PDF Form Javascript for getting User LoginName

Please let me know PDF Form JavaScript for showing User Login Name (login id) in the Text Field (text1), when using Button (button1).

As noted there has to be a special folder level script installed on each user's system. This script can be written to access individual properties of the identity object or only a specific property. One can also create a function to access the identity object or even create new properties.

  • PDF Form javascript for making readonly field by using button

    Please let me know the PDF Form JavaScript for making selected fields(Text field,Drop down list,..) as read-only by using Button.

    Do you want your button to be made read only?
    One starts with Acrobat JS Reference.
    // make all fields in a form read only;
    var oField; // variable for field being processed;
    // loop through the form fields;
    for (var i = 0; i < this.numFields; i++) {

    Thank you for posting on Adobe forums.
    Could you please let me know what Adobe Writer program you are talking about. Is it Adobe Acrobat or Reader?
    Could you please share the screenshot of the exact error message that appears.
    Are the PDF forms saved on your computer's local drive?

    Dear Saman,
    If you want to set form setting for particular user than first gave him authorized for form setting, and than log on through particular user and than open the document (PO,SO.DO,A/R,A/P)and set the form.
    if you want the copy form setting form of particular user than log through user and go -to  Admin-setup-genaral-User and copy the form setting.

  • How to get a PDF form message for a license?

    I am attempting to configure a SPF-transaction PDF form for /SAPSLL/LCLICE02 (Letter of Credit transaction). 
    I have defined the Technical Medium for Messages (PPF) of Licenses and the Condition/Output Parameters for Communication of Licenses.  The Action Definition is set up as an External Communication with a PDF-based form and Object-Specific Variable Replacement.  I have tried various formats, including /sapsll/form_proc, with no success.
    When I switch to the communication tab in /sapsll/lclice02, the program crashes in the middle of printer determination with a move-cast error.  It is clearly reacting to the PDF as a CUHD data type when it needs an LCLIC type.  What configuration am I missing?  Where can I set this?

    For Acrobat X go to File-> Save as->Reader Extended PDF
    This will embed the reader extended rights in PDF.

  • Form opening for some users but not others

    I created a form with an area for the recipient to simply type their name, save the document and email it back.  This works for some but I have a user getting an error message:
    "This document does not allow changes to be saved.  Any changes you have made will not be included in the document when it's mailed.  Do you want to continue?"
    Could this be an issue with the user's Reader?  They cannot save or email the document once they type in their name.

    Reader XI is the first version of Adobe Reader that can save a filled in PDF form without any additional processing steps.
    Versions of Reader prior to version XI could not save filled-in forms. Version 7 with updates was the first version of Reader that could save forms for which special Extended Reader Rights were applied to.
    Which version of Reader are the users with problems using?
    If before version XI and version 7 or newer, then you need to apply Extended Reader Rights to the form. For users with version 6 or older, they will have to upgrade to a newer version of Reader.

    Hi guys, i have bit of a problem here as i am new to the Acrobat pro X 
    Using Acrobat pro 9 i always could save a LiveCycle pdf form with permission to fill and save as a reader user. now i have upgraded to cs6 and i have no clue how to do that anymore. The half of the options are gone and i can't access the older Acrobat pro anymore.

  • Send PDF form to email address user enters in textfield on form.

    I would like to be able to allow the person using the form to choose what email address the PDF form is emailed to. I read this post which sounds like what I want but I keep getting a Submit Cancelled error. The email does get generated and the form is attached as a PDF so that part works okay.

    This is the code I am using as I only need the To: address populated.
    form1.Page1.Button1::preSubmit:form - (JavaScript, client)
    var strToAddress
    //Capture the values from the form fields.
    strToAddress = txtToAddress.rawValue;
    event.target.submitForm({cURL:"mailto:"+ strToAddress,cSubmitAs:"PDF",cCharset:"utf-8"});

    Hi,
    There is an example here: http://assure.ly/eUR4wJ.
    // Declare the variable
    var vEmail;
    // Check that the email field is not null
    if (txtToAddress.rawValue !== null) {
         vEmail = txtToAddress.rawValue;
    // Send email
    event.target.submitForm({cURL:"mailto: " + vEmail + "?subject=&body=",cSubmitAs:"PDF",cCharset:"utf-8"});

  • PDF Form interfaces for invoice

    Hi experts,
    I`m implementing company forms (e.g. invoices) in PDF Forms. But I have found, that there are 2 form interfaces predefined for invoices
    IS_U_BILL_IF
    and
    IS_U_BILL_PDF2_IF
    Why there are 2 interfaces for invoice? I cannot find any references of use cases, when to use first or second one.
    Thank you

  • Downloading PDF forms Application For Visitor Visa (Temporary Resident Visa - TRV) Canada

    I have been trying to download PDF Visa forms from the Canada Application for Visitor Visa website and everytime I click on a form I get this message:

    I already have the latest version of Adobe Reader XI and I do not get the PDF form.
    Can anyone lend me a hand??  I do believe that it is the Canada website that might have a glitch, but they don´t have a ¨contact us¨ to be able to tell them that they need to fix the site. 
    What else can I do???

    This means that you are using a browser that uses its own, incompatible PDF viewer, not the Adobe Reader plugin.  See http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/pdf-browser-plugin-configuration.html

  • Making fillable forms usable for Reader users

    I create fillable forms in Adobe Acrobat X Pro and I need to know how to make it so that they can be filled out and saved (in their filled-out form) by users of Adobe Reader. I have tried the advice in this article: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/acrobat/X/pro/using/WS58a04a822e3e50102bd615109794195ff-7e0d.w .html, but when I save them as Reader-extended pdfs and then open them in Reader, I can't fill them out. If I save them as Reader-extended pdfs and then choose "save a copy", the resulting copy, when opened in Reader XI, can be filled out and saved, but it doesn't work in Reader X. I need a solution that works for all recent Reader versions!
    I am about to tear my hair out over this issue! I just need our clients to be able to fill out forms and save them with the data still in them in Reader!

    Working solution for "Can't save data to a PDF using Adobe Reader 11 (Dynamic form created in LiveCycle ES3, extended using Adobe Pro X)"
    I've been reading the posts in this thread and other threads, and many users seem to have a "similar" problem with data being put in to an "Extended PDF", but that data not being saved when opened in Adobe Reader.
    This issue has been happening at my place of work as well and I have found a work around.
    Firstly, let me explain what we have in place:
    Windows 7
    Adobe LiveCycle ES3 (10.0.2)
    Adobe Acrobat Pro X (10.1.10)
    Adobe Reader (11.0.06)
    Adobe Extension Server 9
    The Steps leading up to the issue:
    I created a Dynamic form using LiveCycle ES3
    Saved the XFA file to a Dynamic PDF
    Opened the PDF in Acrobat Pro X, and extended it (and saving under a new file name)*
    Open the PDF in Reader 11 and open the extended PDF, enter some data, save the PDF and close Reader
    Re-open Reader and the previously saved PDF with my data in it
    Once I re-open the file, the data is gone
    The solution (in my case):
    (first 3 steps are the same as above)
    I created a Dynamic form using LiveCycle ES3
    Saved the XFA file to a Dynamic PDF
    Opened the PDF in Acrobat Pro X, and extended it (and saving under a new file name)
    Open Acrobat Pro X (not Reader), then open the extended PDF*
    Enter some data, and save the form normally and give it a new name
    Re-open the PDF form with Acrobat Pro X, with the saved data (which the data should be there), then delete the data I entered, then save the form.
    Open Adobe Reader XI, open the same PDF that "I saved from Acrobat Pro X", then "cleared" the data from it (not the original PDF I extended)
    Enter some data, and then save the file
    Re-open Reader, the same PDF, and the data should now be holding (not empty)
    *Even if I use the Adobe Extension Server to extend the PDF, the data still does not save from Reader.
    My guess as to why this is happening(?)
    I never had this issue when I was creating my forms using LiveCycle ES2.
    I am guessing that ES3 somehow sets different security/document/property settings when I save the XFA document to a PDF. When I extended the PDF afterwards using Acrobat Pro X, something "under the covers" of Acrobat Pro X breaks or resets the properties of the PDF.
    By re-opening the PDF in Acrobat Pro X, entering data, then saving the PDF under a new name, then going back and removing the data I entered; it seems to set new security/property/document settings that Adobe Reader 11 can handle?
    I've had to follow this same process each time I edit or create a form in LiveCycle, with a 100% success rate. With that being said, I have not seen what happens if the form I create is simple and "not dynamic".
    Hope this "rather bizarre" solution is helpful to some?

  • Is ADS and PDF forms required for an upgrade to ECC 6.0 for US Payroll?

    We're currently on SAP 4.7 for US Payroll, but are working on an upgrade to ECC 6.0. I'm looking for a clear answer to whether or not we have to move to Adobe Document Services and PDF forms with our upgrade. I've heard from several sources that SAP is not providing updates to SAPscript forms in ECC 6.0 and will only make updates to PDF based tax reporter forms going forward. Can anyone comfirm that is the case?
    Thanks in advance,

  • As the creator of an interactive PDF form, can I block users from opening it in Preview or web?

    I have created a number of interactive PDF application forms which are downloaded from our website and completed by individuals and organisations who wish to apply for funding.
    Increasingly we are being contacted by people who are having trouble completing, saving and printing the forms. In almost every case it turns out that they have opened/filled in the form in Preview or in their web browser and the form has been corrupted. As Macs become more and more popular this is going to become a bigger issue, to the point where we may not be able to use interactive PDFs anymore. 
    We do have a warning at the top of the first page of each form telling people that they need to complete their form using Adobe Reader or Acrobat, with a hyper-link to the web page to download Adobe Reader for free. But this obviously isn't sufficient given the number of people who are still trying to access and complete the forms in Preview.
    What I want to know is if there is any way, as the creator of the form, that I can stop it from being opened in Preview in the first place? Or failing that, if it is possible to create a warning that pops up if the form in opened in Preview or a web browser?
    If this can't be done I will need to include a detailed technical help page in the form. Rather than starting from scratch, if anyone has already pulled this information together and would be happy to share it would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks for your help (in advance)
    Rachel

    You can't prevent it from opening, but you can active the form only if it's being used in a JavaScript-capable viewer. You could show a message (e.g., button, layer) by default, and get rid of it if a script that runs when the form is opened is executed. The script could also enable the fields if everything checks out.

  • Reader Extended PDF not working for some users

    I've created a document in Adobe X Pro and saved it as a Reader Extended PDF with Enabled Commenting & Markup. Most users are having no problem adding comments (by attaching a file) but I have a few users having issues (one with Adobe Reader 9 for Mac and one with Adobe Reader X for Windows). They are seeing the bar at the top telling them they cannot save data in the form, and they do not have access to any of the commenting or markup features.
    Thoughts?

    Which web browsers are they using to download the PDF file?  If you send them the Extended PDF file via email are they able to connect to the Shared Review?

  • Export to pdf not visible for some users

    Hi,
    I exported a dashboard to pdf (Xcelsius 2008, SP2), and sent it to other users.
    On my labtop the pdf works fine, but some of the users get only a blank page. They are asked if they want to run the contents of the file (so flash is working in general), but after confirming the message, the screen remains blank. The funny thing is, that these users are able to run a PPT or HTML dashboard. The problem occurs only for PDF (all of us are using Adobe Acrobat Professional 7.0).
    We already deinstalled flash player plug-ins, and re-installed the plug-ins for Adobe Flash 10, both for IE and Mozilla. (But I am still not sure which plug-in is used when running the PDF??) Any of you an idea if there is an issue with PDFs Exports? 
    Thanks a lot,
    Sonja

    THIS happens to me too, I have Xcelsius 2008, running XP. 
    My business partner and I both can view the files in PDF WORD or PPT format if we send them back and forth to edit, but as soon as we send files outside of network, the new person, running XP or Vista, can not see the content. 
    PDF, word or PPT opens, but there is no content on screen.
    What Gives?
