Problem in the distribution of forms with acrobat

When I prove to distribute a module with acrobat 9 pro extended, the program does not allow me to create the work area on the server and create the file distributed and responses to submit forms and collect data through the “workspace”. The indication that appears is the following: “unable to set a folder of workflow in the hosting service or the specified shared folder. How can I solve the problem? Can you help me, please? Until before the summer the distribution of the forms is always worked well.

That's the strange thing, in the log fiile everything seems to have worked fine.
By the way it is a 18k lines file, however:
MSI (s) (D8:BC) [18:21:17:034]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Modifying TRANSFORMS property. Its current value is '\\Srvappxxxx\path\Bravo.mst'. Its new value: '@Bravo.mst'

Troubles creating a form with Acrobat

I have created a form with Acrobat 9 Pro. However, when it is brought up with Acrobat Reader, the following message appears:
Sending data files by email: Please note, this form contains an email submit button. Clicking this button will email a data file... However, the form itself will not be sent. Remember you cannot save a complete file of this form with Adobe Reader 9.
When the submit button is clicked, the following message is posted on a popup window.
Operation not permitted.
Here's the link to a form I am trying to get to work. It works fine if I use the Pro version, but the Reader version doesn't want to allow the form to be sent. http://www.drugfreedekalbcounty.info/pdf/interventionscholarshipform.pdf
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

It may have been improved with AA9, but at least up through AA8, Acrobat required the use of MAPI on the machine to deal with e-mail. If that has changed, then the other recommendation to use extended rights might meet your need. There is a 500 use limitation for the extended rights (more requires negotiation with Adobe). This may be a limitation that changed with AA9 Pro Extended.
The rights are not needed if the data file is sent and not the whole PDF. There is no need for the whole PDF since the data file can be opened in the original form document - giving the same result. Your observation that it works in AA9 for e-mail is making the assumption that everyone uses AA9. That is a dangerous assumption if you are developing a general use form. You should assume folks have back to AA7, or even AA5 (like I have on this machine). There are still a few that check in here on occasions with AA4. I have not seen an AA3 question for several years. Thus backward compatibility may be an issue, depending on your client base.
The cleanest way to work with forms is to submit to a web script. Then there is no question about the end result. The use of web scripts is even recommended for online html forms for much the same reasons. I was giving a heads up so that you have considered possible users that do not have the newest and best, assuming that the latter resolves the e-mail issue.

Reader Enabled Forms with Acrobat 8.0

Hi,
I am considering upgrading from 7Pro to 8Pro and need to confirm some aspects of the new features for applying reader rights to forms. I have a number of forms generated in Lifecycle Designer 7.1, where the user is using the Reader version to email the XML data.
If I reader enable these forms with Acrobat 8 Pro, will the User be able to still email the XML data and also save the completed form locally? In addition will it be possible to inport and export XML data into & out of Reader Enabled forms?
In addition do you know what the story is with "500 users of the forms"? Is is 500 per form over the lifetime of the form? Some of my forms are distributed to different Clients and I am not sure how this will work
Any help/guidance gratefully appreciated ;-)
Thanks, Niall

It should, yes. Can't confirm 100% as I haven't tried.

I have a problem in the distribution of an application via GPO.

Hi all,
I have a problem in the distribution of an application via GPO.
Actually the problem is due to non-implementation of the changes of the MST transformation file.
I have an installer in .MSI format, during installation the program requires the following parameters:
- DatabaseInstance "SRVAPPXXXX"
- DatabaseName "AAAAA_BBBBB"
- DatabaseUser "dbuser"
- DatabasePassword "password"
- SharedComponentsPath "\\SRVAPPXXXX\PATH"
Then through ORCA I prepared a .MST tranform file that in the Property section corroborates the above parameters
The installation is successful, but when the program is launched it faults as if the parameters supplied were empty.
So I made a further step, I tried to run the installer from the command line:
msiexec /qn /l*v c:\log.txt /i "\\SrvappXXXX\Share\Setup.msi" TRANSFORMS=\\SrvappXXXX\Share\Setup.mst
and also:
msiexec /qn /l*v c:\log.txt /i "\\SrvappXXXX\Share\Setup.msi" DatabaseInstance="SRVAPPXXXX" DatabaseName="AAAAA_BBBBB" DatabaseUser="dbuser" DatabasePassword="password" SharedComponentsPath=\\SRVAPPXXXX\PATH
In both case installations ends without any error.
In the first case it does not work, in the second one it does
Before relaunching the installation I have always previously totally removed the program.
Any suggestion is very welcome

My G5 iMac has a screen color problem. The color is green with lines. What can I do to repar this? Sometimes the screen will freeze and I have to reboot the computer and the screen will be normal for up to 5-6 hours and then suddenly changes back to green

Try running in Safe mode. This leaves out some video drivers. Which results in machine not using advanced video hardware.

Problem using the e-mail button in Acrobat Pro 7.1.0 with Outlook 2013

I just switched my e-mail application from Mozilla Thunderbird to Outlook 2013.
I have always been able to click the e-mail button in Acrobat 7.1.0 to open a blank e-mail message with the PDF file attached.
I keep getting an error now that I have Outlook 2013.
It says "You need to create a Microsoft Outlook profile. In Microsoft Windows, go to the Control Panel and open Mail. Click Show Profiles, and then click Add"
Then, when I click on the OK button it says "Acrobat is unable to log in to your email application. Please check your account settings and try again."
I have checked and I have one profile in Control Panel called Outlook. Outlook is set as my default e-mail program.
I tried using a 3rd party PDF reader (Foxit Reader) and the e-mail button works as expected (opens a new message with the PDF attached).
I am running Windows 7 Professional, 64-bit with Outlook 2013 32-bit (this was what was recommended by Microsoft on the Office download site).
I would appreciate help anyone can provide to fix this problem.
Thank you.

It may be a similar issue, but not the same issue. This is not the Reader forum, but if you are worried about the compatibility it is a simple matter to upgrade your Reader to AR XI. The original post had to do with a cost product, not the free Reader.
For AA7, the PDF Maker of AA7 is not compatible with Outlook 2013 as suggested. You should still be able to open most PDFs, but to create a PDF from Outlook you will have to print to the Adobe PDF printer or upgrade to AA XI.

MDIChildren flickering problem while switching between child form with dockstyle.fill and borderstyle.none

I have an mdi applicaton in Visual studio 2010 (.Net framework 4.0). I'm having a flickering problem when user switch between an MDI Child form. I'm declaring the child form then setting the borderstyle.none at design time and dock property to fill
through programming and make them a MDIChildren before I show them so that it takes up the entire space of the MDI Parent window without being maximized (client request).
i don't want to display control box(minimize, maximize,close) of child form in mdi parent form. (client request)
The problem is that when the child form is being displayed it is briefly shown in it's default size with icon and control box before being resized to fill the available area on the MDI Parent form. When a Child Form loads, you can see it in it's original
size (the size from Design-time) then all this flickering while maximizing .
In other words, child form show up in the client area of the MDIForm, not maximized, with a caption, very shortly, before they are finally filling the client area. there is a short flicker when a new form is created and displayed. This process is most noticeable
with a not-so-powerful PC or there are lots of control inside child form.
below is my code to show child form
MyChild1 c1 = new MyChild1();
c1.MdiParent = MdiMainParent;
c1.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
c1.Show();
how can i solved the problem of flickering issue?
I tried many options which i have described below
1.double buffering.
2.set style property to child form
this.SetStyle(ControlStyles.UserPaint, true);
this.SetStyle(ControlStyles.AllPaintingInWmPaint, true);
this.SetStyle(ControlStyles.DoubleBuffer, true);
3. override below method in each child form
protected override CreateParams CreateParams
get
CreateParams cp = base.CreateParams;
cp.ExStyle |= 0x02000000;
return cp;
4. override below method in each child form
const int WM_NCPAINT = 0x85;
const int WM_SIZE = 0x05;
protected override void WndProc(ref Message m)
if (m.Msg == WM_NCPAINT)
if (this.WindowState == FormWindowState.Maximized)
return;
if (m.Msg == WM_SIZE)
if (this.WindowState == FormWindowState.Maximized)
return;
base.WndProc(ref m);
but I didn't see any effects. please someone help me to resolve flickering issue. thanks in advance.

Hi hardikvaishnav,
This is a known issue which has been reported to Microsoft Connect. Unfortunately, this issue will not fix due to stability issues around MDI. For more details, see
https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/details/97787/border-of-mdi-child-form-flashes-up-despite-formborderstyle-none.
You might use a user control or panel instead.

Webutil-Problem (not the usual "PRE-FORM", "WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE" etc.)

Hello,
We have an application with lots of modules, where we use webutil to create text files on the client for data exports. The export is called in a WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED Trigger and usually works fine, but we have the following problem:
If two modules, where webutil is used, are opened at the same time and one module is closed, webutil does not function anymore in the other module. If we then try to create a text file after closing on module, we get the following error-message:
Oracle.forms.webutil.file.FileFunctions bean not found.
WEBUTIL.FILE.FILE_SELECTION_DIALOG_INT will not work.
It’s not only the FileFunctions bean, all other webutil functions do not work also anymore in the remaining module.
This is not the usual “PRE-FORM”, “WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE” etc. Webutil-Problem.
As I said before, webutil works, but when we close one module with webutil used, it does not work in another open module anymore.
Any Idea, why this happens and how to solve the problem???
Kind regards
Udo

Hello,
Yes, both modules work in the the same session and session is not disconnected, when one of the modules is closed.
Webutill.pll is attached on both forms and all forms in our application using webutil usually work fine with the exception mentioned above.
It's a bit difficult to explain, what happens in our application, but I try:
Our application consists of modules that call other modules with call_form or go_form , when the module is open, all in the same session. "Global" Parameters are passed with SHARE_LIBRARY_DATA. Usually the calling forms stays open.
In the following constellation webutil does not work anymore at a certain point :
- Open module A (with webutil attached) and webutil works
- Then module A calls module B (with webutil attached) and webutil works in module B
- GO_FORM (module A) and webutil still works (while module B is still open)
- CALL_FORM (module C) (in our case webutil is not attached to this module, but I think that is not the problem) module C closes module B (while module A stays open)
- After making a choice in module C, module C closes itself with EXIT_FORM.
- Go back to the open module A, make a new query with the choice made in module C and webutil does not work anymore in module A

Can't edit pdf form with acrobat all of a sudden!

Problems opening PDFs from SharePoint 2007 with Acrobat X Pro

We are currently migrating to Windows 7 x86, Acrobat X Pro, and Office Pro Plus 2010 SP1. Our old setup is Windows XP, Acrobat 8 Pro, and Office 2007. We are using SharePoint 2007. On our older machines, we are able to open and edit PDFs without any problems. However, on our newer machines with Acrobat X, we get this error whenever we open a PDF for editing:
The document could not be opened for editing. A Windows SharePoint Services compatible application could not be found to edit the document.
All of our XP users can open and edit documents without any problems--only our newly migrated Windows 7 users are unable to edit these documents. Is there a setting that I need to adjust in Acrobat X? I don't recall seeing any Acrobat X specific options in SharePoint configuration. Thanks!
EDIT: I was able to open and edit a PDF document using the following steps:
1. Click drop-down menu next to document and select "Check Out."
2. In the check-out dialog box, check "Use my local drafts folder." Click OK.
3. Back in SharePoint, click on document to open--click OK to message warning about malicious files.
4. Edit document, then click Save button. Close Acrobat.
5. Back in SharePoint, click drop-down menu next to document and select "Check In."
6. Confirm the check-in.
7. Redirected back to document library and the modified date and by fields are updated.
This seems like an awful amount of steps. Is there a way to make this function the same when a user edits a Word or Excel document?

Added info under EDIT.

In Acrobat X, SharePoint Integration has been added which allows users to check-out/check-in the document from within Acrobat. Clicking the file from document library in Internet Explorer opens the file in Acrobat. The configuration that needs to be done on the SharePoint server is explained in the following KB article in section 11.1.

Electronic forms with Acrobat 7 Standard

I need to create a form that users with Acrobat Reader can fill out electronically, and then print. They don't need to be able to save their forms or submit them electronically. The requirement is that they simply fill the form out and then print. Can I accomplish this with Acrobat 7 Standard?
Thanks!
Luis

No. You will need Acrobat 7 Professional to create the form template. Acrobat 7 Standard does not have form tools.

Problem in integration of custom Forms with Oracle POS 13.2

Hi All,
I am working on POS 13.2 and it is currently configured with Ingenico signature capture device i6580. This device supports 5 services Pinpad service, signature capture service, line display service, msr service and FORMService.
Form service is used to display all the custom forms (welcome form, thank you form etc) on the device. The same formservice is not supported by the device isc250 which need to be integrated.
Could you please help me how can i display welcome or thankyou form on the device?
Thanks!
Arun

Peter,
unfortunately you can't call into a running Forms application. This will be addressed in a future release of Forms (don't ask me for the version of it because calling into Forms with JavaScript requires us to handle asynchronous events first). For now all you can do is to write an separate Applet that creates s ocket connection to a Java Bean running in Forms on teh Web. This is a bit of a hack and may have a security impact. I am forwarding this thread to some of my collegues who knows this better than I do.

Cannot save filled forms with Acrobat Reader

I have installed on my Windows XP, Acrobat Reader 9.5. I get a pdf file from Internet that has in it some forms that I must fill in and send back to pdf creator. The problem is that when I open this file, I have posted a message on the upper left side: "Please fill out the following form. You cannot save data typed into this form. Please print your completed form if you would like a copy for your records." But of course, I must be able to save this file with filled data in form. Is that possible? Can you explain me what happens? I'm a newbie to this topic (in fact I'm a linux user. I'm trying to solve some of my sister issues).
Thanks in advance!

Prior to Reader 11, Reader was unable to save a filled-in form unless the document was Reader-enabled. This is something that the creator of the form does with either Acrobat or LiveCycle Reader Extensions. If your document is not Reader-enabled, you will see the message that you're getting. Unfortunately, Reader 11 is not available for Linux.
