Submitting a pdf form to a SharePoint 2010 library

Hello,
I have a pdf form that was created in Adobe LiveCycle. Right now the submit form button it configured to send the form to an email address. I need to be able to submit the form to a SharePoint 2010 document library but I can't get it to work. I get to the point where I can select the document library. A test document is send with "Testing Writeablility" inside but I am not able to click next to finalize the process. I have included a picture of where I get stuck at.
Is it possible to have a submit button send the form to a SharePoint library?
If it is can anyone please explain what I am doing wrong?
Thank you very much.

In case you need more, than just to save form in library as a file... Take a look on www.pdfshareforms.com. PDF Share Forms is a product wich allows to integrate PDF forms to SharePoint. It provides very powerful functionality: bi-directional data sync between form fields and SharePoint columns, offline support, digital signatures, workflows, etc.

Submitting PDF Form to SharePoint 2010 Library

I've inherited a simple PDF form created with LiveCycle ES2. We'd like to be able to let users Submit the result of the form in a PDF format, to a SharePoint 2010 Library using a Submit button. I've added a button and configured the Control Type to Submit. I've added a SharePoint library to the Submit to URL: field and changed to Submit to PDF. Now when I click the button, it opens the SharePoint library but nothing is there. I'm sure there's more I need to do to get this working. Do I need to install the server-side stuff for LiveCycle on the SharePoint server?

This is not striclty my area of expertise so I don't want to give you a bum steer - at best my response is vague but it may give you a few clues of where to start looking. I'm not too sure how you might have confgured this but your PDF form needs somewhere to send the data and then receive and store it - that's not a SharePoint list or document library (I seem to recall reading somewhere that you can do clever stuff with PDF and SharePoint but I don't think it works out of the box like you're describing here - that info basically alluded to using PDF and SharePoint together [like marketing statements] but didn't go into the hows). I suspect that submitting a PDF form may result in an XML data stream but don't quote me on that either. Alternatively if Acrobat is going to collate results then I think the form being submitted may need to end up in the same locaiton as the "master" PDF form but again I'm guessing a bit here too. For all intents the "master" pdf form may need to reside in SharePoint (and as a result it is addressable on a URL or as a file via WebDAV) in which case it will (or ought to) function like any other PDF form where you can collate results to a spreadsheet. If thats all it can do then using SharePoint seems moot. I think Google is your friend here :-)

Submitting a PDF form and Error Message

One of my users received the following error message when submitting a PDF form: "An error occurred during the submit process. The server has an invalid SSL certificate." Can anyone tell me what this error is and how do I prevent it?

I have had the same error - we are behind a webfilter which is very tight
can you please advise the domains i need to whitelist?
many thanks

Sharepoint 2010 Library - All documents are Read Only regardless of permissions and clicking edit

Good afternoon all,
I'm running out of places for me to find assistance on this issue, and am hoping you can help. We're running Sharepoint 2010 as our Intranet. Myself and the rest of the IT staff are administrators, and we're looking under a section that we're specifically
in control of where we have documents for our use. One of the administrators reported that he wasn't able to open a document, and neither was I. This was an older spreadsheet that was never converted. I couldn't open it either, nor could I delete it or manipulate
the entry in the library. I could open explorer and open the file that way, or download it through Chrome.
I was able to remove the file, upconvert the file to .xlsx, and reupload it. Now myself and the users are able to open the file, but we can't manipulate it. In addition to this, it seems that any Office file that we attempt to open in Sharepoint opens up
in Read Only. If we click Read Only, and hit Edit, it stays Read Only (once in a blue moon it allows us to edit it). If we hit edit it still says Read Only at the top.
I'm not the most experienced at Sharepoint so any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Integration between InfoPath web forms (browser side), SharePoint 2010, and Word or Excel

To begin with the end in mind, here's what I need to do:
User A (employee) fills out infopath form in browser.
User A saves infopath form, workflow runs, and sends a link to the manager
User B (Manager) opens infopath form, clicks a button, and all the information from the saved infopath form magically appears in a excel document
Here's how I did it, because I couldn't find an easier way to do it. This is an InfoPath no-code solution (uses web service and workflow I had to build) and this is working somewhat:
In InfoPath Designer 2010, created the form from Blank 2007 form template.
Published the form and promoted fields to Sharepoint 2007 as a new forms library.
Created a view on forms library to show all fields (SQLExportView1).
Created SSIS package to import data from SharePoint forms list using the view "SQLExportView1" into a new database and table in SQL Server (tblSQLExport1).
Created SQL Agent job to run this package every 2 minutes.
Created workflow to notify manager.
Created excel document with an external data connection to SQL server.
In SQL, created a stored proceedure ("spGetCurrentID") to truncate, then add a row to a table ("tblCurrentFormID").
On InfoPath form, added a button that takes the current infopath form "ID" into a table in SQL server by calling the stored procedure via a web service.
On Infopath form, added a hyperlink to the excel file which opens in the client.
In excel, added a button on the workbook that queries the SQL database for the current form ID, and drops it into a cell.
In excel, added a button on the workbook that queries the SQL database for the sharepoint list details that were exported via SSIS, returning only the row for the current form ID.
In excel, created a button on the workbook that displays the fields I want in the location I want
With over 25 users concurrently hitting the form library, there is a chance that when they open excel they will generate an excel document with bad data in it (data from someone else's current ID).
I've since migrated to SharePoint 2010, and it works the exact same way in 2010.
What I want to do is find a way to get the data that is already saved in the infopath form DIRECTLY to Excel by clicking a button without the web service, the stored procedure, the SSIS package, the SQL agent job, etc. My problem has always been
in getting the data from infopath into RAM/Clipboard/temp file(?) and imported into Excel by bypassing the SQL.
Of course, I would like to do this without requiring an administrator approved template in InfoPath, and have it be much more simpler to maintain. There are a lot of moving parts.
Please point me to any examples or make recommendations. The requirement is that users open the form, the data is filled out already, and with a click of a button, the data shows up in excel automatically in the right place for the item they're currently
looking at in infopath.
Now that I've got this working (kind of) for one excel document, management wants to add 25 other documents that this one infopath form can generate.
Therefore, once I get this to work better for one excel document, I can add other excel documents.
I've considered passing a parameter to the excel document in Excel Web Services, as I believe that excel web services 2010 can support this. However, I believe that the macros that run in the excel client okay won't work in excel web services 2010.
Users would prefer to open Excel in the client, though, so not sure I'm going to go down this path.

Clayton,
You rock - thank you for all your responses!
The infopath form was built doing what it does long before the need to get the data into Excel.
You are correct in that I could have modified the infopath code to save to SQL, but the fields in the form and on the forms library columns do change before and after the manager approves it. As such, adding some code to submit the infopath data to
SQL could have been used to write data into SQL server instead of leveraging SSIS/SQL Agent to do so. However the aformentioned workflow (see way up in the thread) does more than just send an email to the manager with a link. It also edits some fields in the
forms library column on that particular list item. By using SSIS, every two minutes they get the latest stuff from sharepoint into SQL without having to add code in the workflow or - if possible - on the infopath code that does a table update where item=abc.
It is common to get data from sharepoint into sql, regardless of whether or not it is a list or library (including infopath forms libraries). There is sample code on Codeplex that has been downloaded close to 40,000 times for this purpose which I'm sure
you are familiar with:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd365137(v=sql.100).aspx and
http://sqlsrvintegrationsrv.codeplex.com/releases/view/17652
I agree with you in so many ways on why they should not be using excel (or word) to present the information. Having InfoPath or a custom workflow magically convert the data presented on a specific view in a filled out InfoPath form to PDF and emailing it
would be wonderful, but it simply is not a possible solution.
Surely you're familiar with companies that have a word document that, say, a manager will email to someone as an attachment, then the employee prints out the word document, fills it out on paper and signs it with a pen (or fills out a fillable form, then
prints it), they then either fax it back or scan it and email it back to the manager, who then prints it out and hands it to a VP for a signature, etc. Yes, the process is very old-fashioned, but in health care, finance, and for legal compliance reasons,
some places simply have to do their manual processes the way they are. I've suggested and shown examples of how it can all be done electronically with digital signatures, etc., but their legal compliance officers and board members do not agree to this methodology.
As such, I work within the confines I am presented with, as I'm sure you've had to do as well.
I myself have worked for several Fortune 100 firms for many years (Microsoft, T-Mobile, etc), know what is possible. However the place I am at now, many of those options simply are not possible.
They use excel (and word) because that is the templates the legal department and third party companies they work with gives them to work with.
If you've used enterprise OCR systems (LaserFiche, OnBase, Hyperion, etc.) you would be familiar with the fact that in order to scan and index keywords from OCR cover pages, the document has to have fields in a certain location. While I have tried to
get the InfoPath form to line up properly, I cannot print out headers or footers and page breaks where the OCR system requires and expects them to be. What's more: when you print a filled out infopath form that loads browser side, as you know you get the browser-related
stuff with it. Although they're all on the same web browser (finally - IE8) and all on windows 7 and office 2010, I cannot control the fact that some users use large fonts and other accessability features to make their 21" screens run at 640x480 (exaggeration).
When you do this, it changes the margins in the print area, and more.
If I could take the data that is in infopath, merge it with an excel template, and export that to PDF, that could be an option. Not looking to buy some enterprise PDF generating product, though, and looking to do this as close to a no-code solution as possible.
Why we're suggesting PDF, perhaps we should be considering XPS, since we are staying with the Microsoft technology stack here.
Perhaps I should rephrase my original question like this: "I have 25 different documents that all need to be filled out automatically. Each document has different text on it, but the fields that need to be filled out on the documents are almost all
the same. I want to present one form for users to fill out, and once saved, to generate all 25 different documents. How would you do this?". While not entirely accurate, as not all 25 documents need to be created at once, only on demand with a click of a button
for each document, perhaps that is a better way of stating the need.
Thank you Clayton (and all you lurkers out there hoping to find out how we solve this).

Submitting a PDF form via HTTP Post: Beginner's Questions

Hi,
I am completely new to PDF forms, so I have been finding the documentation and options overwhelming.
I am hoping to get pointed to the documentation/tutorials/examples I really need.
I would like to build a "proof of concept" for my boss. I would like to include a screen in our Java ( JSP & Spring ) webapp where either a PDF form is embedded or is accessed via a link.
I have
Adobe Acrobat Distiller X standard license
Adobe Acrobat X Standard
Microsoft Office 2010
I made a small, 3 field Microsoft Word form. I then converted it via DIstiller into a PDF form.
I then found this document about how to submit a PDF form to a server side component:
http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/form-submit-e-mail-demystified
My big problem with this document it doesn't have an example nor an example showing what is going on in a full HTML page. As I result I have some questions:
Can I see such an example somewhere?
Does the call to the javascript function doc.SubmitForm(urlToMyServerSideComponent) go in a script tag on the HTML page like other javascripts?
Can I execute that submit function from an HTML button or do I need to put a "submit" button on the PDF form?
Do I need Adobe LiveCycle in order to create a PDF form with a "submit" button? Free versions?
Can I send via HTTP POST ?
Do I need Adobe LiveCycle to crate a PDF form with a digital signature?
Is there a document/tutorial that fits where I am starting off from? ( Please no books, I am tyring to show my boss that this is something that can be done, in a reasonable amount of time, not time to get and go through a book ).
Thanks in advance for any tips that get me pointed in the right direction
Steve

To answer some of your specific questions:
2, 3. The submit form button needs to be on the PDF. You can either configure a Submit Form action or use the submitForm JavaScript method.
4, 6: No to both questions. You can create the form in Acrobat. Such forms are knows as Acroforms, as opposed to XFA forms that are created with LiveCycle Designer. Acroforms have wider support.
5: Yes, that's the method that's used when submitting to a web server. You have your choice of formats. The "HTML Form" option causes the form data to be submitted in the same format as an HTML form, so the same type of server-side code can be used to process the data. As Dave's tutorial shows, the server should return an FDF as the response, however, as opposed to HTML content.
It's a mistake to try to embed the PDF in a web page. So much depends on the user's browser, PDF viewer, and how both are configured. PDF forms can be submitted directly from Adobe Reader/Acrobat, so it's not necessary for them to be viewed in a browser. Note that Adobe Reader for iOS/Android don't yet support submitting to a web server (apart from FormsCentral), but that's is supposedly being worked on.
Since you mentioned digital signatures, be aware that for Reader users to be able to sign, the document has to be Reader-enabled, either with Acrobat Pro or LiveCycle Reader Extensions (which is not the same as LiveCycle Designer). Digital signatures in PDF forms are not yet supported on mobile devices. Also, you will want to submit the entire PDF, as opposed to just the form data, when submitting a digitally signed form.

How do I get my XDP form in the SharePoint 2010 Adobe Form library?

I was able to get the Adobe LiveCycle samples for SharePoint to work. For some reason, I can't get my XDP forms to show up in the selection dropdown in the Adobe Form Library on SharePoint using the Adobe LiveCycle SharePoint connector for SharePoint 2010.
Is there a trick that you have to do to the form to make it available. The only difference that I noticed was the sample forms used a guide.
We are using Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES3 and we have Adobe LiveCycle server ES4. We are using SharePoint 2010.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Joe

I got this problem solved.
Solution:
Create new Adobe Livecyle form
Have an xsd created for the schema of what is going to be in the form
Import that data model when creating the form
Right-click on xsd data connection in form. Click Connection Properties.
Click Next.
Click the checkbox "Embed XML Schema" (This is what I was missing).
Click Finish.
That's it to make the form show up in the SharePoint Adobe Form Library.

Elementary Problem With Submitting A PDF Form Via Email?

Hello all!
I'm brand new to creating forms with Adobe. I have Acrobat X Pro. I have created a form with multiple fields to fill in and placed a button at the top of the form. Under button properties I selected the submit a form option under the actions tab and chose to email the entire pdf file. Where it says enter a URL for this link I put mailto: and my email address.
When I click on the submit button I choose the desktop application option as I use Outlook exchange. (that could be the problem?) I click on the ok button and immediately get a pop up box that says "Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging request. Please run Microsoft Outlook and set it as the default client.
I have no idea how to fix this issue or if I'm creating the submit form improperly. My goal is to get an exact copy of the completed Adobe form emailed to the specified email address. Any help would be much appreciated!
Mike

Submitting a PDF form --- save and send completed PDF document?

A small government site has a number of 'submittable' PDF
form documents
that they'd like me to include on the website. I am not very
familiar
with PDF forms in this way, and hope someone here can help
sort out a
few things...
Can a PDF form be submitted so that
a) the completed PDF doc is saved on the server (and renamed)
b) a printable , completed PDF (looks just like the one they
filled out,
with all their values saved in the input boxes) is emailed to
specific
address
c) the raw user data is saved to database (maybe a list of
fields in one
column of a db table, and a matching list of values in
another? this
would just be for backup in case the completed PDF did not
save
correctly to the server, or for later reference)
We've looked at the standard Acrobat 'submit via email' and
that won't
cut it... that method appears to simply trigger a 'mailto'
popup, with
the pdf as an attachment. Our system needs to be automated
via CFmail.
None of these would handle any 'sensitive' information, the
main
concern, from their part, is people being able to submit the
form and
have both the city office and the recipient get a copy that
prints just
as if they had hit 'print' when filling out the actual PDF.
Is all of this possible ??
if so... any tips appreciated!

Please help with submitting a pdf form

I've spend the last few days (literally) searching and searching - in this forum and across the web - for a SIMPLE solution to this problem and found nothing. Actually, I have found a few posts apparently trying to do the same thing I am, but with never a solution beyond "hire a programmer." Maybe I'm missing something obvious out there, and if so please feel free to throw tomatoes at me (along with a link I can get what I need - lol)
At this point I'm completely stumped - furthermore, I'm not a code guru in the slightest. In my research, I did find and buy a script that was supposed to do what I needed - but it doesn't so I'm still stuck and $50 in the hole.
Moving on, I realize this may be a rather low-tech request given the power of Adobe forms, but I have a client who wants it this way so that's the way it has to be. So, here we go...
My client wants his website viewers to complete an employment application pdf form and click <submit>
I have the form completely finished and ready to go
He then wants to receive that same completed form as a PDF document as an email attachment
He cares nothing about processing the form DATA (fields) becuase he simply wants to print the form and save it to his computer for future reference
However...
Most of the people viewing and completing this app are NOT computer savvy
In fact, many viewers use public computers (such as at a library) and have no email capabilities or the ability to save the form
So I cannot use the basic submit-by-email function (that requires a desktop email client)
So far what I've been trying to do (with the purchased script referred to above) is direct my <submit> button to the url of the php script on the client's server. If I select "html" in the (pdf) submit dialogue box, I do in fact get the DATA from the form in an email. But that's not what I need. If I select "entire pdf document" in the submit dialogue box, I get an error w/ the script.
In my research I've read that the form DATA can be sent to the server, then parsed back into a PDF form. This seems logical but unnecessary. Also this is an 8 page form with LOTS of data fields, some are required others are optional.
Is there ANY WAY to have the same form a viewer is filling out and submitting simply sent as an email attachment from the server the form is hosted on???

Yes, that's possible, and I have just the script...
Sorry, I couldn't resist.
I would suggest that the best approach is to set up the form to submit just the form data as an FDF file. This avoids the limitations associated with Reader-enabling the form, which is necessary for the entire filled-in form to be submitted. You mentioned that just sending the form data is logical but unnecesary, but this will be by far the most reliable method.
Now, you just need a server-side program (script) that processes the form submission. Here's what the script would do:
1. Accept the incoming data and check that it is a valid FDF.
2. Attach the FDF to an email message that gets sent to your client
The recipient of the email can launch the FDF attachment and the corresponding PDF will load and get populated with the data in the FDF. The filled-in PDF can then be viewed/printed/saved.

How to send FDF file when submitting a PDF form

Most users do not have Pro only reader. I need to be able to send the fdf file so that when the
user launches the fdf file the digital signatures will be in tact and form fields populated. Is that possible?

Digital signatures are not form data. A digital signature is actually a way of encoding an entire file. So if a user applies a digital signature to a PDF form, then they have to submit the entire PDF. The entire PDF can be submitted from Reader if the PDF is Reader Enabled for Signing Rights. The enabling can be done from Acrobat Pro.

How to disable confirmation message when submitting a pdf form

How do I disable the confirmation mesage, so that the user does not get at message like " you form has been recieved" each time data is submitted?
The reason for my question, is that i have a pdf form that i'd like to fill out offline, store the settings (data) in an array and the when I get online again run a loop that populates the form with the values storen in my array and submits them one at the time to formscentral.
I'm able to make the loop work just fine, however I do not want to see the confirmation message each time data is submitted, because my loop is paused each time the confirmation message appears, and the only way to resume it, is to click "ok".
Hope someone can provide me with some help here

Hi,
>>however I do not want to see the confirmation message each time data is submitted, because my loop is paused each time the confirmation message appears, and the only way to resume it, is to click "ok".
Sorry, disabling the confirmation message is not possible. The confirmation is always enabled.

Submitting completed PDF forms by email rather than responses in a table

Can I set up my PDF form with a submit button that will email the completed form to me - I don't want to see the responses collated in a table as I need to file each completed form electronically per client?

Yes, but it would not have anything to do with FormsCentral. The simplest way to do this is to use Acrobat to add a button that has a "Submit a form" action for the Mouse Up event. The URL should be a mailto type URL and you should select "PDF The Complete document" as the Export Format:
If it needs to work with Reader prior to version 11 and/or includes digital signatures, you will have to Reader-enable the document with Acrobat. Exactly how you do that depends on which version you have:
Acrobat 9: Advanced > Extend Features in Adobe Reader
Acrobat 10: File > Save As > Reader Extended PDF > Enable Additional Features
Acrobat 11: File > Save as Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools (includes form fill-in & save)
Also, realize that submitting by email is not all that reliable. It simply won't work for many people as they don't have a desktop email client properly configured. There are also Acrobat licensing restrictions that come into play when you Reader-enable a document with Acrobat and make the form available to more than 500 recipients, as you do when posting to a web site. Submitting the form to a web server, as is done with FormsCentral, avoids these issues. If you need a filled-in form with FormsCentral, you can alsways export the form data and use various methods to populate a blank form. If you want to pursue this approach, post in the Acrobat Forms forum here.

How to REpublish Custom Task Forms (InfoPath) to SharePoint 2010 State Machine Workflows

PPS: when I save new Form to new location and add it to the project, it works.

I've found how can I republish changes. But it seems more like crutch than solution, but it works:
After republishing InfoPath form, I delete file from project (DEL on ApprovalForm.xsn in Solution explorer) and after it add it again. (Add/Existing Item). And then redeploy! Hurray!
Is there any way to redeploy a Task Form directly on the server without importing it in Visual Studio again? I am using some data connections in my task form which are different for different environments (staging, dev. etc.). Seems like I've to create a separate
Workflow WSP file for each envrionment. Any comments?
