Large page numbers will crash Livecycle Designer! Beware!

I tried converting a 70 page .pdf file to fillable, and when I try to scroll down my forms past page 30 in Designer, the remaining pages get cut off. I cannot access over half of my document.
Don't make the same mistake! Separate your file into smaller chunks because Adobe Designer cannot handle larger files!

Ahh, no, it doesn't quite work.
Throughout a section I have info boxes - these are text boxes wrapped in a subform called info1a, info1b etc. which are set to be hidden pre print - and post print they are set to visible. This works in itself.
However the code above still counts the page numbers within the section prior to the info boxes being hidden - in other words, the info boxes cause the pages to be printed to extend beyond the section as if the info boxes were still there, even though they are not.
If I have two buttons - one to set the visibility of the info boxes to hidden and then click another button to print the section then it works fine, but I can't amalgamate the instructions into one single button.
Here's what I have so far:
Button one - to hide info boxes:
form1.summary.Button1[2]::click - (JavaScript, client)
  this.resolveNode("form1.summary.info1a").presence = "hidden";
this.resolveNode("form1.summary.info1b").presence = "hidden";
this.resolveNode("form1.summary.info1c").presence = "hidden";
Button two - to print the section:
form1.summary.Button1[0]::click - (JavaScript, client)
var vObj = xfa.resolveNode("form1.summary"),
  vPageStart = xfa.layout.absPage(vObj),
  vPageEnd = vPageStart + xfa.layout.absPageSpan(vObj) - 1;
xfa.host.print(1, vPageStart.toString(), vPageEnd.toString(), 0, 0, 0, 0, 0);
I have tried to amalgamate both instructions into one button but this doesn't work:
form1.summary.Button1[0]::click - (JavaScript, client)
  this.resolveNode("form1.summary.info1a").presence = "hidden";
this.resolveNode("form1.summary.info1b").presence = "hidden";
this.resolveNode("form1.summary.info1c").presence = "hidden";
var vObj = xfa.resolveNode("form1.summary"),
  vPageStart = xfa.layout.absPage(vObj),
  vPageEnd = vPageStart + xfa.layout.absPageSpan(vObj) - 1;
xfa.host.print(1, vPageStart.toString(), vPageEnd.toString(), 0, 0, 0, 0, 0);
can anyone help?

    Whenever I save a form as PDF and open it with Reader or Acrobat I get to see the console.
    But never when I view the form in Designer preview!
    That used to work until I installed Reader X.
    Same as you I checked all configurations in Reader and Acrobat: all perfect.
    I really do hope that someone finds a solution for this.

  • Page body not displaying in Design view

    Using CS3, I am trying to edit a page in Design view, however the page does not appear.
    http://www.angeleyesgps.com/index2.html
    The page can be found here, showing the body content appearing, showing it is not commented out.
    As you scroll down the page, you will see a Design view screenshot in CS3 (attached to this posting), showing what I am seeing.
    Cannot find anything in the code causing this to happen. All other pages appear fine, with body content appearing.
    Sure appreciate your help on this!
    Mark

    Your table structure is completely messed up.  You have tables nested inside of cells and inside of tables... it's a real mess I'm afraid.  Because you don't have matching pairs of tags for either tables or cells that correspond, the page isn't showing up in Design view.
    I think you need to start again with the table structure -and make sure you nest them correctly.
    Also, not sure why you have the content within a form tag... (just under the body - and then the corresponding closing form tag at the end of the document.
    <body leftmargin="0" topmargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" onLoad="start();" style="background-color:#1b140e">
    <form name="form1" method="post" action="">

  • 124 pages of corrupted .plist files for Pages/Numbers

    Computer has been very slow and Pages/Numbers will not allow trashed files to be deleted unless the program is open. Least of my concerns. Just ran Disk Warrior and did a file check and got 124 pages of nothing but corrupted .plist files for Pages and Numbers. All references to files look like this, with very slight variations (can't post 124 pages here):
    (hard drive)/com.apple.documentVersions/
    3C712EC1-735C-406C-9BE6-D1D4A1ADD5B8.pages/Metadata/
    All of the errors are in com.apple.documentVersions.
    Not at ease with deleting all of these .plist files, but these corrupted files are really affecting iMac's performance. iWork updates have been through App Store, don't have original disk to reinstall. What to do?

    Sometimes, DiskWarrior simply doesn't know what certain files are, or what to do with them, and tells you they are corrupt. What I would have expected it to find is (hard drive)/.DocumentRevisions-V100 folder, and not what you posted, which has never existed on my OS X machines with Pages/Numbers of any version.
    Presumeably, and before you ran DiskWarrior, you booted into Recovery mode and performed 1) verify/repair permissions, 2) verify Disk, and 3) a Safe Boot mode procedure.
    I have not updated Disk Warrior for Mavericks compatibility yet. The only time I have used it, was to rebuild the File Directory Structure database, and then only after that database shows over 10% fragmentation. This isn't often.
    There are a number of reasons your machine may be slow. See if it has improved after Disk Utility and a Safe Boot. If it continues to be sluggish, you should repost in the Mavericks Discussions within Mac OS & System Software community. This will get more eyes on your performance issues.
    You may wish to ensure that you have a good backup of important data too.

  • Display Page numbers in ALV

    Hi,
    I would like to know how to display page numbers in an ALv display(both grid display and list display).I tried to use the system variable sy-pagno .But couldn't get the desired output.

    Hi,
    I don't think you will be able to display page numbers in case of ALV Grid, unless you are in the list view. In case you are using the ALV Grid, you have to implement the top_of_page method (an event handler) for ALV Grid class and write the page number there. The page numbers will be displayed once you choose the list view.
    Hope this helps.

  • Livecycle Designer ES 8.2 Crashing When Trying to Add Elements

    I've created a form and hit a roadblock.
    The form is 17 pages long and contains 151 elements.
    When attempting to add another element the application shows not responding and then eventually crashes.  Worse yet, it corrupts the PDF.  The byte count for the file goes from around 280KB to 0KB.  When I attempt to open the file using LC after recovering from the crash, the file is blank (obviously).
    After restoring the files from tape, I attempted to work-around this issue by splitting the form into separate smaller parts and then combining the parts in Acrobat Pro, but the add more pages features is grayed out and I can combine the PDFs.
    This is extremely frustrating and hugely limits my ability to create forms.
    PC Specs:
    Intel Xeon 1.86GHz
    4GB RAM
    Windows XP Pro SP3 32-bit
    ...just in case someone says it's a machine issue. 
    Here's the file:  <removed>
    UPDATE **** UPDATE **** UPDATE
    After speaking with one of my developers, we discovered that there is a horrible bug which loops a tag in the XML.
    Here is the start of the problem:
    <field name="DropDownList1" y="9.525mm" x="3.175mm" w="62mm" h="9mm">
                <ui>
                   <choiceList>
                      <border>
                         <?templateDesigner StyleID aped3?>
    The <?templateDesigner StyleID aped3?> tag then runs on for around 800,000 lines of code.
    This apparently is a well known issue.  You can read more about the problem and the fix here:
    http://acrobatusers.com/forum/forms-livecycle-designer/potential-bugs-livecycle-designer-s cript-editor-crashes-lcd
    I opened the file in Textpad and deleted the tag and all its brethren.
    Adobe: Is there a patch for this?

    Hi,<br />I have had the same problem occur again. This time I looked at the files inside the 8.2 subdirectory to see if I could find the speciic one that is behind this problem. Look inside the following path,<br /><br />C:\Documents and Settings\<your ID>\Application Data\Adobe\Designer\8.2<br /><br />find the LinguisticOptions.xml and the InspectorEN178.xml.<br />One of these or both are getting corrupted. When I delete them the program works again. It might be a good idea to back these up if you want to keep your preferences. You can then drop these back into this subdirectory when they become corrupted again. That way you do not have to delete them completely.<br />I hope adobe will fix this problem for good.<br /><br />Steve

  • Insert/Delete a page in LiveCycle Designer disabled

    I am working with an 8 page form and am trying to delete the last page on the file, however when I try the 'Delete Page' option is disabled or 'greyed out'. I am using Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.05.2... and created the form in LiveCycle. It also won't give me the option to insert a page (also a form created in livecycle designer). Anyone have any ideas or seen this problem before? I am going through everything trying to figure out what the issue is.
    Thanks in advance.

    Can you post your form so it can be looked at?
    You can upload it to acrobat.com using these steps:
    1) goto acrobat.com website
    2) login with your Adobe login/password.
    3) In Actions you will find Upload. Select your form and upload.
    4) After uploading, select form name in All Files section and right click and select share.
    5) Check the checkbox "Allow anyone with a link to view this document".
    6) Copy the URL link and post it in the forum.
    Thanks

  • LiveCycle Designer 8 doesn't start/crashes

    I just bought Acrobat Professional 8 and was hoping to work with the LiveCycle Designer to create some PDF forms, but unfortunately the designer doesn't start at all from the start menu. A splash screen appears and the disappears again. I finally managed to open it through Acrobat, but then it feels very buggy. It crashes on me every couple of minutes and some things, like adding a barcode doesn't work at all. I'm using Windows XP professional. I tried reinstalling the whole thing, but that didn't help. It's kind of frustrating to pay hundreds of euro's and then not being able to do my work. Is there anybody out there who has an idea what could be the cause of the problem?

    I hade the same problem. My solution that works every time for me...
    start adobe pro then select to design a new form in the forms menu. It will let you select all the features that you want on a form so I just keep hitting OK all the way through (doesn't matter what it says, this form will never be saved). It will then open Livecyle with the new "dummy" form. Once it is open, I can open any of the other forms I need to work on. It adds 1+ minute of time to do the extra step but I just don't have more hours to spend on experimenting with other things.
    Good luck

    (For those looking for how to trash prefs, just go to Users/XXXYOUR_LOGIN_NAMEXXX/Library

  • Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8 - Crash (Memory could not be "written")

    I was using Adobe LiveCycle Designer 7.1 for the past half year. All of a sudden, it started to crash - Memory could not be "written".
    During that period I heard quite a lot about Adobe's bugs, so I decided to install Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.0 hoping to see improvement over software stability and compatibility.
    Of course I uninstalled the older verion, deleted the older file folders then did a clean-install of 8.0
    Interesting enough, the first time I open up Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8, everything went normal. Without doing anything, I closed it then tryied to re-open it, the splash screen shows up then nothing happens - not a single error message.
    Then I tried the following:
    1. restarted PC. Tried the open-close-reopen squence, same thing happened.
    2. uninstalled 8.0, deleted the folders, reinstalled 8.0. open-close-reopen, same thing happed.
    2. uninstalled 8.0, deleted the folders, reinstalled 7.1. Open LiveCycle Designer 7.1 -> Crash (Memory could not be "written")
    Findings:
    1. the errors are consistent
    2. it can open ONLY once, is this an activation issue? is there a corrupted file?

    Well when I tried to open the sample project I got this error:
    "Open project was cancelled or the application was unable to load database for "C:\PROGRAM FILES\Adobe\Adobe RoboHelp 8\RoboHTML\Samples\en_US\CCC\CCC.cpd""
    I couldn't delete the CPD file because this client has locked down the computer to the point where I cannot do anything more than view the files in the program folder. Without having the ability to write to the program files folder is it possible this is an issue? Or is it ok that I do all the creating content in the RoboHelp Project on the C drive?
    It allowed me to copy the Sample folder to the RoboHelp Project folder on the C drive. I deleted the CPD file then opened it without a problem.  I created a topic and added some content, but nothing happened. When RH8 crashed before there was no rhyme or reason and I cannot duplicate the error. Just seems very sponataneous.
    I need to finish the style guide project today, but I will also play with the sample folder and see if (1) it happens again and (2) if I can figure out how to duplicate the error consistently. The first 2 times I had been in the new topic and wrote several paragraphs without saving it. Can't remember how long from topic creation to crash. And I can't remember if it crashed on trying to save or not, but I'm pretty sure I had not tried to save prior to the crash.

  • Pages & Numbers crashes when opening a document ,no documents found when iCloud is turned off

    I have just upgraded my iPad to IOS7 and my MacBook Pro to mavericks running the latest iTunes and also update pages and numbers.both crash when old documents are opened and the programs will only function if iCloud is switched off in settings but only when creating new documents .I have upgraded for more storage space and have 6GB free, many of my documents are invoices and are now unavailable to me so the situation is becoming quite desperate.
    Any help would be useful .

    Hi Amy
    Welcome to the forum.
    There are a few bugs in Snow Leopard.
    You need to upgrade using the downloadable Combo OSX 10.6.2 upgrade.
    http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosxv1062updatecomb o.html
    Do not upgrade using Software upgrade.
    The principle cause is a damaged Hoeffler Text font.
