Unicode (international) characters in cfpdfform with LiveCycle PDFs

Hi all
These are the details of my environment:
ColdFusion version: 8.0.1
Update level: C:/ColdFusion8/lib/updates/chf8010004.jar
Server OS: Windows Vista 64
Web server: Apache
I'm using cfpdfform in ColdFusion 8 to read a Livecycle 8.2.1 pdf form straight into the browser window, enter text into a couple of fields and then submit the form back to the same CF page and use the submitted XML to populate the same form.
So, the relevant bit of my code is as follows:
<cfif IsDefined("PDF")>
    <cfpdfform action="read" source="#PDF.content#" xmldata="myXMLData" />
    <cfset myXMLData = XMLParse(myXMLData)>
    <cfpdfform action="populate" source="c:\temp\myPDFForm.pdf" xmldata="#myXMLData#" overwritedata="true" />
<cfelse>
    <cfpdfform action="populate" source="c:\temp\myPDFForm.pdf">
        <cfpdfsubform name="topmostSubform">
            <cfpdfformparam name="TextField1" value="Hello! The time is #TimeFormat(Now(), 'HH:mm:ss')#" />
        </cfpdfsubform>
    </cfpdfform>       
</cfif>
This all works just fine, except that any multibyte unicode characters (e.g. Chinese) I enter into any text fields are lost (turned to question marks) when the form is populated from the submitted XML, even though I can see that the Unicode characters remain intact if I do a cfdump of the myXMLData variable on page submission.
I ordinarily have no problems with Unicode. I can write unicode characters in multiple foreign character sets to database and retrieve them just fine. I have site pages in several international character sets, and, as I have stated, the text I enter is displayed correctly in the correct foreign characters when I view a cfdump of the submitted form, so this appears to be specifically related to the PDF form populate side of things (or a setting in LiveCycle).
I have an inkling that the cause is that the LiveCycle form has its  text fields set to allow rich text and has a specific font set against  the fields, so I'm wondering whether the foreign character font, which  displays fine when I enter it into the form, is being lost (overwritten by the LiveCycle field font) when read  back into the form. Any ideas as to how to overcome this problem would  be gratefully accepted.

Okay, I think I got to the bottom of this. The following full page code works:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>cfpdfform Post and Populate Example</title>
</head>
<body>
<cfoutput>
<cfif IsDefined("PDF")>
    <cfpdfform action="read" source="#PDF.content#" xmldata="myXMLData" result="data" />
    <cfpdfform action="populate" source="c:\temp\myLiveCycleForm.pdf" xmldata="#myXMLData#" />
<cfelse>
    <cfpdfform action="populate" source="c:\temp\myLiveCycleForm.pdf" />
</cfif>
</cfoutput>
</body>
</html>
The key to stopping the Chinese characters from breaking was to remove the overwritedata attribute from the populate tag on the action page. In other words, changing
<cfpdfform action="populate" source="c:\temp\myLiveCycleForm.pdf" xmldata=""#myXMLData#" overwriteData="yes" />
to
<cfpdfform action="populate" source="c:\temp\myLiveCycleForm.pdf" xmldata="#myXMLData#" />
fixed the problem.
As an interim measure, I wrote out the submitted PDF form XML to a file and took a look at what was happening and used the XML file as the basis for populating the PDF form, like this:
<cfif IsDefined("PDF")>
     <cfpdfform action="read" source="#PDF.content#" xmldata="myXMLData" result="data" />
    <cffile action="write" file="c:\temp\myXMLData.xml" output="#myXMLData#" charset="utf-8" nameconflict="overwrite">
    <cfpdfform action="populate" source="c:\temp\myLiveCycleForm.pdf" xmldata="c:\temp\myXMLData.xml" />
<cfelse>
     <cfpdfform action="populate" source="c:\temp\myLiveCycleForm.pdf" />
</cfif>
As well as causing the Chinese characters to break, the overwritedata attribute when populating the form appears to strip out any rich text  formatting (CSS) from form fields.
Dropping the overwritedata attribute preserved the Chinese characters, regardless of whether the PDF form is populated directly from the posted PDF XML (as in the full example above) or via an XML file.
On a separate issue (one I'll post to the LiveCycle forum but I'm mentioning here for other people's reference), any XML which contains in-line CSS formatiing (e.g. individual words in bold text) using the span tag causes a ColdFusion error when used to populate the PDF form.

  • Error Message in Adobe Reader with LiveCycle PDF

    When I use Adobe LiveCycle 8.0 and save a form as Acrobatic Static 6 or 7 *.pdf, I open up Adobe Reader 7.0 and I get an error message. It states that the form I am trying to open requires a newer version and that some fields may not be displayed properly. Am I not doing something right when I save my form in LiveCycle?

    Susan, what's the exact version of Designer you're using. If you go to the Help->About Adobe LiveCycle Designer it'll tell you.

  • Merging data with LiveCycle questions

    I have LiveCycle Designer 8.0 and I didn't find a forum for it so just point me in the right direction if this is not the place.
    I have a couple of questions with merging data with Livecycle PDFS
    1. XDP is the file format for merging data with LiveCycle created PDFs (FDF was with Acrobat)? if not, what is the format?
    2. We want different colors of the same PDF without actually making the different PDFS, is there a way we can do this through the merging the data?  For example: In the XDP file, we specify the color of the border of a rectangle.  When the PDF merges with the data, will the PDF be able to change the border of the rectangle with the specified color?
    3. Can a picture (a specific size) be merged in the PDF?
    Thanks!

    1. XDP is the file format for merging data with LiveCycle created PDFs (FDF was with Acrobat)? if not, what is the format?
    An XDP file is simply an XML file that packages a PDF file in XML, along with XML form and template data. Data can be merged from generic .xml or the XML version of FDF called XFDF.
    2. We want different colors of the same PDF without actually making the different PDFS, is there a way we can do this through the merging the data?  For example: In the XDP file, we specify the color of the border of a rectangle.  When the PDF merges with the data, will the PDF be able to change the border of the rectangle with the specified color?
    Yes. Consider a field called 'firstName'. I can add a script to the form:ready event that checks the value of the data merged with the field and changes the border edge color to red if the data is not equal to 'Steve'.
    // customer.page1.firstName::ready:form - (JavaScript, client)
    if (this.rawValue != "Steve") {
         this.border.edge.color.value = "255,0,0";
    3. Can a picture (a specific size) be merged in the PDF?
    Yes.

  • Double byte characters turn into squares at PDF export use Unicode font

    Hi all,
    We developing with Visual Studio 2008, .NET 2.0 and Crystal Report XI Release 2 SP5 an international windows application. We use the font Arial Unicode MS in the rpt file. We translate the fix texts with the Crystal Translator (3.2.2.299).
    On the distributed installation of our software, the printout and preview displays the double byte characters properly (Japanese, Korean, Chinese), but when we export the report as PDF, the characters get displayed with squares. This happens also, when the font Arial Unicode MS is installed on the distributed installation on Windows XP Professional.
    I searched for hours for a solution in the knowlegde base articles and in forum of Crystal Report. I found one thread, which describes exactly our problem:
    [Crystal XI R2 exporting issues with double-byte character sets|Crystal XI R2 exporting issues with double-byte character sets;
    But we already introduced the solution to use Unicode font and I also linked the font Lucida Sans Unicode to the Arial Unicode MS, but we still face the problem.
    Due to our release on thursday we are very under pressure to solve this problem asap.
    We appreciate your help very much!
    Ronny

    Your searches should have also come up with the fact that CR XI R2 is not supported in .NET 2008. Only CR 2008 (12.x) and Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008 (10.5) are supported in .NET 2008. I realize this is not good news given the release time line, but support or non support of cr xi r2 in .net 2008 is well documented - from [Supported Platforms|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/7081b21c-911e-2b10-678e-fe062159b453

  • Making a PDF with LiveCycle then being able to edit pages, insert pages, delete pages, attach files to document, be readable in Adobe Reader etc.

    We have been working for some time with LiveCycle to creat a documents and have experienced a host of problems with the end product.
    1.  Images inserted into the LiveCycle PDF document often come up as "broken links" after editing the document and resaving it.
    2.  Documents will not display in Acrobat reader unless a digital signature is applied to them and the document is re-saved.
    3.  After making the document, we are unable to use Adobe Pro to insert pages, delete pages, or insert files into the document as attachments.
    The end state was to use the simplicity of LiveCycle to create a document and do most of the hard work, and then save it as a PDF document that could be easily edited with Adobe Pro.  It has proven difficult, to say the least, to figure out how to make this work.
    Thanks in advance for any assistance.

    1- Thank you
    2- It only seems rational that if I make a form with LiveCycle that I should be able to view it with Adobe Reader or Adobe Pro.
    Making a form with LiveCycle to be distrubuted to personnel internally that have Adobe Reader and Adobe Pro and cannot open it without it having a digital signature field in it that has just recently been signed just doesn't make sense.  Nor does it seem to make sense to have to purchase 200 additional licenses just for LiveCycle so that people can open a PDF that was made with LiveCycle.  If I make it in LiveCycle and only people with LiveCycle can open it, what is the purpose of making it to begin with?
    3- This also totally sucks.  In a standard Adobe Doc I can at least attach documents to it?
    So, what, exactly then, is the purpose of LiveCycle if the only benefit it seems to provide is ease of creation, but the end product has way less functionality?
    And how do I go about contacting an Adobe rep on the phone in regards to this without getting "there is no support for this product, go to Adobe.com"
    We have millions of dollars of Adobe software and can't get support other than hunting and pecking in these forums?  Really?

  • PDF created with LiveCycle will not display

      All the other PDF links in the email work.  However, the document created with LiveCycle give me this error in Firefox.  I have made all the updates according to Firefox for Adobe Reader and Java.  Still receiving this.  Any suggestions???  I can see it in Explorer but not firefox or Chrome.  Not everyone that will get this particular document will use Explorer.  Unfortunately, I need a fast answer.

    Well, since I fixed it in Chrome, it works for me.  However, my partner beside me doesn't have Chrome and he gets the same generic screenshot that I had earlier, even though we made the changes in his Firefox.  We're baffled...... The interactive form is the only form we can't pull. 

  • Reader 11.0.07 does not display content of PDFs created with LiveCycle Designer ES 8.1

    We use some PDFs created with LiveCycle Designer ES 8.1 which do not show any content when opened with Reader 11.0.07, only a blank display area or erratic copies of the screen behind it. Documents look fine in print preview though and also print correctly. Tried to change various security or display settings, no effect. Tried other machines, different hardware, different OS versions (Win7, Win8), same effect on every single device with 11.0.07 installed.
    Any ideas, anyone?!?

    Hi,
    Not sure why you are resolving the node (??), also I would not be inclined to include a period in the object name (.), maybe this is why you are resolving the node.
    Also I don't see in the script where you are calling the instanceManager, in order to use the addInstance method.
    Having said that the problem may be in the File > Form Properties > Defaults tab:
    Check that Preserve script changes is set to Automatic.
    Lastly is the form Reader Enabled? It would need to be for users with Reader to save the changes, including new instances of a repeating element.

  • PDF Generation with LiveCycle Data Services

    Hi everybody!
    I am using LiveCycle Data Services to generate a dynamic pdf. I worked with this tutorial : livedocs.adobe.com/livecycle/es/sdkHelp/programmer/lcds/pdfgen_1.html and i adapted the code to my own example.
    I created a pdf template with livecycle designer and i succeed to generate the pdf thanks to LiveCycle Data Services.
    Here is my problem :
    In LiveCycle Designer i create a table and bind my data connection (from xml source) to this table and i bind subforms to repeating data.
    It works when i try to open an overview of the pdf with LiveCycleDesigner.
    But when i try to generate the pdf with livecycle data service, there is no repeat of my data. There is only a number of items corresponding to the minimum of repeating i set in livecycle designer binding window...
    Is it possible to generate repeating data with LiveCycle DS ?
    an example of my xml source :
    <item id="1">
         <data>blabla</data>
    </item>
    <item id="2">
         <data>blabla</data>
    </item>
    In livecycle designer, if i set the minimum of repeating to 1,  LiveCycle DS generate a pdf with only one item.
    if i set the minimum of repeating to 2,  LiveCycle DS generate a pdf with only 2 items. etc.
    I don't know how to generate an indeterminate number of items...
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Bye
    Guillaume

    Hi Guillaume,
    there is no limitation. Dynamic PDF files can be generated with Livecycle Data Services.
    You should have a look at the XML file generated by your Flex code. Try to save it and see how the XML file behaves when you generate a PDF preview with Designer. You can go to the menu:  File >  Properties > Preview > Use XML test data...
    With the XFAHelper class, you can either load a PDF or a XDP file. Have you tried with a XDP ?
    I've attached a dynamic PDF file that I've created for a customer. I generate a dynamic PDF file using LiveCycle Data Services. Maybe you'll find some clues within the file.

  • Is possible in acrobat reader fill in and save interactive PDF created with LiveCycle Designer?

    is possible in acrobat reader fill in and save interactive PDF created with LiveCycle Designer?

    Hi,
    Only if the form has been Reader Enabled before it is sent out to the user with Reader.
    There are two ways of Reader Enabling the form. One using Acrobat Standard v9 or Acrobat Professional v8 (both have license restrictions). The other is to use LC Reader Extensions ES2, which is a server product (additional costs).
    Some info here:
    http://www.assuredynamics.com/index.php/2010/11/using-livecycle-forms-in-acrobat-and-reade r/
    A search of the forums for "Reader Extensions" or "Reader Enable" will give more information.
    Hope that helps,

  • Problem with international characters showing up as junk

    Hi All,
    Little question.
    I've made a xml data template which executes a query to fetch person names from the e-business suite tables.
    However there are international characters in the names which are showing up incorrectly. When executing the query in the database everything shows up correctly. But when the query is executed via XML publisher the produced XML contains junk characters.
    This is happening with for example o umlaut characters.
    The database characterset is: WE8ISO8859P1
    Version of XML publisher: 5.6.3
    Patrick

    This turned out to be an extra property which was set in the data template:
    property scalable_mode with value "on"
    This caused the special characters to be mangled.

  • Uploading pdf files created with LiveCycle Designer ES4

    I uploaded some pdf files to my server that were designed with LiveCycle Designer ES4.  I can open them directly from the server using my SmartFTP program, however when I
    try to download using the URL, I get the following message:
    Please wait. . .
    If this message is not eventually replaced by the proper contenst of teh document, your PDF viewer may not be able to display this type of document.
    You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader for Windows . . . .
    I have both the latest version of Adobe Reader and Acrobat Pro XI installed on the computer.
    Any thoughts??

    Hi,
    Only if the form has been Reader Enabled before it is sent out to the user with Reader.
    There are two ways of Reader Enabling the form. One using Acrobat Standard v9 or Acrobat Professional v8 (both have license restrictions). The other is to use LC Reader Extensions ES2, which is a server product (additional costs).
    Some info here:
    http://www.assuredynamics.com/index.php/2010/11/using-livecycle-forms-in-acrobat-and-reade r/
    A search of the forums for "Reader Extensions" or "Reader Enable" will give more information.
    Hope that helps,

  • IPad PDF with LiVeCycle Designer

    Will I ever be able to open a PDF on my iPad that was created with LiveCycle Designer?

    XFA (LiveCycle) support is a feature that is requested frequently.  As such, it is something we are looking to provide some level of support for in a future release.  If the Mobile Reader were to support Static XFA form fill-in, would this meet your needs?  Or do you require additional features above and beyond this capability?

  • Display issue with LiveCycle Designer ES4 for cropped PDF in WIN7

    Hi,
    I am having issue displaying the cropped PDF file in the LiveCycle Designer ES4. The PDF files are cropped 3 inches from bottom using Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional. It used to display properly when we have a WinXP machine but once we moved to a Win7 machine, it cannot display the top part of the PDF anymore. Can anyone help on how to fix the display issue? Thanks.
    Kenny
    Environment:
    Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES4 V11.0.0.2013.0303.1.892433
    Adobe Acrobat 8.0.0
    Screenshots
    Win 7, LiveCycle Designer does not display properly
    Win XP, LiveCycle Designer used to display properly

    Thanks vNohria.
    I am having same issue with Adobe Acrobat 9. The Acrobat 9 cropped file is displaying properly under WinXP but have the same issue as above in Win7. This issue seems uncommon as I tried to look for similar issue  and couldn't find any.
    P.S. It's only the Design View in Win7 that has the issue, I can still see the file fine with Preview PDF in both enviornment.
