1 - Yes, sort of. The LiveCycle products require the LiveCycle foundation classes to run, but you don't need to install the other modules (Forms, ReaderExtensions, etc). With Generator you will get some "common" modules, such as Assembler. To merge two documents in the manner you mentioned, you will use Assembler.
2 - Yes. LiveCycle modules run on a J2EE platform and have a full Java API. The client jar files come with the product. Java Documentation can be found online at:http://help.adobe.com/en_US/livecycle/9.0/programLC/javadoc/index.html
Samples can be found at: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/livecycle/samples.html
3 - Price and licensing are too broad a topic to discuss in the forums. It will depend on the request volume (which effects the # CPUs), corporate discounts, existing Adobe products, etc. Your Adobe Sales Representative is best qualified to give you a quote based on your needs.

Need info on adobe pdf generator

Hi,
We are evaluvating a tool to convert word document to pdf for our prestegious client.
Below are requirements,
Requirement 1:
Source- MS Word document
Target- PDF
1) Conversion of MS Word document to PDF through online. Here Word document content don't follow any specific layout disagn.
User wants pdf format should be as same as Word document including font, file layout, header, footer.
2) Target Pdf should dynamically generate content while reading word document. i.e it has to replace <placeholders> with the data read from DB.
3) Target Pdf should also merge some other pdf documents during conversion
Requirement 2:
Source- PDF
Target- PDF
1) User will provide PDF which has user data aswell as <placeholders>. We need to replace the <placeholders> with the data read from DB & generate PDF.
Please let us know which adobe tool would suite better for above said requirements.
Note: From my initial analysis I found 'LiveCycle PDF Generator ES ' and 'LiveCycle Output ES2' are suitable to 'Requirement 1'. Please let me know your comments on this.
Thanks,
Kumaresh

I've not seen a response from others, so I'll chime in. If the answers are not in sufficient detail, I can find someone else to go to the next level.
Requirement 1: The key thing to keep in mind is that PDF Generator is a server-based framework around word, at least for the word to PDF part of its functionality.
1-1) Conversion of Word to PDF... PDF Generator does this well. Note that it will require the installation of MS Office or will use Open Office. Given your fidelity requirement, you probably want to use Office.
1-2) The integration of dynamic data is less clear. PDFG does not support this directly, as we use MS Office. I'm not a Word expert, but if you can pull of the dynamic content access and have the appropriate access paths available from Office as it is deployed on the server.
31-3) Both Output and PDF Generator use a common service called Assembler for the merge. This should be an easy usecase.
Requirement 2: Generation of PDF from a template.
The best product for you is LiveCycle Output. It will take a template from LiveCycle designer, either static of dynamic, and create PDF at moderate volumes. I'd suggest that you look at Designer, including its template import facilities, and then consider how you can get the data for your placeholders into XML format. Output is then quite easy to do the data merge, formatting, and PDF generation.

More information about this game:
The game should generate a random obstacle course for the player. The first column of the grid, however, should consist of all empty pieces, with the exception of the upper left-hand corner, which is the grid location where the player initially resides.
Enter a loop in which the following things happen (not necessarily in this order):
Print the current board configuration. Additionally, a key should be printed describing what each piece is.
Get an action from the user. The player can move up, down, left, or right. Use the following controls: up = 'i', down = 'm', left = 'j', right = 'k'. The player can move at most one block at a time. Of course, if the player tries to move into a spot occupied by an immovable block, the player will not move.
Inform the player whether they have won, or if they have lost (a player loses if they step on a bomb piece).
If the player types 'q', the game should terminate.
I am still stuck on this maze generator stuff.... Please help me....

How many Licenses of Acrobat Professional do I need for Adobe LC PDF Generator

Hi,
At our customer site we have purchased 6 licenses of Adobe LiveCycle PDF Generator and have recieved a license file with the keys for Adobe LiveCycle PDF Generator and Adobe Acrobat Professional. We bought the license from a reseller of the product. We understand that the Adobe LiveCycle PDF Generator is a server based software and needs 1 license per CPU. Each of our server (Dev, Val & Prod) have 2 CPU's so we have sufficient licenses (6). We are under the impression that this would suffice. How ever we are not sure on how many licenses we need for Acrobat Professional.
Here is a brief description of the way we would use Adobe LiveCycle PDF Generator. We are deploying a PLM system and one of the requirement is to render Word documents to PDF so we are using PDF Generator for this capability. On our Adobe servers we will install Microsoft Word, Acrobat Professional V9 Extended and the Adobe Livecycle PDF Generator. We will have around 150 users for the PLM system being deployed. The PLM system is a Web based system which means the PLM application server will be running on a Solaris server in our case. As part of the workflows in the PLM system, at the end of the workflow process, the PLM server would trigger a request to the Adobe server to convert the word document to PDF. The Adobe server processess the request and returns the PDF file that gets generated.
Based on the above usage of the system how many licenses of Acrobat Professional do we need? We will be installing Acrobat only on the server where we install the Livecycle PDF Generator. We had a call with our purchasing person today and she cautioned us that for Adobe Acrobat Professional we might need 1 license per user of the PLM system. She has asked us to check this with the Vendor of the product. Somehow I don't think it makes sense to purchase so many Acrobat Professional licenses even though we install only once.
So can someone tell me How does the licensing for Adobe Livecycle PDF Generator work? How many Acrobat Professional licenses we actually need? Is it based on the number of users in the system that is triggering the request? Appreciate your response on this.
Regards,
Ragha

You really should talk to your Adobe Sales Rep about this. There are all kinds of special deals, licenses and such for customers using LiveCycle. (For instance the license for PDFG may include Acrobat licenses for certain uses).

Livecycle PDF Generator on Unix environment

Hi,
Has anyone installed Adobe LiveCycle PDF generator on a Unix platform for converting Microsoft Office documents to the PDF format?
- How does it work, since Microsoft Office cannot be installed on the Solaris platform?
- I read that Open Office needs to be installed on the Unix m/c for the actual conversion. Is it True?
- What is the quality of the PDF's generated when the PDF Generator is on Unix platform?
Regards,
Ragha

Hi,
Thanks for the response.
Do you know the prerequisites for installing Adobe on the Unix (Solaris) environment? Do we need Adobe Acrobat Professional? On windows we need it. Is Adobe Acrobat Professional supported on Solaris??
Regards,
Ragha

How to buy only "Adobe LiveCycle PDF Generator ES" Service

Hi All,
I am very new to development using ADOBE products.
I have a small requirement, to generate PDF from DOC/DOCX on microsoft and non-microsoft platform using Java language (No MS Office is installed on that machine). So I came to know about Adobe LiveCycle PDF Generator ES.
Now, is there any other solutions available for specific need or above is the one from Adobe?
Can we purchase only this component? How to get the information about pricing of this component - Adobe LiveCycle PDF Generator ES?
Please guide,
Thanks in Advance,
(I am sorry if this is wrong place for this question and if so, please redirect me to the proper forum)

In order to convert DOC/DOCX to PDF, you need to install MS Office and also Acrobat on your LiveCycle Server. But there is no need to install any software on the client. You can only buy and install PDF Generator ES solution component. Once you installed PDF Generator you can invoke it through Java API or Web Services.

Can I install LiveCycle PDF Generator ES on Win XP 64bit?

Has anyone installed LiveCycle PDF Generator ES on a Windows XP 64 bit box and is there any problems doing so?

Thanks for the suggestions.
Lars, I cannot use Vista 64bit as my software maunfacturer warns AGAINST this. vista 64 is fraught with issues that make it unusable for my purposes. And FYI I have managed to install XP 64bit and most of the drivers are on the manufacturers websites and installed perfectly. :D
Jeffrey, the video card is not marked as "unknown" It is called a "standard VGA adapter" and I have tried many things even decompiling the nvidia driver installer to use as a manually chosen driver. And so you know, the Nvidia drivers I have tried to install have all been for their 'M series" which are all for "mobile" i.e. not "desktop" cards.
I feel that your suggestion od the HD QUAD CORE having no impact on video, may be a little uninformed as all the writeups I have read, suggest that it helps take the video processing load off the cpu. Again, I am no expert, merely keen to see if I can get this thing running without Windoze Vista.
Cheers for your attempts!!

Is there any Adobe LiveCycle PDF Generator for PS EXPERTS?

There seems to be a lot of question about this product with no answers. When you call Adobe you get the run around.
How is the product supposed to work?
When a basic installation is performed it does not do what is expected.
If you are suppose to be able to create Postscript files or drop Office documents in a watch folder or email them to the server and it converts them. Why does it not work? These are the basic function not a lot of development required. The only files that are converted are .PS and then it appends .PDF to the end of it. (test.ps.pdf) if fails on all office documents with an "Error Code: 11,020 Reason: The source file you submitted is not supported by this version of PDF Generator. If this product does not support this function then why did the installation require you to install Office before the Livecycle product is installed?

Hi Steven,
What you refer to is PDF Generator version 7.x Postscript edition.
In version 7 of the product there were 3 editions:
1. PDF Generator Professional
Create PDF files from a wide range of source files:
Print (PS, EPS, PRN)
Image (JPG, GIF, BMP, TIFF, PSD)
Standard office formats (DOC, XLS, PPT, WPD, MPP)
Text (TXT, RTF)
Web (HTML)
Design files (DWG, VSD)
Generate all types of Adobe PDF file formats:
PDF 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6
PDF/X-1a and PDF/X-3 for prepress document exchange
PDF/A for archiving with easy search and retrieval
Searchable PDF files from images
Convert PDF files to:
HTML documents
Text (TXT, RTF, accessible)
Images (TIFF, PNG, JPEG)
Print (PS, EPS)
2. PDF Generator Elements
Create PDF files from a wide range of source files:
Print (PS, EPS, PRN)
Image (JPG, GIF, BMP, TIFF, PSD)
Standard office formats (DOC, XLS, PPT, WPD, MPP)
Text (TXT, RTF)
Web (HTML)
Design files (DWG, VSD)
Generate all types of Adobe PDF file formats:
PDF 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6
PDF/X-1a and PDF/X-3 for prepress document exchange
PDF/A for archiving with easy search and retrieval
Convert PDF files to:
HTML documents
Text (TXT, RTF, accessible)
Print (PS, EPS)
3. PDF Generator Postscript
Create PDF files from a wide range of source files:
Print (PS, EPS, PRN)
Generate all types of Adobe PDF file formats:
PDF 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6
PDF/X-1a and PDF/X-3 for prepress document exchange
PDF/A for archiving with easy search and retrieval
So basically what you have is the very limited edition, doing exactly what you said. For more functionality you should opt for one of the other editions (that for version 7.x)
Today's version is the newer LC PDF Generator ES. You can look for its specifications at http://www.adobe.com/products/livecycle/pdfgenerator/
Thanks

Have you run SRT for the PDFG requirements?
         a. Using command prompt go to : <LC_Install_Dir>\pdfg_srt
         b. Issue the command: SystemReadinessTool .vbs <outputDir>
         c. Review the SRT Report
                i. There should be no Error Messages(even include set Adobe PDF as default printer)
                ii. There should be no Warning Messages related to the Application you plan to test

I have a system that can only print PCL format to a networked printer. Can LiveCycle PDF Generator act as a solution for this?

I would also like to know if PDF Generator could then direct the created PDF based on what it contains to various e-mail accounts.

I have a main system that I can generate reports in and designate a printer to print to once the report is finished. I want that printer to be a virtual printer that creates a PDF. I then the ability to have that PDF auto e-mailed to some address of my choosing. Can PDF/G do this?
Thank you

Using LiveCycle PDF Generator with VSD viewer

Hi everyone,
Is it possible to use PDF generator to convert vsd files into pdf file with only installing a Microsoft VSD Viewer instead of the standard complete Microsoft Office Visio Install ?
Thanks,
Thomas

You can create a web service to convert html to pdf using the HTML to PDF converter library for .NET or the converter integratd in the Winnovative PDF Creator for .NET. You can download the development libraries from http://www.winnovative-software.com .

Compress/Optimize Pdf using Adobe LiveCycle Pdf Generator in my c# console application

Hello,
I am creating an console application in C# that will optimize / compress pdf which contain high defination images. I have the pdf which have size above 500 MB i need to compress that kind of pdf files. I have seen the option to save as optimize pdf in Adobe professional software but i want to do that programmatically in my c# application.
Now I have asked this question in Acrobat SDK Forums as well and there they have told me to check Adobe LiveCycle Software Here is the link for that : http://forums.adobe.com/message/5468065.
Now If i want to go with Adobe Livecycle my question is.
Can I call or use adobeLivecycle pdf optimizer libraries in my c# application.
Let me know what i can do to integrate in my c# application

The API call is here.

optimizePDF
public OptimizePDFResult optimizePDF(Document inputDocument, String fileTypeSettings, Document inSettingsDoc) throws ConversionException, InvalidParameterException, FileFormatNotSupportedException
Optimizes the input PDF document by reducing its size. This method also converts the PDF document to the PDF version specified in the optimization parameters. This method supports the same optimization settings as Adobe Acrobat.
Parameters:
inDoc - This mandatory parameter contains an instance of the Document whose content is to be optimized. For this object, it is recommended that you either use the appropriate Document constructor if you have access to the file, or that you use the com.adobe.idp.Document.setAttribute() method if you only have access to the stream.
fileTypeSettings - Name of a file type settings instance that is defined on the LiveCycle server. The LiveCycle Administration Console window for Generate PDF lets you view the currently defined file type settings. It also lets you create custom file type settings. If the inSettingsDoc parameter specifies a non-NULL value, this parameter is ignored. If this parameter and the inSettingsDoc parameter are both null, this method uses the default file type settings instance that is defined on the LiveCycle server.
inSettingsDoc - file2pdf-settings XML file that contains file type settings to use for optimization, including the file type settings used by this method. For information about this file, see the description for the createPDF2() method.
Returns:
An object that exposes a method for getting the optimized PDF document.
Throws:
ConversionException
InvalidParameterException
