?
I have seen this feature at my own benefits website. I can click on the PDF and enter some values in blank fields. It gives me a warning that the changes will only be shown when I print, not when I save.
I have been unable to create this feature using Visual Studio 2005. Do I have to upgrade to 2008? Or do I have to upgrade my Crystal Report package in Visual Studio? Or is this feature not possible in Visual Studio?
Any thoughts are most welcome.
Edited by: John Miedema on Sep 3, 2008 9:07 PMThere are 3rd-party tools (see comprehensive list at http://www.kenhamady.com/bookmarks.html) that provide extra pdf functionality on top of the pdf export from Crystal.
In the case of my Visual CUT software, you can use hidden formulas inside your Crystal report to generate form fields (pre-populated as well as empty) as part of the pdf export process.

Is there any way to add a text from html into a PDF form using javascript?
I have a SCORM based package having only a PDF form to show. I want to add user name from SCORM LMS to be added on the PDF whenever user launches PDF from LMS.
Please let me know if there is any way to execute this.
Thanx.Hi, hbirkie, and welcome to Apple Discussions. No, there isn't any way to apply text to a photo in iPhoto — you have to do that in a different application. MS Word is the last one I would ever have thought of using for that purpose, but if it works for you, great!

Hi,
We have SSIS Package, which in-turn executes some Stored procedures .
This Package runs fine at certain time, say 30 minutes which is acceptable. But sometimes, it takes around 1.5 hr. There was no modification done to the package, and the amount of data handled by the package is also same.
I have a doubt that some other big process may be running in parallel when this package is getting executed.
All the Databases are on D drive in the server and currently there is 140 GB free space out of 1 TB.
Now, using sp_who2 I can check what are the big processes which are running in parallel when this package is getting executed and get their Disk I/O.
Now having these information, is there any way to determine, amount of space/memory required to execute a particular query in 30 minutes.
Or to put a question in other way, I have a query and I know its acceptable execution time(30 min). Now is there any way to determine the criteria to get that execution time.
NOTE: The query is optimized and required indexes are created. It was running fine, until 1 week back. Suddenly the execution time has increased.
Can some one please help me in this. Please let me know if you need any further information on this.
Also whenever these jobs are running, sometimes job activity monitor and SSMS gets frozen. Any idea what does this indicate?
Thanks in advance,
RakshaPerhaps blocking?

Best method for editing registry? (HKLM and HKCU during deployment)
Hi
I'm new to MDT so this may be pretty basic so please forgive me.
First for HKLM. Currently I have all my HKLM edits done via synchronous actions in my unattend file. I've read thins about editting local GP and/or using powershell scripts instead. Is there a prefered method or is it personal taste?
HKCU - To edit things like the default wallpaper I've got a vbs (call it Script A) that loads the ntuser.dat in the registry - adds a run once cal to another script (Script B) then unloads that registry. Then Script A copies Script B from the deployment
share to a location on the client. That way whenever a new user logs into the machine for the first time the run once entry files off Script B which contains all my settings. This method seems kind of iffy. Is there a better way?Hi,
Did you mean the startup script to change registry keys?
In group policy editor you may add scripts to run at start up. The setting is under
Computer Configuration/Windows Settings/Scripts/Startup. You could also use task scheduler to schedule the script to run at start up.
Assign computer startup scripts
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc779329%28WS.10%29.aspx
For your second question, did you mean the Script B didn’t run when a new user login?
To let new user apply all changes you did, we need to customize the default user profile for all users’ reference.
Customize the default local user profile when preparing an image of Windows

This is the MDT forum link.

In my "running header (character style)" text variables, some of the items are quite long and take up more space in my header than I have room for - because I have another "running header (character style)" text variable beside it - and I am trying to figure out if there is a way to force that text variable to go into two lines when it runs out of space.
Does anyone know if this is possible?Sadly, only by adding a forced line break in the variable. Adobe’s engineers are unable to allow long variables to break at the end of a line. Sad, since this is a feature I remember from a Macintosh word processor I used in 1988.

How can I edit the email on a PDF form that's not created by me?
I'm a beginner for Acrobat Pro and there is an email button on the form for user to email to the previous admin, how can I change the email addres to mine? When I try to edit on forms, it asked me to click "save a copy", I really can edit and changed to email address, however when I tested it, it said this is only a data but not a form.

Better yet, edit the original source document, create a new PDF, and replace the old pages with the new: Tools > Pages > Replace
