Limit the amount of copies that can be printed

Is there a way to limit the number of copies that can be printed of a pdf from inside the form in LiveCycle? I would like clients to only be able to print  only two copies of a form with Adobe Reader. How can I do this?

This should be doable, but not very pretty...
First, put a text-field on the form, and make it hidden with a defaullt value of 0;
in pre-print, check if the value of the hidden field is >= the limit, if so set
xfa.event.cancelAction = 1
that will prevent the print dialog from even showing.
if the value of the hidden field is < the limit, add one to the value of the field.
That should do it. If you need a hand with the actual code, just let me know.

(limitations: if the user doesn't save the changes, the hidden field will remain at 0... as such, you may have to script the docClose event to trigger a save. The issue with this is that the user will be stuck with any changes made, regardless of whether they want to keep changes.. Like I said, it's not pretty. You could go one step further and save the state of all fields on open/save, then restore those values on close, except for the hidden field before triggering a save... As you can see, this can get complicated fast....)

  • When I sync my iphone 4S using iTunes it only syncs 8.5GB of music, not the entore library as specified.  Is there a capcity default limit of the amount of storage that can be used for music and if so how do I change it?

    The only limit is that of the device. No restrictions on how much of it you can use for music. Is part of your music library unchecked?

  • Limit the amount of tasks that a user can claim

    I have a custom worklist and I need to develop a requirement for not allowing the users to claim more than one task at a time. Does the Worklist API have something to limit the amount of tasks that a user can claim at a time?.
    Thanks in advance.

    Apparently the Family Base add-on (https://my.verizonwireless.com/vzw/nos/safeguards/SafeguardProductDetails.action?productName=familybase) from Verizon will allow you to set limits on how much data a particular device can consume.  I think it is free for the first 3 months (not sure) after that it will cost $5 per month.  I have heard rumors though that it does not work well with iPhones???

  • Is there any limit on the amount of data that can be read using DB Adpater?

    We are trying to read large amount of data using "Select" of DB Adapter. I wanted to know if there is any limit to amount of records that can be returned in 1 message?
    We have tried for 30K so far and no issues - but any clues on the threshold?

    Hmmm...I dont think there is a restriction for reading data from tables.
    I have fetched more than 65k data and it ran successfully.

    How do I delete excess email messages from my iPhone.  There are 300 messages listed, and every time I delete some, more are added from old messages.  How do I limit the number of messages that can appear on my phone?  How can I delete messages in bulk,

    You can't.
    All photos transferred from your computer are stored in the Photo Library. The photos in the album or albums below are not duplicates - they include a pointer to the original photos stored in the Photo Library. This way you can view the photos in a particular album only by selecting the album, or you can view all photos available in all albums by selecting Photo Library.
    Just as with an iTunes playlist. A song cannot be in an iTunes playlist unless the song is in the main iTunes library. Placing a song in a playlist does not duplicate the song. Remove the main iTunes library or the songs from the main iTunes library that are in a playlist and the songs will no longer be in the playlist either. This way you can listen to the songs in the playlist only by selecting the playlist, or all songs in your entire iTunes library by selecting Music under Library in the iTunes source list.
    The same with iPhoto on a Mac. A photo cannot be in an in iPhoto Event or Album unless the photo is in the main iPhoto library. Placing a photo in an Event or Album does not duplicate the photo. This way you can view the photos in an iPhoto Event or Album only by selecting the Event or Album, or all photos in all Events or Albums.

  • Is there a limit to amount of code that can be added to the HTML Header?

    I've got several javascript functions in the HTML Header section of the page attributes. I recently added another function and now receive an HTTP 404 Not Found error at runtime when navigating to the page. When I remove the function the error is gone. I don't think there is anything wrong with the function because even when I copy and rename an existing working function, this error occurs...as if I've exceeded some size limit. Any ideas?

    I now have a better understanding after reading this thread: Javascript as static file or on filesystem?
    As the post indicates, there are essentially two ways of including a .js file:
    1) upload as static file to the workspace or application and refer to it using the #APP_IMAGES# or #WORKSPACE_IMAGES# tag.
    2) put it on the webserver as a file on the filesystem under the images directory and refer to it using the #IMAGE_PREFIX# tag.
    For now (since I don't have permissions to the file server directory) I have created a .js file and uploaded it as a static file in Shared Components. I referenced the file as below, but when I go the page at runtime, none of my functions are being utilized. Is it because the web server is not using this static file yet because of caching? Does it need to be restarted in order to start using the uploaded js file?
    <script type="text/javascript" src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#apex_selection_criteria_page.js">

  • Any way to limit the amount of songs..

    Hi,
    I have an iPod mini and a nano and I'd like to use them both on the same system. I know the mini holds more songs than my 2gb nano so I was wondering if there was a way to limit the amount of songs that I can put into iTunes so I can have an equal amount of songs on both iPods, up to the 500 limit of the nano or would I just have to create seperate playlists? Thanks.

    Making a few Smart playlists can help you solve the problem.
    You can limit the number of songs, MB, GB etc. by checking 'limit to'.
    Hope this helps.

  • Auto claim a Task in the Worklist and limit the amount of assings per user

    Hi, I have two questions:
    1) Is there a way to implement "auto claim" in the worklist? I need to assign the task to the logged user as soon as the task is opened by the user.
    2) Is there a way to limit the amount of tasks that the user claims? I need to avoid the situation of a user claiming more than one task. In other words, I need that "If a user claims a task, he MUST release or action it before claiming another task"
    Thanks in advance,

    I'm working with 11g

    Ok, I understand your use case for question 1. I actually have this same problem I have been trying to solve for a couple of weeks and haven't found a solution. My use case is slightly different. I have to assign to a group, but in some cases, I know which user in the group the task should be assigned to. However, the requirement is that I assign to the group. So I am trying to figure out how to use the routeTask method of the task service to route the task to the user after the task has already been created and assigned to the group. Not sure yet if that works. I have an SR open with Oracle Support. In your case, it sounds like you want the first member of the assigneeGroup who looks at the task to become the acquiredBy user. I would assume you would need to use routeTask in the Workflow API (in my case, I am using routeTask from BPEL).
    On the second question, I doubt that you will find any out-of-box mechanism to do this. There are the three workload balancing rules built into workflow API and available in the worklist application - round robin, least busy, and most productive. But none of those will fit your requirement. However, supposedly you should be able to create your own algorithm. I don't know how to do this, but there should be some place in the documentation that tells you how to do it.

  • How can I limit the amount of space on a Time Capsule used by Time Machine?

    I know that you cannot partition a Time Capsule drive.  However, I was wondering about other options for limiting the amount of space used by Time Machine so that I can use the rest of the space for other purposes.
    I heard something about creating a disk image on the Time Capsule to limit the amount of space used by Time Machine.  If I create a disk image, would TM just use all the space that's not part of the disk image?  How do I access the disk image part?  Can I manually drag and drop files to it from my Mac like any other external drive?  Could I set up the disk image part to work with a Windows computer?
    I've also heard things about modifying sparsebundles which I don't know anything about.  How does this work?  What happens to the space that is not part of the TM sparsebundle?  How do I access it?  Can I manually drag and drop files to it from my Mac like any other external drive?  Could I set up the extra space to work with a Windows computer?

    Some other things to make note of:
    Some disk image formats have a maximum size and only use that size after they have had to expand to actually hold that much data. Make sure you are not using this type of image so you can guarantee the space is reserved. Sparse bundles are like this. I haven't read up on the sparse bundle trick, but I assume it's something to do with setting a maximum size for it.
    When you open up the Time Capsule disk, you will first be looking at the normal storage space. When you create an image, there will be a file you click on that mounts another drive that uses space on the Time Capsule. This shows up as just one file unless you open it to see it's contents.

  • Can you limit the amount of data accessed per user on an AirPort Extreme?

    Can you limit the amount of data accessed per user on an AirPort Extreme?

    Your question was whether the AirPort Extreme is able to establish data limits per user.
    If you add another router that has this type of capability or install software on another router, then you will be able to establish data limits for each user. The AirPort Extreme will have no control over this.

  • Photoshop can not print the maximum amount of data that can be spooled to a PostScript printer is 2G

    Hi all,
    This is the first time I've worked with the .psb (large format) size and I have gone to print a PDF of the file and I get the message:
    "photoshop can not print this document because the document is too large. The maximum amount of data that can been spooled to a PostScript printer is 2GB".
    The file itself is a 2700x1570mm 300dpi flatten .psb image that is 500mb in size.
    Not sure how I can get around this, where abouts do I see the image size information that is being spooled?
    Any help would be great

    There's no easy way to see the size of the image that's being spooled, but 2G limit is uncompressed, 4 bytes per pixel (either RGBX where X is a padding byte, or CMYK, depending on the image / printer), times about 1.6 because the image data is sent in ASCII85 format rather than binary.
    With your image at over 100 inches at 300 dpi, you're also perilously close to the 32k limit on the pixels in any one dimension (31,900 by my calculations) that PostScript can handle.
    The limits are 32767 pixels in either dimension, and 2GB of data total. The data that's sent at 4 bytes per pixel, and converted to ASCII85 so that it'll make it across any connection. ASCII85 gives about a 1.6 expansion factor, if I remember correctly.
    Do you really need a 10 foot image printed at 300 dpi? If not, changing down to 200 dpi will probably let this image print.

  • How to limit the number of items that a list control can hold?

    Hi,
    I am using a Flex3 List control for one of my projects.
    I add drag & drop functionality to it, so that i can drag & drop elements from one control to another.
    How to limit the number of items that a list control can hold / can be dropped in a list control ?
    - Sen.

    1. Listen for the dragdrop event on the control you are dragging onto.
    2. check the length of the items in the dataprovider - if it exceeds your maximum override the default drop action with e.preventDefault(); (assuming you used e for the event on the handler).

  • How do I limit the number of emails that show in my active mailbox?  There was a way in Settings on ios 6, but i can't find it in ios 7.

    How do I limit the number of emails that show in my active mailbox?  There was a way in Settings on ios 6, but i can't find it in ios 7.

    You need to delete your current hotmail account set up on your iphone.
    Once this has done click 'Add Account' and select the new 'outlook.com' tab.
    Set up your hotmail account again from scratch and this will then allow you to select how many weeks/months of emails you sync to your phone.
    Im not sure if anyone else had a similar problem to me prior to iOS 7, but if i deleted an email from my hotmail account on my iphone - it wouldnt sync with my actual hotmail account. So when i logged in online all the emails I had deleted on my phone would still be showing as unread.
    But by setting the account up as above, they now sync perfectly.
    Well for me anyway

  • Does iWeb place a limit on the size of jpeg that can be uploaded?  I'm putting large MB jpegs on site and they are being compressed down to kp.  My site is not doing this.

    Does iWeb place a limit on size of jpeg that can be uploaded to server?  I'm placing large mb jpeg files and they are showing up on web as kb files.  My provider does not put any size limit on what I upload.  Is it iWeb?

    Here is the problem, I've done this, set the right settings in iWeb as indicated above and yet the images are still small images.  Is there a cache in iWeb that may need to be cleaned out or a setting somewhere messing me up. 
    I normally put web size images however for this one album I need them to be full size.
    Any other help full suggestions? I appreciate all your help.  I'm guessing there is something simple I'm missing.
