PDF is not dynamic in WebDynpro

Hi,
I designed a pdf form in standalone adobe designer 7.1. I saved the file as DYNAMIC pdf. When I test the form standolne the form works.
I have a WDJ with a view, which contains an Interactive Form element. I linked the dynamic pdf to the designer by importing the file in the designer.
But when the WDJ runs and shows the PDF in the browser, the PDF is static and NOT dynamic. What is the reason for this?
The PDF should be dynamic, because I have buttons on it and they do not respond anymore.
Anyhelp will be rewarded.
Kind regards,
Sandhya

Hello Sandhya
Do the following:
1) In your Adobe Livecycle Designer, Select, Edit > Form Properties, in the Default tab, set u201CPreview Typeu201D to u201CInteractive formu201D
2)
Assuming you are using Web Dynpro application, then do the following also:
Place the following code in the wdDoModifyView method of the View where the form is placed.
IWDInteractiveForm iForm1 = (IWDInteractiveForm) view.getElement("<name of your form here");
iForm1.setDynamicPDF(true);
Hope this helps,
Harman

  • PDF does not Print on Adobe reader 8.0 or above versions

    Hi SDN,
    I have a webdynpro application in which I have used Adobe LiveCycle Designer for showing a pdf of Sales Order.
    Now those who are using Adobe reader 8.0 or higher version, the pdf is not getting opened in their systems.
    We have following:
    Adobe LiveCycle Designer : 7.1
    Portal : 7.00 SP9
    Please tell me what can be done to open the pdf in all the Adobe versions.
    Thanks,
    Nikesh Shah
    Any help ?

    Hi Anagha,
    Yes, the pdf is not getting opened in Adobe version 8 or more. I think it's bcs of the LIfe Cycle Designer's version i.e. 7.1. If we upgrade that to 8 or more, will it work?
    Please help.

  • Table of Contents page numbers works for PDF but not for other formats

    Hi,
    I followed exactly was indicated here regarding creation of TOC.
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E10415_01/doc/bi.1013/e12187/T421739T481157.htm
    The page numbers generated correctly for PDF but not for RTF, HTML and XLS.
    (HTML and XLS are understandably not paginated in nature but why not in RTF?)
    Tried to make the simplest example work, with 2 headings each on a separate page. Doesn't work on either MSWord 2003 or 2007.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Regards,

    Hi Kavipriya,
    What is your email address? I have attached a file in Oracle Metalink, under SR 3-5172030861. named test_toc.rtf
    You may use any xml because the template does not use any dynamic binding of values.
    The template is basically 2 pages, the TOC in the 1st page. First TOC item (Heading 1) is in Page 1, and Second TOC item is in Page 2.
    So the end result should be (PDF result from BI Publisher):
    First TOC Item .................. 1
    Second TOC Item ............. 2
    But for RTF it outputs:
    First TOC Item .................. 0
    Second TOC Item ............. 0
    And after doing Print Preview (once or twice)
    First TOC Item .................. Error in Bookmark
    Second TOC Item ............. Error in Bookmark
    Hope this is detailed enough to illustrate the problem.

  • Create PDF/X1A Document Dynamically in PHP

    Hello Everyone,
    This is my first time posting in this forum, so hopefully iv posted in the correct part =)
    I am in the middle of createing a web based system, written in PHP, and one of the requirements of this system is to create a PDF/X1A document dynamically.  The user will input some data into the webpage and then upon submitting the page a new PDF/X1A will be created, at least that is the aim.  I have trawled the intenet with no joy. 
    I have read that i will ba able to create a PDF/X1A document using Photoshop, InDesign and some other Adobe products.  This is not going to be useful in terms of my requirements unfortunatly.
    Please could someone inform me if creating a PDF/X1A document dynamically is possible ?  If it is not, are there any work arounds i can use to fulfil my requirements ?
    Regards,
    -Ben

    It is possible to create PDFs (of any flavor) using programming. You can create your own pdfs if you know the language specification or you can use one of Adobe's LiveCycle Server products to dynamically created pdfs. This latter method is more expensive, but probably easier to work with and easier to scale.

  • ADS: com.adobe.ProcessingException: PDF is not interactive

    Hi All,
    I have a ECC 6.0 ABAP SP12Stack installation and a seperate NW04s SP13 Portal installation. I have done all the configuration steps of ADS integration on those 2 systems.
    I developed a WebDynpro application and used the interactive form object referring to a simple  Adobe form created with transaction SFP. As I test the Webdynpro ABAP application I get the following error "ADS: com.adobe.ProcessingException: PDF is not interactive.  Data can only be imported into interactive forms.(201501)" in UPDATE_PDF method of class CL_WD_ADOBE_SERVICES. Do you have any idea for the reason of this error?

  • Hi I've a big problem with adobe acrobat reader XI pro and I hope you can help me. The problem is; when I past copied text from some pdf books (not all of them) it past symbols only! wherever I past it! and even if I coped that text from another pdf reade

    Hi
    I've a big problem with adobe acrobat reader XI pro and I hope you can help me.
    The problem is; when I past copied text from some pdf books (not all of them) it past symbols only! wherever I past it! and even if I coped that text from another pdf reader (adobe pdf reader, internet browsers, ...etc.).
    This problem started to happen since yesterday when I installed adobe acrobat reader XI pro to try it before I buy it, and before that when I was using the free adobe pdf reader I was totally able to copy any text from any pdf and past it anywhere with nothing wrong.
    What can I do?
    thank you a lot.

    There is no product called Adobe Acrobat Reader Pro. There is
    - Adobe Acrobat Pro ($$)
    - Adobe Reader (free)
    Which do you have? And are you a programmer?

  • PDF File not opening in browser for sharepoint 2010

    Recently we have moved our web application from one server to another in Sharepoint 2010. Back up of entire web application was taken and restored in another server. But in the new server , the PDF files in the document library is not getting opened in browser.
    it always open in browser
    I have already made following changes but didn,t work
    Set browser file handling to Permissive from central admin
    Set "open in browser" in setting s of doc library
    Set the doc library file handling property using $docLib = $web.lists["Your Document Library Title"] $docLib.BrowserFileHandling = "Permissive" $docLib.Update()
    Added "AllowedInlineDownloadedMimeType.Add("Application/Pdf") in web app
    Installed Adober eader in client machine
    Even after trying all these, the PDF files are still opening in Client application(Adobe reader) but not in the browser
    It would have been great help if anybody provide a solution for this. I have been banging head on this for two days

    It would be handy if you didn't double post too.

    To answer your question, you've tried most things that I normally see working, but there may be an extra solution here for you.  The solution 2 Powershell that deals with updating the Inline MimeType may help.

  • PDF file Not opening in Main Table

    Hi,
    I have added PDF lookup field in my main Table in console.
    I m able to import PDF file in PDF table ( after making Allow Invalid PDFs as YES)
    I have also imported PDF file in Main table field.
    But here PDF file is not opening.
    I m able to open PDF file only in PDF table & not in main table.
    Also i am not able to Generate Thumbnail.
    I m getting error:
    Regenerating thumbnail for 'Mahi.pdf'...failed.
    Regeneration of thumbnails complete.
    Can anybody tell me what could be the problem?
    Thanks,
    Mahi

    Hi Maheshwari,
    I have added PDF lookup field in my main Table in console.
    I m able to import PDF file in PDF table ( after making Allow Invalid PDFs as YES)
    I have also imported PDF file in Main table field.
    But here PDF file is not opening.
    You can link the pdf to the Main tabel record by two ways:
    1. Using Import Manager
    2. Using Data Manager itself.
    I have just tried it by the second way and I am able to open the Pdf in the Main Table itself.
    PLease follow these step below:
    1. Import the Pdf in the Pdf table and store the Pdf in the repository itself by choosing the Option - +Store in Repository+
    2.Go to Main Table and double click on the Look up field on the right side. GO to the Data Group Tab and add the Data Group you have created.
    3. Then choose the pdf you want to choose for that particular main table record. You will find the PDf getting attached in the Main Table Record.
    4. Now try and open the Pdf, HopefullyYou will find it opening in the Main Table itself .
    Hope it helps.
    Thanks and Regards

  • PDF files not saving/missing and leaving "aa12345" and "aaa12345" files??? - Solution

    risscand: I have workers that are unable to save and they are seeing an "aaa04916" type file in their working folder. This is causing us to lose work (because we are unable to save over the original file) or send out incomplete documents.
    Mudassir: As I understand when you try to edit and save a document, it directly opens "Save As", is that correct?
    risscand: No. When the user saves normally. Ctrl+S or the "Save" icon via the disk at the top of the page it appears to save however the PDF does not actually rewrite
    risscand: This results in an aaa12345 file in the folder, but an unchanged PDF.
    Mudassir: Okay.
    Mudassir: Thank you for the information.
    Mudassir: I will be glad to help you with this issue.
    risscand: Excellent
    Mudassir: May I know if you are chatting from the issue facing computer?
    risscand: I am not currently experiencing the issue but many of the employees in this office are.
    risscand: I can review the issue and see the files however, our worked is based off of a server.
    Mudassir: Okay.
    Mudassir: Marissa, this error often occurs due to a confict with Acrobat application and Windows Preview.
    Mudassir: In order to resolve the issue, you need to disable the Windows Preview in the Windows Explorer
    Mudassir: Follow the steps below to fix:
    Mudassir: Go to “Computer” or a windows explorer window, click on the “View” tab and then make sure the “Preview pane” is unselected. Then try saving your PDF document again.
    risscand: This option was not used by the users
    risscand:: I just asked one of the individuals who was experiencing the issue and she has never used that option.
    Mudassir: Just a minute.
    risscand: Thanks
    Mudassir: Thank you for your patience.
    Mudassir: Are all the users using Acrobat or Adobe Reader to save the PDF files?
    risscand: Acrobat
    Mudassir: Is that PDF file saved on network?
    risscand: Yes
    Mudassir: Does that users have the complete access to the network drive and are all the users use that PDF at a time?
    risscand: The PDF's are used one at a time. The individual who combines the reports that the workers probably does not have complete access to the network.
    Mudassir: To re-write the PDF which is saved on network, the users need to have complete access. If not, they will get the save as option and they can save that PDF file on their local drive
    Here are the options I got from Customer Service - Hopefully it will help some of you!
    -Riss

    Hi risscand,
    Are you still facing this issue or your issue has been resolved?

  • All files in one group of folders (jpeg, gif, doc, ppt and pdf) do not open.

    I have a lot of files that I use as teaching material (gifs, jpegs, pdfs, web archives, Word files, PowerPoint presentations) that are in a number of different folders and which I store on an external drive, then copy every year to my hard drive when I teach that subject. I update these files and folders, then copy back to the external hard drive when I have finished teaching. These were all fine last year, but when I try to open any of the files, they all have problems. The image files in Photoshop have the error 'unknown or invalid JPEG marker', in Preview the error is 'it may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn't recognise', the PDFs return 'not a supported file type or the file has been damaged', the Word files as to be converted when opened and return nonsense, and the Powerpoint presentations return 'PowerPoint found a problem with content in the file' and after attempting to repair returns 'the file may be damaged'. Any idea what is going on here and how I can fix this? There are 1400 items, which have taken years to compile for my teaching. I have tried opening the files on my external hard drive and on my backup disc, but the same happens.
    I've never posted on a forum before, so I hope this is the right place to ask! Any help is most welcome!

    The backup files are more recent than when I used them a year ago - I have tried them and I still get the same problem.

  • Help! Message "pdf could not be saved because an unknown error occurred. Try saving to a different l

    I had the contents of my (dying) ibook transferred onto my emac. The tech created a new user/desktop on the emac. Now, when I try to open PDF files from a website, I get a drop down window saying this:
    "Downloading - users/myname/desktop/xxxxx.pdf could not be saved because an unknown error occurred. Try saving to a different location."
    Points to note: 1) The "xxxxx.pdf" part of the above message changes each time I try to open a pdf document, even the same one, and it does not show the real name of the document (e.g. CollegeApplication.pdf). The xxxxx.pdf is usually written as gibberish, like "86hgkjh.pdf" or "sdfj99f.pdf."
    2) this never happened on my laptop;
    3) the settings are set in Firefox to download pdf's to my desktop;
    4) I have the latest version of Adobe Reader, which I already tried opening before downloading;
    5) the settings are also set to open pdfs using adobe.

    I had the same problem when I installed Firefox 3, but I think the problem is due to my recent hard drive upgrade. Try changing the download location from "Desktop" in Microsoft Internet Explorer and all other browsers (Safari, Firefox, etc.) to whatever default location you prefer. I never use Internet Explorer, but I think somehow my settings were corrupted when I upgraded my hard drive. I found this solution on another site also.
