Producing forms from mysql database

I have a website that collects various information from a
user. I then want it to produce a .pdf file that the user can
download. The .pdf file would be a form with field values taken
from an Access or MySQL database. It would be similar to producing
a tax form with data from a database (the user does not fill in a
.pdf form). What product lets me design the form for my website,
and then lets the website produce the filled-in form?
Thanks, Art Lieberman

Please be advised that this forum is for discussions about

Your best source of questions and answers for the Acrobat

That being said, I believe that one of the Livecycle server
products may be able to do what you are asking. Try calling your
Adobe Account Manager (or the generic sales number from our
website) and they should be able to give you better information.

Populate Livecycle PDF from mySQL database using PHP

I'm trying to set up a database of loan agreements, where users will submit a form through Acrobat and their information will be stored in a mySQL database. Later, they can go back and download the PDF, which will be repopulated with their data in the mySQL db.
I made the form in Livecycle Designer and submit the information through HTTP POST. I can easily get the information from the form into the database...my only problem is getting that information back out into the PDF.
What would allow me to write back to the PDF, preferably using PHP? What kind of syntax would that require?
Thanks!

I have a vital form that clients fill out, which is passed to many people in the company along the workflow. The form is a Planner and we have in the following PDF, Word Doc..
Well before, the Planner.pdf was originally created in Word, since most people have access to Word.. but evolved to a PDF form created from the Word Doc via Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.0 w/ User Rights enabled so that the form could be filled out and saved using Adobe Reader.. which was a step better than Word.. being that it is free. But this needed to be easier and more to the point b/c some clients don't particularly like installing the latest version of Reader, even if you provide them the link. Nor do they like saving the form, filling the form, and attaching the form to send back.
My goal is to have the client fill an HTML version of the form, submit and be done with it, but everyone in the workflow be able to easily receive the filled Planner as a PDF form.
So some months ago I ran into this post Chris Trip, "Populate Livecycle PDF from mySQL database using PHP" #8, 22 Sep 2007 4:37 pm
which uses the command line Win32 pdftk.exe to merge an FDF file into an existing PDF on the remote server, and serve this to whoever.
My problem was with shared hosting and having the ability to use the Win32 pdftk.exe along with PHP which is predominantly used on Linux boxes. And we used a Linux box.
so i created the following unorthodox method, which a client fills the HTML version of the Planner, all field values are INSERTED into a table in MySQL DB, I and all filled planners that have been filled by clients to date can be viewed from a repository page where an XML file is served up of the corresponding client, but someone would have to have Acrobat Professional, to import the form data from the XML file into a blank form.. altoughh this is simple for me.. I have the PHP file already created so that when a Planner is filled and client submits. >> the an email is sent to me with a table row from the repository of the client name, #, email, and a link to d-load the XML file,
But I also have the PHP files created so that the Planner can be sent to by email to various people in the workflow with certain fileds ommitted they they do not need to see, but instead of the XML file beiong served up i need the filled PDF Planner to be served.
I can do this locally with ease on a testing server, but I am currently trying to use another host that uses cross-platform compatibility so i can use PHP and the pdftk.exe to achieve this, as that is why I am having to serve up an XML file b/c we use a Linux server for our website, and cant execute the exe.
Now that I am testing the other server (cross-platform host), just to use them to do the PDF handling (and it's only $5 per month) I am having problems with getting READ, WRITE, EXECUTE permissions..
Si guess a good question to ask is can PHP do the same procedure as the pdftk.exe, and i can eleminate it.
or how in the heck can i get this data from the DB into a blank PDF form, like i have described??
here are some link to reference

How to get the data from mysql database which is being accessed by a PHP application and process the data locally in adobe air application and finally commit the changes back in to mysql database through the PHP application.

How to get the data from mysql database which is being accessed by a PHP application and process the data locally in adobe air application and finally commit the changes back in to mysql database through the PHP application.

If the data is on a remote server (for example, PHP running on a web server, talking to a MySQL server) then you do this in an AIR application the same way you would do it with any Flex application (or ajax application, if you're building your AIR app in HTML/JS).
That's a broad answer, but in fact there are lots of ways to communicate between Flex and PHP. The most common and best in most cases is to use AMFPHP (http://amfphp.org/) or the new ZEND AMF support in the Zend Framework.
This page is a good starting point for learning about Flex and PHP communication:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/flex_php.html
Also, in Flash Builder 4 they've added a lot of remote-data-connection functionality, including a lot that's designed for PHP. Take a look at the Flash Builder 4 public beta for more on that: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashbuilder4/

Call oracle_procedure from mysql database

Hi all,
How do I call oracle_procedure from mysql database?
Is it possible at all?
Thanks ahead.

Hi,
You can use the Database Gateway for ODBC (DG4ODBC) to connect to MySQL from Oracle.
If you have access to My Oracle Support have a look at these notes -

I cant read correct single quote from mySQL database...

I cant read correct single quote from mySQL database, pls help. What i'm talking about. I must import, "J'adore" for example in my DB and I'm doing this. Thats ok. But when I try to read this value from my DB through JDBC I'm receiving SQL exception (because JDBC thinks that i didn't close may quote). If somebody knows solution for this problem lets tell me.

I'm not sure I got your question correctly, but maybe
this solves your problem:
Connection conn = // Wherever you get it from
PreparedStatement query =
= conn.prepareStatement("INSERT INTO table_A (field_A) VALUES (?)");
query.setString(1, "J'adore");
query.execute();
query.close()Regards, Eirikthe select variation which i think you mean the WHERE clause would be...
Connection conn = // Wherever you get it from
PreparedStatement query = conn.prepareStatement("SELECT * FROM table_A WHERE field_A = ?");
query.setString(1, "J'adore");
ResultSet rs = query.executeQuery();

MIgration from MYSQL database to Oracle database

HI,
Can you pls let me know how can we do this using Oracle SQL Developer.
In Mysql database we are having one table which is not normalized and corresponding to it we have created normalized tables in oracle database.
so scenario is like this
EMP table in MYSQL database ----------- need to migrate to----> Employee table
Dept table.
These tables are having some extra columns also which are not there in EMP table in MYSQL database.
SO we want to fill some default values for the new columns while doing the migration.
Can you pls let me know if this is achievable through SQL Developer and how?

Sorry, you'd have to do this in 2 steps:
1. Migrate the tables as they are.
2. Insert the rows from the migrated tables into the new ones.
Have fun,
K.

Trouble creating forms from remote database

Hi,
We are having problems with connecting to remote databases with portal. We can create reports fine from the remote databases but when we try to create forms, it gives the error:
'This Table does not exist or you do not have the required privileges (WWV-13020)'.
We've created a link to the remote db, and synonyms for each of the tables. I don't understand because it seems we can build reports and other components...just not forms.
If anyone has any ideas as to what the problem could be, any assistance you may provide is greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Dmitry - we're having the same problems...
I've had our DBA team grant us every possible privilage we can find - but I still can't create a form from within the portal to a remote database. The wizard lets me put in the table name, ex. asset.wban_trans@drsrch, and does come up with the proper columns on the layout page of the wizard, but when I click the "Finish" button I get the following errors: Line/Column Error

841/16 PLS-00454: with a returning into clause, the table expression cannot be remote or a subquery

The form is then listed in my applications list, but if I try and run it I get the following error:

Import � from mysql Database

Hello,
I have to import text with special characters like � from a mysql database. I want to test the string, in which I put the text, for these special characters but somehow these characters seem to be converted to a question mark before I have the chance to test for them. The special characters are never found and a questionmark is replacing them when i display them in the console window.
Does anyone know the solution to this problem?
kind regards, brassers

IReport data retrieval from MySql database

Hi,
can anyone help me? i am using iReport - jasperreports to design a report using a datasource/ connections.
i designed my report and everything works fine except that the data of the fields in mthe detail band is been retrieved more than once making the reports to have one data printed more than once(as many as possible). In my quey, i even used the "order by" as specified in the iReport manual.
Questions: Is there to fix this so that i can have one data of a field printed only once witout repeatition in the detail band(that is, print one value then the next till the last value then stop)

Play with the evaluated and printed when options. Another thing you should do is create a group whose evaluation string is the key from your database. every time this value changes as the records are being evaluated the detail section will be printed.

Populating a pdf form from a database

There seems to be a lot of information on the forum that skirts around this problem, but so far everything I've tried falls short.
 
 I have a pdf form that can be filled out via a browser (the web server is Win2k and IIS.
 
 I can fill out this form and use an http submit button to send it to a .asp url where a vbscript program captures the data and creates a record in a sql server table.
 
 What I want to be able to do is call up that pdf form and populate it with the data from a specific record from the table - again using .asp and vbscript. The following code brings up the form, but does not fill in the fields. Is what I want to do possible and if so can someone help?
 
 Thanks.

Programmatically filling in fields of an interactive PDF form from a database

I have a web app written in Grails, but it doesn't matter. I ask is there possible way to send the data from database into the the third party interactive PDF form? If yes, what tools from Adobe I would need to make this kind of web app plugin? Is it possible to view Javascript code of once made PDF?

You can simply create an FDF or XFDF file and return that to the browser.
