Entered Verbiage not appearing in exported PDF version of form

Hello,
I have created an online application in Forms Central. It works great, but if the end-user enters too much verbiage in any of the sections, it is often cut-off in the exported PDF version. Is there a way to ensure all entered verbiage appears in the exported PDF version of the completed form?
Thank you.
-Mark

Hi,
And now you can make the field taller in the design tab, so that you can print all the text.
Or you can print the Detail view.
Please refer http://forums.adobe.com/message/5515704#5515704
Hope it will help you.

Can you affect the exported pdf-version???

Hi,
you can influence the version of the created pdf doc witin the EXPORT OR EXPORTTODISK function?
which Pdf version is produced by which CR version??
Background:
I have an ocx (which I cannot change), that shows only version 5.1 of PDF documents without any compatibility problem message.
I now export a pdf with EXPORT OR EXPORTTODISK function in CR 2008 as Crystal created a document that my ocx can not display without further inquiry.
Does anyone have an idea how I can work around the problem??
THANK YOU!

You can not change the pdf version what we export to.
The engine exports to a specific version (I believe it is 2.1, but may be newer now) and there is no way to change it.

PDF Version in Export, CS5.5

Printer requires pdf to be exported in v. 1.6 or lower, and reports that my exported file, created in LR3 CS 5.5, is actually rendering the output in PDF v. 1.7.
Would you please point me to the place where the output pdf version can be changed.

Can you add page numbers to the PDF version?

Can you add page numbers to the PDF version?

Hello saradianapasik,
If you start with a document created with Acrobat Pro, or exported from your word processor as a .pdf, then you should include page numbers in that originating application. After you have exported a .pdf form from FormsCentral, it is no longer editable.
I hope that helps,
Brian

Getting message while opening PDF file exported from InDesign

Hi,
We have created an interactive PDF in InDesign. In this PDF we have created 15-20 pages which are link together and next previous button is provided.
We are using InDesign CS3 and PDF reader 9. PDF is exported for version 8 onwards. Exported PDF is working properly on our machine but our client is receving the following message on their machine if they try to open this PDF (they have PDF reader 8):
"Please Note: You cannot save a completed copy of this form on your computer. If you would like a copy for your records, Please fill it in and print it"
We have not used any kind of form in my PDF only internal page hyperlinks are given.
Attached screen shot is given for your reference.
Is there as way for remove this message so it doen not appear? I would really appriciate if anybody can help me out.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Regards,
Deepika

Deepika,
The alert dialog your screen shot depicts will only display if there is some kind of form annotation present in a PDF that is not "Reader Enabled".
Look closer at your 'final' PDF.
A PDF, not "Reader Enabled", that contains any form annotations will, when opened by Adobe Reader,
result in the alert dialog that you mention. A "hard wired" default.
Note that the forms document message bar can be "off" by a selection in Adobe Reader / Acrobat Preferences.
Select the 'Forms' category. Select "Always hide forms document message bar".
Be well...

Substitution string used in custom Report column name does not display in PDF version of report

I am using Apex 4.2.6.00.03, Apex Listener 2 via Glassfish4 and have set up all my applications and reports on this system. We previously used Oracle 10.2, with Apache with a custom fopping document.
My issue is that I have a report that has custom column headings using a substitution string to pull in the begin or end date for the report. When the report is run and displayed, the column headings appropriately display the date. However, when I try to set up the Print to PDF option, the column headings are not displaying correctly.
Is it possible to use a substitution string in the column heading? I am able to use the substitution string in the Page Header and Page Footer and those display correctly.
In the Report Attributes setup I have set the "Strip HTML" to Yes and I have four columns that are using the &"ITEM NAME". string. See below for actual display:
The report column headings in APEX displays correctly (bold is the substitution detail):
Fund Account Description Balance 07/01/2014 Budget/Goal FY 14-15 YTD Actual 02/28/2015 Ending Balance 02/28/2015
In the Print Attributes setup, when I get to the Report Columns section, the Heading column displays the headings as set up in the Report Attributes custom and I am not able to edit these names. See below:
In the version of the report that is Printed to PDF I get the following for display:
Fund Account Description Balance %26amp;P347_BEGIN_DATE. Budget/Goal %26amp;P347_FY. YTD Actual %26amp;P347_END_DATE. Ending Balance %26amp;P347_END_DATE.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Pat

First, the misspelled word is a test object and not data.
Second, all data display correctly.
Third, text object is displaying the old misspelled word.
Fourth, I have eliminated the possibility that problems in of my pdf export routine cause this issue by exporting directly from Crystal Reports Viewer. I print the report to the crystal report viewer. The report looks good. The text object is spelled correctly. Then I click the Crystal Reports viewer's export button in the left upper corner and I export to both EXCEL and PDF. The excel export looks good. The pdf export is misspelled. All the export occurs internally in Crystal reports.
Fifth, I found outthat all users who have this problem have the ADOBE PDF writer installed. I am just suspicious that ADOBE writer is interferring with Crystal export
Sixth, I cannot recreate this problem on any of our development and test machines. It only happens on end-user laptops.
Seventh, I changed the name of the report that had this problem and created a new version and installed on end-user laptop. The behaviour still persists. User saved the report as both RPT and PDF. RPT export looks good. PDF version has the spelling problem. Data on both reports is up-to-date and good. I copied the same RPT export to my PC and exported it to PDF, the pdf looks good. That is why I think something on the end-users laptops is causing the export to use some cached template.
One more thing I did was to change the report name in VB.NET project, recreated a new package and installed on end-user's laptop. The same exact problem is still there.
I have worked with Crystal Reports more than 15 years and I have never such a weird behaviour before. I know this sounds very weird. We are all baffled by what is happening.

PDF version not clear on certain pages

When I make a PDF version of my Pages document, any page that contains a shape has degraded quality font. The only two fonts I'm using are Verdana and Times New Roman.
Any suggestions?

Peter,
What you are saying makes perfect sense. I know transparencies and other effects can cause problems - for example in iweb, adding effects to HTML text turns the whole text box into a graphic. However, this doesn't seem to be the issue here.
In my doc, I have no graphics overlapping text boxes. The graphic is well apart from the text box. It's as if adding graphics anywhere on a page causes the whole page to be rendered as a graphic - perhaps then being rendered, as you suggest, as a bitmap.
To add to the confusion, I thought I had this figured out. I had been using TIFF files and tried JPG instead. It seemed to make a difference. However, continued testing showed that was NOT what was making the difference . . .
Now I'm finding that the PDF is rendering differently depending on which screen I'm viewing it on, what magnification I'm using and what program I'm using to view it!
I'm running a macbook w. Intel core 2 duo, Snow Leopard. I also have a 22" Samsung monitor attached for a dual monitor setup. When I open the PDF on the macbook screen (using Adobe Reader) at 122%, the text page with graphics looks OK (not great, but OK) when I drag it over to the bigger monitor, it initially looks the same. However, if I re-size it on the bigger monitor, say go from 122% to 125%, I get the jagged edges text look again!
OK, next step: Go to a different macbook, boot up in bootcamp & Windows. Same PDF with graphics looks fine in Adobe Reader in any magnification.
Another option: Try on old mac G5 power PC (running Leopard) Same PDF looks fine in Preview. However, download latest version of Adobe Reader and we're back to the Jagged text look.
Go back to original, dual-monitor macbook and try same PDF in Preview. Looks fine.
So, the issue appears to be specifically how Adobe Reader is rendering the PDF??
Using Adobe Reader 8.1.6 on main macbook, 7.0 on Windows and the latest 9 something, on G5
At this point, I am using Verdana font, 13 pt., dark gray on a white background in my doc. It appears I can export from Pages with graphics to PDF and get a PDF that renders on-screen in MOST cases in acceptable form. However, I wish I felt better that ALL by clients were seeing the same thing (Isn't that the whole idea behind PDFs?) rather than have to worry that some may see poorly rendered text.
I very well may still be missing something here, so if anyone has any other ideas, please let me know!
And, thanks Peter for the suggestion!

PDF version from BOE SDK

Hi,
We have installed BOE 4.0 and 32 bit SDK to interact with the app server. When we create PDF from crystal reports it is giving the PDF default version 1.7.
Is there any way to change the PDF version to 1.5 hence our dependent systems does not have the capability to read the PDF version 1.7
Thanks for your help.
FebiginR

There is no way to change the version of the PDF the SDK or the CR designer export.

"View Pdf After Exporting" Moves Acrobat to Background

Wow, even this forum is buggy. I just lost my entire post because the "server wasn't responding". That'll teach me to copy and paste my post into a text file before hitting the Post Message button.
Here goes again:
I've tried getting an answer for this problem in the InDesign forum with no response after a week.
OSX 10.6.7
Acrobat 9.4.3
InDesign 7.0.3
Conditions:
Step 1) Only InDesign is running. I make a pdf with the "View Pdf After Exporting" box checked. The pdf is created, Acrobat opens and displays my pdf for me as it did in 8 and before.
Step 2) With only InDesign and Acrobat running, I repeat step 1 above, I get the same result EXCEPT that Acrobat immediately pops into the background.
This never happened with any version previous to InDesign CS5 and happened before I installed Acrobat 9, sending Acrobat 8 into the background.
This is a very frustrating bug.

This is the best place to report bugs. They get counted and logged: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform

Update PDF Version

Hello,
Our system is currently exporting PDF documents in PDF version PDF-1.3 through the program RSTXPDFT4. We would like to know if it is possible to update to newer versions and how.
Regards,
Ricardo Carreñ

You can't update the PDF version.
The agent JFMERGE on the server is what creates the PDF. The only way you can get it to create a more current version of PDF would be to upgrade your server to the current version of the software. IIRC you probably don't want to do that because version 5.3 was the last that included "filler" features.
The "driver" for the Designer software is a file named PDF.ICS located in the "config" folder whereever the software is installed. But it isn't really a driver. It contains certain information for the Designer software at design time and compile time (take a look at it using Notepad). In all likelihood the version I have for version 5.6 is a duplicate of yours.

Can I simultaneously save a form as a PDF and export to Excel?

Can I simultaneously save a form as a PDF and export to Excel?

Regardless of your goal yes, it would be separate steps - but let me see if I understand what you want so I can explain better...
I am assuming you want to export the response data to Excel, this is an action from the "File" = "Export Responses" menu item and can export all of the response data to Excel at one time (also has the option of PDF or CSV). That would be done as one step, exporting to Excel. If you also wanted a PDF version of the table with all responses you could repeat that and select "PDF" the second time.
If you want PDF's of each individual response (you can "Download Response as PDF" which is a PDF that looks like the original form filled out) then that is also a separate step and has to be done individually for each response you want to download as PDF.
Thanks,
Josh

Supported pdf versions and mouse over problem for Xcelsius 2008 SP3

Hi,
Have below queries regarding Xcelsuis 2008 SP3.
(1) Encountered last character truncation problem for the x-axis and y-axis labels when viewed using adobe reader versions higher than 9.0.0. Viewing the pdf doc using adobe reader v9.0.0 has no label truncation problem. Preview in Xcesius is also ok.
(a) Y-axis label - eg. No. of students. The last char [s] is truncated when exported to pdf.
(b) X-axis label u2013 when labels are oriented vertically, they are very close to the x-axis. The last char is truncated.
Please advise what is the supported pdf versions for Xcelsius 2008?
Any workaround to overcome the truncation problem?
(2) Mouseover in charts. When the series name has < symbol, Xcelsius truncates the remaining text that's after the < symbol.
Is this a limitation that < symbol cannot be used? Any workarond for this? Any document to reference on the limitations of Xcelsius? e.g. If series name is '>1 and <=2', mouse over desc becomes '>1 and '.
Thanks and Regards.

Hi ,,There are a lot of developments in SP3 version. But some loopholes which I caughtu2026
1. The value button/spinner is no longer supporting a cell having some formula. Also the time it is taking to load data which depends on value button/spinner as a result of change in it, is comparably very high as compared to earlier version.
2. Still there is no component like pre-load animation. So it is difficult to know weather the tool is running or not when one selects an option in some selector.
3. One still finds it difficult to work with a large range of data/complex spread sheet in xcelsius as it crashes while exporting.
4. Export to excel still needs Tomcat Web server,Java help. It is not simplified.

Safe PDF version when merge files

I've worked in separate .indd files and export each file to PDF (version 1.3). When I merge PDFs in Acrobat, merget files is with changed version (probably default).
I tried to find where are settings in merging, but failed. Can you help me?

Hi Sukrit,
It's strange to have no possibilities to change default version!
It's strange when merging PDFs to change their initial PDF version!
So in this way need to produce individial PDFs (in PDF 1.3), merge it (Acrobat change to PDF 1.6), save it to .ps and distill it (to original PDF 1.3). Very, very inefficient!!!
