Merging Livecycle Forms into 1 PDF

Can someone please tell me how to merge Livecycle forms into one PDF! when i merge the forms only the last form has the generate data.

Initially I started trying to create a form that would flow on to the next page in LiveCycle. After many frustrating days and hours I decided to populate each page individually. When I populate the forms in ColdFusion the individual PDFs in which I want to merge together both contain the generated data. When I merge the pdfs into one I lost the data from the first page. I have seen previous posts regarding the inability to merge interactive forms created in LiveCycle with ColdFusion, I was curious if there was another way I could accomplish with for example with JavaScript etc. Any help or suggestions regarding this matter are extremely appreciated. THANKS!

Problem in converting smart form into PDF

HI Experts,
                  I am using a Function Module CONVERT_OTF for converting smart form into pdf file for send it to with attachment.
But i got a error when i am using that FM.
Runtime Errors         CONVT_NO_NUMBER
unable to interpret *292 as a no.
Is that because my file size too large about 13 pages of PDF?
and when i run it for other smart forms which have 2 or 3 pages of PDF, its working perfectly.
can anyone tell what is problem with that FM?
Thanks
Shakun

Hi,
I had the similar issue and after analysis I have that this is the issue by not passing the IMPORTING parameter of the Function Module "BIN_FILESIZE". Please try to pass some variable to this paramter and then this will be completely rectified.
DATA ; v_filesize     TYPE i.
*--Convert OTF data to PDF data
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_OTF'
    EXPORTING
      format                = 'PDF'
      max_linewidth         = 132
    IMPORTING
      bin_filesize          = v_filesize
    TABLES
      otf                   = it_otfdata
      lines                 = it_pdfdata
    EXCEPTIONS
      err_max_linewidth     = 1
      err_format            = 2
      err_conv_not_possible = 3
      err_bad_otf           = 4
      OTHERS                = 5.
Please verify whether this reolves the problem for you.

How to convert Smart Form into PDF format and return the result in BAPI?

I want to convert a Smart Form into PDF format and return the result in BAPI.
can anyone tell me how it can be done with related example
regards
pranay

hi,
smart form to pdf--
All you have to do is call your SF to get OTF and then concert it to PDF. Works like charm:
DATA: p_output_options TYPE ssfcompop,
p_control_parameters TYPE ssfctrlop.
p_control_parameters-no_dialog = 'X'.
p_control_parameters-getotf = 'X'.
CALL FUNCTION v_func_name "call your smartform
EXPORTING
output_options = p_output_options
control_parameters = p_control_parameters
IMPORTING
job_output_info = s_job_output_info.
call function 'CONVERT_OTF_2_PDF'
tables
otf = s_job_output_info-otfdata
lines = t_pdf
and if u need more u can check below links also
Check the below links..

How to convert Infopath forms into pdf or word ?

I have an urgent requirement. I need to covert approx 50k infopath forms into pdf/word.
Is there any way to convert it without using a third party software?
Is this possible via Powershell script ?

Not with Microsoft tools. This would be something supplied by a 3rd party, if available at all.

Inserting Fillable forms into PDFs converted from word

I need some help with inserting a fillable form I created in Live Cycle. When I go to insert the form into a file that was originally created in word and saved as a PDF,I receive a message (see below)
I need to be able to find a way to insert the fillable form to the end of a regular PDF, without losing the capabilities of the form, including a submit by email button, which I tried both as the Email submit button and the regular button, formatted to submit a email in response.
I don't know if there is some settings or preferences that I can change to be able to insert the form, but I need it to be one document.I know that this is not impossible, as I have seen other documents in this formatting, I just cant seem to be able to get it.

Embed Livecycle form into Outlook email

Anybody know of a way to, upon clicking submit, embed my form into the actual body of an Outlook email? Accounting needs this in order to keep an audit trail on monies being transferred.

You should not embed an html form in an email. While it may work with some email clients, it will not work in most clients.
Instead you should link to the form that is located on a web server somewhere.
You could also use Google Docs to create your form and gather replies.

Merging FDF data into PDF form

Hello all.
To fill pdf form we use such url:
http://server/form.pdf#FDF=http://server/get_xfdf
So as result will be opened pd form in browser and filled with received data.
This works in all browsers except Safari.
Tested on FF 3.5, IE6, IE7, IE8, Opera, Chrome.
What can be the reason? Why Safari don't want load xfdf/fdf data?
Additional info can be found here (chapter 5): http://www.aces.edu/ctu/techref/software/acrobat/5.x/FormSys.pdf
Thanks in advance, Andron.

No worries,
I've done this elsewhere and it seems to work quite well -
please bear with me though as the page this code is from handles
multiple documents so I've tried to cut that stuff out to make it
easier for you..
<cfset downloadroot=
"C:\inetpub\wwwroot\site\whatever">
<cfset dirName = createuuid()>
<cfset downloadDir = "#downloadroot#\#dirName#">
<cfdirectory action="CREATE" directory="#downloadDir#">
//okay, you're temp dir is now created...
<cfset documents="C:\blah wherever your secured documents
are stored">
<cfset filename="whateverthe name is of the file you are
allowing download of.doc">
//run a cfdirectory list - or fileexists() to check if the
document exists
<cfdirectory action="LIST" directory="#documents#"
filter="#filename#" name="checkDocument">
<cfif checkDocument.recordcount gt 0>
<cffile action="COPY" source="#documents#\#filename#"
destination="#downloadDir#\#filename#">
<a href="#downloadDir#/#filename#">#filename#</a>
</cfif>
You might need to play around with your directory variables,
regarding / vs \ usage in them, maybe have one dir var for system
usage eg: uses \ and one for the final HTML safe one eg: /
Hope it works for ya champ!

Merge LiveCycle Form with XML using JAVA

Hello.
I am trying to find out how to merge non-interactive form with XML (using JAVA) so the users can see the final output form with the data filled in.
What are my choices..?
So far, I have created the interactive forms as template using LiveCycle 8 and wrote ASP.NET code to extract data and store it in SQL database when the user fill out and submit the form.
It works great but another agency wants to access the form as well.
They told us that they will create the XML themselves from the database, so they just need to combine the form with XML to display it (non-interactive form).
They want to use JAVA but I am not sure how to do that...
Any suggestion?

Assuming that you start with XML in an org.w3c.dom.Document that stores the XML data. Before you can merge it into a form, you have to convert it to a com.adobe.idp.Document object. TO convert a org.w3c.dom.Document to a com.adobe.idp.Document object -- use the following Java code:
private Document convertDataSource(org.w3c.dom.Document myDOM)
byte[] mybytes = null;
try
//Create a Java Transformer object
TransformerFactory transFact = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
Transformer transForm = transFact.newTransformer();
//Create a Java ByteArrayOutputStream object
ByteArrayOutputStream myOutStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
//Create a Java Source object
javax.xml.transform.dom.DOMSource myInput = new DOMSource(myDOM);
//Create a Java Result object
javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamResult myOutput = new StreamResult(myOutStream);
//Populate the Java ByteArrayOutputStream object
transForm.transform(myInput,myOutput);
// Get the size of the ByteArrayOutputStream buffer
int myByteSize = myOutStream.size();
//Allocate myByteSize to the byte array
mybytes = new byte[myByteSize];
//Copy the content to the byte array
mybytes = myOutStream.toByteArray();
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("The following exception occurred: "+e.getMessage());
//Create a com.adobe.idp.Document object and copy the
//contents of the byte array
Document myDocument = new Document(mybytes);
return myDocument;
THen you can merge myDocument into the Form using renderPDFFOrm:
FormsResult formOut = formsClient.renderPDFForm(
formName, //formQuery
myDocument, //inDataDoc
pdfFormRenderSpec, //PDFFormRenderSpec
uriValues, //urlSpec
fileAttachments //attachments
Hope this helps!

9.4.2 update: Merge word docs into pdf BROKEN

While I am not experiencing the printer problems a lot of users are complaining about after the (so called) "update" to 9.4.2, another (for me) essential function is broken.
When I try to merge a couple of supported files into one pdf, the process will always stall at the very first non pdf file (e.g. a Word doc). This never happend before the update. This behavior has been reproducable on three machines. Is there any workaround / WHEN will Adobe react and remove or update this buggy patch pack?

hi there, thanks for the help!
My OS: Win 7, 64bit, all updates (checked today=
Office 2010, all updates.
Process: Acrobat -> merge into single file.
Merge of "pdf only" files is running smoothly.
However when there is any word file, there is a halt.
When the first word doc is processed, Word is starting and prompting me for a file name. After that Acrobat status progress "Converting" this file, but never continues with the next file. The merging dialog stays open but never progress.... no error is displayed.
This behavior was reproduced on 4 (!) machines! When trying to reproduce this make sure the word file is not the last one to be merged....
I also tried a installation repair (did not help).
Thanks for your advice....

Need to merge multiple files into pdf automatically

Guys,
I need to automate merging files into one pdf, i have looked everywhere and cannot seem to find an answer for it. I need to know if there is a command line tool for acrobat so i can use it in my batch file to combine files?

Hi Lauravill,
The free Adobe Reader cannot help you with the merging job. If you have Acrobat Reader then you can merge files into one pdf with the following steps-
Within Acrobat XI, select File > Create > Combine Files into a Single PDF.
Click Add Files and select the files you want to add.
Click, drag, and drop to reorder the files and pages. Double-click on a file to expand and rearrange individual pages. Press the Delete key to remove unwanted content.
When finished arranging the files, click Combine Files.
Select File > Save As > PDF.
Name your PDF file and click Save.
Let us know if you face any problemwith this or need extra support.
Thanks

Parameter Form into PDF Output?

Hello,
I've written a few reports in 6i and want the web output in PDF. It works fine until I encounter a report needing parameter input. If I include the special parameter %P in the cgicmd.dat it pops up the parameter form and displays the result in a PDF document. Unfortunately, not all my reports need parameters, thus I must use the PARAMFORM=YES in my URL. This is were my problem arises, the parameter form is displayed but when I click on submit I get an error page. It says id doesn't recognize the output. Any ideas? Thanks.

Hello,
A File (or several if needed) is/are always generated in the cache whatever the destination type is (DESTYPE=FILE / PRINTER / ...)
in http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/html/B14048_02/pbr_arch.htm#i1005582
- The Reports Engine populates the Reports Server cache.
- The Reports Engine notifies the Reports Server that the report is ready.
- The Reports Server accesses the cache and sends the report to output according to the runtime parameters specified in either the URL, the command line, or the keyword section in the cgicmd.dat file (URL requests only).
You can use the parameter EXPIRATION if you want to "expire" some output files in the cache. After the duration specified in EXPIRATION, the files in the cache will be deleted.

Writing data programmatically into PDF template created in LiveCycle designer

Hi!!!
I have a PDF template designed in Adobe LiveCycle Designer 7.0. This template has form fields which needs to be filled with data programmatically (I don't want to open LiveCycle Designer 7.0 and from there do import/export). I want to write a program in java, which will fetch data from database and will merge this data into PDF form in respective fields.
How this can be achieved? Do I have to write an XDP file? Is there any API which will create XDP out of the PDF template created in designer? If so, then how to merge the data from the XDP into the PDF programmatically.
Thanks in advance.

Careful with the recommendations for XPAAJ. There are specific restrictions around whether you can
use XPAAJ or not. Specifically, you have to own a copy of one of the server-based LiveCycle
products. This does not include LiveCycle Designer, which is a client product.
Maybe someone from Adobe can clarify.
