Regarding Migration to Adobe Forms

Hi Friends
 I am working on adobe print forms.
I have one doubt that is If SAP itself providing the option migrate smartform to Adobe Interactive form, what's the necessity to create the forms from scratch i.e why we have to create Interface,Context and Forms.
Is we get any flwas by simply migrating the smartform to adobe interactive form?
Please anyone explain me?
Points are assured for useful ansers.
Regards,
Sree

yes u can convert smartform into pdf. follow these steps.
1. first call your smart form as u do.
e.g. CALL FUNCTION '/1BCDWB/SF00000127'
in this just activate these two also
 IMPORTING
 DOCUMENT_OUTPUT_INFO = it_tab1
and this internal table (it_tab1) it will store the data of smart form.
2. then call fm to convert it_tab1 data into pdf.
call convert_otf
and in this fm just pass it_tab1.
EXPORTING
 format = 'DOC'
IMPORTING
 bin_filesize = v_pdf_len
TABLES
 otf = it_tab1
 lines = pdf_table
EXCEPTIONS
 err_max_linewidth = 1
 err_format = 2
 err_conv_not_possible = 3
 err_bad_otf = 4
 OTHERS = 5.
3. now u can save this fm on your local system.
second method
apart from allowing sap to convert your smart form to pdf u can also do it by downloading two software files
and then install it in your local system.
links for those files are.
http://www.pdf995.com/download.html
and download pdf printer driver from here
after that goto printer setup and make PDF995 as default printer.
and finally when your smart form is ready to print just click on print button then as your default printer is pdf995 it will convert your smartform into pdf and that u can save it in your system.
plz reward point .

Performance issue with Adobe forms

Dear SAP Experts,
We have the following issue/requirement from our client. The client is on SAP ECC 6.0 - production environment.
The client is highlighting performance issue while accessing the adobe forms for HR and FI business process ( both static and interactive ).
                Examples are
    FI – Invoice Approvals
                HR – Job Salary Change
The client is asking us to provide best practices surrounding:
1.       How to improve the performance of the adobe forms while accessing in SAP.
2.       Is there any other technology which we can use in SAP to replace the adobe forms which has better performance factor.
3.       Are there solutions such as webdynpro floor plan manager, UI Fiori which can be alternately used?
Regards,
Sakthi

Hello Priya,
     Adobe forms are easy to develop and much more comfortable than SAP Scripts and Smartforms. Initially they are a bit difficult but once you have your hands on, they are the most simplest things in ABAP.
Performance in Adobe forms is a mix of both fine tuning the Layout as well as back end coding.
Performance in Adobe forms cannot be done overnight. A lot of care has to be taken during the initial stage of development.
As far as my experience is concerned, please consider the below points while developing SAP Adobe forms.
1) Avoid Scripting (Javascript/Formcalc) as much as possible inside the form. It drastically reduces the performance and makes the form to execute slower. If you still want to use scripting(which cannot be avoided for some requirements), use Formcalc since it is comparatively faster than JavaScript.
2) Try to avoid the coding inside the Form Interface. You can always handle the maximum coding in the Driver program and pass it to the form.
3) Use Form Caching.
For forms that have fixed layout, its a good way to increase the performance of form rendering. In the layout, go to Form Properties. Then Click on Defaults tab and select Allow Form Rendering To Be Cached On Server. Then Click OK.
For forms that have flowable or dynamic layout, render the forms on the client side because it improves performance.
Last but not the least, please go through the below post by Otto Gold which is worth a read at least once.

Dynamic screen changes in adobe form

Hi Experts,
I have an adobe form with a form type radio button. Based on the form type selected (radio button), some of the fields on the adobe form should become editable and some uneditable.
How is it achievable? Please advise.
Thanks,
Shobhit

Hi Shobit,
This can be achieved using Scripting.
To make a field non editable
write ->
$.access = "readOnly"
You may please refer the adobe lifecycle designer help and also there are few blogs in SDN regarding - SAcripting in Adobe forms.
Hope these would help.

Adobe form central shutting down.

Hi
I am not very happy regarding the way adobe form central has been announced its shutting down, I have received no email regarding this issue only notification on log into my account.
there are no support or option to contact adobe regarding this matter.
I am a fully paid subscriber to the annual service and adobe are closing Form Central in June - My subscription is paid for a full year until dec 2015. I expect at the very least adobe to address annual subscribers and the fact they will no longer be providing a service mid way through their paid year. Combined with the fact i have many active forms.
The service from adobe when it comes to this sort of issue and support has been unacceptable.

Hi!
Many competitors of FormsCentral are checking these forums to help support the displaced users. I'm among them, with JotForm. =)
Our founder wrote a review of how the closure was handled, if it's of interest:
https://medium.com/design-of-a-technology-business/how-to-handle-a-saas-product-shut-down- 9ee92b5f6ec3
The best news is they gave everyone six months to make alternate plans. The blog announcement includes some alternatives, which we were happy to be included on.
FormsCentral is retiring | Adobe Acrobat Blog
JotForm just announced today that we have a one-step Import Wizard, which will migrates all your Adobe forms and response data, into our system. It just takes a minute. We expect it's by far the easiest migration tool available, should you choose to use our service long term.

Best of luck finding an alternate service, and we welcome your feedback.

https://weblogs.sdn.sap.com/weblogs/topic/45?x-o=50
Interactive Forms based on Adobe software is SAP's new solution for forms development. Its first release has the focus on interactive use of forms. High-volume printing is supported in principle, but - being a new solution - the performance has not yet reached the same level as Smart Forms or SAPscript, two established solutions that had years to grow. Interactive Forms is the only solution that will continue to be enhanced with new features, while SAPscript and Smart Forms will be supported without limitations.
When (or if) to move to Interactive Forms depends on your requirements. For interactive forms usage, i.e. the new functions, you have no choice, as the existing solutions don't support it. High-volume print scenarios need to be carefully analyzed to see whether your concrete requirements can be met at this point.
However, it is possible to move to Smart Forms and design your forms in such a way that a migration at any point in the future would be but a small step. Smart Forms offers from Web AS 6.40 a migration wizard to Interactive Forms. Technically, everything can be migrated, but we recommend against things like ABAP program nodes, for example.
You are not forced to ever go to Interactive Forms if you don't want to. It really depends on whether your client needs any of the new features in Interactive Forms. Also, if they are currently working with JetForms, they could enquire with Adobe directly what migration path they offer to the joint solution.

example
To get an overview idea about Adobe forms ,
Using SFP Tcode , first you need to create a interface . in interface you can declare the import and export parameters and also the declaration part, coding etc : This is nothing but similar to Function module interface.
And now we have to create the Form which is interactive. Create the form and enter the interface name which you have created in first step, so that the parameters , declarations of fields etc : will be copied and available in the form layout. So that you can drag and drop these declared fields ( dclared fields of interface ) to the layout.
Create the context and layout in the form.
The layout generated can be previewed and saved as PDF output.
Now we need to integrate the driver program and the PDF form to get the final output as per the requirement.
On activating and executing the form you will get a function module name just similar to smartforms.
The driver program needs to call this FM.
Refer to the below sample code :
DATA : is_customer TYPE scustom.
DATA : it_bookings TYPE ty_bookings.
DATA : iv_image_url TYPE string.
DATA : iv_sending_country TYPE adrc-country.
DATA : it_sums TYPE TABLE OF flprice_t.
DATA : docparams TYPE sfpdocparams.
DATA : formoutput TYPE fpformoutput.
DATA : outputparams TYPE sfpoutputparams.
PARAMETERS : pa_cusid TYPE scustom-id.
SELECT SINGLE * FROM scustom INTO is_customer
WHERE id = pa_cusid.
SELECT * FROM sbook
INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE it_bookings
WHERE customid = pa_cusid.

Regarding WD ABAP Tutorial for Adobe forms

Hello,
I'm having difficulty finishing tutorial for WD ABAP interactive forms by Thomas Jung..Questions:
1) Do we have to create an WD application to run it or do we have to test it using the pdf file? in the SDN video its not clear what to do after completing the exercise with form editor?
2) In the Adobe form editor from SE80, my file menu is blank...i cant use 'import'pdf from menu since there is no menu although I can drag n drop the elements from libraries.
Please let me know if I'm missing any installation or support packs!
Regards,
Ahmad

If you aren't seeing anything at all then there may be a problem with your ACF (Active Control Framework). The ACF is only used when running the adobe form in web dynpro in interactive mode. The ACF is generally installed along with the SAPGui, but may not be updated properly when the SAPGui is updated. Also there are some dependencies in the ACF version and the backend ABAP system version.
I had problems on my laptop when I first tried to use interactive forms in Web Dynpro ABAP. My form displayed, but I couldn't trigger the Submit to SAP event. I found several OSS notes on the ACF topic. I had to uninstall my current ACF version and install the version specific to Netweaver04S SP7. Just installing the SP7 version of the ACF did NOT work. Once I got the ACF all cleaned up, everything worked fine. Incidently the problems I had before patching the ACF effected both Web Dynpro ABAP and Web Dynpro Java.

Problem regarding designing adobe form

hi,
we have a assignment.
we have to attach a adobe form to a transaction ME4L(display request for quotation)
so that by default instead of a script an adobe form
should come.
how to attach a adobe form to the transaction using NACE.
is there any requirement of modifying the print program(SAPFM06P) ?
pl suggest the solution as soon as possible.
 regards
 swamy.

> how to attach a adobe form to the transaction using NACE.
> is there any requirement of modifying the print program(SAPFM06P) ?
in the NACE transaction you can give the form name against the PDF/Smartform , and choose the Type as 'PDF' in the form routines.
you need to change the Logic to call the Adobeform. (check the programs FP_TEST*)
if you are familiar with Smartform then you can easily do that..
step1# call function FP_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME
step2# call function FP_JOB_OPEN
step#3 call function 'DYNAMICFUNCTION' <--- from the step1.
step4 # call function FP_JOB_CLOSE
I would suggest you to create the new Driver program(copy the program SAPFM06P) and modify the changes to tigger the Adobeform.

Its regarding accessing Adobe Forms from KM

Hi,
i know how to access data in adobe forms(offline process) in our desktop through Upload UI element but i want to access data from adobe forms in KM.Please tell me any body know about this.
Regards,
surya.

Hi surya,
I dont know exactly but these code could may give you some hing
IWDClientUser wdClientUser = WDClientUser.getCurrentUser();
IUser user = wdClientUser.getSAPUser();
com.sapportals.portal.security.usermanagement.IUser ep5user = WPUMFactory.getUserFactory().getEP5User(user);
IResourceContext context = new ResourceContext(ep5user);
IResourceFactory resourceFactory = ResourceFactory.getInstance();
String logFile = "/documents/pdfFileName.pdf"; // PDF file locaiton in KM
RID rid = RID.getRID(logFile);
IResource resource = resourceFactory.getResource(rid, context);
Now after getting your file in resource you can use ByteArrayInputStream or InputStreamReader for your futher process.
