Uploading fillable PDF form to the web

I have created a fillable PDF form in Acrobat 9, which opens fine as a fillable PDF from my desktop. I also uploaded it to our website but when i open it up from the web; it is no longer fillable. Can you tell me how to fix this?
Thanks
Melissa

That really depends on how a user (client) machine is set up, as opposed to something you can do on the web server. For example, the user can configure Acrobat/Reader so that it does not open in their browser, but rather directly in Acrobat/Reader. Or they can set things up so that PDFs are always downloaded and not automatically opened in Acrobat/Reader. You could provide instructions for downloading the PDF on the page that has the link to your form.

Uploading a PDF form to the internet

I have a program that users can download from my website, but I want to keep track of who is downloading it. I've created a simply form in LiveCycle, gathering the basic information. What I want to happen is when a user clicks on the download link, they're redirected to the form. Once they click Submit, the download begins.
Any helpers?

I might be making this harder than it needs to be. I can direct users to my form. However, is there a way to give the Submit button two tasks (first, submit the results on the form and two, redirect the user to the download)?

PDF forms and file uploads

I realize that FormsCentral does not currently support file uploads (aka attachments) when using a PDF form to submit. In several of this places I've read this, it seems to imply that PDF forms to not support file uploads. I also noticed that when a PDF form is enabled for use with FormsCentral, the submit format is "HTML" (i.e., URL-encoded, or multipart/form-data when file attachments are present). PDF forms do indeed support file uploads in the same way that HTML forms do, so I'm wondering why FormsCentral doesn't allow them with PDF forms. On the form side, all it takes is setting up a text field so it can be used for file selection (Field Properties > Options > [Scroll Long Text] && [Field is used for file selection]) along with the field.browseForFileToSubmit JavaScript method (http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.734.html) with a button. The data is sent in the same format as with an HTML form, so it isn't difficult to process. What's the reason for this limitation, or will this method in fact work? I know that PDF forms can also support attachments two other ways, either as actual file attachments to the PDF or as a files attached as a comments, but these types are not what I'm asking about.

Randy,
Thank you for the reply. I am a bit surprised though, as I recall about 10 years ago modifying a CGI program designed to process HTML form submissions that could included file uploads. I didn't have to change any of the code that parsed the input when it was used with a PDF form that submitted as "HTML", since the format of the POSTed data is the same. I did have to modify the code that generated the response (to return an FDF), but that's a different matter. I think it would be great to support file uploads with PDF forms, as well as submitting as FDF.

PDF form tabs jumble when uploading to web

I am trying to upload multiple PDF forms that I created to my website and when I go to view the forms and test them, I notice that the tabs are no longer in the correct order. Is there a way to correct this issue?

A PDF that has been Reader Extended activates latent Adobe Reader functionality such as save filled in forms, annotate, sign, and submit interactive Adobe PDF documents. For more info see

ADOBE pdf Forms upload on EP

Hi,
Can somebody pls tell me the steps to upload ADOBE pdf Forms on Eportal...
We have a requirement in which the user can download the pdf forms from EP & upload it again on EP doing some changes in pdf.
Thanks in Advance,
Nikesh Shah

Hi Nikesh,
As per your description you would like to use the PDF forms to update data in the CRM system. In that case you will be required to create a Webdynpro application which will work with some RFF/BAPI which will update data in the CRM tables.
To use Adobe forms you need to have Adobe LiveCycle Designer installed and configured with SAP EP Server.
The option you currently use is not linked to any backend system and that file is being stored in the KM repository of the EP server.
Please visit the following link for more details:

There is an example also which you can visit at:

Error message when trying to upload a pdf file to a form

A user was trying to upload a pdf file to a form I created (Contractor Vanpool Application Form). The parameters I set, was that it had to be a pdf form, less than 20MB and a single file. She met these parameters, but when she hit the submit button, she received this dialogue box message: Warning: JavaScript Window - File Attachments are not supported in FormsCentral PDF forms. Please contact the form author to send the file attachments another way. This dialogue box prevented her from even getting as far as selecting the file and uploading. Another user was succesfully able to upload a form, so I know this is working. So I changed the parameters to allow multiple files in any format, and she still had a problem.
She states is using windows 95, Internet Explorer. Help, Michelle

In Form Central, when I add a field, I select the Add File Attachment icon (see screen shot below - it is the 10th icon from the left, the paperclip over a sheet):
Then it allows me to fill in the field, describing the file to upload, and the properties to the right defining the file size limit, type of file and other properties. This is all done through formscentral, thus allowing a user in my form to upload a file that is attached to the form when submitted.

Why can't I create Fillable PDF Forms using Adobe Acrobat X Pro and upload to Dreamweaver?

I can create fillable PDF Forms using Adobe Acrobat X Pro. I can email them to someone using Adobe Reader (free) and they can fill them, save and email to me. But when I upload the form to Dreamweaver CS5, the form is not fillable. And yes, I saved it as a Reader Extended PDF-Enable Additional Features.

I see no reason for this form to fail in Reader. Some questions for you.
1. On the system with Adobe Reader, what is the system and the version of Adobe Reader?
2. Are you viewing the PDF in a browser on the system with Reader, or in an Adobe Reader window?
3. If it's a browser
(a) what is the browser
(b) if you download the file instead, and open directly in Reader, what happens?

Using PHP to process submitted PDF Form and Upload FDF to Server

Hi All,
I have a PDF form online (created in Acrobat 9.0 Pro, NOT LiveCycle Designer!) that, once a user has filled it out and clicks the submit button, I want two things to happen:
1) I want the data from the form to be submitted to a custom PHP script, which I can do several different things with (store the data in a MySQL database, for example).
2) I would also like to upload/store/save (not sure of the proper vernacular) the filled out form (FDF file) to the web server.
Now what I need from you lovely people, either directly, or point me to where I can find the following:
1) How/What options do I choose for the Submit button in Acrobat 9.0 Pro when I create the PDF?
2) What/Where can I find a PHP code snippet to get the data from fields in the submitted form?
3) I know you can set up an Acrobat form to e-mail a copy of the FDF file to a specified e-mail address. Instead of emailing that FDF file, I want to store it directly to a folder on my web server. However, just setting the URL in the submit button to a folder on my web server doesn't seem to do the trick. So, I guess what I need is to somehow reference the FDF file with my custom PHP script... something like $_POST["fdffile"] ???? Please if anyone knows how to do this, please let me know! Because, if I can reference the FDF file, I can then use PHP's built in FTP functions to upload it to a specific folder on my web server.
Thanks for any input!!!

HI All,
can someone please quide me how I can make this code to work for me?
Where and what folder I have to put this PHP script?
What my http will be?( I will use localhost)
What the name of my PDF file(create by LiveCycle Designer)
What the name of the file I will receive and where(folder) will be send it via the server?
I see these name below in the PHP script but I can not make out what....
configuration.php
administrator/xml
administrator/pdf
THANK you

How to: Secure pdf form that is emailed and later uploaded

We have a pdf form that will be posted on our website. Local college/university faculty will link to the form on their websites or just give students the link to our page. Students will fill the form and it will be emailed to a faculty member from their specific school. The faculty member then needs to review the form and select candidates to present for an internship. At that point, they need to upload the form back to our server.
This form will contain sensitive information and therefore needs to be secure during the filling, emailing, and uploading processes. The faculty member receiving it needs to be able to access it as does the person on our end that will do the final reviewing after it is uploaded back to us.
I have no idea how to even start. I've created interactive forms but have never embedded one in an website. The closest I've come is a recently created web application that filled a pdf form in the code-behind and then emailed it, but that didn't require any security.
Any help will be appreciated.

Yeah I kinda figured that... Really too bad. Seems lke it should be possible somehow. Anyway, do you all have any suggestions about the best way to combine a static form that is really just text fields and such (that comments and markup tools can be used in) with another page that is sections of narrative that would need to be able to flow?
Or better yet, a way to draw lines on to a form without using the comment and markup function?
I like your idea about connecting two forms - but I need to keep the final product as simple as possible. Once the user fills it out, they would be to be able to submit it and it show up as one file, even if that is just a flat file. I don't expect you all to tell me how to do this, but it would be nice to know its possible before I commit to the project and research. Thanks in advance.

Trying to upload pictures from and iPad on to a pdf form (Adobe FormsCentral)

Im trying to upload pics from my iPad onto an pdf form also on my iPad. Is there a special code that I need?

A few users have been successful using a powered USB hub. Plug the camera into the hub and plug the hub into your iPad.
If your camera has an SD card, use the card instead.
If your camera doesn't use an SD card, import the pics to your computer.
Then you can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive (works the same with an SD card) into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

Hi,
I will try to find the standard function module. If there is no such standard function module, then we need to create a custom function module.
Check this link:
[https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/adobe]
Points that you can note:
1) Adobe Interactive forms can be created & connected to SAP database using ABAP Workbench, through WebDynpro.
2) Also adobe Interactive forms can be created & connected to SAP database using Transaction SFP.
3) And for both of the above 'Adobe Live cycle Designer' should be installed on the front end.

I have a pdf doc that I have email buttons attached to button when I go to upload it to forms central so I can add a submit button to it it enables my email buttons.

You select the printer properties and set the appropriate page size (I think there is a place to set it in PDF Maker too, but not sure). In the printer, this is equivalent to putting the proper paper in the printer.

Hi, will my downloadable PDF forms look exactly the same as when I upload but with spaces filled in?

Hi, will my downloadable PDF forms look exactly the same as when I upload but with spaces filled in?

Not sure I understand the question. Are you talking about the "Download Response as PDF" feature (to see the PDF filled out with the filler's data) or the "Download Submission Enabled PDF" (to sent to people to fill out)?
If you imported a PDF in FormsCentral, the Submission Enabled PDF will look exactly the same as the imported PDF plus a submit button
If you designed the form in FormsCentral and save the Submission Enabled PDF it will look very similar to the web form (switch the view in the Design Tab to Page View to see what the PDF will look like)
The PDF doesn't use skip logic or show/hide logic so this mean that the PDF always shows all the form elements
I answered a similar question today. See http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1251981

Converting PDF forms from Acrobat to reader, Images won't upload?

Hello,
I've created an editable PDF form in Acrobat and saved it so that the document can be populated in Reader and saved. Only problem is that the functionality to upload an image is not working, you click on it in Reader and nothing happens? I understand that LiveCycle Designer is the one to use, but it only works on Windows, I'm a Mac. Is there a way of saving the PDF in Acrobat Pro so that both the editable text fields and image upload functionality work in Reader?
Thanks
