Variations of a fixed content multi page Form
Problem Statement:
There are two variations of a fixed content page Form. This form runs for multi-pages say 10 pages of fixed content. One variation has an additional 4 to 5 line fixed text contents enclosed by a rectangular box object at the top of the page right below the title of the Form on the first page and there no other differences Vs the second variation.
Approach:
The form is created using a multiple page Section.
Question:
Can we avoid creation of multiple version of Sections in Documaker with use of any special Studio rules to insert the conditional rectangular box object with the 4 to 5 line contents between the Title of the form and the first paragraph based on a trigger?
Assume that the First version and the second version of the form contents can be differentiated with a trigger or signal say "0" or "1" in the extract.

Dynamic growing rectangles are supported in Documaker, review the Rule Book for the GorupBegin rule. This rule needs to be implemented at the section level.
A box can also be place around a text area as a border. You can implement this as only one section using a variety of options, however its not clear what is making the section different in the first place. If its variable data then I'd try the border around the text area first - it is the easier option of the two.
The grouping rules were specifically designed to support dynamic rectangles when you have overflow/repeating data versus what could be contained in a text area. There is some additional detail that would be needed to determine the optimal way of implementing this need.

Duplicate form fields across multi-page forms
Hello!
I have some multi-page forms which include a few identically laid out pages; pages which take a long time to manually set up (nearly 100 fields per page, of varying sizes and positions)...
I tried to duplicate the fields from one page to the others, which worked; but they are identical fields, meaning text input into one will likewise be seen in the other pages. I need the other pages to be unique, even though they look identical (field-wise they look identical, the background images for my form distinguish the actual contents of each field).
Copy/Paste is the same as duplicate.
I can just do that and then manually rename a few hundred fields; but at that point I am not much better off than manually placing the fields. Some, but not much.
Is there any way to do this?I would look at using the template object within for this task.

Multi Page Forms in Adobe Muse
Hi,
Im trying to create a multi page form in Muse. Now I understand about just changing the landing page after form has been sent (as below) HOWEVER how can you delete the email field?...I want to do this as if I have a multi page form, each time I put a form on a page im going to have an email field which I dont want - I only want this on the first page.
Thanks
Paul
You can achieve this by changing the landing page in "After Sending " dropdown.
http://screencasts.worldsecuresystems.com/Sanju/2013-11-19_1851.png
For example insert forms in pages , then change the landing page through "After sending" setting to another page , so that user from front end submits the form and then lands to another page which has the next step of the form. This way multi-step form can be created.
But each form will notify you separately on submissions.
If you are using Business Catalyst to publish then you can perform the same through BC by changing the action url of the form.
Thanks,

that means no one is even working on this, and no one wants to talk
about a negative that doesn't have a fix around the corner or even
on the horizon. (If you don't have anything good to say, don't say
anything at all). Its really a shame, since printing is so vital to
the desktop and AIR is supposed to be the bridge between the
desktop and web.
There are a couple bug reports on this issue that you might
vote for if interested:
https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-13895
https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/ASC-3300
Of course the status of the bugs is "deferred" and the
priority is "none," which only reinforces my belief that Adobe
doesn't intend to address this any time soon.
If this is true, then its really bad
I already had selected AIR for my University Project, and If
adobe doesnt add printing support within 6 months, then im going to
have a hard time
Is there any article which talks about those semi printing
ways like Save to HTML or simialr? -
Hi,
used the Insert Record From Wizard from Developper toolbox and it's working like a charm! However, my form is too long and I was wondering how I could make that form a multi page form.
Is it possible to split that form in 3 parts, and by clicking to the NEXT PAGE button, have the form validation showed for the 1st part before going to the second part?
Sorry for my english, I speak french,
with thanks,

MontrealI'm also trying to figure this out for a 5 page form (it's an application form). The only difference is that the client wants to wait until the end to capture the information to the database to avoid incomplete entries.
I found some code (on a forum somewhere) that worked OK for the first 4 pages - it's in PHP. I then use ADDT for the final database entry to create the record. When you click to go to the next page (put the next page in as the form action) PHP writes all the previous page's data as a hidden input fields. Each field is named the same as the MySQL database columns.
// lists previous form values as hidden input tags
foreach($_POST as $key=>$value) {
if ($key!="submit") {
$value=htmlentities(stripslashes(strip_tags($value)));
echo "\t
\n";
So I just include this little snippet just below the form tag on each page that I want to pass the form data to. -

Can I use Spry Tabbed Panels to create a multi page form?
I'm trying to setup a multi page form and have been unsuccessful using PHP Sessions.
Would it be possible to use the Spry Tabbed Panels in DW CS3 and divide the different sections of the form in the panels? My thought is to have the Form Element around the main Tab Div and the submit button at the end of the form. Would this work?
If so, is there a way to have a "Next" button that will activate the next Tab so that the user can easily tab through each form field and easily go to the next tab to help with usability?Beth, thank you! I was able to get the tabs to advance using your suggested
on the right: "Next Panel"
<a href="#" onclick="TabbedPanels1.showPanel(2); return false;">Next Panel</a>
In order to make it more graphical, I added a Next Button as suggested in the "Open Tabs Programatically" info at http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/articles/tabbed_panel/index.html
<button onclick="TabbedPanels1.showPanel(0)" >open first panel</button>
<button onclick="TabbedPanels1.showPanel('tabID')">open panel</button>
<script type="text/javascript">
var TabbedPanels1 = new Spry.Widget.TabbedPanels("TabbedPanels1");
</script>
When I add the above code, when I clicked on the Next Button, it would submit the form. After looking at the Text Code, I noticed the Button Code did not have the ;return false; in the code so once I added that, the buttons now work as I want them to.
Take a look at http://www.soleproductions.com/oakley/tabform.php
Now that I have the basic setup, I can begin to setup the actual Online Application.
Thanks again for everyone's help. I guess I was looking for the WISIWIG way to do it since I'm not very good at hand coding. -
I am interested in creating a form based on a table that is displayed as several pages. I have a table with many values (mostly because of a need for check boxes) and would like to have form with three pages and a submit/next button between each page. Has anyone created a form like this? Suggestions as to how this should be approached?

Have you considered using a tab or an accordion widget and
keep all sections
under one single page? It would make your life easier.
See for example:

Hello Forum,
I'm a brand new user to ES Designer and am trying to complete my first form. I've got to grips with the drop downs/cells/buttons etc. However how do I make a form span three pages? I need more space than just one page, but when I publish or save the document it only shows the first page.
thanks in advanceHi,
thanks yes I have seen that, however when printing the document, to screen (preview) or to file etc Im still only getting the first page. I've spent hours trying to work out why to no avail. It makes me wonder if it is possible to have multi-page documents in the LiveCycle product?
thanks -
Multi-page form from single PDF form
I need to create a 50 page form with calculated fields. Each page is basically the same except for a couple calculations. Is there a way to make this from a single form? I have one page complete and would like to copy it and the calculations so that I don't have to redo all the calculations.

Buttons do not respond on every page of a multi-page form
Hello and thank you for your assistance with this rather vexing problem. I am creating a form with multiple pages in Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.0 and on each of those pages are various buttons, and each button opens up a different subform (click event makes subform visible). The problem I am encountering is when I "Preview PDF" the form, or open the form in Acrobat the buttons will only work on the page I click on first. For example, if I click on a button on page one (untitled subform)(page1), all the buttons on page one work fine, but the buttons on pages 2, 3 and 4 will not work. If I close the form and reopen it and start by clicking the buttons on page 3 (untitled subform)(page 3) all of the buttons on page 3 work fine, but pages 1, 2 and 4 will not work. No matter what page I start with to test the buttons, only the buttons on that page will work. I have tried using check boxes instead of buttons and the same thing happens.
I cannot upload the actual form I am working on because it contains proprietary information, however I have created a quick sample form that exhibits the same problem as an example. If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated. Please let me know if my explanation does not make sense or if I can provide further information. Thanks again for your help. :-)It is hard to explain but following change made trick.

How to save a specified page range in a multi page form
Hi,
I'm working on a multipage PDF document consisting of several electronic forms. At the end of each form there is a SUBMIT button to send the form via email. Is there a javascript to specify the page range that gets submitted, so that only the one form that is filled out gets submitted, rather than the enitre PDF?
Many Thanks!I don't think that what he had in mind:
here is what I think he wants though I don't know if possible in Acrobat. (Maybe indesign but never used indesign).
he has 3 forms that span over a 10 page PDF. (this is all suposition)
Say they are not necessarily related. Or do not have to all be filled out even if related.
say first form is 3 pages long and has a Submit buttonon 3. The next starts a page 4 and goes to end of page 7 where there is a submit button. Finally the 3rd form starts at 8 and finishes at 10 where there is a submit Button. Posibiliy there is a Submit All button on 10 also.
Submit button 1 would only submit 1-3
Submit button 2 would only submit 4-7
Submit button 3 would only submit 8-10
Submit all would submit 1-10
I don't if an extract and send would work. -
Sending a one-page form in a multi-page document
Hello - I am trying to create a multi-page pdf document in Acrobat X, with a form at the end of it. I need the form to be able to be submitted straight to email without the entire document being sent along with the form. I know how to create a submit button, but every time I test it out, it's sending the entire document, when all I want to send is the form only. Any help on this would be much appreacited!
This is only possible if the form is submitted only from Acrobat (ie not
from Reader).
You basically need to create a script that extracts the form page, submits
it, and then closes it without saving. -
How can I fixing content to a specific page?
I am making a template in numbers that has a series of pages that each contain spreadsheets. The document will be a template to use regularly. However the content may change each time i use it. On each page there are two small spreadsheets and a company logo at the top of the page. The problem i have is when i increase the number of lines in a spreadsheet on page 1 all the content on page 2 is moved down. This means i then have to then select all the content on page two and move it back into the right place i.e the logo back into the top right corner etc.
So what i need is a way to fix items to a page and If the size of the spreadsheet increase beyond the page it creates a new page and moves all the text below onto a totally seperate page rather than just moving down a little bit. Almost like a page break in Word does.
Is there a way to do this. I can email the template to you if it helps?A table from sheet 2 may perfectly grab datas from a table of sheet 1 and vice versa.
In the table of sheet 1
cell B2 contains "Yvan KOENIG" (without the quotes)
cell B5 contains the formula
=Sheet 2 :: Table 1 :: B2*Sheet 2 :: Table 1 :: C2
In the table of sheet 2
cell B2 contains 125
cell C2 contains 4
cell D8 contains the formula:
=Sheet 1 :: Table 1 :: B2
You may look at the PDF User Guide, at least page 89 in the English version.

How to copy and paste a multi-page table of contents?
Hi everyone.
I have a large document with a Table Of Contents extending over two pages. I'd like to copy the entire TOC then paste it into a new Pages document.
I have been able to copy the TOC however when I try to paste it into a new blank Word Processing pages document the following Error message appears: "The table of contents is empty because none of the paragraph styles selected in the Document Inspector are used in the document."
I can paste it into a blank Page Layout pages document however it pastes it into a text box with only one page of the TOC in it. Even if the new Page Layout document has two pages and I extend the text box over the two pages only one page of the TOC is copied into the new Page Layout document. At the moment the only work-around I can do is to take a screen shot of each individual page of the TOC and paste them individually into a new pages document. I have tried exporting the entire original document to a plain text file however all the formating is lost (obviously). I have also tried exporting the entire original document to a Word document (.doc) however it won't let me copy the multi-page TOC and paste it into a new Word document.
Is there any way to successfully copy a multi-page table of contents to a new Pages document?VQM wrote:
Thanks Peter.

You can try exporting the pages the TOC is on as rtf, text or pdf and transferring that, but I would question the value of a TOC for one document being in an entirely different document, which doesn't have what the TOC is pointing to.
Have you tried copying the T.O.C. Section from the document Thumbnails and pasting into the document Thumbnails of the 2nd document?

How does one export individual pages from a Pages document?
I've also tried to copy the TOC section from the document thumbnail however I can't figure out how to select multiple pages in the document thumbnails. It only allows me to select one at a time. Furthermore, when I do select a single page from the thumbnail section and attempt to drag and drop it into the the thumbnail section of the second document it picks up the whole document and wont allow me to move it from the thumbnail section of the original document.
Shift click to select multiple pages, and I did say Copy and Paste, not drag and drop.
