Need Merging PDF forms in Android Tablet (with a twist!)

Hi guys I was wondering if there is anyway to Merge PDF documents in a Android app and keep the repeating information in forms intact. Let me explain. I have a regular form which cilents fill out but some times another form needs to be filled out also which have the repeating fields like name, date of birth, etc. I know that it is possible to do it in in Acrobat X Pro where you combine two PDF documents and as long as the form field is the same name or copied and pasted in the two seperate PDFs , information repeats itself automatically. However I was wondering if there is a way to do this on an android tablet (Motorola Xoom for me). I have tried apps that merge 2 seperate documents however the information from those that would normally repeat in Acrobat X on a regular computer does not do so in PDF merging apps I tried. I normally use qPDF and ezpdfreader but they don't seem to have a merging of two documents option (Or i don't know/can't find one). So any help? Any useful app I don't know about that can some my dilemia? Thanks ahead !

Hi,
i know this is rather late, but based on what I've read online, it seems your issue is common among pdf form apps on the Android. From what i hear, qPDF Notes works well, but doesn't allow calculations. My guess is that the app developer hasn't loaded/programmed the necessary scripts in order to achieve calculations.

Interactive PDF form on Android, can I make a form field to open camera and use photo in field?

If I have an interactive PDF form on Android, is there any way to make a form field that will open the camera and insert the photo in the field?

One alternative would be to create a web form in FormsCentral and use the attachment feature.

Signig PDF forms on a tablet

I have the free Adobe Reader XI and in my PDF forms, my clients have to double tap the tablet screen to sign. It becomes difficult for those that lift their fingers off during a signature. Is there a version or trick that would make the signature a more fluid/easy way to sign? Thank you!

Hi;
Are you using iOS or Android tablets or Windows tablets?
Thanks,

Embed (merge) PDF Forms

Hi folks,
I'm using LiveCycleDesigner 7.1 on WAS700 ABAP stack.
I'd like to create a bunch of PDF Forms and merge them together into one or more PDF Documents during runtime. These forms are beeing used as a report and are non-interactive.
The reason of this is to dynamically put together different combinations of the same Form parts, without having redundant coding.
Please share your ideas with me.
Cheers
Daniel

Salut François
Thanks for your reply.
My form is very heavy. It contains 15 subforms and there are 7 combinations how they are beeing arranged to one document. I have done this with java-script codings inside the subforms.
If I understand you correctly, there's a way to call different Forms within ABAP and bring them together in one PDF document? Can you please give me an example?
Thanks allot.
Regards,
Daniel

Adobe LiveCycle geschützte PDF ePaper mit Android-Tablet lesen

Hallo, ich besitze ein Android Tablet (4.04) und versuche PDF Dateien (Zeitungen) der Onleihe zu lesen. Der Android Adobe-Reader (10.5) bringt eine Fehlermeldung, dass der Remote-Server edc.biliothek-digital.de derzeit nicht erreichbar ist und ich es später probieren soll. Über den PC ist der Server ohne Probleme erreichbar. Funktioniert das seit Ende 2011 im Android Adobe-Reader implementierte LiveCycle-Schutz-Management nicht oder ist das nur ein Problem mit den Onleihe-Bibliotheken? Bin dankbar für einen Hinweis.

Hi Dennis,
Thanks for the response. This is interesting because I went through the process of testing the LiveCycle generated form (ES2) on my personal Android device before my company invested in the Sony units. Since the update has happened, the form no longer works on my personal device or the Sony’s of course. I’ve tried the different export settings and each time, no luck. A refund would be greatly appreciated since I purchased the product to continue the work at home on my personal laptop. Please advise on what the process is for a refund.
Thank you,

How can I pair Firefox browser intalled on Android tablet with my TV?

My TV is connected to my home network internet through Smart Hub on Samsung Blu-ray. The Smart Hub has its own browser which is very slow and can not be paired with my Android tablet. I could pair YouTube with YouTube/pair though ! I tried to download FF, but the Smart Hub won't do it?
In short, how can I run the internet from my laptop or Android tablet ?
Thank you in advance for you help.

Hello Philipp, thank you very much for your response and help. Yes, definitely I will read the documentation of my device manufacturer...
I hope I will be able to figure this out.
Have a blessed day,

Ipad app that will fill in pdf form and capture signature with stylus

Hello. I am looking for an application which will allow me to read, edit and fill out pdf forms AND capture a signature on the pdf form with a stylus. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I currently am using an ipad, second generation.

hullo there, i would personally recommend writepdf, i use this myself and you can do all of the above more or less, you can also create customized signatures and insert them into pdfs. i think what i like even more about writepdf is that you can directly edit docs, anyway, definitely look for it on the app store!

Merge pdf form data to an ASP page via HTTP

I am using Adobe LiveCycle.
Using LiveCycle has anyone been able to collect data from a PDF form posted on their web page, submit via submit button, that data to an ASP page and use the ASP page to do record manipulation.
I have successfully created a PDF page and collected the data with JavaScript and updated the database. I'm looking for an alternative solution.

Hi Robert,

xfa.sourceSet.DataConnection1.delete();

Need to create form on a table with report with a table has NO primary key

Hi, I tried to created some insert/update/delete form+report in an application, it works fine only if the table has primary key. Does anyone know how to create the same functionality with a table with no primary key? I saw an application is built on older version of htmldb that is using tables with no primary keys at all.
Here are the specific issues that I am facing:
- I am building some Form on a table with Report, it requires the table with primary key for form to update. Is there a workaround that I can use tables that has no primary keys at all?
- Say if primary key is necessary in the previous report+form, but the maximum number of columns that I can use to composed a primary is only 2 for that Form-Report, I cannot find anything handling > 2 primary key. Do you know if there are some ways to composite a primary key from many columns together?
Your help is really appreciated.
Thanks,
Angela

Sorry to ask response so late. I had no time to get back to that issue before.
Regarding the triggers, I can make it work for the update, but not the insert.
Here is my trigger:
create or replace trigger STATUS_T1
instead of insert on STATUS
begin
insert into STATUS ("LABEL", "AREA", "OWNER", "TEST_NAME", "STATUS", "REMARKS", "BUGS", "DEV_MGR", "TEST_BY_DATE")
values(:new.LABEL, :new.AREA, :new.OWNER, :new.TEST_NAME, :new.STATUS, :new.REMARKS, :new.BUGS, :new.DEV_MGR, :new.TEST_BY_DATE);
end;
by any chance, you can notify what is wrong?
I already skip the ROWID when inserting to the view STATUS, but I cannot figure out what is wrong when inserting a new record to that view.
It gave me the following errors:
ORA-06550: line 1, column 38: PL/SQL: ORA-00904: "ID": invalid identifier ORA-06550: line 1, column 7: PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored
Error Unable to process row of table STATUS
Then, I turned to debug mode, I am thinking that maybe because I use a HIDDEN item to hold the value of ROW_ID as I use the rowid (called ID in the view) to retrieve the record as a column link from previous page. What do you think?
Thanks again,
Angela

Why do I have to connect internet to view PDF files on Android tablet?

I keep getting a prompt that forces me to connect to the internet when I try to open PDFs on a Coby tablet at our monthly meeting. we do not have a wi-fi in our business for security reasons so this is causing us a problem. I turned off the check for updates and still forcing me to connect. Coby support directed me to Adobe support. How can I avoid this?

Are you trying to open LCRM (Live Cyle Rights Management) protected PDF files? Because only those PDF files require authentication over the network before opening. If not using LCRM protected then can you share your PDF file at [email protected], so that we could look into it.

Do I need to use javascript to get a text field in a PDF form to aut fill with current/today's date?

I have a form for booking appointments and would like the date field to automatically fill with
today's date and to print. I have set the text field's format to "Date" and when I place the cursor into the
date field, today's date shows. It disappears as soon as I tab to the next field.
Does this action require a javascript script to fill and print today's date? If so, where do I find that?
Or is there another way to format the text field (besides typing today's date) to get the current date?
Thanks.

Thank you GKaiseril!
From the examples by Chris Dahl, I edited the script in the text field editing dialog to reflect the title I had given the field. That fixed the problem of today's date disappearing as soon as I tabbed to the next field.
How do I choose for document level or page open script? I would like it to insert the date upon opening the document.
Thanks again.
Ali
NOTE: I found the answer within Chris Dahl's tutorial... path is for Acrobat Pro 8: Advanced>Document Processing>Document Javascripts

Buttons in pdf forms on Android with Adobe Reader

Hello all,
We used Adobe Acrobat XI to make a form and it was working great on Android. (Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.2) using the Adobe Reader app.
We were able to open the form and create a copy and edit it and save it. It works fantastic... Except....
All of a sudden had a user that wanted an increment / decrement button for a number field.
Well, that's all fine and dandy for a fillable form on a desktop but I ran into issues on Android.
The Android app for Adobe Reader doesn't seem to recognize the buttons to increment / decrement the value. It doesn't really even see them as buttons.
On an iPad, The Adobe Reader app does see this and act accordingly.
They are ran off of a javascript action- getField("fieldName").value++ / value-- respectively.
Is there a way or should the Android app be recognizing these buttons?
Thanks,
James

Manually download the files to your computer (right-click on the url). When the file is downloaded to your computer do you get the same message when you try to open in Reader through the File->Open menu? What about when you open the file in Mac's Preview application?

Form converts to XML data and I need the pdf form to be visable

Hello all,
I just created a form in pro 8 for our salesmen and it is a sales order form. I have sent it out to them to fill out and return it by pressing the email button in the form and some have come back as XML date stream and some came back as the original form with all fields filled in. I want to know how to get all of them to come back filled in instead of the XML Data. All salesmen have Reader 8 installed on the machines. Can anyone help me with this problem?
Thanks in advance,
Tony

Hi there, I'm myseld using the Application data-field in order to collect mobile forms OFFLINE.
I can collect as many mobile form as i want BUT, of course, need to be online to sync the data from mobile to their cloud.
Hope that helps.
Otherwise, would probably need to plug ur idevice and look for the application database with such tool as iConnector.

Is this the only tablet that can use iTunes? Or can you use Android Tablets with iTunes?

I'm looking into buying a tablet... But can i get my music from iTunes onto different tablets like the android 2.2...? Or just iPads? Can someone please help?! I'm going black friday shopping soon...!

Nope, I personally do not like android.
I find it to be annoying in a lot of little ways.
I have used both a phone(galaxy s) and have a cheap tablet(archos 70).
The only reason to get an android device is if you can not live without being able to fiddle with 100's of different settings, widgets, screen animations, etc to totally customize the device or you cannot afford an iPad and will accept one of the cheaper tablets realizing you are getting a pretty poor substitute.
In the case of cheap tablet-Nook Color tablet is probably best choice. In another month or so xda will crack it and have some really good ROMs for it.
