LiveCycle Designer 10 - PDF Vorschau deaktiviert

Obwohl nur Acrobat XI 11.10 installiert ist kann beim LiveCycle Designer 10 einfach die PDF-Vorschau nicht aktiviert werden. Sowohl Acrobat als auch der LiveCycle Designer wurden komplett deinstalliert und neu installiert. In der Registry wurden alle Adobe Einträge zum vorher installierten Reader deinstalliert. Auch möglich ältere Registry Einträge zum vorher installierten Acrobat 10 wurden gelöscht. Keine Chance ...
Es muss doch ggf. in der Registry einen Eintrag geben, woher der Designer erkennt, dass Acrobat installiert ist und er dann die PDF Vorschau wieder anzeigen kann. Hat jemand eine Idee ??
Die Ursache hängt möglicherweise mit dem IE 11 zusammen. Hier benötigt man (warum auch immer) der Reader um bspw. PDF-Dateien auf einer Webseite anzeigen zu lassen und nicht als Datei abzurufen. Zumindest hatten wir mal eine Einstellung, wo beide funktionierte - der Designer zeigte die PDF Vorschau an, Acrobat XI und Reader XI waren installiert und der Reader war im IE11 als AddInn aktiviert damit die Vorschau auf Webseiten funktionierte. Wir nutzen Win7 x64 als Betriebssystem. Leider haben wir keinen Systemwiederherstellungspunkt wo es mal funktionierte.

Ihr Lieben,
inzwischen habe ich auch gesehen, dass es ein Upgrade auf ES4 gibt. Das werden wir mal ausprobieren.
Unabhängig davon wird der LCD ES3 tatschlich nur mit Acrobat X Pro ausgeliefert. Mit Acrobat XI entfällt dieser Zusatz. Wer aber ein Upgrade von Acrobat X Pro auf Acrobat XI Pro erwirbt (wie wir) kann bekommt eine Seriennummer für den LCD ES3 (ich meine sogar, dass mit dem Acrobat X Pro noch der LCD ES2 geliefert wurde).
Unabhängig davon hat half die Diskussion bislang nicht den Kern des Problems zu finden (wie geschrieben, hatten wir nur eine Lösung mit der Reader im IE gefunden). Nun mussten wir noch feststellen, dass auch hier alte Office 2003 pdf'te Dokumente als Office 2010 gespeichert und pdf'te Dokumente auch nicht einfach mit dem LCD ES3 ersetzt werden können (bislang wurden bestehende Verknüpfungen über den XML-Code einfach nur kopiert). Solange keine bspw. mit dem Aktionsgenerator erzeugen Zusatzbefehle ergänzt wurden kann man einfach die Verknüpfungen kopieren und richtig platzieren - doch leider werden dabei nicht alle Codes übertragen ...
Offensichtlich scheinen die Probleme mit Office 2003 / 20010 und Adobe weiter zu bestehen und Lösungen nur durch Neuerstellungen zu erzielen ...

  • How can I write to a file from a livecycle designed PDF?

    I am producing a PDF in Livecycle designer and would like to write a sub-set of data from the document.
    I have tried methods such as exportData() but this exports everything which i don't need.
    I have seen another method which is to attach a file and write to that but ideally I'd just like to be able to create a new file.
    var data = xfa.data.nodes.item(0).nodes.item(1).saveXML()  var oFile = util.streamFromString(data , "utf-8");
    I would like to write oFile.
    Thanks in advance
    Edit:
    I would like to add that ideally the user would be presented with a save as dialog  box, so the can choose the location of where to save the xml data.

    <quote>
    when an oracle istance is created the services that support it are setup to 'log on as' the system (or operating system) account, this account has very few privileges and no acces to Window NT Domains. To access another Windows NT machine the OracleServiceXXXX must be setup to logon to the appropriate Windows NT Domain as a user who has acces to the required location for UTL_FILE.
    To change the default logon for the Oracle services go to (in Windows NT):
    Control Panel | Services | OracleServiceXXXX | startup | log on as; (where XXXX is the instance name)
    In Windows 2000, this would be:
    Control Panel | Administrative Tools | Services | OracleServiceXXX | Properties | Log on tab; (again XXXX is the instance name)
    Choose the This Account radio button, and then complete the appropriate domain login information. ONce the services have been setup as a user with the appropriate privileges, ther are two options dfor setting UTL_FILE_DIR:
    * Mapped Dirve: To use a mapped drive, the user that the service starts as must have setup a drive to match UTL_FILE_DIR and be logged onto the server when UTL_FILE is in use.
    * Universal Naming Convention: UNC is preferable to Mapped Drives because it does not require anyone to be logged on and utl_file_dir should be set to a name in the form \\<machine name>\<share name>\<path>
    You will of course need to stop and restart Oracle after changing the properties of the service.
    <\quote>
    I want to write some data to a (external) file. I have it working with the function UTL_FILE.
    My problem is I want to write to a file on a mapped drive (so a drive on a different machine). This is not working.
    Does anyone know a way to build this.

  • Adobe Acrobat aborts when using LiveCycle Designer PDF Preview tab.

    Whenever I try to use the PDF preview tab in LiveCycle Designer, Adobe Acrobat aborts.  I get the notice that "Adobe Acrobat 8.1 has encoutered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience.  Yadda, yadda, yadda,....." .
    The error signature is:

    Please increase your Buffer memeory for appalications.
    Before you go for a preview. try to kill the exisitign process of adobe reader.
    We need to see hte size of the XDP being generated.
    If it is over 20 0r 30 MB, we may need to bring it down to 2 - 4 MB.
    Again if the problem still persists, Re install the acrobat and try.
    Lastly, check if the same problem happens when you use a adobe reader 8.1.3 or 9.4 (stable versions).

  • LiveCycle Designer PDF file size

    Hello.
    I have the trial of LiveCycle Designer ES2 (v9.0.0.0.2009....) installed.  I created a seemingly simple PDF form, but the file size is over 1MB.  Is that "normal"?  It seems like it would/should only be a few hundred kb, if that.

    Hi Srini,
    That bug was fixed in an earlier version, so should not be a problem in ES2.
    One thing to bear in mind is that by default LC Designer embeds fonts into a form (see File > Form Properties > Save Options). This does not add too much to a form if you are using an efficient font like Myriad Pro. However if you use other fonts, like Times New Roman, then this can add several hundred kb.
    Also if you are using images in the form, then untick embed images in the Object > Field palette. The image will still be available when the user opens the form in Acrobat/Reader, but will be more efficient.
    Hope that helps,
    Niall

  • LiveCycle Designed pdf forms not working on Macs

    I have designed pdf forms with LiveCycle Designer, enabling Reading Rights. These forms have extensive interactive capabilities, including calculations, locking fields on demand, etc.
    They work perfectly on Windows, as long as the user has Adobe Reader 8 or 9. However, I discovered recently that they do not open properly on Macs, and that Mac users cannot fill all the fields, cannot use the buttons (such as jumping to another page), and that the calculations or "if" conditions do not perform at all.
    Is there an extension or program that Mac users can download in order to be able to use these forms? I would hate to have to change the 100 or so forms already done.
    Thanks.

    Hello,
    Thanks for coming back. I'm using the latest version (the 2014 update).
    I've sent you a screenshot of what it looks like when trying to convert to interactive pdf.
    Funny thing was it was working fine until a few tweaks and then decided to do its own thing.
    I've created loads of forms before through Indesign but this error is bizzare

  • LiveCycle Designer Pdf save

    Hi I have the following problem ... I have created a pdf document, and also added javasqript ... so I can not edit this document in acrobat
    LiveCycle must change the security settings ....  where can i edit the settings ???
    4 Example a picture of my problem i hope you can help me
    topmostSubform.Page1.Schaltfläche1::click - (JavaScript, client)
    var oDoc = event.target;

    Dein Screenshot zeigt eindeutig, dass das Formular in Adobe Reader geöffnet ist und nicht in Acrobat.
    Damit Du das mit dem Reader speichern kannst, musst Du es zuerst mit Acrobat öffnen und mit erweiterten Rechten abspeichern (Datei > Speicher als > PDF mit erweiterten Reader-Funktionen)

  • How do I create and auto-launch bookmarks in LiveCycle Designer?

    I've created a fillable form using Adobe Live 8 Pro, I distribute the form using Acrobat. I haven't found a way to create bookmarks in LiveCycle so I create them using Acrobat first before I distribute the form...Is there another way?
    The problem I'm running into with this approach is that I cannot auto-enable the bookmarks when the PDF is opened because File > Properties > Initial View is disabled.
    So given that I've created a form using Adobe Live, what do I have to do to get bookmarks to launch in the initial view?
    Does anyone out there know how to do this?
    thanks in advance.

    Hi Hoser117,
    Have you considered using a LiveCycle Designer PDF form?  LiveCycle Designer comes in the box with Acrobat 9 Pro.  Here's are links to some videos from acrobatusers.com that show how to create expandable/flowable tables and fields in a LiveCycle Designer PDF form-

  • Is it too much to ask that a Mac user can just OPEN and USE a PDF form created by LiveCycle Designer PC software?!?

    My problem is just that- I have created all my forms using LiveCycle Designer because it is easier to make the forms accessible to individuals with disabilities.  Apparently it doesn't make Mac users have access to the forms.  I've received complaints from Mac users that cannot complete or submit the forms that I created.  I'm not asking how to recreate using another software, I know how to do that.  I'm asking is there a work around to allow a Mac user to open a PDF form or even XML (bedded within an HTML page) on a Mac computer WITHOUT having to use bootcamp, parallels, etc. and be able to complete the form and submit, print or email it?????  I've exhausted all my knowledge on this thus far and I'm hoping to find something that will help.  So far all forums talk about how Mac users need to have a PC side to their computer.  Isn't there another way?
    I've attached an example form that we are no longer using (though still created exactly the same as the others)
    Thanks!

    Hi, as far as I can infer, that term means it's not loading any resources until needed, opposite of this...
    -bind_at_load
                     Sets a bit in the mach header of the resulting binary which tells dyld to bind all symbols                when the binary is loaded, rather than lazily.
    https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/ man1/ld.1.html
    Load resources lazily.
    You should never load a resource file until it is actually needed. Prefetching resource files may seem like a way to save time, but this practice actually slows down your app right away. In addition, if you end up not using the resource, loading it wastes memory for no good purpose.
    http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/iphone/conceptual/iphoneos programmingguide/PerformanceTuning/PerformanceTuning.html
    And, higher OS versionsare even worse with Bonjour/mDNSResponder, but might see this...

  • I am creating a form on LiveCycle Designer and I am trying to create a form that has a e-mail submit button.  When the butten is utilized it attaches the form to the e-mail in an plain text .xml format rather than the pdf format.  Is there a quick fix?

    Hi,
    You have the choice between xml or pdf, in later versions of designer you can choose with a dropdown on the email button Object palette, the "Submit As";
    In earlier version you had to edit the XML Source and change the format from xml to pdf (or vice-versa);

  • Why can't I 'place' a signature into a .pdf form created in LiveCycle Designer 9???

    Hi there,
    I have been pulling my hair out all afternoon!
    I have created a dynamic form in LiveCycle Designer 9 - saved it as a Dynamic XML Form - opened it in Acrobat X - saved it as Reader Extended PDF and Enabled Additional Features. My colleagues will then need to open it in Reader X and select the option to draw and place thier signature in the text field I have provided them with. When I open the form in Reader X and click on the SIGN tab I get the following error message:
    The security settings on this document prevent adding text and/or placing a signature on it from Adobe Reader. To fill and sign this document you need to print it out.
    I have looked for help on this issue everywhere, yet to no avail.
    I do not want to hear about using digital signatures or Echosign, We only want and need to have staff sign forms by drawing their signature.
    Please help!
    Thanks,
    Will

    Hi will,
    I am not aware of Reader Enabled PDF from Acrobat X.
    Have you tried enabling digital signature using Reader Extensions which comes with LiveCycle Server. viz http://I.P:Port/ReaderExtensions

  • Can I combine a form created in Livecycle Designer with a standard pdf to create a new document?

    I have a fillable form that I created with Livecycle Designer along with two standard pdf files.  When I try to combine in Acrobat Pro 10 it identifies the form with XML data and will not allow me to complete the process.  Thanks in advance for any help with this.

    No you cannot... this is one of the things my organization struggles with.  I love livecycle becuase of its dynamic form capabilities, but we have so many other pre-built pdfs in adobe pro that can not be merged with these forms.  It is truly frustrating!!!  wish i had a better answer for you.  Also from the book 'Creating Dynamic Forms with Adobe LiveCycle Designer' page 6... "The PDF files that Designer creates are structurally different than other PDF files...... LiveCycle Designer can edit a PDF form created in Acrobat, but Acrobat can not edit a PDF form created in Designer."  Likewise... XML pdfs do not merge with other pdfs. JoBeth

  • Why can't I import a .txt file to a PDF created in Livecycle Designer?

    I am trying to import data into a PDF, simple stuff like names and addresses. I've saved my spreadsheet as a tab delimited .txt file, but when i go to import data in the PDF, .txt files are not an option. Is there a setting in Livecycle or in Acrobat that I haven't found?

    Is there a way for me to import the data to a PDF created in LiveCycle designer?

  • Reader 11.0.07 does not display content of PDFs created with LiveCycle Designer ES 8.1

    We use some PDFs created with LiveCycle Designer ES 8.1 which do not show any content when opened with Reader 11.0.07, only a blank display area or erratic copies of the screen behind it. Documents look fine in print preview though and also print correctly. Tried to change various security or display settings, no effect. Tried other machines, different hardware, different OS versions (Win7, Win8), same effect on every single device with 11.0.07 installed.
    Any ideas, anyone?!?

    Hi,
    Not sure why you are resolving the node (??), also I would not be inclined to include a period in the object name (.), maybe this is why you are resolving the node.
    Also I don't see in the script where you are calling the instanceManager, in order to use the addInstance method.
    Having said that the problem may be in the File > Form Properties > Defaults tab:
    Check that Preserve script changes is set to Automatic.
    Lastly is the form Reader Enabled? It would need to be for users with Reader to save the changes, including new instances of a repeating element.

  • Is possible in acrobat reader fill in and save interactive PDF created with LiveCycle Designer?

    is possible in acrobat reader fill in and save interactive PDF created with LiveCycle Designer?

    Hi,
    Only if the form has been Reader Enabled before it is sent out to the user with Reader.
    There are two ways of Reader Enabling the form. One using Acrobat Standard v9 or Acrobat Professional v8 (both have license restrictions). The other is to use LC Reader Extensions ES2, which is a server product (additional costs).
    Some info here:
    http://www.assuredynamics.com/index.php/2010/11/using-livecycle-forms-in-acrobat-and-reade r/
    A search of the forums for "Reader Extensions" or "Reader Enable" will give more information.
    Hope that helps,
