Link in PDF doenst open data from fileserver [Intranet]

Hello Addobe Community,
english is not my native language, I'm sry for all the misstakes.
I createt a PDF File with a Link \\fileserver\folder\file.xls, i save everything open the PDF and it works.
Then i upload the pdf to our intranet (same server then fileserver, just html and css intranet, nothing special) open the pdf (its opend in the browser by the acrobat plugin), klicking on the link and its shown like http://intranet.xxx.corp/fileserver/folder/file.xls. FILE NOT FOUND. (Weblinkes are opend correctly)
So how can i manage that the Link is opend correcly, in the browser plugin.
I hope you can help me
Best wishes from Germany

Pardon me, but this to me looks like tool deficiency,
No, it isn't. You just don't understand how it works (no offense). The PDF was saved with AI editing capabilities and when present, AI favors this part of the PDF file over the native PDF data. Hence you run into trouble. Had whoever sent you the file just sent a flattened PDF, AI would open it at the cost of possibly creating a mess on other ends. You simply cannot have both. The fault is with the workflow and how the fiels were created in the first place. Similarly, copy&pasting content from Acrobat to otehr programs such as you do is working perfectly correct. Transparency handling is diffewrent between programs and additionally, color space conversion issues may figure in. all Acrobat ever knows and cares about is the flattened result, which is just the baked appearance, not something meant for extensive editing. So to cut a long story short: Feel free to employ the patching method involvin Acro, PS and AI that you already described yourself, but if you ask me, the smarter thing to do would simply be to request that missing PNG...

Prepopulating PDF forms with data from XML file

How can I get a PDF form to open pre-populated with data from an XML file automatically? I've been using Adobe LifeCycle Designer 8.0 and there doesn't seem to be a way to do it. The closest I came was to use the ImportData method, but that only lets you specify a data file if the form is signed (certified), which these aren't and don't need to be because we're using them on an internal company web page. ImportData works if there is no file name, but then the user has to navigate to and select the correct file, which we can't rely on our users to do.
I've researched this problem for days on this and other websites and haven't found an answer (one Adobe advisor suggested purchasing LifeCycle Forms, which is not an option because it's a $10,000 software package and the company wouldn't authorize a purchase that steep). We will buy a less-expensive option if there is one. We'll even hire a consultant if we can find one to who can design a supportable solution. All suggestions will be much appreciated.

Hi Sharon
The easiest way is:
- Open your PDF form within Acrobat
- From the File menu, import the XML form data into the form
- From the File menu, use Save As... to save the file with a new name.
The new PDF will be identical to the original one, but will have the data embedded in it. Voila.
If you want the same form to pre-populate with different XML files depending on the circumstances, or if you're generating the XML on the fly, then things get more complicated. (And more expensive.) As your consultant said, LiveCycle Forms is one option, but it is expensive (actually even more than 10K). There are other options, including Cold Fusion, custom servlets, etc.

How to populate Adobe LiveCycle Designer generated PDF Forms with data from Database in Windows app

Hi
I have a PDF template designed in Adobe LiveCycle Designer. This template has form fields which needs to be filled with data programmatically. I am using windows application in C#.Net 2005 in which I want to retrieve data from database and merge this data into PDF form in respective fields.
How this can be achieved?
I searched a lot & I found that we can process the XDP file generated from PDF to acheive this. I created the XDP file out of the PDF template created in designer. But I don't know how to merge data from database into that XDP file in respective fields and again convert this XDP file back to PDF programmatically. Can anybody help me ? This is urgent.
Thanks in advance.

hi,
there are some specific restrictions in downloading data in alv.
i.e you cannot have morethan 1024 characters that can be downloaded in single row.
so change your report columns accordingly.

Populate PDF template with data from another form

Hi all, it's been a while since I've been here. I'm not a LC pro by any stretch, but I've been working on a personal project which I hope will someday result in a small business. The idea is simple: a client fills out a custom form in Acrobat Reader which I've created in LC Designer. Upon completion, they email the pdf (or XDF, or XML, or E4X or whatever might be possible, I'm not even sure!) back to my website.
On my end... and this is hopefully automated... the data would be injected into a template PDF the client needs. This would then be sent back via email for them to print.
It's been over a year since I worked on this. Both the front end forms and the pdf templates are built, but the interaction between receiving the client data and populating the template form never got worked out.
Could anyone provide me with a clue as to what this workflow might look like?
Just to be clear, this application would be waaay too small to even think about going the Enterprise route. I'm "thinking" the automation part of it would be handled by some custom PHP coding, but that's another story.
Thanks!
Graham Calhoun

Thanks PMG.
Yes, I am wedded to the idea that I will only use Adobe PDF. The server component is a whole other story though. I understand the value of it, but as a small business, the idea of coughing up 60k is pretty much out of the question. Especially given that this form is a one of a kind, simple, time saver for my prospective clients.
From what I understand about LC, Acrobat and Reader, there are severe limitations imposed on saving form information in Reader. My clients need to be able to do that, as the form is quite extensive and needs to be revisited to be sure information is correct.
While any one user will probably not exceed the 500 submissions issue, hopefully there will be more than 500 users submitting 1 time!
We'll see if I can work around this issue.

How can I create PDFs dynamically using data from a DB?

Hello,
I am using ATG Dynamo to serve up pages for a B2C medical eCommerce site. I would like the ability to create PDF copies of a customer's invoice starting with a generic PDF template, then populating the document with the invoice-specific data and serving it to the customer.
Anyone know where I should start?
Thanks,
Jeff

Two options.
1. Formated objects, which uses xml and xslt to create a pdf file. Apache has an open source FOP engine for Java. This is fairly complicated, but doable however the technology is relatively immature. Inexpensive, moderately steep learning curve given no prior experience.
2. Third party application, my company uses Document Sciences, j2ee solution. Expensive, small learning curve.

Links within PDF document open linked PDF documents, but seem to replace original document rather than as additional documents.

Hello good people of the Adobe Community! I have a user of Adobe Reader XI that is having the following problem:
She is viewing, what we will call, the "main document," and this document has many links to other PDF documents. When she clicks on one of the links, the main document gets replaced by the new document. She then needs to re-open the main document to view it again. This happens with every link she clicks. I worked with the document in Reader XI and am able to open every link as an additional document, thus allowing me to immediately view both the main document and the new document.
My questions are:
Is there some setting in her Reader that I do not have turned on/off, which is why she is having this issue and I am not?
If not, then why is the user experiencing this "replacement" of the main document?
How do I help her resolve this issue?
Thank you for your time and attention.
Ben

I don't know if there is any way to configure this in the Reader preferences.
However, it can be decided in the document itself. I just created a test document (using Acrobat DC) with two links:
one to open in the same window
on the open in a new window
Both links do what I selected:
one opened in the same Reader window (replacing the original document)
the other one opened a new Reader window
When creating the links there was actually a third option: Window set by user preferences. However, I cannot seem to find such a user preference in Adobe Acrobat Reader. The default (in my case) seems to be to open in the same Reader window.

Pdf form for data from another form with data, xml or pdf, tables not expanding

Sir,
I am using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro and LifeCylce to do these forms. I have made several subforms for a Risk Assessment for the mission they fly. I have also made up another form with tables that would connect with each subform data. This form also will give me and others a % of the values received from the data to help us with seeing problem area towards Safety.
I am able to connect the data to the form from the Risk Forms but when I go and add another group of data it over writes the data that was already in the data collection form. The tables are dynamic and able to expand with the generated data but when I compile several Risk Forms, xml. data into one single data group, the receiving tables will not except this data. To compile the data I am in Acrobat and using the form-manage form data-merge data to spreadsheet than enter as a report that is xml. Still not working. I also tried to save the form, with data already in the tables, and then opened it again and add data to it, it will over write the existing data in the form. This form does work great with the generated data in LiveCycle.
Any suggestions???

Thanks Paul
Did as you said and for each subform binding tab made sure I have "Repeat subform for each data item" checkbox and still no change when I add the data.
I even tried to combine the xml data and that file just has the main page and not the data pages. just another problem that is happening.
Any other suggestions on this expanding tables and receive single forms one at a time.

Getting data from LC PDF vs. getting data from LC HTML

I've been rendering PDFs from LiveCycle and having the saved form data returned to my web server (not the LC server) as XML data. This has been working fine for a while. Recently I've started converting my PDFs to XDPs and rendering the XDPs as HTML. Now when the user clicks the "Save" button, instead of xml data I get a bunch of POST data. One of the fields is called "FSAPPLICATIONDATA_". Once I base 64 decode and gunzip this field, I get the XML data. Unlike the XML data that I get from a LC PDF, this XML doesn't have the field data that the user entered in it. The POST data contains the user-entered data in separate fields. What I really need, however, is what I was getting from the LC PDFs: the complete XML with the newly-entered form data in it.
Any idea how I can get this? Do I need to submit the HTML form to LC and have it give me the complete XML or something?
- Nathan Dawson

Hi all,
I made it work having in the wd context the same number of elements as the table rows in the form. That way the rows are read correctly.

Adobe reader x pdf files open slow from the internet

I am using Adobe Reader X Files for the internet open very slow, sometimes stall?

Sounds like the issue mentioned in this article PDF opens as gray screen in browser -- there is a fix in the article as well.

Opening Hyperlinks from PDF in a new browser Window

We have a web based (ASP.NET) tool to author HTML content. Authors can create/edit HTML content, preview, and save the file as PDF. A 3rd party component- abcpdf is used to convert HTML into PDF. The converted PDF form will be distributed to consumers.
The PDF typically contains Hyperlinks, text boxes and submit button.
Clicking the hyper link in PDF should open the HTML in a new browser instance. It should not hijack (overwrite or reuse) existing browser instance that may be active in users computer irrespective of browser setting. Changing the browser setting IE: Internet Option > Advanced > Reuse windows for launching shortcuts is not acceptable by users.
Please let us know the solution if any

Hi Sarah ,
You can right click on the link and choose properties and then in the actions tab you can select the desired action you want .
You will get a list of various actions specifying how and where do you want to open that link.
Try this and let us know how it goes.
