Livecycle Designer ES 8.2 win32 exception

I installed the Adobe 9 pro update with the Livecycle designer ES 8.2.
Initially it worked and I created some documents, but it is now failing with the following error
"An unhandled win32 exception occurred in FormDesigner.exe[2888]."
I get this error even if I open up a new form. It occurs when the operation status window says it is loading the new document. The program crashes before a new document is loaded on the screen.
I have tried uninstalling Livecycle and repairing Acrobat. There is no improvement.
Does anyone have any ideas on what to try next?
Thanks,
Steve

Hi, 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, C:\Documents and Settings\<your ID>\Application Data\Adobe\Designer\8.2 find the LinguisticOptions.xml and the InspectorEN178.xml. 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. I hope adobe will fix this problem for good. Steve

LiveCycle has unhandled win32 exception

Hi, Everybody.
LiveCycle was running fine when I logged out last night. This morning opening last nights file produced a "unhandled win32 exception occurred in FormDesigner.exe[5864]. and asked if I wanted to debug.
When I selected NO, LiveCycle shut down.
When I select yes, the message from Visual Studio was First-chance exception at 0x004a50cb in FormDesigner.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x00000000
I'm running XP Professional x64 Edition SP2. There should have been no updates overnight, but after LiveCycle didn't work I rebooted and there were some updates.
Any one know whats going on here? I need this program!!
Thanks!
Kay

The program ran successfully when he first installed Windows 7, but that was a long time ago.
Here's what happened when he made the registry change and reloaded:

I'm trying to insert a simple table on a document but every time I try I get a pop-up that "Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES has encountered a problem and needs to close." When I looked into it a bit further it appears to be an issue of "an unhandled win32 exception in FormDesigner.exe"

Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES closes every time I open it :(

Hello all, I want to thank you beforehand for the help regarding this matter. I use Windows Vista and my Adobe LiveCycle Designer was working before but for the last week and a half or so I have not been able to get it to work! I have done scandisk/defrag/and have multiple software to keep my computer clean so I have taken those precautions beforehand. To the problem...:
My Adobe LiveCycle Designer opens up and it was working previously as mentioned, but when I try to open it by either opening or converting a form or creating a new form with a template, I am not able to as it gives me an error message and closes! It gives me an error message of "Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES has stopped working" and a screenshot of this is provided at the following link:
http://www.mediafire.com/imgbnc.php/bc59d422150595157c212a5b181313244g.jpg
I don't know what to do and wanted to see if I could solve this problem before I was forced to try to manually reinstall it so hopefully I don't have to go through that. I appreciate the help once again!

I am dealing with the same problem. I called Adobe technical support and spent hours to fix the problem but none worked. I tried to explain them the error might be caused by the Activation process but they just made me uninstall and install application several times.
When I start LiveCycle it gives the following error: adobe livecycle designer es has stopped working.
I start debugger to see what's going on and get the following exception: Unhandled exception at 0x773db663 in FormDesigner.exe: 0xC015000F: The activation context being deactivated is not the most recently activated one.
Does anyone know how to deactivate this product manually? Because deactivate menu is dimmed and I cannot deactivate product from the program. I believe if I can just remove activation info and activate it again this problem might disappear.
Thanks

Problem with expanding textfield in Adobe LiveCycle Designer

I've got an urgent problem with Adobe LiveCycle Designer and I really could use some help. The problem is that I'm trying to get my textfield expandable, but whatever I try, it's not working. What I'm trying to get done is that you can fill in a textfield, and when there is more text than the size of the field, the textfield expands to make the text fit in the field.
I tried a whole lot of things:
placing the textfield in a subform
expand to fit (height)
allow multiple lines
allow page breaks
flowed/positioned
etc.
The strange thing is, that no matter what I try to adjust, I can't change anything in the pagination tab. Maybe that is the problem, but I don't know what to do, to change that.
In the examples of Adobe itself (Purchase Form) is an example of a textfield that sort of behaves as I want it to, BUT the problem is that that textfield in the subform has to be triggered to appear by a button (add comments) and that is what I don't want. I want the textfield to be visible from the beginning. But in that example you CAN see the pagination tab and make changes in it.
I searched a lot in the Adobe Helpfiles of Designer, and I even bought and read/studied the book 'Creating Dynamic Forms with Adobe LiveCycle Designer', but still I'm not able to get this done.
Is there anyone who can help me?
Thanks in advance,
Sterre

I am creating my first .pdf with no training. I first converted a word doc of our form into a .pdf. Modified everything and thought I was the "bomb" for figuring it out. Then I tried to use the form and where I had "allowed multiple lines" I realized that it would allow that but not display it or print it except for what was showing.
In researching for a solution, this site said to use "expand to fit". After much frustration I realized that this feature is only available if you created the form from scratch in adobe.
I have figured out, somewhat, how to create the form and get the field to move with the text but I need the entire form to adjust to the input. Can't have one specific field expand into the rest of the form.
I did some more research on this site, and it looks like the solution has something to do with 'subforms'. No idea what to do.
If anyone knows if there is a way to do this with a converted doc (since I already have that completed) I would GREATLY appreciate it. If it isn't possible, could someone walk me through how to do it or provide a reference for a "barney style" walk through?
Appreciate ANY assistance you can provide. THANKS! Guess I need to sign up for an Adobe Pro class. BTW I'm working on LiveCyle 8.0

Adobe Acrobat XI Freezes On LiveCycle Designer Form

Adobe Acrobat XI randomly freezes when filling out form fields in a specific PDF designed by myself in LiveCycle Designer 11.
The Windows Event Log sometimes records the following:
Error
11/8/2013 4:09:00 PM
Application Error
1000
(100)
"Faulting application name: Acrobat.exe, version: 11.0.4.63, time stamp: 0x52288928
Faulting module name: unknown, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x00000000
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Fault offset: 0x98006f09
Faulting process id: 0x380
Faulting application start time: 0x01cedcc3eebf5e0b

Faulting module path: unknown
Report Id: fcca7abe-48b9-11e3-b2d4-bc305bfc853b"
This indicates a hard crash, but when I've seen the issue it's the Acrobat window becoming grayed out and unresponsive (in the typical Windows fashion).
The staff member who regularly uses the PDF form indicates he's constantly having to deal with this. I've confirmed the freeze once while shadowing him for the day.
In terms of the PDF itself there's not much special-- four (4) pages filled with a lot of text, drop down and checkboxes, and three buttons that contain short snippets of code that likely never run.
What gives? How does Acrobat crash on such a straightforward PDF?

If this only happens for one users Acrobat you should try to uninstall and reinstall Acrobat.
There is a tool from Adobe Labs that will fix registry issues and other problems that can cause an unexspected app crash.

If you see the problem on different machines, it's worth to let someone check your form.

Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES

Hi,
I am just curious?
I have installed Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Extended
It came bundled with
Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES
Is this the full software of
Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES
or, just a part of the suite?
Do I need to download the Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES
From Adobe Downloads/Trial?
Or, have I already got the full suite installed?
Thank You
Phillip

If you've got acrobat pro extended - you've got Livecycle Designer ES too - Livecycle comes bundled with acrobat
If you mean, do you have the Livecycle Enterprise family (workbench, forms etc) if you have acrobat - then the answer is no - that's something that would make us all very happy though (except for adobe's finance controllers - the enterprise suite is very powerful but kinda pricey for SME's).
It's a great product - have fun

How to get LiveCycle Designer forms to ignore default text in fields when validating

Hiya,
I'm testing out Designer ES4 to build a simple form that's submitted via email.
Everything is working except for my text boxes... They are set up as required fields but because I've included default text with instructions, if you press submit without editing the fields they're not validating as empty and not throwing an error message.
I’ve been searching the forums all day for a fix, but I’m too new to understand where to put code etc. I’ve tried adding
'text{!=placeholder}' in the validation pattern box but that doesn’t work…
All I have is LiveCycle Designer and I’m on windows 7. Thanks for your help!

Thanks Bruce - this looks like exactly what I'm after!
I have a really noob question though - where do I go to enter code?! Below is a screenshot of what I'm looking at - can you please talk me through how to make your suggested changes?
Do I do it on the 'xml code' tab or somewhere else?

LiveCycle Designer 8.0 - Image Field Issue

I am using LiveCycle Designer 8. Ive inserted an image field and when I test it, the image doesnt scale proportionally even though the properties are set up correctly (Scale image proportionally). I understand that in order to get this to work, the files needs to be saved as a dynamic PDF, but I don't have an option of saving as a dynamic PDF. The only "Save as" type options I have are Adobe 7 (Static) PDF Form and Adobe 8 (Static) PDF Form. I also don't have an option of saving as a "dynamic" PDF in the Acrobat Save As window.
Is there a way to work around this or am I doing something wrong. The file was designed in InDesign, exported to a PDF and then brought into LiveCycle to insert text fields and an image field for a user to input their contact info and their logo. The 5 text fields work perfectly and the one image field works EXCEPT for scaling proportionally even though the properties for that field are set correctly.
I appreciate any assistance. Thanks!

Did you import the file using "Create an Interactive Form with Fixed Pages" as your selection on the Import dialog? If so, this brings in the original InDesign PDF as "artwork" (a background layer) on which your form fields are placed. This document can't be dynamic. That might be the issue.

Controlling XML output Livecycle Designer 8.0

Hello.
I am new to XML and somewhat new to LiveCycle Designer, however I have acclimated rather well.
Here is what I want to do:
1) Create a PDF fill-in-form (including various fields...text, numeric, radio buttons, and some FormCalc functions)
2) Create a Submit button that emails an XML file to the form administrator
3) Use MS Excel to import XML files into pre-mapped fields
Basically, I do not have server database support, and this is the best workaround (and most functional) I could come up with.
After mapping fields in Excel, I exported the *.xsd and created a new data connection within LiveCycle. Then, I linked the schema fields with the bindings - corrected any errors, and have tested the form (form1). I made the submit button - that's all good, too. When I import the XML into Excel - that's where I have a problem, and it's not an issue with Excel to my knowledge, but rather how the form generates the XML output.
For example, I have 25 fields that will be outputted via XML. My PDF form consists of 4 pages (8.5" x 11"). When I created the form and got to the end of the page, I "inserted new page" and went on my merry way. When I import the XML, Excel properly maps the fields, however, it does not import the info to a single row. What I have discovered is that since my PDF form consists of 4 pages (each bound to "sheet[*]"), the XML output looks like the following:
Example of the XML output from my form:
<form1>
<sheet>
<submissionID xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
>743</submissionID>
<reviewerID xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
>234</reviewerID>
<date xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
>24/01/2008</date>
</sheet>
<sheet>
<tag1>input</tag1>
<tag2>input</tag2>
</sheet>
</form1>
Wherever there is a "<form>" tag (hence a new page in my PDF document), Excel puts that data on a new column. All fields within form1 are imported and mapped to the correct field, however importing a single XML file will occur on 4 rows.
I bound each "page" as "sheet[*]" mostly because that is the only way I knew how to use FormCalc to do calculations from fields that occur at different places throughout the document.
So, I have tried to be as clear as possible, and would like suggestions/help as how to control the XML output from a LiveCycle document. If I am to modify the outputted XML and remove the multiple instances of <sheet> and </sheet> then Excel imports the data just fine and on a single row.
I would love some help on this rather specific problem. I guess it's a very basic issue that someone with experience could help.
Thank you so much!!
Jim

I have a vital form that clients fill out, which is passed to many people in the company along the workflow. The form is a Planner and we have in the following PDF, Word Doc..
Well before, the Planner.pdf was originally created in Word, since most people have access to Word.. but evolved to a PDF form created from the Word Doc via Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.0 w/ User Rights enabled so that the form could be filled out and saved using Adobe Reader.. which was a step better than Word.. being that it is free. But this needed to be easier and more to the point b/c some clients don't particularly like installing the latest version of Reader, even if you provide them the link. Nor do they like saving the form, filling the form, and attaching the form to send back.
My goal is to have the client fill an HTML version of the form, submit and be done with it, but everyone in the workflow be able to easily receive the filled Planner as a PDF form.
So some months ago I ran into this post Chris Trip, "Populate Livecycle PDF from mySQL database using PHP" #8, 22 Sep 2007 4:37 pm
which uses the command line Win32 pdftk.exe to merge an FDF file into an existing PDF on the remote server, and serve this to whoever.
My problem was with shared hosting and having the ability to use the Win32 pdftk.exe along with PHP which is predominantly used on Linux boxes. And we used a Linux box.
so i created the following unorthodox method, which a client fills the HTML version of the Planner, all field values are INSERTED into a table in MySQL DB, I and all filled planners that have been filled by clients to date can be viewed from a repository page where an XML file is served up of the corresponding client, but someone would have to have Acrobat Professional, to import the form data from the XML file into a blank form.. altoughh this is simple for me.. I have the PHP file already created so that when a Planner is filled and client submits. >> the an email is sent to me with a table row from the repository of the client name, #, email, and a link to d-load the XML file,
But I also have the PHP files created so that the Planner can be sent to by email to various people in the workflow with certain fileds ommitted they they do not need to see, but instead of the XML file beiong served up i need the filled PDF Planner to be served.
I can do this locally with ease on a testing server, but I am currently trying to use another host that uses cross-platform compatibility so i can use PHP and the pdftk.exe to achieve this, as that is why I am having to serve up an XML file b/c we use a Linux server for our website, and cant execute the exe.
Now that I am testing the other server (cross-platform host), just to use them to do the PDF handling (and it's only $5 per month) I am having problems with getting READ, WRITE, EXECUTE permissions..
Si guess a good question to ask is can PHP do the same procedure as the pdftk.exe, and i can eleminate it.
or how in the heck can i get this data from the DB into a blank PDF form, like i have described??

Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8 Beginner

I am very much new to adobe form design tools. Now my company wants me to develop an eForms system using Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.
The requirements are like this
All pdf forms will be saved in the file server.
Users can enter data directly into the fields of the form.
The form can capture data the user enters, and provide interactive feedback such as when an employee enter his roll number his department should be filled automatically in the form.ie form provide dynamic data
The form should be able to process the user data directly to a database.
Can anybody give some good reference so that I can start the project?
Thanks in advance,

Adobe LiveCycle Designer License terms and conditions

Hello Guys,
I am aware that Adobe LiveCycle Designer is available on SAP market place and following are the notes which has information about it.
962763 Adobe LiveCycle Designer 7.1 Installation
1121176 - Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.0 - Installation
But is there anything in writing who can download this software (ADS available in landscape ) and how should not ? (ADS not available). Or is it available to anyone who has SAP installation. I am looking for terms and conditions to use this product which is provided by SAP.

Hello, you can install it as a part of SAP gui, so I guess there is no extra licence needed except the one for running SAP gui. You cannot produce anything "immediately useful" with LCD (no Reader Right can be included as in the Acrobat which is paid). So I don´t expect any problems with the licence. BTW this is the first time somebody asks about that and there are like tousands of people using this software:)) Otto
