Problems activating an adobe forms object / lifecycle designer

Hi everybody,
our developers are getting more and more problems when they try to activate an adobe forms object in SAP.
When they click on the activate icon, SAP freezes – and after 3-4 minutes of waiting, SAP displays, that e.g. 105.570 bytes were transferred, but the document remains inactive.
So by now they need about 5 attempts before it finally gets activated…this is very time consuming and frustrating.
Does anybody know a solution to this problem?
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
Regards
Martin

Activation of Adobe Form takes too long / XML problem?

Dear all,
I copied a standard form to customer name a year ago with life cycle designer version 7. The designer was updated to 8.
When making a change to the adobe form now, the activation takes more than 30 minutes in some cases. I copied the original form again and the activation takes less than 3 minutes.
When calling the XML Coding-tab within the designer it also takes very long and in some cases the system crashes ....
Has anyone an idea why this happens and if there is anything that i can do with changing attributes or other settings? I also tried to copy the copied form again. Same problem. Only when copying the standard form the activation is normal. I made too many changes so to start over again would take long. I would like to avoid this.
Thank you!
Regards
Viktoria

Hi,
I could not solve this. Had to create the form again. Tried to copy most of the elements into it.
Now it works again and is activated within 1-2 minutes.
So no real solution...

Problem with the Adobe Forms

Hi,
I am having two issues regarding Interactive Adobe forms.
We are impelementing MSS/ESS in ECC5.0,EP6 and first , in the PCR after i select " Change Employee Group/subgroup" (edit it, preview it) then when i click on Submit button it gives me Parser Exception . Error message reads as below :
The initial exception that caused the request to fail, was:
com.sap.engine.lib.xml.parser.ParserException: XMLParser: No data allowed here: (hex) 75, 6e, 64(:main:, row:1, col:3)
at at com.sap.engine.lib.xml.parser.XMLParser.scanProlog(XMLParser.java:2733)

at at com.sap.engine.lib.xml.parser.AbstractXMLParser.parse(AbstractXMLParser.java:156)
... 31 more
second, When i select either "Request for Internal Transfer(Enhanced)" or "Request Promotion " it displays a warning message " Form could not be called up due to an internal error " . Rest of the form types i am able to get them ( view,edit,preview and submit )
What could be issue in both the cases here. Need your help on this
Thanks in advance,
Vijay

Hi Vijay,
Check if your XML code is properly. You can do this by going into t-code SFP, open form ISR_FORM_SPEG and go to the layout tab.
Now Adobe Designer will start. If you don't have a XML tab, Select View > XML source. You can copy the XML source in a new text file and display it with Internet Explorer. If it works, you will see the XML source. If it fails, you will receive an XML parse error from IE.
The problem may occur by using different languages. SAP provides the SPEG and other MSS scenarios as an example.

Cannot open form in LifeCycle Designer to edit.

I have created two forms using LC Designer 8. I now need to edit both forms and cannot open them back up to edit!
When I try to open both forms Adobe Professional 8 opens. I then open the form in Adobe Pro 8 and click "edit in designer" and it will not open. I have also tried to open the form directly from my documents in LC Designer and it will not open.
When I try to open LC deigner on its own it will not open - just shoots me straight to Adobe Pro 8.
I need to edit these forms - please help! Thank-you :)

I am also having this problem. It is a dynamic form bound to an XML schema. When I try to reopen it, the livecycle banner comes on, but disappears immediately. The pdf opens in acrobat 9 (a 30-day trial copy). From there, it can be distributed and then filled in.

Problems viewing PDFs with form objects

I have a document I can't view correctly in Acrobat Reader XI. The document includes some form objects like radia buttons and check boxes. When I view the document in Adobe Reader, i only get square boxes. If I use Foxit Reader, I can se the objects normally. I have taken a screendump from the same PDF document, one using Acrobat Reader and the other using Foxit Reader. As you can see, there is a big difference.
The screendump above is from Adobe Reader XI
And this creendump is from Foxit Reader.
Why cant Acrobat display the form objects? It looks like a font problem. I have tried to install asian font pack. Is there any other font packs that could solve this problem?
Best regards
René

How were these forms created? I have seen (in this forum) similar cases when forms were created in some none-standard ways.
See if the attached test document shows correctly in Reader XI.

Problem during view Adobe Form in Web Request

Hi All,
I am facing problem while viewing the adobe form inside the Web Request form.
Let me describe the issue clearly.
I need to have a table in Adobe Form.So i created one table type and bind it to the table structure created, in Adobe Form.
Then i uploaded the form as web request successfully.
Now when i m trying to view the form from web ui, its unable to assign child node data at runtime.so dump is coming.
Can anyone show light on this....i have tried all the possibilities.
Unfortunately there is no standrad scenario available for reference.
Regards,

Hi Satish,
Thanks for your reply.But this is not my requirement.
If you will go to tcode CRM_UI and log in using business role CRMGRMPRGMAN, then go to Application and open one application.Here there is one assignment block called 'Application Form'. Here i have uploaded my Adobe Form as web request.
This is working fine when i have simple linear form.
But when i am using table inside the form and doing binding for it, Application is getting created with that form but while openning it here in the assignment block, dump is coming as below.Its not able to assign the child node.
The ABAP call stack was:
Method: NODE_ELEM_2_STRUCT of program CL_WD_ADOBE_SERVICES==========CP
Method: NODE_2_DDIC of program CL_WD_ADOBE_SERVICES==========CP
Method: DATASOURCE_2_FM_PARAMS of program CL_WD_ADOBE_SERVICES==========CP

Database Buffering problem in Interactive Adobe Forms

Hi All,
In our project, there is one interactive adobe form developed to create/update lead data. The lead data from Adobe Form is read using custom class and method of the same class updates the lead. (BOL programming is used to update and create lead. Also, all the Save and Commit statements are used properly).
There is no problem in creating the lead using interactive Adobe Forms. But, when the same lead is updated in the same session using the same adobe form, due to some database buffering issue, system tries to insert duplicate records in CRM_LEAD_H table which is causing error dump - SAPSQL_ARRAY_INSERT_DUPREC. This dump occurs in update function module CRM_LEAD_H_UPDATE_DU.
If we logged off from the session, the database buffer gets refreshed and lead is updated successfully.
Is there any method/function module to refresh DB buffer before calling the adobe form?
Thanks in advance.

Few fields have reference to table XBT. But when I see this in SE 11, such a table is not existing at all.
Can any of you share some ideas or clues?
Thanks in anticipation.

Trouble with field output conversion when activating the Adobe Forms

Hi everybody,
I'm facing an issue very strange.
I made an interactive form for a customer which is based on abap dictionnary and send by e-mail to user. This form works fine and is in Production system .
Now i made an evolution on this form and when i activate the forms in SAP , all the field conversion are lost so when i got the form Date fields appears with 00000000 if they are empty.
To solved this issue in Development system , i delete the form and recreate it and that's have been sold .
Now this issue appears in Quality system also after transport it...so i try to do the same way to solve it ...i create one transport order where the forms is deleted and another one to recreate it ..but the issue still alive.
I search on OSS and don't find any notes for this .
This issue also appears on aonther forms which is not interactive one ( purchase order printout ) .
I work on ECC 6.0 with AdobeLifeCycle Designer ES 2
Does anybody face this issue and solved it ?
Regards

Ok i will try to explain more clearly because i think there's a misunderstanding .
When you define an interface of Adobe forms you can choose between DDIC interface or XML interface. When you chose DDIC interface when you generate the form all necessary SAP CONVERSION EXIT are use when value are given to the XML file .
For example i got a field type datum define in my interface which is based on DDIC .
I place this field in the layout and set the edit mask in the layout with 'YYYY/MM/DD' for example.
Now i execute the forms and give value '00000000' to the field, normally what should appears in the result is : nothing because it's an initial value.
But in my case the value appears as '00000000' , the edit mask in the form is not taking into account and the conversion of value inside ABAP Stakc is not done.
When you have a look inside the function module generated by the form, you will fin a routine which name is %WORK and inside it you will see a routine which is %OUTPUT which is call for each field you want to print in the form .
If my field is correctly output on the form the data type is givent to this routine in order to make it correct and until now everuthnigs looks good for me but my issue is that the data type of field are not given to this routine so it consider each field as simple TEXT and that wrongs.
juste bellow the code generated for the routine %OUTPUT
form %output using p_name      type fpfield
                   p_value     type any
                   p_datatype type datatype_d
                   p_abap_type type c
                   p_reffield type fpunit
                   p_unit      type any
                   p_edit_mask type convexit.
case p_abap_type.
    when cl_abap_typedescr=>typekind_struct1 or
         cl_abap_typedescr=>typekind_struct2 or
         cl_abap_typedescr=>typekind_table.
*     ignore
    when others.
      call function 'FPCOMP_WRITE_DATA_FIELD'
        exporting
          i_field_name   = p_name
          i_value        = p_value
          i_ddic_type    = p_datatype
          i_data_type    = p_abap_type
          i_edit_mask    = p_edit_mask
          i_ref_name     = p_reffield
          i_ref_value    = p_unit
        exceptions
          usage_error    = 1
          system_error   = 2
          internal_error = 3
          others         = 4.
      %fpcomp_error.
endcase.
endform.                    "%output
is it more clear now ?

Adobe Form - Object property for FormCalc/Javascript

Hi All
I'm learning to use Adobe Form - FormCalc/Javascript - In some of the examples that I have seen fofar
the codes (FormCalc/Javascript) used a qualified name of an object property for setting value i.e.
In FormCalc:
DateTimeField1.rawValue = num2date(date(), DateFmt(3))
In Javascript:
this.rawValue = xfa.layout.pageCount();
pantsWaist.border.edge.color.value = "255,0,0";
pantsLength.presence = "hidden"
etc..
Could someone please tell me how/where I can get the property list that available for an object ?
(i.e. rawValue, presence, value etc...) I can't see on the Form builder (sorry for such a novice question - but as I said I am very new)
Thanks
Points will be rewarded for any reply -

Hi Liem,
Whenever u press a "." after any oject say $ in FormCalc, or this in Javascript u will find relative properties that u can set at that time for the mentioned object.
try this, place a Text field, select that and go to script editor, select language FormCalc:
write $. and u will find a dropdown that'll show u possible list of properties u can change.
Similarly, if u try this with "this." in JavaScript another dropdown will show u possible list of properties that u can change.
Hope this helps

Adobe Forms vs LiveCycle Designer

I just upgraded from Adobe Acrobat Version 10 to Adobe Acrobat Version 11. With Version 10, I had LiveCycle Designer ES2 in which to build forms. The version 11 doesn't seem to come with LiveCycle; instead it is replaced with Adobe Forms. Is it just my imagination that Adobe Forms seems very simplistic and incapable of complex form detail? I can't even seem to get 2 fields side by side; it seems like one field has to go beneath another. Can Adobe Forms be used for complex forms, or am I missing something here? Can you run LiveCycle with Adobe version 11, and if so, how would you do that, or would you have to run both Adobe versions 10 and 11 together, which I know is not supported. Thanks for any enlightenment you can provide.

Hello,
You may want to check if you are eligible for a free upgrade to the latest version of Adobe LiveCycle Designer. For more information, see http://www.adobe.com/in/products/acrobatpro/faq.html.
I hope it helps.

Problem in Alignment - Adobe Forms

I am new to Adobe forms technology.
I have an production issue: When they run a standard report to generate a PDF pay stub in R/3, it looks fine with all the columns. But when the same pay stub is viewed though our ESS on portal (Company website), few values in the columns are good but few of them are not aligned. They are moved to the left.
So what can be the problem?
What are the things I need to check?
How do I see the Adobe form? How is the adobe form being passed to the portal?
Thanks
Kiran
