Problem in Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.2

Hi:
If you go to Control Pane, Regional and Language Setting under Advanced tab, the selection of "Language for non-Unicode programs", if you choose a Language say "Arabic", and after you restart the PC, then the Date Field of LiveCycle Designer will not work properly.
What will happen in this case ?
After you select a Date from the Drop-Down selection, then the date format is preset always to "DD/MM/YYYY", and the date value of say "12-Feb-2009" will show like this "٢٠٠٩-٠٢-١٢" (Indian Digit Shape), and no matter what you do, you will always get the same format, and the Date Validation will always report error.
Even if i set the locale from the Form Properties to English, the date is always displayed in Arabic Numerals.
Can anyone help me with this?
Regards,
Nadir Maroof

Hello GOrdonDimond,
As a General Rule I can't be certain however in the circumstance of using a SAP Application, SAP have advised that Designer 9.8 is required as per note 1317925 https://websmp130.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=1317 925

  • Problem with Adobe LiveCycle Designer

    Hi,
    I am working with ADOBE Interactive form.while clicking  Edit option on the Interactive Form UI Element I am getting the Following error.
    I have registered WDAdobeControl.dll also.
    Error:
    Install SAP InteractiveForms - Adobe LiveCycle Designer.
    Regards,
    Ramesh.

    Did you install the Adobe document services on a Java stack and configure them properly? It sounds like that's missing. The ADS is teh runtime component you need to generate the PDFs.

  • Problem with expanding textfield in Adobe LiveCycle Designer

    I've got an urgent problem with Adobe LiveCycle Designer and I really could use some help. The problem is that I'm trying to get my textfield expandable, but whatever I try, it's not working. What I'm trying to get done is that you can fill in a textfield, and when there is more text than the size of the field, the textfield expands to make the text fit in the field.
    I tried a whole lot of things:
    placing the textfield in a subform
    expand to fit (height)
    allow multiple lines
    allow page breaks
    flowed/positioned
    etc.
    The strange thing is, that no matter what I try to adjust, I can't change anything in the pagination tab. Maybe that is the problem, but I don't know what to do, to change that.
    In the examples of Adobe itself (Purchase Form) is an example of a textfield that sort of behaves as I want it to, BUT the problem is that that textfield in the subform has to be triggered to appear by a button (add comments) and that is what I don't want. I want the textfield to be visible from the beginning. But in that example you CAN see the pagination tab and make changes in it.
    I searched a lot in the Adobe Helpfiles of Designer, and I even bought and read/studied the book 'Creating Dynamic Forms with Adobe LiveCycle Designer', but still I'm not able to get this done.
    Is there anyone who can help me?
    Thanks in advance,
    Sterre

    I am creating my first .pdf with no training. I first converted a word doc of our form into a .pdf. Modified everything and thought I was the "bomb" for figuring it out. Then I tried to use the form and where I had "allowed multiple lines" I realized that it would allow that but not display it or print it except for what was showing.
    In researching for a solution, this site said to use "expand to fit". After much frustration I realized that this feature is only available if you created the form from scratch in adobe.
    I have figured out, somewhat, how to create the form and get the field to move with the text but I need the entire form to adjust to the input. Can't have one specific field expand into the rest of the form.
    I did some more research on this site, and it looks like the solution has something to do with 'subforms'. No idea what to do.
    If anyone knows if there is a way to do this with a converted doc (since I already have that completed) I would GREATLY appreciate it. If it isn't possible, could someone walk me through how to do it or provide a reference for a "barney style" walk through?
    Appreciate ANY assistance you can provide. THANKS! Guess I need to sign up for an Adobe Pro class. BTW I'm working on LiveCyle 8.0

    Excellent directions and help on this subject, Thanks Jared & Gretchen.
    I must be missing something critical >>>
    I have a large employee review document (34 pages) with 23 sections. Each section has a feedback area with expanding text fields, each of the sections is in it's own positioned subform. I have grouped the sections (and subforms) on each page into a flowed subform. The document itself is saved as an Acrobat 7 Dynamic form. My problem...the sections do not Flow. The expanding text boxes work just fine, but they do over-run the sections below.
    I have reviewed the comments above and I can get it to work with a single page document, just not with a large - long document, everything over runs.
    Any ideas? You will be held in very high regard!

  • Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES closes every time I open it :(

    Hello all, I want to thank you beforehand for the help regarding this matter. I use Windows Vista and my Adobe LiveCycle Designer was working before but for the last week and a half or so I have not been able to get it to work! I have done scandisk/defrag/and have multiple software to keep my computer clean so I have taken those precautions beforehand. To the problem...:
    My Adobe LiveCycle Designer opens up and it was working previously as mentioned, but when I try to open it by either opening or converting a form or creating a new form with a template, I am not able to as it gives me an error message and closes! It gives me an error message of "Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES has stopped working" and a screenshot of this is provided at the following link:
    http://www.mediafire.com/imgbnc.php/bc59d422150595157c212a5b181313244g.jpg
    I don't know what to do and wanted to see if I could solve this problem before I was forced to try to manually reinstall it so hopefully I don't have to go through that. I appreciate the help once again!

    I am dealing with the same problem. I called Adobe technical support and spent hours to fix the problem but none worked. I tried to explain them the error might be caused by the Activation process but they just made me uninstall and install application several times.
    When I start LiveCycle it gives the following error: adobe livecycle designer es has stopped working.
    I start debugger to see what's going on and get the following exception: Unhandled exception at 0x773db663 in FormDesigner.exe: 0xC015000F: The activation context being deactivated is not the most recently activated one.
    Does anyone know how to deactivate this product manually? Because deactivate menu is dimmed and I cannot deactivate product from the program. I believe if I can just remove activation info and activate it again this problem might disappear.
    Thanks

    Shawn,
    This may be a couple of known things; one is related to your specific installation (may have become corrupted if you did an upgrade from a previous version, especially if you upgraded from Beta?) Or, it may be related to a known SQL Server compatibility bug for which a hotfix will shortly be posted. (Problem with some Microsoft DLLs that get updated if you install SQL server).
    If you have SQL Server installed, try looking on these forums for a patch that should be posted within the next 2 days. If not - please contact me directly, as I'd like to get someone on my development team to help look through your installation and see what the problem is, so we can fix this properly.

  • ADOBE LiveCycle Designer 8 - EMAIL SUBMIT BUTTON DOES NOT WORK

    I created a new form in Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8, but the email submit button, nor a regular button assigned with a 'submit' function will do anything. It should initiate a new Outlook email but it does not. My default programs are set correctly (default email program and the default "mailto" program are set to Outlook). This document was created not only with ALC8, but on a Windows Vista PC with MS Office 2007. I ran a test to see if it would work on a WinXP SP2 machine with Office 2003 and it still did not work.
    Can anyone help?

    Alan
    Though not an expert, I've created a few forms with the Submit by Email button. If you've already done this then sorry for asking, but did you go through the Acrobat Distribution (Forms>Distribute Forms)process after creating the form in LC8? As far as I can tell the email submit button doesn't work without this stage.
    This confirms the email submission address, then sets up a dataset to be saved in a location of your choice.
    filename_dataset_0001.pdf
    then a file type that can be edited, saved and submitted by Reader users:
    filename_pub_0001.pdf
    You can save this to your intranet server or email direct to the recipient.
    When the submit button is then used you receive a copy of the whole form which on opening will prompt you to add it to the dataset. Receiving and adding multiple forms to the data set is straightforward. You will see them all listed in the viewer above the form itself. From here you can also then select and export the data to Excel via xml or as a csv file.
    Note that any changes you make to the form should be to the original document and the distribution process repeated, otherwise the functionality of the form will be affected.
    That's about the limit of my knowledge I'm afraid, therefore if you have already tried this and are still having problems then hopefully someone else can help out.

    The user's assertion is surprising to me, but perhaps I'm missing something important. I thought the correct position was from the conclusion of my earlier post "it can't be done". Adobe state their Reader Touch doesn't support XFA (http://blogs.adobe.com/readermobile/2012/12/13/adobe-reader-for-windows-8-tablets/). Unless (see that blog entry) you changed the type of form.

  • Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES has stopped workin

    After many projects with LiveCycle Designer, I get the following error message when trying to open any file that was created with the program: "Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." Operating system: Windows 7. I removed and reinstalled CS4 Master adding back Acrobat 9. I also downloaded and installed 32-bit version of the executable file vcredist_x86.exe. Please help!

    That could be due to a number of reasons so it's hard to pinpoint what caused the issue.

  • Adobe LiveCycle Designer and Office 2010

    Hi guys,
    I'm using Adobe LiveCycle Designer (version 9 / ES2). I try to open a MS Word file, but I receive an error message.
    Word (version XP or higher) cannot be found on the machine.
    OS: Windows 7 Enterprise
    Office: 2010
    I read that the version 8.2 of LiveCycle Designer doesn't work with Office 2007 and higher. In this constellation the same error message appears. Is it the same problem on my side? How can I solve it?
    Many Thanks,
    untalentiert

    I'm running Win XP using Parallels 8... LiveCycle Designer is WIndows only and Acrobat XI will only import hyperlinks correctly from Windows versions of Office - which is why I use Office on both the Mac and Windows side, as well as Acrobat XI on both platforms. You can't use the Office plug-ins for Office using LibreOffice (or even Office 2011 for Mac) hence the need to open docs in Word on the Windows side instead of the Mac side.
    What I'm confused by is the pricing difference between the packages - I guessing that the $163 package is the 'full retail' and not an OEM or anything - but I don't know if an OEM would even work under a VM with Parallels...
    So I may end up with the full retail version, although I'd like to save the $70 difference if I can!
    Thanks,
    Clinton
