Mailto changes when distributing form

There appears to be a bug in LC/Acrobat when distributing the form because Im creating a submit button with the mailto: to a specific address. Then, after distributing the form it changes that address to the email address set on my preferences!
It wasn't doing this a month ago! I have created several forms that work perfectly and suddenly it started doing this. I've tried this in 5 different computers/licences with the same result.
I raised a ticket and they helped me amend the form but still when I distribute it (I need the response file) it keeps changing the email address!
Any help would be most welcome!

i am having the same issure. It's driving me crazy. I setup a submit buttone with a mailto url. I distribute the form and the submit button email changes to the my preferences identity email.

Preventing Extend Features for Reader when distributing form

I am distributing a form created in LiveCycle and will have the form responses automatically tracked on an internal server. The distributed form is not sent out via email, but rather stored on the shared internal server. With Acrobat Pro 9, the distribute form function automatically extends Reader rights, which I do not want to happen with the form being stored on a shared server. The form will have secure information in it & responses are sent to a folder that will have write capabilities only.
Any info on how to prevent the extenstion of Reader rights when distributing the form is appreciated.

Something happened to the file after the time that it was Reader-enabled. It was modified in a way that invalidates the digital signature that controls whether the usage rights are valid. I seem to recall the GoLive can be configured to modify (optimize somehow?) PDFs when it uploads them, and you definately don't want this to happen for Reader-enabled documents. I don't have GoLive, so I can't check what setting it is, but you should be able to look for yourself. A workaround would be to upload via some other means, such as FTP. I'd be interested to know if this makes a difference.

How to remove "submit form" button that's generated when distributing form without Designer

When I open it in Designer to delete the image all of my java gets screwed up, so I'm hoping there is a solution that doesn't involve updating all of the code. I'm using PDF Expert 5 and Box because adobe's reader is absolute garbage.
Thank you in advance!

Sorry for not being clear, LC Designer.
Here is a screenshot of the submit form button in a blank form that's automatically inserted when distributing. If I open it in LC Designer I can remove the submit form button but it screws up all java and formatting. (sorry for not inserting an image or link, adobe'ss forums are about as well developed as its software)

Error message when distributing forms

Hi:
I am working in Adobe Acrobat Professional and Livecycle 8. Our client uses Acrobat Reader 9 to view forms, so I downloaded it for testing. I recently attempted to distribute a form from LiveCycle, but Reader 9 opens and Livecycle shows a Server Busy dialog box with an option to Switch to or Retry. Neither button works, and the distribute process eventually cancels telling me that Adobe Professional isn't responding. Anyone else having this problem or know how to fix it?
any help appreciated.
Thanks.

Diane,
you are using HTTPS to access Forms Services, as i take it from the URL further down below. It seems that the Forms Service cannot connect to the server and the operation times out. Can you verify that
https://<your server>/forms90/java/f90all_jinit.jar
downloads the f90all_jinitz.jar file ?

Acrobat 9 Pro Extended crashes when trying to distribute form

Hi.
I am experiencing an issue with Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Extended on Windows XP Pro SP3 32-bit.
I have created a pdf file derived from an html and css file.
The pdf file comes out perfectly with form fields automatically detected, etc.
However, when I try to distribute the form, by clicking on
1. Forms > Distribute Form...
2. Manually collect responses in my email inbox..
3. Save a local copy and manually send it later.
Acrobat.exe crashes with faulting module acroform.api. when trying to create the response file.
Faulting application acrobat.exe, version 9.0.0.332, faulting module acroform.api, version 9.0.0.332, fault address 0x00025878.
Any ideas?
I can successfully distribute a different form created from InDesign.
Thank you.

Any ideas? there was an update on adobe dated 2/25/13. Perhaps if I uninstall it? I need advice on how to uninstall. When I view updates and click on it, and then click uninstall, it goes back to the Program Screen, in Control, for all programs. Then do I click on Acrobat and Uninstall? I am nervous about doing this. Thanks

How can i change the code in when new form instance trigger using JDAPI

Hi all,
Can anyone tell me how can i use JDAPI to modify the when-new-form-instance trigger in all my forms,coz we have around 500 FMB's ,if this is possible by using jdapi it will be better for us..
Thanks in advance..
Najeeb

Hi Najeeb,
The code I've given you should cover the basic steps - you will need to have a basic knowledge of Java if you want to use the JDAPI, there's no way around that unless you go and buy one of the off-the-shelf products for this kind of thing (I think there's one called orcltoolbox..?)
I've written an application that does all kinds of things to Forms specific to our needs, so it's a bit tricky to just pull out the code you need, but again, the basics will be:
String formName="C:\some_dir\some_form.fmb";
FormModule mForm=FormModule.open(formName);
Trigger myWNFITrig=Trigger.find(mForm,"WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE");
String myText=myWNFITrig.getTriggerText();
And there you have your trigger text, to do with what you please. You could put this code in the main() method of one class if you want to keep things really simple - but see how you get on, if you have any more specific questions, do come back.
Eric - that's a very good point about using Regular Expressions. I haven't used them in my JDAPI app because I wanted to keep all my .fmbs 6i-compatible for the short-term, and a posting I saw somewhere recommended sticking to Java 1.3. Which rules out the regex facility, which only appeared in Java 1.4. Now, though, I think I needn't have worried - it surely shouldn't matter which version of Java I use to make the changes to the .fmbs. My stupid!

How does Adobe Forms Central base their automated page breaks when distributing to a PDF form?

OR
How can I define those page breaks before Adobe Forms Central created the PDF. I have attempted to "insert" a page break within the form; however, when distributing this form to be created as a PDF, the PDF is still placing the auto-generated page break wherever it wants.
Is it possible to move these auto generated breaks once the PDF form is created?
Thank you!

Did you add the page breaks while in Web View or Page View? FormsCentral uses "web view" as the default, but uses the "page view" to show where the PDF will have page breaks. Go to the menu bar on the top right, select "view," and then select "page view." You should be able to see page breaks here, and move them where you'd like them. It won't affect what people see on the web, just in the PDF.

Changing Adobe Interactive Form Layout When Archiving

We are using the adobe interactive forms (adobe liveCycle designer) to create forms for outgoing paper checks. Because of security risks with reprinting checks, it is necessary to change the output of the checks when they are archived (writing 'VOID' over the check), while the form created in the print spool remains unchanged. Is there a way to create dynamic fields on the interactive form based on when the form is being archived? We are using the archiveLink functionality with an external optical storage app. I know there is the possibilty to run the printing and the archiving process separately, using different form layouts, however, reconciliation becomes and issue and I would like to run both printing and archiving together in the same mass activity.

Hi Brian,
I have a requirement where I just need to Archive Adobe form in External repository.
Since you are using the archiveLink functionality with an external optical storage app
Can you please help me how you did?? What configurations need to be maintained for this?
I am new to this. I did some Rnd on it and found that it can be achieved using HRFORM_HRF02 Business Add-In in the SET_ARCHIVE_INDEX method.
But I have no clue how to do it?
Can you please help me?

Why cannot I distribute forms in Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional (when following directions)?

Why cannot I distribute forms in Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional (when following directions)?

Hello,
When you try to open Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional, the application returns the error "Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional cannot be launched at this time. You must launch at least one other suite component (such as Adobe Photoshop) before launching Acrobat 8 Professional."
Please try to do one of the following solutions:
* Open another Creative Suite 3 application first.
*Open any other Creative Suite 3 application and follow the on-screen instructions to enter a serial number and activate your software. Then open Acrobat 8 Professional.
But if you have MAC OS - Move the Acrobat, Adobe PCD, and Adobe PDF folders.
Quit any Adobe applications that are open.
In the Finder, navigate to /Library/Application Support/Adobe.
Note: This folder path refers to the Library folder at the root level of the startup disk, not the Library folder that is inside a user's Home folder.
Move the following folders to your Documents folder or another safe location:
Acrobat
Adobe PCD
Adobe PDF
Important: Do not delete these folders.
4. Open Acrobat 8 Professional.
5. Enter your serial number when prompted.
Hope this one could help.

Why Module level trigger contains "WHEN-CHECKBOX-CHANGED" trigger in Forms 6i?

Hi,
Why Module level trigger contains triggers like "WHEN-CHECKBOX-CHANGED", "WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED" etc.? "WHEN-CHECKBOX-CHANGED" trigger is present in CheckBox & "WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED" trigger in Button. Then why these triggers are also presnt in Module?
Can anyone please clarify my doubt?

There's a lot of triggers that are present at different "scopes". Like they exist at the item level, the block level,
the module level...
The idea is if you have an action that should only occur at that one single item it can do in the item trigger. If
it's for all of them on the block, in the block level trigger. If for all of them ever, at the module level.
For example suppose you wanted it to do a next_item after the trigger executed you can put that logic in the module
level trigger. A key thing to notice here is the trigger hierarchy. That is essential to know about.
Right click on one of these triggers in the object navigator. The execution hierarchy is override, before and after.
since each of these levels of the same trigger has this execution hierarchy this is, well, potentially not easy to
understand what is going to happen. I would typically have a per-item trigger be before and a higher level trigger
be after.
And this execution hierarchy thing is something I'd love to see enhanced in the gui. I wish it was a lot easier to see
what the execution hierarchy is when editing a trigger text. I wish one could see and modify the execution hierarchy on the
same screen as the trigger text and what would be really great is some way to tell how the trigger hierarchy will sort out
at run time. For example if one is looking at an item level trigger it would be fabulous to know that as is, that trigger will be
overridden by a higher level trigger and so on. Or vice versa if one is looking at a block level or form level trigger that it is
overridden by a lower level trigger, or it will execute before or after some other trigger. I don't know what is defined to happen
with various levels of triggers that have the same execution hierarchy. Like suppose they are all override,before,after.. then
what happens? It'd be good to know.

Acrobat XI hangs when adding a response from distributed form, when specific form field is filled

As the question says, when using the distribute form functionality of Acrobat, it hangs at the step of importing or adding a filled form, when a specific field on the form is filled. It happens whether the tracker automatically detects it when I open the distributed form and asks me to add it, or I manually try to add it in the responses form. Here's the screenshot of when I tried manually adding it. The first line is the one that hangs and is missing all fields except that "Approved" check box. But it's the last field "ApprovedDate" that makes it hangs if it's filled in the form. The Progress dialog just stays there forever and I can't click cancel. When it tries to add it automatically, nothing appears on the screen, the form just stays open and the tracker doesn't come up. I'm on Windows 7, Acrobat XI Pro. I can send you the form if needed.
Edit: I investigated further and there were Java scripts associated with that date field. These would have been added while creating the form in Acrobat; I don't remember how exactly, but I only meant to validate the date format. I've removed all the scripts and reset the desired date format on the field and it seems to work now.

I use Mavericks and Acrobat XI. I haven't had any issues so far.

How do you change the email address on the auto-created button in a distributed form?

I created a form and distributed form but its going to the wrong person. It's almost like its using the email address that was used to register the software

What does that have to do with the PREMIERE PRO video editing software discussed in this forum?
Provide the name of the program you are using so a Moderator may move this message to the correct program forum

FRM-18108 When loading form (due to change in olb)

Hello,
I am working with oracle forms 6i and have an object library and pl/sql library that are both utilized in all forms I work with. There was a duplicate stored procedure in the object library and pl/sql library so I removed the duplicate from the object library. This stored procedure that i removed from the olb was subclassed or copied to many of the forms I work with so I have been manually deleting that stored procedure from the forms so that my application will pick up the current version in the attached pl/sql library. The forms run fine however every time I open the forms that had the subclassed library object removed I get FRM-18108 Failed to load the following objects (the message references the object library as the source module and the stored procedure that was removed as the source object.)
I am not sure why forms is still looking for the stored procedures in the olb, I am confident that the subclassed copies from the olb have been removed form the form and there is no trace of the original code in the olb either. When running the form and calling that stored procedure it picks up the version from the pl/sql library without issue.
Both the object library and pl/sql library are correctly attached to the form and the registry does contain the path of their physical location. The form has been recompiled several times but I can't seem to get rid of the error.
Anyone have any idea what I can do to get rid of the FRM-18108 when opening forms that contained this subclassed unit that has been completely removed? It doesn't hurt anything but is annoying. Been searching through the forms but all I could find was issues with attaching the libraries which didn't help me on this.
Thanks!
