Issues with Adobe LifeCycle Designer

Hi,
I m using Adobe LifeCycle Designer 7.0 with SAP NetWeaver 7.0.11 on windows XP.I m facing these 2 problems :
1. In my form i have few subforms.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 some data.
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.

Sumit

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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,

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)].

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,

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.

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,

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.

Acrobat cannot start Adobe LifeCycle Designer! Help!

Can someone help please?
I downloaded a trial version of acrobat 9 pro LCD last week, it opened then, but not anymore. This is the message i get everytime i try to open it, "Acrobat cannot start Adobe LifeCycle Designer. You may need to repair or reinstall the application using the original installation program."
MS SQL server 2009 was installed on my desktop this week, and from another discussion i read that this server and LCD dont get along with each other, and since LCD worked last week for me I am assuming installation of SQL server could be a possible reason why LCD wouldnt open now.
My task is to create a dynamic form that should generate a report from just typing in one field, (for example, entering the name of an account holder should populate the remaining fields of the account holder's data as result.)
has anyone done this so they can help troubleshoot??

I wrote too soon.
So the form seems to be done and functional. I just had to click cancel before going to Livecycle. Then I save it and work on it in Acrobat. I don't know why Livecycle isn't installed correctly, or honestly, what Livecycle does that Acrobat doesn't.
Anyway, problem resolved.

Adobe Lifecycle Designer and reader

I am using Adobe Lifecycle Designer ES 8.2 to design online forms. The version of Adobe Reader at the company is 8. When a user fills out the form using Adobe Reader 8, the user is unable to safe the form in Adobe Reader 8. Subsequently, the user cannot attach the form via email. The user receives a message in Adobe Reader that he/she can only save a blank version of the form, not a form filled with data. Is there a workaround for this?

Did you enable the form for Reader users to be able to save (that's an extra step after building the form)?
I'm not sure where it is in Designer but in Acrobat it's under Advanced>Extend features in Adobe Reader...
One thing to keep in mind (since you mentioned you are using this for a company) is that there are limitations in the EULA that prevent you from collecting data from a form more than 500 times. More than that could put your company at risk.
It may not be a big deal for your use but it's worth looking in to if you are going to use saveable forms.

I don't know if this is the right section but I experience the following issue with Adobe Acrobat Pro XI installed on Windows 8.1. When I start Acrobat the related window opens normally but, after some scroll up and down along the document, it blocks, Acrobat doesn't respond to any command I can give and, in place of the pointer arrow, a vertical bar, as the one of the text editor appears. The only way I can stop Acrobat is by means of the task manager. I tried to de-install and the re- install Acrobat but the behaviour is always the same. What can I do??

Have you opened Acrobat and gone to Help>Updates to get an updated install?
