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.

e.g. Suppose 1 have a subform & in that 20 rows are available.If that subform split in 2 pages,it shows 10 rows in 1st page but in 2nd page it shows only 6-7 rows & truncates 2-3 rows from the last.I m not sure what can be the problem.
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.

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 ?

Problem with Adobe LifeCycle Designer and NWDS

Hi,
I have a Problem using the LifeCycle Designer in NWDS. The LifeCycle Designer is installed but every time I am trying to start it from the NWDS there is an error - Could not find the required product. Install SAP Interactive Forms - Adobe LiveCycle Designer...... .
Does anybody have an idea?
Thanks!
best regards

Hi,
I had the same issue.
the versions were these:-
ALCD->8.1
NWDS->7.0.114
whenever I was trying to edit the interactive form the same error was thrown.
So I removed the Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.1 from my machine.
Installed Adobe LiveCycle Designer 7.1 in place.
Now it is working fine.
Don't know the exact reasons why it was not working, but still keeping a copy of the 7.1 in your machine will help.

Problem with Adobe Lifecycle Designer 8.0

I am trying to use the email submit button in Lifecycle Designer 8.0 and I do not have the Control option in the field tab. Does anyone know how to have the control type selection appear in the field tab?

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,

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,

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,

Visual Composer as Modelling Tool
Models designed in Visual Composer can be deployed to run in one or more technology engines, including SAP HTML/B and Flex. The same model can be deployed to more than one environment, although not all components and controls are fully supported in each. Visual Composer implements a proprietary XML-based Visual Composer Language as its source code for creating the models. Only at deployment is the model actually compiled into the executable code required by the selected UI technology. The result is a model once run
anywhere capability.The models that you build in Visual Composer are generated in Generic Modeling Language (GML) code. To deploy your application to a portal, the GML code
must be compiled into a language supported by the portal. During compilation, warnings and possible errors may be discovered, enabling you to check the model validity. The compiled content is deployed directly to the portal, in the runtimeenvironment that you select.In runtime, transactional content can run through HTML/B and Flex, while
analytic content which may require a more animated environment may run through Flex. The models deployed by Visual Composer to the portal include runtime metadata, which is stored with the model in the PCD and exported in the business package, for delivery to customers.

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.

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.

Viewing issue with Adobe Reader

Hi there,
I'm having an issue with Adobe reader, which appears to be not related to platform or version. To cut a long story short. I've created an A4 design in Photoshop. Part of this design includes some boxes, that have been given an outline (border) effect. Also bare in mind that the Photoshop files are being created at 350dpi.
When I put my design into Illustrator/ InDesign and then generate a PDF file. I then go and look at the pdf file and when the zoom is at 100%, the edges of the boxes are not straight, you'll get a slight offset half way along for example. However, when I zoom in to 400% the problem disapears and the lines (edges) look perfectly as they should.
Does anyone know about this issue? I'm worried that when I print from the PDF, this issue will be in the print-out - or will it be OK when I print it seeming as it dissapears at 400% zoom.
Any prompt answers or help would be appreciated.
Kind regards,
Luke

Can you open Reader by itself? If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].

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".
