Problem with Adobe forms layout

I am trying to create a PDF form using SFP transaction.
When I switch to 'Layout' tab it is giving error like 'Could not start layout designer(see the long text)'
I guess the ADS services are not registerd in my system.
But where I need to check for this?
additional info: I am using SAP ECC 6.0 latest version
Please help me

Hi Chitra,
Below is the procedure to check ADS in ABAP:
1. Log on to your SAP Net Weaver AS ABAP.
2. Call transaction SA38 and enter the name FP_TEST_00.
3. Choose Execute (F8). A dialog box is displayed.
4. Enter FP_TEST_00 in the field Form.
This is displayed as the default form name.
5. Enter the name of the connection to the ADS. Enter the default name ADS, or, if you have specified another name, the one you are using in your system.
6. In the dialog box, choose Output in Print Preview.
7. Enter an appropriate device type in the field Output Device.
8. Choose Print Preview.
Hope this helps!!
Cheers,
Arafat

Issue with Adobe Form Layout

Hi,
I have an issue with the Adobe Form Layout.Although I have added a field in the Context Menu of the Form Builder but the context has not been added to the Data View.
Could you please help me to understand how to include the parameters and structures that we define in the context and add them to the Data View in layout?As far as I know, it is done automatically.But in this case I don't understand what the problem is.
Please help me.
Thanks,
Sandeep.

it is normally done automatically. Do ANY of your fields show in your DATA VIEW? Or, are you just missing the new one?
If you're only missing the new one, make sure your Context has the field defined correctly and generated.. Then make sure you have updated the mapping in your View Context and generated that.
After those 2 things, your field should now show.
You cannot, as far as I know, define an attribute as any sort of TABLE - we have a common structure that has several Table Types in it. When we import that structure, we have to delete those attributes and create Nodes to mimick those tables.
If you've accidentally included a Table type as an attribute, you won't see any fields in your Data View.
EDIT: by the way, there's an Adobe Interactive Forms Forum where you should ask these kinds of questions.

Problem with adobe forms multiple pages

Hi
can someone help me how to get multiple pages in adobe forms in case the item lines exceeds the page capacity?
Thanks

It should not be much of a problem. Here is a detailed solution to your problem:
In your context , create a node MasterNode of cardinality 1...1 and singleton set to true. Bind this to the dataSource property of the InteractiveFormElement.
Inside this MasterNode create a node Data of cardinality 0...n and singleton set to false. Keep all of your payslip attributes inside this node.
In your interactive form element , in the Body Page create a subform of Type Flow Content and Flow Direction Table .Check the chechbox for Allow Page Breaks within Context . Inside this subform create another subform of Type Flow Content and Flow Direction Western Text . Uncheck the checkbox for Allow Page Breaks within Context . Put all of your pay slip UI elements inside this subform and bind them with the attributes under the node Data. Also tick the property of the inner subform under the section Object->Subform that says Repeat Subform for each Data Item
In your view controller coding area , create an element of the node Data for each employee record and populate it with values for the particular employee .
Add all of the elements that you created into an ArrayList and bind this ArrayList to the node Data. Now your form is ready for n number of employees.
Put this sort of coding in your view controller coding:
IDataElement objData = null;
ArrayList arlData = null;
int intNumberOfEmployees=0;
try
        arlData = new ArrayList();
        intNumberOfEmployees = //Get size of your model node that returns employee info
        if(intNumberOfEmployees>0)
                for(int i=0;i<intNumberOfEmployees;i++)
                        objData = wdContext.createDataElement();
                        objData.setName("//Value fetched from backend here");//Eg:wdContext.nodeEmployeeInfo.getEmployeeInfoElementAt(i).getname()
                        //Similarly set all of the values
                        arlData.add(objData);
        wdContext.nodeData.bind(arlData);
Hope this helps you...

Data passing problem with Adobe Form & Guided Procedure

Hello all,
I am trying to create a Guided Procedure to implement an offline Adobe Interactive form. This form is based on the standard Requisition Request form used in MSS for e-Recruiting.
I've copied the standard form and updated the layout to ZCI using the appropriate transaction (not manually). After that, I've changed the Interface and layout. But to get the Form in the portal you need to have a .xpd file. Therefore, I've tested the form in preview mode, saved a copy as a PDF file and opened this copy in the standalone Adobe Lifecycler Designer. In the standalone version you are able to save the form as a PDF (not possible using transaction SFP).
My question 1 is if this is a wrong approach and there is a better way to retrieve the xpd file.
Next to that, I wrote a RFC function to retrieve data in the backend. This function is working and now I try to pass the data to the Form in the GP (using prefilling). The data is never passed, any points that I need to check there. The data used to export is a structure that contains a number of table types, because Adobe has issues with importing tables it seems. The form is working correctly in the backend.
Points will be rewarded for helpfull awnsers!
Kind regards & thanks in advance...

Hi Eduard Vilar,
Go to sfp transaction, open the respective form, enter the transaction 'fb_xdp_down' to import the xdp layout and 'fb_xdp_up' to upload.
Hope this will hwlp. (i beleive you meant xdp rather than xpd )

Problems with Adobe Forms

Hi!
I'm having a problem, when I insert a static text on my form and press the activation button it happens 2 things:
1) the text on the static text erases
2) the form doesn't activate
If anyone can help me with any of my doubts, I'd be very pleased.
Thanks!

Perhaps your interpretation of the Master Page is different than mine. I never put anything but static content in my Master Page. For instance for the form in my weblog my Master page has a head with a logo and Footer with a page number and some static text.
In my Master Page I have single Page that I called MainPage. I then create a Content Area within this MainPage.
All of my variable elements go into a separate Page. I set that entire page object as Flow Content (flow direction Top to Bottom) with Allow Page Breaks within Content marked. I set the Place to (in Content Area "Name" where Name is the name of the Content Area in the Master Page). The After is set to Go To Page MainPage(Back to the Master Page Object).
With this my paging with tables and Master Page content all work correctly. I can do page breaks and repeat my table headers, but continue the content normally. Hopefully this helps.

10.6.8 introduces several problem with mail, on one machine doesn't start on another it can't be seen from Safari, is that normal?

I don't what's going on with 10.6.8
Mail is suffering several problems.
first of all, I made all the standard routines... permissions, etc.
1) on one machine it starts, the dock icon is bouncing endless, and even forcing the index rebuilt, doesn't help.
2) on another machine, mail is not recognized by Safari, it is not there it says (My fear is that is Safari the problem? Strange)...
Do you have any other issue with Mail?

I have reinstalled the combo update, last night... The Mail app works ok on one mac, but is isolated, so no other app can send to Mail.app any email content.
Here you have the snapshots.
and this is the info.
I don't know what to do more... Shall I fill a bug report?

I was able to open abode form layout in the transaction SFP. However, after I upgraded my Adobe to 7.0.9. (previous version is 7.x.x). I get the error SOFFICEINTEGRATION143 when try open again.
I uninstalled Adobe 7.0.9 and installed Adobe 8.1 but it still get the same error.
Can anyone help?
