Question re: Saving Files in Reader after created by Livecycle

Is there any way to create a form in LiveCycle, and make it so the recipients can SAVE it when it is opened in Reader after it is filled out?

In order for a user to save a PDF with data using Adobe Reader the document must be have Reader Extensions (RE) applied to it. You can apply RE either using a full copy of Acrobat (for one file at a time) or using LiveCycle Reader Extensions (for server side as part of a batch or in an automated process). There are additional restrictions on the Acrobat method that are detailed in the Acrobat license.

Unable to open PDF files in Reader after canceling Acrobat subscription

Dear Adobe,
I have a case# 0185794056. It involves a purchase of Pro XI and a cancellation shortly after. Since the cancellation of Pro XI, I have had difficulties accessing Reader. When I click to open a file in Reader, I receive a message stating I need to renew my Pro XI subscription. What can be done?
Sincerely,
Brian Razak

Hi Brian,
If I understand correctly, you're double-clicking a PDF in hopes of opening it in Reader, but it opens (or tries to) to open in Acrobat Pro, instead. Is that the case?
Did you uninstall Acrobat Pro after canceling your subscription? If not, I would start there. Or, you could also associate the PDF filename extension with Reader, instead of Pro (the steps vary by operating system).
Please let us know how it goes.
Best,
Sara

Why can't I import a .txt file to a PDF created in Livecycle Designer?

I am trying to import data into a PDF, simple stuff like names and addresses. I've saved my spreadsheet as a tab delimited .txt file, but when i go to import data in the PDF, .txt files are not an option. Is there a setting in Livecycle or in Acrobat that I haven't found?

Is there a way for me to import the data to a PDF created in LiveCycle designer?

Can I create forms in Acrobat Standard XI taht can be saved using Acrobat reader after distribution?

I am using Acrobat Standard XI on a Windows 7 64 bit OS. I have created forms in my Acrobat Standard and sent them out and I am being told that both MAC & Windows users cannot save them using reader. Is that a rights thing I did not set or does Standard not allow that?

Users with Adobe Reader XI can save the filled form.

How to open saved files using 'read from text file' function

Hi everyone, I am having a hard time trying to solve the this particular problem ( probably because I am a newb to lanbview ). Anyway , I am able to save the acquired waveforms by using the 'Write to text file' icon. I did manually modify the block diagram of the 'Write to text file' icon and create the correct number of connector so as to make my program work. But now I have no idea on how to modify the block diagram of the 'Read from text file' block diagram to make my program 'open' my saved waveforms. Or i do not have to modify anything from the block diagram of the 'Read from text file'? Can anyone teach/help me connect up? Do i need the build array on the "open" page?
Here are some screenshots on part of my program
let me know if you guys would need more information / screenshots thank you!

Ohmy, thanks altenbach. oh yeah i forgot about those sub VIs. will upload them now. Was rather demoralized after reading the comments and really struck me on how weak i'm at on labview really hope to get this done. But of course i have to study through and see how it works. Actually i am going to replace those 'signal generators sub vi' with ThoughtTechonology's sample code so i can obtain data waveforms real-time using Electrocardiography (ECG) ,Electromyography (EMG ) and Electroencephalography (EEG) hopefully i can find out how to connect the sample code.
( ps . cant connect it now unless my program is working otherwise labview will crash )
( p.s.s the encoder of my biofeedback trainer already acts as an DAQ so i wont need to place an DAQ assistant in my block diagram i suppose )
The sample code of ThoughtTechnology is named as attachment.ashx.vi. too bad i cant use it and present it as my project

Saving a form that can be saved in Adobe Reader after filled out.

I have created a form using Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended and would like it to be filled out and than saved as is to the hard drive of the person receiving it. I have looked at how to do this and it says go to File > Save As > Reader Extended PDF > Enable Additional Features. I opened up my document in Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended and went to File > Save As but it doesn't give me the option for Reader Extended PDF or anything at all. It just has the Save As button which will open up the Save As Dialogue box. What do I need to do to be able to save this how I would like this?

In Acrobat 9 it's: Advanced > Extend Features in Adobe Reader
They change it every time.

I am having trouble deleting files and folders after creating in the same .VI

I have a larger .VI that runs an automated balancing routine for a large rotating mass. The test needs to create some folders and files so that as the rest is run multiple times, there is a way to track how units did under test and when they were tested.
The attached .VI is only the portion of the code that creates the files and folders, waits for user input, and then deletes them if the test is cancelled before data is collected. There are other elements, but they are irrelevant given that I can't even get the stripped down code to work. I have checked the permissions on the deepest file (within both folders) and I am unable to get 777(oct) permissions on this file which could be the only problem I have. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Here are a couple of things:
Frame 0: the pane properties are saved with the file, so once they are set you never need to set them again. Delete the property node and associated constants.
Frame 1:
Shouldn't "Serial#" be a control (and an integer)? You do a complex song and dance to add leading zeroes. Simply format your serial number with format "%04d"
Shouldn't "Operator" be a control?
Frame 2: That loop needs a small wait statement. Since STOP is always true when the loop ends, the later case structure seems unneeded.
Frame 3:
the STOP function seems unneeded. the VI will stop anyway since there is no code left.
never use default tunnels for references.
All your error outputs are "disconnected" and write to the same indicator. Mist likely you'll loose intermediary errors.
Overall, you should use a state machine architecture instead of sequences. It will be much more flexible and will take even less diagram space. The indicators can be outside the state case, so all states can write to them. No locals needed.

Problem saving files as JPEGs after editing them as CR2 files

I took some photos in RAW format and used Photoshop CS2 to make my lighting adjustments (in the Photoshop RAW viewer). For most photos, I just clicked the "Save" button, and I had the option to convert and save the file as JPEG, TIFF, etc. But I had some additional changes to make in Photoshop using layers, so I clicked "Open" first before saving, and worked in the general Photoshop window. But after making my changes, I clicked "Save as" and the long list of file options to choose from was no longer there, and I only had the option of saving the file as: Photoshop, Cineon, Large Document Format, Photoshop PDF, Photoshop Raw, PNG, TIFF. I really need to save it as a JPEG, but it is not one of the options. I have flattened all the layers, and am working in RGB color mode.
If anyone could help me understand why I can't save this as a JPEG, I would really appreciate it! Thanks!

Convert the files from 16 bit to 8 bit and you be able to save your jpeg.

Question: How do I retrieve values after creating an autofilter.

So the question is sort of simple but my code is below, this is my first time really running in VBA but it isn't so far all to dissimilar to LotusScript which I am a bit more knowledgeable in. What I am trying to do is retrieve values from the filtered information,
or more simply, I am trying to retrieve values from two cells in the spreadsheet that I want move together.
As noted below one of them is a countries field which simply concatenates the country string with the duplicates with the same first column (A#) fields.
Example 123 .. UK
              123 .. US
              123 .. CA

The code below is only semi-tested but it should give you the idea of how to loop through the visible data of an AutoFiltered Range. You can't use code like "For r = 2 to Rows.Count" because the code stops after the first non contiguous row. However,
you can use For Each loop to loop through the rows and get the row number from there.
An explanation of the code to set rngVisible. (Note that a space and underscore at the end of a line is a line break in an otherwise single line of code.)
With .AutoFilter.Range   This is the entire AutoFilter Range (Includes column headers, visible and non visible rows)
.Offset(1, 0)     Moves down one row off the column headers but now includes an additional row at the bottom below the data. (Still includes visible and non visible rows)
.Resize(.Rows.Count - 1, .Columns.Count)     Removes the additional row due to Offset (Still includes visible and non visible rows)
.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)      Only include the visible rows.
    Sheets("Sheet1").Activate
    For Each v In dict.keys
        countries = ""
        If dict.Item(v) > 1 Then
            With ActiveSheet
                Set rnData = .UsedRange
                With rnData
                    .AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:=v
                End With
                'Note that AutoFilter.Range is an inbuilt object variable _
                for the entire range covered by the AutoFilter

                    'Following tests if any rows (other than column header) are visible _
                    in the AutoFilter.Range. If > 1 then more than just column headers. _
                    Attempting to set the rngVisible will error if not at least one row _
                    of visible data.
                    If .Columns(1).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Cells.Count > 1 Then
                        'Assign the visible data to a range variable

Newbie question about saving files

Hi all,
A newbie question here, and maybe it is a dumb question, but I can't get my head around this and sofar found no answer in the forums here.
When I save a file on my macbook, I can only save it to "top" folders.
What I mean is I try to save a file for instance to documents/worddocs/lyrics just to say something, then I have to save the file first to documents, and the move it to the lyrics folder via finder or move it to :worddocs folder and then move it again to the lyrics folder. Hope you still get my drift here
Is there a way to just save it to the subfolders without going through all this moving around?
Thanks in advance for any advice
Peter

When you click File>Save As, you will see the Save As window pop up. At the top, you will see a box entitled Save As, which has a space for your to enter the file name. To the right of this box is an arrow pointing down. Click it. The full file hierarchy will be seen. Then you can save directly to the file you want.
Hope this helps.

Load data in xml file into Pdf form created by LiveCycle Designer

I want to load data in xml file into Pdf form when Pdf opened and Form field will be filled with data from xml file .I try to use $host.importdata("filename.xml"); But i could not find suitable place to run my code. Can anyone give me some advice? thank you.

Hi,
extract your xml and then you can use insert all clause.
here's very small example on 10.2.0.1.0
SQL> create table table1(id number,val varchar2(10));
Table created.
SQL> create table table2(id number,val varchar2(10));
Table created.
SQL> insert all
2 into table1 values(id,val)
3 into table2 values(id2,val2)
4 select extractValue(x.col,'/a/id1') id
5        ,extractValue(x.col,'/a/value') val
6        ,extractValue(x.col,'/a/value2') val2
7        ,extractValue(x.col,'/a/id2') id2
8 from (select xmltype('<a><id1>1</id1><value>a</value><id2>2</id2><value2>b</value2></a>') col from dual) x;
2 rows created.
SQL> select * from table1;
        ID VAL
         1 a
SQL> select * from table2;
        ID VAL
         2 b                                                                    Ants

Can i reduce the size of a numbers file after creating it?

I have created a template using numbers and after adding the information and photographs the file appears too big to email; can the numbers file be reduced after created to enable emailing?

Hi there.
Have you considered mailing a link to Dropbox, iDrive or some other cloud storage?
Compressor is designed primarily for audio and video, and graphics file formats. If you have a lot of photos that are ballooning the size of your spreadsheets, I'd use a photo editor to reformat/resize them. It doesn't have to be Photoshop. Preview, for example, can do that.
Also…there is a an active iWork discussion forum in the ASC, and you might consider asking your question here.

Downloading linked files via Safari after Leopard upgrade

Prior to my Leopard upgrade, when I would go to my audio site, I could click on the link and it would play in quicktime no problem, if I wanted to download the file... I would use "option" click.. again no problem. Now after the upgrade, if I click the file, still plays no problem but when I attempt to download the file using "option" click, it downloads the html address as opposed to the actual linked file. And when I use "control" click to emulate a right click, none of those options work either. I get the same result. It downloads the html link only and not the file. This all worked fine prior to the upgrade and my friend who also upgraded is also getting the same exact results. I couldn't find anything in the Safari options so I am at a loss..... Any suggestions?

I have the same problem... Prior to upgrading to Leopard, I had a folder named "Downloads" located on my desktop that Firefox saved files to. After upgrading to Leopard, I set the new Apple-supplied Downloads folder (located in my home folder) as the default location, but Firefox still refused to download files.
I manually moved everything from my own Downloads folder (located on the Desktop) to the Apple-supplied folder (in my home folder) and created an alias (for convenience) for this folder on the desktop. Alas, Firefox still refused to download.
Eventually, I just deleted the alias to the Downloads folder located on my desktop and now Firefox will download just fine. Kinda irritating...

Question about openning files using SDK 10.

I have written a Plug-In for SDK 9 that works wonderfully. One of the functions is for the user to be able to page (Next/Previous) between PDF files on our server. This functionality now longer works without crashing Acrobat 10. All I am doing is creating the URL path to the next/previous PDF, creating a CustomFileSys with the path and calling AVDocOpenFromFile.
Does this no longer work with Acrobat 10 SDK?
Thanks!

Should work fine, AFAIK.
For this level of issue, I would open a formal support request with developer support.

After updating os to 10.9.1can't open pdf files. I get a message saying It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn't recognise. I can still read older saved files but no new ones arriving by email. Any help would be appreciated.

After updating os to OSX 10.9.1 I can't open any new pdf files. I get a message saying It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn’t recognise. I can still read older saved files but no new ones arriving by email. Also can't attach a pdf to an email to send out. Any help would be appreciated.

Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
Step 1
If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to print by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar may appear under the cursor. Click the printer icon.
Step 2
There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
Step 3
If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
and check the box marked
Allow Plug-ins
Then click
Manage Website Settings...
and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
Step 4
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
Step 5
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others — I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
Step 6
Do as in Step 4 with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari.
