  • LifeCycle PDF form = small size, Acrobat PDF extended to READER = LARGE SIZE

    When creating the dynamic PDF form in LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2.x, the file size is < 200K. When opening in Acrobat 9 Pro and extending to Acrobat Reader, the file size > 1.2MB. Is there any way to reduce the file size?
    Thanks!

    >. I understand that this LifeCycle Reader Extensions allows for such a result
    That's correct.
    >but I have not clue how to add this funtionality to my already created PDF?!?
    LiveCycle Reader Extensions is a product. You buy it. Note that the
    price is "on application" and varies with your company's needs, but is
    typically either tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars. This is to
    offset the "lost sales" of Acrobat which people would otherwise have
    to buy to save forms.
    > I have downloaded the trial version Adobe LifeCycle Designer 7.1 (which appears to have full functionality for only 60 days)in hopes to just add this capability
    There are many products with LiveCycle in the name from Adobe. That's
    a different one.

  • PDF Form Text Size

    When I fill out a fill-able text box in a pdf form, the information for a number of boxes is longer than the space shown for the answer.  I am trying to find a way to adjust the text size with no luck, too. 
    How can I make sure the text provided in each text box will show when I save / print the fill-able form?

    Only the creator of that form can do that.

    Are you using any font's other than the standard ones (aka base-14)? The standard ones are Helvetica, Times, Courier (including four variants of each), Symbol, and Zapf Dingbats (Adobe Pi is the replacement).
    If that's not it, do a Save As, as opposed to just a Save. This will rid the document of unused objects that accumulate each time you save.

  • How to reduce PDF Form file size?

    Hello
    I have a PDF that is 22KB without form fields, but once I add the fields to the form, it increases the size to a huge 528KB.
    There are 5 or so text fields, one digital signature, and 14 different 'Radio Button" categories.
    Is there any way to still ensure the form works as I need it too (ie. I don't want to get rid of any fields, and I don't want to change radio buttons to check boxes or anything), but reducing the size of the file??
    Thank you

  • How to expand multi-line fields in pdf forms?

    I have a FormsCentral PDF form, which allows users to fill out the form and save as a PDF. However, after receiving the completed forms, I am unable to see all the text in the multi-line field boxes without opening them and scrolling down. Since I will be sharing several of these competed forms with a review panel, I would like to:
    1) Display the entire content of the multi-line field boxes rather than having the reader scroll down, then
    2)  Save the completed forms so that its read-only when I send it to the review panel
    I am not collecting responses via FormsCentral. I am just receiving the PDF via email.
    Can someone please help me?
    Thank you!

    You can use a script to change the font size to Auto, which will cause all of the text to display, assuming it can be even at a font size of 4. For example, the following code can be executed in the interactive JavaScript console (Ctrl+J):
    // Set the font size to Auto for a text field named "Text1"
    getField("Text1").textSize = 0;
    A script that will change this for all multline fields in the form is:
    // Set the font size for all multiline fields to Auto
    for (var i = 0; i < numFields; i++) {
        var fName = getNthFieldName(i);
        var f = getField(fName);
        if (f.type === "text" && f.multiline && f.textSize !== 0) {
            f.textSize = 0;
    This script could be included in an Action if you want to do this for a collection of forms.

  • PDF form - email subject line = field

    I am creating a PDF form on our intranet to be filled out and submitted via email with a submit button. All works well, but the recipients would like the subject line of the email to be info from the first field on the form so that it is easily searchable. I am using Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.0 (also have Acrobat 8 Professional) but haven't found anywhere to edit this info.  I have read thread referencing possible solutions by utilizing javascript, but I'm not sure where to begin where javascript is concerned (not my forte).
    Right now the form is Submitted by Email via a "Button" set to Control Type: Submit. Under the Submit tab I have set the Submit to URL field to - mailto:"emailaddress".
    Also, the recipients mentioned that they can't see the PDF in the body of their email, instead its only an attachment. We are all using Outlook and Outlook Webmail and would like to see the PDF in the body.  Is there an easy way to accomplish this as well?
    Any helpful suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

    Now I understand what you mean .....if you are using a true submit button then the validations will run automatically. If you are using a button for programming and that is calling the submit button then you will have to fire the validations yourself. The command to do this is:
    if  
    (form1.execValidate()){ SubmitButtonName.execEvent("click")
    else {
         app.alert("You have validation errors...");
    where form1 is the root node of your form. If the validations run and there are no errors then it will return a true value and the submitbutton will be pressed. If there are errors then the message box will appear. and the submit will not occur.
    Hope that helps

  • PDF Form to XML. How to handle invoice detail lines

    I am using LC Designer 7.x on a PDF form that has a submit button that loads a ColdFusion MX7 page that will save the XML in a MS SQL 2005 XML field.
    My source of confusion is how to handle the invoice detail lines on the PDF invoice form.
    The XML that I want is
        5 All Season Tires
        400.02
        A car with 5 wheels
        20400.00
    My question is how do I setup the form fields to do this.
    What I did prior to XML was have fields whose name included the line number and store them as FDF.
    eg
        description01 amount01 description02 amount02
    But that will not work, or I dont know how to translate that to the desired  XML.
    Any thoughts you might have would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Archie,
    You want to create a subform called "invoiceLine" which you've set to repeat for each data item using the Binding tab of the Object palette. This subform must be contained within another (e.g. "invoiceLines") whose content is set to be "Flowed" on the Subform tab of the Object palette. So your object hierarchy looks like:
      invoiceLines = subform with flowed content
        invoiceLine = subform repeated for each data item
          description
          amount

  • Allowing users to add additional lines in a PDF form?

    I'm using Adobe acrobat X Pro to create PDF forms to capture invoicing information. Yet I can't figure out how to allow a user to add additional charges. I could create a form that just had a large amount of charge lines that could be left blank but was hopeing to allow for a dynamically adjusting form where someone could click a button to just add a new line entry into the form and the form would adjust down and enter in a new set of line entries. Is it possible to do this in Acrobat X Pro?

    For the foorm to auto-adjust in response to adding a new line, you should look into what a dynamic XFA form that you create with LiveCycle Designer has to offer. LiveCycle Designer comes with Acrobat Pro as a separate application. More information is in the Designer help docs, in the LiveCycle Designer forum here, and in a number of tutorials at acrobatusers.com

  • PDF form with line printer

    Hi,
    Is there a way to use PDF form with line printer? how, and the pros & cons. Currently we are using SPF to develop pdf form in sap, however it has limitation to print on line printer that we need to print on 3 ply form. The only option is to convert all PDF form to sap script.

    Hi courtneyp58664902,
    I would recommend you to follow the steps detailed on the page associated with this link (http://wwwimages.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/products/acrobat/pdfs/adobe-acrobat-xi-con vert-forms-into-fillable-pdf-c… ).

    Please let me know if you face any challenges or need any further assistance.

  • How can I adjust the font size, etc., when completing a PDF form in Preview?

    I would like to use Preview to fill-out or complete a PDF form.  The default font that Preview uses when I begin typing in a field is too large.  How can I adjust the font size.  And while I'm asking, can I also adjust the font color, weight, emphasis, etc.?

    Whilst in the Preview application, press "Shift - Command - A" (⇧⌘A) simultaneously to show the markup toolbar, or click View, and select "show markup toolbar". There is an icon "A" near the right hand side of the now visible markup toolbar, click this icon to reveal all the font options.

  • All lines on PDF form are not printing

    Greetings to all. I am running Adobe Acrobat XI version 11.0.0 on Windows 7 Home 64bit OS. I have made an attempt to print a PDF form. All of the lines in the form will not print. The properties of the document are:  PDF Producer: MAC OS X 10.7.4 Quartz PDFContext and PDF Version: 1.3 (Acrobat 4.x). My printer is HP PSC 2350 series. There are about 30 lines on the form and out of the 30, 4 lines will not print. This form was not created by me. I saved the PDF from my university's website. Also and strangely, when I go to my printer settings and select Booklet, under Page Sizing & Handling, everything prints perfectly. I did try editing the lines by increasing the stroke width under Content and Editing but all of the lines still will not print. Here is a screenshot of the form from the website. My question is what settings on my printer or adobe acrobat do I need to change? Or what could be the cause of this issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Please do not hesitate to respond if more information is needed.

    Most likely, the fault lies with the application used to fill in the forms,
    which is probably Apple Preview, that is known to cause this problem. You
    can fix the forms with this utility:
    http://blog.practicalpdf.com/2013/08/introducing-the-practicalpdf-fix-form-utility/
    And in the future instruct your users not to use Preview, but only Adobe
    Reader (or Adobe Acrobat).
