Printing chinese characters on a Zebra printer using Adobe Interactive Form
Hello,
We have created an Adobe Interactive Forms in SAP with some words in English and another one in simplified chinese. We have defined a Zebra printer in SPAD with the AZPL203 driver.
When we print the form in the zebra printer some of the chinese characters are printed and some of them no.
Has anyone faced the same problem?
Thanks a lot

Printing chinese characters in a zebra printer using SAP Interactive Forms
Hello,
We have created an Adobe Interactive Forms in SAP with transaction SFP. In this form we have used some words in English and another ones using Simplified Chinese characters . We have defined a Zebra printer in SPAD transaction using Device Type AZPL203.
We have defined an ABAP program to printout this form. When we print it in the zebra printer some of the chinese characters are printed and some of them no.
Has anyone faced the same problem?
Please if this is not the right forum, please could you adress me to the right one?
Thanks a lot

Designing Labels using Adobe Interactive Forms
Is anyone out there using Adobe Interactive Forms to design packaging labels? If so, I'd be interested in hearing about your experiences with this. In particular, I'd like to know if you evaluated third-party label design software and did a comparative analysis with Adobe Interactive Forms as well as the results of your analysis (what were the strengths and weaknesses of each).
We are a medical device manufacturing company, so we have to comply with the FDA's 21 CFR Part 820 regulations so ideally I'd like to get some feedback from another FDA-regulated company.Hi Pedro
in principle, this is the way you need to set up your landscape to work with a 4.7 system.

This is due to possible issues with performance expectations.

AmitHi there,
I am having the same problem. I deployed the same WD with IF on 2 different machines and there everything works fine. I using the same browser (IE6) on all the machines. Where are using Native IF and running Adobe Reader 7.0.8. We are on NW04s SP9.
I tested the ADS Webservice on the machine and that is working fine.....
Hope somebody can tell me where to look.
Thx in advance.
Amit, when you are using IF type "native" the at least run Adobe Reader 7.0.8. Maybe this solves the problem for you.
Kind regards,

Heavy performance issues using Adobe Interactive Form PDFs generated by SAP BPM
Dear experts,
we use Adobe Interactive Form PDFs (generated with LiveCycle Designer) as Human Tasks within SAP BPM processes. The PDFs are generated and transmitted correctly, but when they are opened at the receivers PC, Windows freezes for 2-3 minutes, then the PDF opens and can be filled out and sent back. The next PDFs can be opened much faster, but when the PC is restarted, we get the same problem again. We use Adobe Reader XI (11.0.2) on our clients; is their any know performance issue?
Please note, that we have this problem with EVERY Adobe Interactive Form PDF... I created a simple PDF containing just a field and the client PC still freezes. So it can't be in the form or the scripting. Normal static PDFs can be opend without any problems.
Best regards,
DavidThey haven't really announced it, because there is no product to announce. Rather the opposite.
There are no conversion tools, so far as I know.
XFA forms are a non-starter if you want portability.
AcroForms are a nightmare in themselves, because the functionality is limited in Adobe Reader and varies between absent and weird in other products. No idea about Blackberry support.
You will not find a simple recommendation. Rather, you need to use Acroforms and carefully test everything (EVERYTHING: no assumptions) on every platform you intend to support.
Yes, rather unsatisfactory, but until Adobe realise that the future is platform equivalence or irrelevance, this is where we are. -
Print Preview in RFx does not show new Adobe Interactive Form
Hello Experts,
I am trying to assign a standard Adobe Interactive form as the output form for SRM RFQ. I have carried out the following steps in customising under "Define Actions for Document Output".
- Selected bid invitation Action Profile = BBP_PD_BID
- Go to "Processing Types"
- Create a new Processing Type called "External Communication"
- Set the following values to the new processing type:
- Form Name = BBP_BID_INV_ADB
- Form Type = P PDF-Based Forms
- Format = BBP_BID_INV_ADB_MAI
- Personalization Type = 5 - Recipeient Variable Replacement
- Save Changes
My problem is that when I go to into the BID (RFx) and click "Print Preview" it picks up the standard Smartform, not the new Adobe form I have added as required.
Please can you advise of any additional config settings or other steps required to ensure that the Adobe Form is called when I click "Print Preview"?
We are on SRM 7.0.
I look forward your response.
Regards,
MattHi Matt could you please tell me how do you solve your issue? I have the same and I cant find the solution.
Thanks a lot

Using Adobe Interactive Form in Retails, manufacturing industries??
Hi,
I am a systems integrator solution provider and have a few customers from retails, manufacturing and supply chain industries.
They want to design label with barcodes (such as those SSCC label for shipping). Which SAP solution is the best and most standard?
I have a couple of options: SmartForms and SAPScript. But I also heard about Adobe Interactive Form. Which one is the most commonly used in the market right now? I don't think there are many users of Interactive Form in this scenario but I am not sure. Which barcode/termal printer supports Adobe Interactive Forms?
Please give me your insight.
Thank you
Jessica AlbaHi Tanmay,
I had the same problem. Try this.
In WebDynpro:
Copy the component and put on a new interface for this Component.
In Transaction SFP:
As "Layout Type" you select "ZCI Layout".
Go to "Utilities" and insert Web Dynpro Script.
Activate and test the Component.
If you insert the Web Dynpro Script later in a Form,
it does not function. You must again put on it.
Anyhow my experience.

Credentials to use adobe interactive form
Hi
I see an OSS note that talks about creating a OSS ticket to SAP requesting them for credentials to use an adobe interactive form.
We are on ECC 5.0 ( WAS 640 ) and intend to generate an adobe interactive form using a combination of adobe livecycle designer ( T.code SFP ) and an ABAP application program that sets the generated pdf property to fillable = 'X'
Question is - is there any extra licensing code required to get this credentials to SAP.
Please reply.Hi Karthik,
Please refer to the below note for your reference on Interactive form licensing:
eason and Prerequisites
The interactive use of PDF forms may be subject to license under certain circumstances.
Solution
Using the tools and using print forms (not interactive) is part of the license of the relevant SAP solution (including NetWeaver).
If the following three criteria apply to you, you must purchase an additional license from SAP for your SAP Interactive Forms:
You create templates for interactive forms.
You create your own customer-specific interactive form templates or change an interactive form template delivered by SAP by adding further interactive fields or changing the data binding of existing interactive fields to the back-end.
(Such modifications exceed cosmetic changes in form templates delivered by SAP such as adding your own logo or static texts, and are therefore subject to license.)
You use interactive forms in a productive system, that is, end users fill in generated PDF forms during business operations.
Note that the additional license also affects interactive forms used by SAP partners (independent software vendors - ISV), who deliver these forms as part of their products developed on the SAP NetWeaver platform.
Current information about licensing is also available on SAP Service Marketplace at http://service.sap.com/Adobe --> FAQs.
The license for SAP Interactive Forms is an official SAP license. For further details, consult your contact person in your local SAP sales office.

Unable to close browser when using Adobe Interactive Form
Hello,
I'm using an Interactive Form in my Web Dynpro application. Everything works fine, but when the view with the Interactive Form is active, I am not able to close the browser window anymore. Moving to another view is also not possible.
I already changed all the options of the Interactive Form but always the same behaviour.
I am developing on Web AS 6.40, Service Pack 11. ADS is installed also with Service Pack 11.
Adobe Reader is Version 7.0 and Adobe Designer is Version 7.1
Has anyone an idea what's wrong?
Thanks for your help!
Best regards

Navigation problem while using Adobe interactive form in web dynpro
Hi frds,

No problem with the first view.. displays everything...
The Problem is when i click the button to nsvigate to the 2nd view, its not loading...
Wait symbol is coming...
Please Help me friends...hi ,
pls use the ZCi layout for the adobe interactive form .
Need to Insert the web dynpro script to the form.
Note: Make sure to upgrade the Adobe Interactive for ZCI type using SFP_ZCI_UPDATE transaction
Subsequently, check whether the update of the ZCI was successfully completed. To do this, open your form in the Adobe LiveCycleDesigner and check the version information of the ZCI script. The ZCI script is available on the "Hierarchy" tab page under the "ContainerFoundation_JS" name. The version must be800.20080513120641.469612.469346.

How to use Adobe Interactive forms with ISR frame work in Webdynpro forJava
Hi,
Anybody worked on Adobe Interactive forms with ISR frame work in Webdynpro for Java in ESS/MSS development.
We have already searched in ISR_Cookbook_2004, however we didn't anything related webdynpro for java in that.
Any information regarding this will be of great help.
Regards
Satish KumarThere are a number of issues here. A form that you created with LiveCycle Designer (XFA) cannot be used with FormsCentral. An Acroform, the kind you can create with Acrobat, can be used with FormsCentral, with certain limitations, one of which is skip logic. A dynamic XFA form allows for this type of thing, but as mentioned, they don't work with FormsCentral. You can set up an Acroform to show/hide or activate/inactivate fields based on selections or entries made in other fields, but you'd have to set this up in Acrobat, not FormsCentral. So you can set up something roughly equivalent to a web form's skip logic, but you'd have to learn how to do this in Acrobat using JavaScript. There is a separate Acrobat JavaScript forum here if you have any questions.

Is it possible to use Adobe Interactive Forms in SAP (ABAP) Trial Version?
Dear All,
i need some help concerning the usage of Adobe Interactive Forms in SAP (ABAP) Trial Version.
I installed SAP Netweaver 7.01 (ABAP Trial Version) and i would like to use the Adobe Interactive Form editor (transaction SFP). Is this trial version prepared for this? Is it possible to edit and test Interactive Forms in the ABAP Trial Version too?
Somebody told me that he installed Adobe Lifecycle Designer 7.1 but the layout manager part of the editor shortdumped when he wanted to go back to other parts of the editor or he wanted to save what he did...
Is it enough to install Adobe Lifecycle Designer 7.1? Is there something else to install or configure?
Thank you for your help in advance.
All the best, P. Phil.Yes, you need the lifecycle designer installed. That should be enough to work with the SFP transaction. But to actually use the form, I think you do need the ADS(Adobe Document Services) which runs on the java stack.

Do you have to buy License to use Adobe Interactive Forms in WebAS
Hello,
Im testing at the moment the NetWeaver Java Trial with Web Dynpro (Java) and Adobe Interactive Forms.
You have to download Credentials and install it to use interactive forms in the Trial version. These are valid for 2 month.
I would like to know if you have to buy and install the Licenses to use (in the full amount, with digital Signatures etc.) the Adobe interactive Forms in the Fullversion of NetWeaver ?!
A Link to a document of SAP or Adobe to this topic would be really helpful.Hello,
You will find the Adobe Forms Licensing information at links below:
1) Licensing Adobe Document Services
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/9f/36b2ca6a2642c2b8412677eb1fe9c0/frameset.htm
