How to work with PDF forms filled up by the user?

I would appreciate any help regrading work with PDF Forms.
I present a PDF form to users with several fields that they need to fill up.
My problem is to receive the values of these fields back.
In PDF forms you can add a "Submit" button that sends the fields to a given servlet.
That, however, takes me out of my session and out of JSF navigation model.
I can't find a way to go back.
The PDF form is shown in an iframe, so Java Script outside of the iframe cannot know about the "Submit" button action.
Thanks for any help or reference on this subject.

I am new to working with pdf. I am trying to fill out a form that was attached to a web site. I have a Macbook Pro. I am just learning Acrobat. How do I get the form to accept input?

If there are Acrobat PDF form fields, not jus a space for a form field, then you will have to add them. It would be better to ask the provider of the form to add the fields. If you cannot add the fields, then you can use the add text feature.
Have you looked in the "Tools" panel for the "Forms" category?

Working with .pdf files and JAVA

Hi,
does anyone have an answer to how I can find more information on .pdf files?
I would like to convert .pdf files to textfiles and/or xml files. I can not find it in the j2se Edition, and someone told me it can be found in the j2ee edition, but I can not find anything there either. Please help..
thanks,
R.

thanks for your reply. What tools do you mean? I know lots of tools for converting text to a .pdf file, but no tools for the other direction. There is an API available (commercial), that lets you work with PDF in JAVA, but i am interesting in the other possibilities.
Regards

Update JavaScript to work with Acrobat 8

A predecessor created the following JavaScript to add a menu i
tem that inserts a background image. This works in Acrobat 7 but only in Acrobat 8 if Acrobat 7 is or was installed previously, clean installs of Acrobat 8 and the script does nothing.
Is there anything that needs to be changed in the script for it to work with new installs of Acrobat 8?
//add background function
background=app.trustedFunction (
function ()
app.beginPriv();
this.addWatermarkFromFile({
cDIPath: "/c/invoice/invoice.pdf",
bOnTop: false,
nHorizAlign: app.constants.align.center,
nVertAlign: app.constants.align.middle,
nOpacity:100;
app.endPriv();
//Add functions to menu
app.addMenuItem({cName: "Add invoice background", cParent: "Document", cExec: "background()",cEnable: true, nPos: 1});
Thanks

There is an error which mentions "missing { after property list". Anyway, I changed the following in the script and it now functions as expected:
nOpacity:100;
to
nOpacity:1.0
Thanks

Hello,
Did you check the fulltext log files for more details about the errors. If the filter isn’t working, there should be errors in the error log file.
The following thread is about similar issue, please refer to:

Zoom to fit doesn't work with Jpegs (works with pdfs)

Note: we are not talking about zoom to fit for pdf, etc but ONLY about zoom to fit for jpegs and similar graphics files.
The problem: starting with Snow Leopard if you have a small picture in actual size but expand the window then click zoom to fit the picture will not expand to fit the larger window (yes it reduces resolution). Please don't tell me it works fine for PDFs, we know it does but talking about jpegs and similar graphics. Dozens have reported this problem but the response was to disregard the postings and then archive them. Does everyone have the same problem with JPEGS under Snow Leopard (with Jpegs only)? Anyone have a solution? A year ago someone posted and had dozens reply. Here is the posting a year ago:
"Hello, just checking to see whether other people are having the same problem with Snow Leopard. In Preview, if you resize the window and then click View --> Zoom to Fit, it simply resets to actual size. In Leopard, it would resize the picture to fit the window.
Is this broken for others? "

External Javascript not working with C# and XAML windows phone app

I've added a WebView into my project. If I navigate to the html file that contains external javascript files they don't work. Bit if I write the javascript code hardcoded into the html file it works properly.
Here is the html portion:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html lang="en" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<title></title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="testjs.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="abcd"></div>
<br/>
hello! this is a simple html block.
</body>
</html>
Here is the javascript portion:
document.getElementById("abcd").innerHTML = "New text!";
When I open the webview it shows
hello!
this is a simple html block.,
but if the javascript code worked it would show
New
Test! hello! this is a simple html block.
And in the C# code the uri is called this way:
url = onlineTestWebView.BuildLocalStreamUri("myUrl", "problem_page/test.html");
StreamUriWinRTResolver myResolver = new StreamUriWinRTResolver();
onlineTestWebView.NavigateToLocalStreamUri(url, myResolver);

I assume this is because you are using NavigateToString. Please see

If my reply answers your question, please mark this post as answered.
NOTE: If I ask for code, please provide something that I can drop directly into a project and run (including XAML), or an actual application project. I'm trying to help a lot of people, so I don't have time to figure out weird snippets with undefined

Work with PDF created from scan

Hi, how can I edit or work with text (highlight, copy...) in document which was created as PDF by scaning from the book?

rudla wrote:

Perhaps, you could load the scanned document in photoshop, photoshop elements or even in Corel's Paintshop Pro. All of these programs can be downloaded for trial use for 30 days and you never know you could be tempted to buy them because they are so good that you would want them to do wonderful things with them.
Good luck.

This question was solved.
View Solution.

Oh..Yes. It worked. !!
Thanks Jack for your inputs, that helped a lot.
The issue was not with the printer, but that the PDF document itself was a secured PDF document.
I tried copying the document from my pc to mac and tried to open the document and what i saw was exactly what got printed earlier in my first post. Tried attaching to my email and when downloaded, the document had just those text that got printed (also pasted below).
Finally got it working when directly printed from the pc over wireless(or wired). Looks good now .

Javascript not working with 'Display as Text (does not saves state)'

Hi,
We have these following items in P3 of our application,
P3_EDIT_ACCOUNT Display as Text (saves state)
P3_USEFUL_LINKS Display as Text (saves state)
P3_LAST_APPROVED Display as Text (saves state)
P3_ARCHIVES Display as Text (saves state)
And we are initializing these items in a pl/sql process under 'Page Rendering'
For example,
:P3_ARCHIVES := '<font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="-1">Archives</font></a><td> ';
When our environment was upgraded from HTMLDB1.5 to HTMLDB2.0,
instead of displaying the proper value of :P3_ARCHIVES,
it was displaying the tags,
i.e. instead of displaying 'Archives', it was displaying the whole
'<font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="-1">Archives</font></a><td> '
So, when we changed all items to 'Display as Text (does not saves state)' and it was working.
But then we have another problem,
We render the rest of the same page with another pl/sql block,
Here is a portion from that pl/sql for your reference,
htp.p('
<script>
//Script to check the status change.
//The script source is rendered through PL/SQL.
function checkStatus()
var promptStr = someString;
if(ans.toUpperCase() == "AMBER" || ans.toUpperCase() == "RED")
          var cnfm = confirm(promptStr);
          if(cnfm)
          do something....
</script>
htp.print('
<td width="5%" bgcolor="#ebebc5" height="19" align="middle" >
<input TYPE="radio" name="'||l_g_fnumber||'" value="GREEN"');
IF l_allow_update THEN
     htp.print(' onClick="checkStatus()"');
ELSE
htp.print(' disabled onmousedown="return false;"');
                    do something....
Now the issue is , when we changed all items to 'Display as Text (does not saves state)', the checkStatus() function is not getting called in the onClick
event of the radio button and hence the confirm window for the call to
confirm(promptStr) is not coming up.
But if we revert back the items to 'Display as Text (saves state)',
the checkStatus() javascript function is getting called properly but html tags are displayed against the items instead of the proper value (as mentioned in ********)
Please do let us know a possible solution to this issue.
Thanks & Regards-
Rupak

Thanks Varad for your response.
This is the error i am getting.
1 error has occurred
PLSQL anonymous block source type can be used ONLY with Display Text (based on PLSQL) item type.
yes i am using in the source..
I also tried with the PL/SQL Expression of FUNCTION in this case it is executing the query but once i run the page ora- 06550 error occured.
Thanks

Javascript not working with web.show_document.

Hi,
I executed the below command from forms 10g and it is not working.
web.show_document('javascript:var win=showModalDialog("http://otn.oracle.com/products/forms");','_self');
But if I execute javascript:var win=showModalDialog("http://otn.oracle.com/products/forms"); directly in IE, then it is working.
Frank, can you help me in this or any other people having any idea ?
Very urgent.
Thanks & Regds,
Nandakumar

Hi Mark,
Thanks for your quick reply. Your question is right. I think let me explain clearly my requirement. I have an application accessed in the web. A internet user is trying to a report through the application by giving a parameter as "A". Now using the window.open method, the report is displayed in the IE browser. Now the user can go to history and can see the complete URL with parameters.
If he just copies and pastes that url from history in the browser, the reports runs successfully. If he changes any of the parameter to "B", there is a chance that report will show the report for parameter "B". This should not happen.
Hope this is clear. Let me know if you are not still clear. Moreover, in the IE it is possible to clear history, but for internet based applications, how can we set them.
Thanks & Regds,
Nandakumar

Preview: Working with PDF Forms

Hi all,
We had a faculty member (using a mac and preview) edit one of our PDF form docs (created using Acrobat Professional 8). The problem we have noticed is if the user fills out each field using Preview, then saves the document (PDF again) and sends to us her data has disappeared when we open it in Adobe Reader or Professional. the funny thing is...if you click in (for example) field 1 the data shows. But, as soon as you remove focus from that field it disappears again.
So, in testing this. If you open the document back in Preview the data is there. Again, this only happens if the form is filled out using Preview. Any ideas - I've seen this problem around the web, but no solutions.
Thanks in advance!
mz

Hello -
I don't know that there -is- a fix; it's a limitation of Preview, Acrobat Reader, etc. (With Reader, you'll actually get a warning message to the effect 'You won't be able to save a completed copy of this form on your computer ...')
Your user can use the print dialog to save the completed form as a PDF, if that'll work in your application.
Good luck.

Javascript not working when pdf is rendered in the browser IE9

I have a javascript on the initialize event of a field and it works fine when doing a Preview PDF but not when i render the PDF in the browser
if(F.Page_1.field1.rawValue == null)
F.Page_1.field1.presence = "invisible";
F.Page_1.field2.presence = "visible";
Can some one pelase help?
Thanks,
F.Page_1.field1::initialize - (JavaScript, client)

Hi,
The initialize event is supported in browsers, but the issue may be if the form is saved as a Dynamic XML Form in the save-as dialog in LC Designer. Or if you using LC Enterprise Suite to render the forms at runtime, if you have set the render in LC Designer: File > Form Properties > Defaults to Dynamic XML Form:
Changing an object's presence requires a dynamic form.
