Preview in LifeCycle Designer ES

When I try switching to the preview tab it momentar
ily brings up adobe acrobat professional with an error box it doesn't say error
it just has a question mark in the box and an okay at the bottom right. It is a major hassle to close the form and then bring it up in Adobe Acrobat and then keep switching back and forth.

The new versionof Acrobat doesn't come with LifeCycle Designer.

Adobe LifeCycle Designer 8 - Fillable Forms - remove mouseover border

Hi there,
I am using Adobe 8 LifeCycle Designer to create textboxes on a existing pdf so that the users can type & print (in Reader) instead of printing & writing.
I created textfields on all the places I wanted and saved it. When I open the pdf in a acrobat reader, I can see a blue background on the textfield area which is ok with me. But when I move my mouse to click & type I see a black border which I dont want. I do not see the blue background & the border when I do a preview in the Lifecycle designer.
Thanks for your answer.
Raaj

Hi Raaj,
That is standard behaviour. In Reader the Highlight feature is turned on, which gives the light blue fill and the border highlight.
You can control some aspects of the highlight function using script, see here: http://assure.ly/***6tn.
For example, the following JavaSript in the docReady event of the root node would turn off the highlighting:
app.runtimeHighlight = false;
Good luck,
Niall

Submit button issue in Acrobat 8 Professional/LifeCycle Designer

I am using Acrobat 8 Professional and LifeCycle Designer 8.0 on a PC with XP Pro. I first made forms using the default email submit button and had an XML data file submitted.
I'm now making the forms to submit as a pdf file rather than an XML file. I selected a regular button rather than the email submit button provided and made it a submit button to be submitted as a pdf.
The forms are being sent as pdf files attached to emails using Outlook. The issue is that every computer has a different "reaction" to this submit button. My computer (PC), when I tested the forms,everything was fine - Outlook opened and I was able to submit the file. On another PC in my office, when she clicked the submit button, nothing happened at all. On a PC at home, I got an error message "this operation is not permitted." And someone on a Macintosh did not even get a submit button showing up on the pdf.
We need to be able to send these files out so that everyone can complete them easily. I would appreciate any ideas on how to make the submit button so that it works on all platforms and computers.
Thank you so much,
Marcy

Thank you to you both for your suggestions.
Actually, Bill, this will not be a controlled environment at all. We want to be able to email forms to all of the 80 parents in the school, and have the parents complete them as pdf's and submit the information back to us as a complete pdf form. This opens up the potential for 80 different computers/ISPs/environments. And of course, my supervisor wants it seamless and easy with no glitches for all 80!! So as you can see, I have my challenge with this project.

Cannot upload a pdf file created with LifeCycle designer ES 10.0

Hi
I am trying to upload a pdf document but each time I have the following error message:
I tried many tricks like changing the acrobat plugin and using the default PDF viewer instead, I uninstalled and reinstalled all the Firefox plugins, I tried to upload it from IE... but none of these succeeded. I have the latest version of acrobat reader 11.0.7 and the pdf document id secured by a password and was generated using Adobe LifeCycle designer ES 10.0. How can I solve this issue? Thanks in advance

In your browser make sure the default PDF Viewer is Adobe Reader

BPM 7.3 - Adobe Lifecycle Designer 9.0

Hi guys,
I`m a PI developer and quite new to SAP BPM, only took part in the SAP training several months ago.
Now my colleague installed a BPM 7.3 system and I`m trying to implement some processes starting with
the sample of the training.
At the moment I try to connect Adobe Lifecycle Designer with the NWDS to use Adobe Forms.
Following note 1522483 I choose Adobe Lifecycle Designer 9.0 and installed it.
During the installation my old version 8.2 was recognized and as described in the note it should be updated.
At the end of the installation there was an error report indicating that there was some trouble during update
of the installation
Error description: Not Available
ErrorCode: -2147467259
State: Install on Update
Type: File
Dest: C:\Programme\Adobe\Designer 9.0\FormDesigner.exe
Source: C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\jogugel\Desktop\TEMP\BPM\Adobelifecycledesigner9\Adobe\Designer 9.0\FormDesigner.exe
when I edit the created xdp file in NWDS I could for example create a new data connection specifying the created xsd file, but I am not able to save any changes.
In the Error log following errors are visible:
openDocumentWithBaseUrl() NOT successfully called (maybe too old version of WDAdobeControl.dll?).
File: <C:\Knowledge_local\BPM_BRM\NWDS 7.3 workspace.jdi\LocalDevelopment\PO_DEMO_SC\exsignodeloitte.ch\po_product_demo\pr\pm\_comp\src\PurchaseRequestForm.xdp>
Path: <C:\Knowledge_local\BPM_BRM\NWDS 7.3 workspace.jdi\LocalDevelopment\PO_DEMO_SC\exsignodeloitte.ch\po_product_demo\pr\pm\_comp\src\> ...
Trying to call openDocument() instead ... [Error: com.sap.fp.is.ide.adobetemplatedesigner.AdobeDesignerEditorPart Thread[main,6,main]]
and a second error:
NativeWrapper.openDocumentWithBaseUrl() returns false because rgdispid is null
[Error: com.sap.fp.is.ide.adobetemplatedesigner.NativeWrapper Thread[main,6,main]]
I already searched for this error in SDN and the web, but without result.
The NWDS version I am using is 7.3 SP02 PAT0001
Does anybody has an idea what the reason for this error could be and how to solve it,
maybe I am using two incompatible versions? Is there a way to check or guide describing this?
Any help appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Kind regards,
Jochen
Beforehand I already tried Designer 8.2

Hi John,
thanks for your answer.
I deinstalled and installed the Lifecycle Designer from sratch again.
Unfortunately the same error arises.
openDocumentWithBaseUrl() NOT successfully called (maybe too old version of WDAdobeControl.dll?).
Any suggestions?
Kind regards,
Jochen

Hi Sweta,
Create the interface attributes of type string and xtring type.
Create node in the context of type graphics. bind the interface fields to the graphic node context element properties -
Graphic content, field of xzstring type and mimetype to be string/any char data type of suitable length.
In layout drag and drop the image field and bind it to the graphic element.
In yoour report programme-
do the code as berlow to pass the graphic data -
<i>CALL METHOD cl_ssf_xsf_utilities=>get_bds_graphic_as_bmp
EXPORTING
p_object = 'GRAPHICS'
p_name = '<mime type graphic name>'
p_id = 'BMAP'
p_btype = 'BCOL' "BMON if monochrome
RECEIVING
p_bmp = w_binary
EXCEPTIONS
not_found = 1
internal_error = 2
OTHERS = 3.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno
WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
ENDIF.</i>
in the call <form function module>
pass the inerface values for
xstring (graphic field) to be w_binary (import parameter of the previous method)
and mime type to be 'image/bmp'.
This would work.
Hope fully you may be able to see a tutorial on this soon ;).

Error during installing Adobe LifeCycle Designer

Hi all,
I am trying to install Adobe LifeCycle Designer 8.1 , already downloaded all files from service marketplace.
But while running set up,getting below error message:
The SAP Front-End Installer executable is unable to process the XML files.Restart the uninstallation with the
NwSapSetup executable installed on the workstation.
Do anyone knows about this error message.
Thanks in advance.
Kiran

It seems that I solved the problem by myself by deleting the 11.0 subdirectory in <AppData>\Roaming\Adobe\Designer.
Afterwards, the application started normally and the settings were created from scratch.

Problem with Adobe LifeCycle Designer and NWDS

Hi,
I have a Problem using the LifeCycle Designer in NWDS. The LifeCycle Designer is installed but every time I am trying to start it from the NWDS there is an error - Could not find the required product. Install SAP Interactive Forms - Adobe LiveCycle Designer...... .
Does anybody have an idea?
Thanks!
best regards

Hi,
I had the same issue.
the versions were these:-
ALCD->8.1
NWDS->7.0.114
whenever I was trying to edit the interactive form the same error was thrown.
So I removed the Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.1 from my machine.
Installed Adobe LiveCycle Designer 7.1 in place.
Now it is working fine.
Don't know the exact reasons why it was not working, but still keeping a copy of the 7.1 in your machine will help.

Edit previous lifecycle designer file, now on mac

I made a interactive PDf in lifecycle designer a couple of years ago when I was on PC, now i am exclusively mac and they want me to update the file. I am only updating the logo and small print, not the interactivity.
How on earth do I do this without recreating from scratch?
Thanks for any help!!
See link for file: http://maddesignusa.com/test/UniversalWorksheetChooser10_09.pdf

You will have to revise it in LiveCycle Designer if you don't want to bother switching over to using Acrobat.
It look like you just have fields on the first page that are used for navigation (apart from the other buttons), so this would be easy to duplicate in Acrobat.

Lifecycle Designer Opening Problems

I use Acrobat 8 with the Lifecycle Designer, but i can only start the designer within an opened Acrobat window with the "New Formula" dialogue.
When i open the designer with his own shortcut, it starts and shows the work space for 1 second and then it closes and starts an normal Acrobat window.
Reinstalling of Acrobat 8 doesn´t help. I've tried it several times.
This isn´t an really bad problem but it is annoying.
Does anybody know how can i solve it, an start the designer directly?

I´ve found the solution for this problem in the bug-forum in here
It is written here

Eine speicherbare PDF mit Adobe LifeCycle Designer ES 2 oder 8.0 erstellen

Hallo AdobeForumMembers,
ich habe in Adobe LifeCycle Designer 8.0 (FirmenVollversion) ein Formular mit Checkboxen und aussfüllbaren Zeilen erstellt und möchte dies nun in einer PDF speichern, die nach dem Ausfüllen auch vom Endbenutzer abgespeichert werden kann. Wenn ich die PDF mit dem aktuellen Adobe Reader öffne, kann die PDF nicht gespeichert werden. Wie oder wo kann ich diese Einstellung denn ändern? Habe schon die Hilfe und das Forum durchgesucht, aber leider nichts gefunden. Habe mir auch die Testversion von ES 2 installiert, aber auch dort finde ich keine Option dafür.
Danke im voraus und mit freundlichen Grüßen

Hallo!
Ich habe schon bemerkt, dass der LCD bei Acrobat XI nicht mehr kostenlos mitgeliefert wird (sondern ein anderes, mehr dialogorientiertes Tool). Der Grund dafür wurde mir beim Kauf von LCD ES4 aber damit angegeben, dass der LCD für den normalen Endanwender zu komplex sei. Er wird wohl vor allem bei SAP-Umgebungen benutzt. Für mich taugt er aber, weil ich mit JavaScript viel Funktionalität einbauen kann.
Wie sich aus LiveCycle Help | Adobe LiveCycle ES4 Supported Platforms ergibt, wird mit LCD ES 4 & SP 1 auch Windows 8 unterstützt. Insofern ist deine Aussage für mich "überraschend".

Integrating adobe lifecycle designer 8.0 with SAPGUI

hello,
I have installed adobe lifecycle desginer 8.0 (which comes with adobe acrobat 8.0 . Now how can i integrate this within the SAPGUI and work on interactive forms. Anybody ?
Thanks,
Shehryar Dahar

hi,
Adobe Lifecycle designer for interactive forms comes as a bundle with the Netweaver installation.
its integrated with Netweaver itself.
my netweaver version # is 2.0.16
then you put a UI element called "interactive form" on your dynpro layout.
when you goto...
Interactive form -> Edit...
it takes you to the Adobe Lifecycle designer... where you can design your interactive form.
i hope this helps,
regards,

Integrate Adobe LIfeCycle Designer 8.0 into NetWeaver Development Studio 7

Hi everyone,
I need to integrate Adobe LIfeCycle Designer 8.0 into NetWeaver Development Studio, the issue is that I have installed Adobe LifeCycle but I wanted to know how in integrated into Netweaver Development Studio 7.0
Thanks very much in advance,
Armando

Hello Armando,
If u have installed NWDS, during the NWDS there is a checkbox to include Adobe LiveCycle Designer.However , NWDS 7 setup includes designer 6.0.
Case 1 : If u have not checked the above checkbox during NWDS installation.You can directly install any Designer version.
Case 2 : If u have checked the checkbox during NWDS installation , when u install designer 7 or 8 it will give a message saying A version of designer already exists,In the above scenario, you will have to either uninstall desginer 6(if possible) or reinstall NWDS without checking the Desinger Checkbox.After that you can install any designer version u want.
Hope it helps,
Regards,
Virag
