Webservice from static adobe form

Hi,
My requirement is to call the web service when users opens the static adobe form. can this be possible and how?
Thanks in advance.
Pooja

Have you enabled Show Console on errors and warnings in Adobe reader. You can find this property under
Edit -> Preferences -> JavaScript
Once you have enabled the above mentioned checkbox, it will show you error.
We have integrated WS with Adobe forms and these forms are opened using Adobe reader.
So that is not the case. It should work with both.
You said, you created the Adobe form using LiveCycle designer and integrated the WS in it. I think it is the issue, you have to design the form using SFP and activate. Try this, it may work.
Regards,
Amit

Change the image in the statice adobe forms dynamically based on condition.

Hi Experts,
Could you please explain how to change the image dynamically in the static adobe forms based on certain condition/calculation.
Thanks in Advance.

One of the very few options you have is loading them all into the form as embedded images, and then dynamically making the visible and hidden depending on your conditions.
Dynamic loading of images (from a URL or remote location) was completely removed from Interactive Forms a while ago as it was deemed insecure. (and it is)
The second option is loading them all into your SAP system and then making a webservice which you call with a trigger to return you the binary form of the image, which you can read by creating the correct type in the Context.
Kind regards,
Frederik-Jan.

Modifying a PDF created from an Adobe Forms Central form.

I've created a PDF from an Adobe Forms Central online form (Create PDF from web page). I was surprised that all of the text fields were created for me, but was happy that I may not have to reverse engineer everything.
However the layout for the form is for a web-based submission and not really the right size for a PDF that I can attach in an email, potentially for printing. I'd like it to be printable at 8.5X11 if possible. There are also a few aspects of it that I would like to remove since it has instructions and the button for online submission. I want people to have the option of printing or filling out the form, saving it, and replying with it as an attachment.
Is it possible to modify the PDF at this point to reduce its size? Can I remove the instructions on what to do as well as the submit button, especially while saving the background coloring? It seems like there is quite a bit of wasted space with the headers/footers too. At 8.5X14, it still hangs over into page 2.
The form can be found at: https://adobeformscentral.com/?f=oEsnPs*6J8xiF7XlraAsLA
Any help would be appreciated, since I'm not the one who created the form and don't have any templates or anything that were used.

Steve, if you have access to the form in Formscentral, you can temporarily add a second page in Formscentral. Go to the place you want a page break, and click on the + button on the left top of the field where you want the break, and click on the "Page break". Now when you go to the HTML form it should show you only one page, with a next button to go to the second page. You could then copy the URL into Acrobat's "Create PDF" and get tha page. Then click on the next button in the HTML to go to the second page. You should be able to create the second page from that one too, and then combine the 2 pages in your PDF. When you're done you could remove the page break back in Formscentral.
Hope that helps

NewLine Character in the String received from Interactive Adobe Form

Hello Experts,
Following is the issue we have with interactive Adobe Form
We have a text area within the form. User enters the text in multiple lines in this text area.
We are calling a backend function module designed in SE37 that accepts and process the data from the adobe form. We are also processing the string data user enters in the text area.
When we receive the string from the form, the newline character within the string is displayed as '#' in the debugger. We tried splitting this string using cl_abap_char_utilities=>newline and cl_abap_char_utilities=>cr_lf but NO luck. Though in the debugger we see cl_abap_char_utilities=>newline as '#' in the debugger and also '#' is present within the string, for some reason when string is processed to find cl_abap_char_utilities=>newline, we can find/locate it.
Because ABAP code is not able to identify the newline character within the string received from Adobe form, we are not able to maintain the formatting of the string as it was entered in the form.
Any help to resolve this issue is appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Bhushan

Hi Bhushan,
I was going through your issue, and I feel this is something you can do with scripting. Basically you should read whole string and find the new line character and replace with a space or comma, as per your requirment.
Do like following:
In the exit event of the field select java script and write following code:
var strng = this.rawValue;
strng.replace(/\n/g, " ");
above im reaplcing new line with a space.
I think it should work I have not tested it. Pls update if you test it .

Webservice call from Interactive Adobe form

Hi,
Please provide me the possible solution for the below mentioned issue.
1. Created a webdynpro application.
2. Kept the interactive form on the VIEW of this WDA. Adobe form has 10 fields and one submit button.
3. Now created a web service with only one importing parameter of type XSTRING.
4. I have given the webservice URL in the button properties by making it's type as "Execute"
Now my question is "How can we get all the filled values on the interactive form in the RFC of Webservice when i click on the submit button?".
Note: I should not add any other importing fields in the web service except the PDF string.

Ram

Hello experts,
Please provide me the solution for the below mentioned issue.
I have attached the webservice wsdl file to the SUBMIT button on my form (execute type) and binded all my form fields to the webservice importing structure fields..

And iam uploading the new wsdl file in my existing data connection properties.
But it is giving an error saying as follows.

Consuming a Webservice & 'bapi_transaction_commit' in adobe form

Hi All,
I am working on a scenario wherein i am consuming a webservice in an offline adobe form.
This webservice is a function module exposed as webservice.
Now if i attempt to use following statement in my Function Module:
call function 'bapi_transaction_commit'.
This webservice stops returning me the response from Function Modules, Any clues on this front??
Any inputs would be of great help!!
Thanks,
Amita

Hello Amita,
SAP recommends using BAPI_Transaction_Commit and not using Commit Work in the BAPI to control transation in a "client" system.
but its up to you to decide how you want to do it.

Executing a WebService in Online Adobe Form

Hi All,
I am facing an issue while executing the webservice from an application developed inWDJava, that contains an Adobe Form. This Adobe Form is required to execute webservice, and this form has 2 input fields say First Name & last name. When i fill in the first name and last name fields in the application itself and attempt to execute the webservice, i don't get my response fields back.
But in case i download my form from that WDJava online application, and then try to execute the service, i get back the results.
*I am using Adobe Designer: 8.0
Adobe Reader: 9.0*
Any pointers to this..??
Any ideas would be helpful.
Thanks,
Amita

Call the webservice, and use the call to fill up a variable. It will then drop the return value, be it a structure or whatever into your local variable. Like this :
var response = SOAP.request ({
     cURL: url,
     oRequest: request,
     cAction: "http://adobe.com/ES/GetMaterials",
     oAuthenticate: authentication });

WebService Calls in Adobe Forms Offline Scenario

Hi,
I think this topic was discussed, but I have a very specific question.
I need to create an interactive form to be used in an offline scenario but consuming a webservice from an ABAP backend on user request.
I understand you need to create and configure the web service on ABAP side using SOAMANAGER, and you need to create a data connection using the binding WSDL in the Forms Designer.
For security reasons I would like to have a basic authentication at least. According to several blog entries this should be possible.
Now the dilemma: it seems that in SOAMANAGER you can only create a web service with basic authentication using HTTPS.
BUT: Adobe Life Cycle Designer does not support HTTPS.
The only option to not use authentication at all is not an option for me.
So, does anybody have the same problem and a solution?
Is SOAMANAGER changed that way or did I just not find the right configuration possibilities?
If it is that restrictiveL since when? It was different in NW 7.0, SP 14. I am currently working with SP 18.
Please respond if you can provide any helpful insight.
Michael

I hope you are putting the code in the click event of a a custom Regular button and not using the one that can be drag-drop from the connectionset.
Try sap-username as parameter instead of sap-user in above code statement.
var cURL = "http://....?sap-client=<client no>&sap-username=<username>&sap-password=<password>" ;

WebDynpro Popup from Interactive Adobe Form.

I have a Interactive form UI on WebDynpro view. On a click of a button inside the Adobe Form, a popup appears. This popup is a webdynpro java popup window.
While the popup is appearing or while closing the Adobe form gets refreshed each time and popup moves to first page of the form and user needs to scroll down the page to where the popup was triggered. Is there anyway I can avoid to the page get refreshed.
I am using NWDS 7.14 and Adobe Version 9.0...
- Akshay

Maybe I understand your requirement now. Since you are calling a server side event i.e. to get the data, the page where you are currently gets lost and that's how it should be.
Now as a workaround we can try setting the focus to the particular input field when the page is loaded with the selected value.
1. For this create a boolean atrribute and set it to Y when value from poupwindow is selected.
wdContext.currentContextElement.setPopValSelected("Y");
2. Drag a textfield and bind it to this context. Make the field as invisble from Object palette.
3. Now in the form:ready or layout:ready event of the top level subform write the following JavaScript:-
if(popValSelected.rawValue == "Y")
xfa.host.setFocus("TextField1");

OnSubmit function Error in passing values from WDA Adobe Form to Ztable

Friends,
I am trying to pass values from Adobe Interactive Form to ztable.
I am using WDA to display the form. I have created the form context with attributes that are bound to the form fields using the Adobe Livecycle Designer.
Once the user presses the Submit button, the data is passed to the ztable. In the onSubmit function assigned to the Submit button, I am using the "Read Context" feature of WD Code Wizard to read the values of the attributes
I am able to read and populate the ztable with values of the first 3 attributes. But am unable to read the value of 4th attribute using the "Read Context" feature of WD Code Wizard. All 4 attributes are of string type.
I am not sure if this is a buffer size problem or is there a limitation that only 3 attributes can be read per Adobe form / onSubmit function.
Please let me know what is missing.
Thanks and Regards.

Printing to multiple trays from an Adobe form

Hi,
Does anyone know if it's possible to create a button on an Adobe Form that will send a print job to multiple trays? We have several Adobe forms that need to be printed in triplicate on different coloured paper. Ideally we'd like a button on the Adobe form that will send the print job to all 3 printer trays.
Apologies if this is a basic question, hope someone can help.
Thanks.

Ok thanks, that's beyond my skill set unfortunately! I was hoping it might possible in similar way that macros are used in Word/Excel.
Thanks anyway.
