PDF WEB form returned to me as PDF

This is all new to me. I need to attach a fillable PDF to our website and receive the same form back in PDF form not as a FormsCentral "view responses" spreadsheet. How do I go about doing that?
I have the form uploaded to FormsCentral. I don't know where to go from there.
Help...

When you are saving your design as a PDF you can simply select the "Don't Collect Responses" option. This will create a PDF that you can distribute and collect via email or other service.

How to retain focus in Web forms 6i item when displaying pdf image

How to retain focus in Web forms 6i item when displaying pdf image in a multi-record block?
Hello.
I have a Web Forms 6i program (version Forms 6.0.8.19.2) running in a 3-tier application. The web form program has a multi-record block containing invoices. When navigating to a record, the form should display the PDF invoice image which is stored in an Oracle 8.1.7 database as a BLOB in another window. When user press down-arrow, the next PDF invoice image should be displayed.
I am able to accomplish the functionality above by using web.show_document('URL', target') in the when-new-record-instance. The URL being called is a PL/SQL Web Toolkit stored procedure using wpg_docload.download_file built-in.
The problem is that the focus is lost on the Webform and the focus is shifted to the PDF image window when you navigate to the next record using down-arrow. I want to retain the focus in the form as this is a data-entry form, the operator will use down-arrow to go to the next-record rather than the mouse. I also only want to do this for this Invoice Entry form and NOT to all forms.
Please advise how to resolve this problem. Thank you.
Regards,
Armando

Magesh,
the issue of a SSO protected form showing the logon dialog is a knwon issue for Windows200 and the Oracle9iAS base release. If you applied Forms Patch 1 then this should be solved. Hope that I am right in that you are using Oracle9iAS and not Oracle9iDS. Do you see the Single Sign-On logon screen or the Forms logon dialog directly? Check the forms90.conf file in teh forms90/server directory as this contains the Form sso settings (mod_osso) which by default is commented out and therefore inactive. You need to remove the commenting '#' characters and make sure that each sentence having a '#' in front, after that starts on a new line.
The Forms deployment documentation within the Oracle9iAS docu provides this information too.

Pdf web forms no longer open within browser but are instead downloaded as PDFs. I can't do my job, how do I get web forms to work again??

I need to know why pdf web forms are no longer opening within a browser page where they can be filled out and submitted to the website in question. This is a huge part of my job and now I can't do my work in this browser.

"Where do I find my hundreds of dollars of downloads I have done since 2005?"
They will only be where you put them If you are doing the very basics, then they will be on your computer and they will be in your backup copy of your computer.
The itunes store is not global at all, never has been. You cannot redownload your content from another country. You can only use the countrys itunes store for the country that you are physically located.

.pdf web forms

Is there way to deliver these forms, over the web, so that when the user submits it, the .pdf is sent to a particlar e-mail address (like standard "form mail" for HTML forms) AND includes intact digital signature/ID information.

It appears that Adobe Reader has some real limitations when it comes to .pdf forms, and digital signatures in particular. I have been trying to create a form that can be digitally signed but multiple users. The only way an Adobe Reader user can add a digital signature, that I have had any success with, is if the .pdf is attached to an e-mail. If they get the .pdf in any other way, they are unable to get the digital signature/sign document window to pop up when they click the digital signature field.
Has anyone had any success with Adobe Reader and digital signatures? Is this issue unique to my organization? Users are on Acrobat Reader v.8

Filling in PDF forms from web forms

I have acrobot pro, and can build PDF files. What I don't know how to do is build a web form that'll fill in PDFs, and then make a copy to the server, or email the pdf to the person who filled in the form.
What forum is the correct place to ask this question? I don't want to be irritating people by asking in the wrong place.

This forum is fine, you just may want to provide more details. Acrobat's help has more information on creating forms, as do a number of tutorials at AcrobatUsers.com.
Submitting the entire PDF either to a web server or sending it by email is easy, but if it has to work with Reader, the form has to be Reader-enabled. You can do this in Acrobat, but there is a 500 form limit on the number of returned forms Iincluding hardcopies) that you can use data from if you distribute the document to more than 500 users. When you post a Reader-enabled document on a publicly accessible web site, you are effectively distributing it to an unlimited number or people.
An alternative is to set up the form to submit just the form data to a web server or send it via email. There are no licensing restrictions for this. The form data can then be later imported back into a blank form, stored in a database, or the data file archived.
Much of what you asked about does not involve Acrobat directly, but rather programming of the server to respond to a form submission.

I am unable to use my client' web forms that are required for my job. It's a pdf that can be filled out and submitted within a web page. new firefox will only download and open as a regular pdf. NOT OK! HELP!!

Generate pdf from web form

How can I create a web form that will generate a pdf of everything in the form?

Jose,
i suggest you start with looking at the status of the report with id=14511 in the logs of the reportserver. You can find these from the Oracle Entreprise Manager by selecting the reportserver -link, than follow the failed/completed task-links.
If the report finished succesfully, Internet Explorer probably tried to show the report before it was finished. If this is the case, you can build a small timer that waits for the report to finish or that queries the report server if the report is finished before you trie to show the report.
Questions:
Can you show the report when you enter the url to the report manually in Internet Explorer?
Do you use Headstart?

PB 12.5.1 Web Forms save as PDF

I'm having trouble creating PDF files in a Web Forms app deployed to a new server. I've done this successfully a few times using apparently identical configurations, so I'm not sure what's going on. Facts about the situation:
1. PB Classic 12.5.1 Web Forms target
2. IIS 7.5 on a remote Windows Server 2008 R2 server
3. Ghostscript 8.71
4. To determine whether Ghostscript was the problem, I installed a Win32 version of the PB app on the IIS server computer and tested. SaveAs() works as expected in the Win32 target.
5. To determine whether file system permissions were a problem, I used the Web Forms app to SaveAs() a text document and performed the DownloadFile(). The file downloads as expected.
6. It is the SaveAs() function call that is failing. The line
dw_report.SaveAs(<filename>, PDF!, FALSE)
returns -1
Thanks in advance for any suggestions...

Ronnie,
Here is some code that I use in a webform application to create a PDF file and send it as an attachment. Remember that you have to do MapVirtualPath so you can find the file after you do dw_1.saveas...
Also, when I had trouble it was because I named my printer 'Sybase Datawindow' instead of 'Sybase Datawindow PS'.
Chris Pollach recently posted some great step by step installation procedures for 32 and 64 bit machines.
Best,
Paul

I have imported a PDF form (created in adobe acrobat XI pro) into FormsCentral. I now want to convert this document into a web form so I can embed it into my website. HOW DO I DO THIS?

I took a word document I had created and added fields to it in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro. I then imported the PDF in Forms Central and now I am stuck. All I am able to do with it in FormsCentral is add a submit button. It will not allow me to edit the document in FormsCentral. What I ultimately need to do is get this converted to a web form so that I can embed it into our company website. Additionally, once it's converted, I need to add an option for the user to attach their resume with the file before submitting. I have looked all over the web and I cannot find an answer as to whether or not I can convert PDFs to web forms in FormsCentral. This will ultimately determine whether or not the company decides to purchase these programs after the trial version has ended in a few days.

I tried that first, but FormsCentral does not have the capability to create tables. The form I need to create is more advanced than what FormsCentral allows. Do you know if there is a way to create or somehow import a table when creating a web based form on FormsCentral?

Using Web Service from LiveCycle PDF Dynamic Form.

I have developed Staff Attendance Sheet about 7 years ago using Microsoft Office Web Componenets Data Access Pages (OWC DAP).
See image below of the current report using OWC DAP:
http://bit.ly/cAfeYs
Since we are moving our legacy systems to SAP, this report will have to be re-implemented using Adobe LiveCycle PDF which is connecting to Web Service over SAP Systems (since OWC does not connect to Web Service).
The SAP development team have developed the initial webservice which generates the required data.
I have developed the initial version of the LiveCycle PDF, which can be downloaded from this link:
http://bit.ly/9KBgm0
The following is a screen snapshot of the LC Desinger Form:http://bit.ly/cxMK62
When the web service is executed from inside PDF the result looks as follows:
http://bit.ly/cacbCg
The webservice accepts the following required parameters:
1. Period: YYYYMM. User Specified Value.
2. Staff ID: 9999999. It must be supplied automatcially to the web service and it must be the Windows ID of the User Logged In to Windows
Domain.
Other parameters are optional.
Assumptions:
==========
1. I am not using any Adobe Forms Server Technology. I can use LiveCycle Desinger ES2 and LiveCycle Reader Extensions Server.
2. I can alse develop using .NET to get the Logged In User ID (Windows), generate the XDP from ASPX Page and attach the XML to the XDP.
3. We are using IE8 with Adobe Reader 9 Plugin (IE add-on) to display LiveCycle PDF inside IE.
Questions:
========
1. First time the webservice is executed, I will get a prompt to allow/deny execution of the webservice. This is a security issue here, becuase we do not want any user to know the link to the Web Service. How we can hide the link to the webservice and prevent any user from getting the link ?
2. How I can stop the Prompt to Allow/Deny execution to the Web Service for good ? As you know, users will get confused, and when we launch this PDF, it will generate a lot of calls to the Service Desk (more than 1000 users).
3. The Web Service uses Simple User Name/Password for authentication to run the webservice. I need to embed the User Name/Password inside
the PDF, and also prevent any user for getting them, how ?
4. I want to send the Staff ID Parameter to the Web Service Automatically which is the Logged In User ID (Windows). This is the same value of the "Login Name" which can be accessed using Acrobat JavaScript. But the problem, this script must be trusted, and it will be a long story. Any ideas how to implement this requirement using simple methods ?
5. If I manage to send the Staff ID Parameter to the Webservice automatically (Logged In User ID), also, I want to prevent the user from sending a different user ID, ie, prevent him from using Import Data to Form to specify a Different User ID for the Webservice Parameter. How ?
I appreciate your help if you have any ideas about the above.
Tarek.

Hi Tarek,
First of all, Thank for your replying.
I have developing Adobe LiveCycle xdp form with a button. The SAP Web Service will be called when the button is pressed.
Before that, I ‘m able to call another ASP.NET web services by using SOAP.request call. However, when I apply the code to call SAP web service, it doesn’t work. I checked that the web service is valid. And I found that there is something wrong when implementing the SOAP.request call. But I have no idea what wrong is it. So, I beg your help
The following is the code in the click event of the button:
//mainData.sfMain.Button7[1]::click - (JavaScript, client)
    var webServiceEndPoint = "http://xxxxxxx.xxxxxxx.com:8000/sap/bc/srt/wsdl/bndg_DEDB492BB032E7F1B09F001CC4FBCEC9/wsdl11/allinone/ws_policy/document?s ap-client=300";
    var staffIDInput = "9999999";
    var oAuthenticator = {
    Username: "usr",
    Password: "pw"
app.alert("1");
    var response = SOAP.request({
       bEncoded: false,
       cResponseStyle: SOAPMessageStyle.Message,
       cURL: webServiceEndPoint,
       oRequest: {"urn:Z_RFC_GET_STAFF_BANK_INFO":{A_STAFF_ID: staffIDInput}},
       cAction: "urn:sap-com:document:sap:rfc:functions",
        oAuthenticate: oAuthenticator
app.alert("2");

How can I add a digital download (pdf) to an autoresponder from a web form?

I have a simple web form on my site, name and email. I know how to access and edit the autoresponder email, but I dont know how to add a digital download. I want the auto responder to include a PDF. Can anyone help me with this?

Don't know if you've resolved this, but I would put the PDF in the Media Downloads then just add the link within the autoresponder of the form.
Hope this helps,

How do one can upload a file (a PDF, doc etc) while filling a web form through chrome or safari? It is possible to upload a photo from the camera role, but other file types can not be uploaded.

How do one can upload a file (a PDF, doc etc) while filling a web form through chrome or safari? It is possible to upload a photo from the camera role, but other file types can not be uploaded.

For a variety of reasons, mostly related to security, the iOS operating system limits what can be done with respect to file uploading and downloading. But whenever you encounter a limitation like this always think, "There must be an app for this."

How to convert Smart Form into PDF format and return the result in BAPI?

I want to convert a Smart Form into PDF format and return the result in BAPI.
can anyone tell me how it can be done with related example
regards
pranay

hi,
smart form to pdf--
All you have to do is call your SF to get OTF and then concert it to PDF. Works like charm:
DATA: p_output_options TYPE ssfcompop,
p_control_parameters TYPE ssfctrlop.
p_control_parameters-no_dialog = 'X'.
p_control_parameters-getotf = 'X'.
CALL FUNCTION v_func_name "call your smartform
EXPORTING
output_options = p_output_options
control_parameters = p_control_parameters
IMPORTING
job_output_info = s_job_output_info.
call function 'CONVERT_OTF_2_PDF'
tables
otf = s_job_output_info-otfdata
lines = t_pdf
and if u need more u can check below links also
Check the below links..

Pdf form -- Web form?

I created a pdf fillable form using Acrobat 9 and imported it into FormsCentral. Everything works fine! Is it possible now to make the form fillable as a web form? That would be not just a homerun, but a grand slam for me!

Hi;
This isn't something you can do with FormsCentral, the imported PDF allows you to distribute a PDF with a Submit button that collects the data back in FormsCentral for analasys but does not provide a URL or web version of the form.
Thanks,
Josh
