WF_EXTSRV: use PDF Form in Change mode in Portal:

Hai,
I'am trying to use transaction WF_EXTSRV to generate a task which can be used within the UWL from the portal. The main purpose of this task is to show an exsisting PDF form in change mode. I allready found some nice information from SDN, but not enough to make it all work. I still have still these questions:
1) How must I setup the required fields within transaction WF_EXTSRV when I want to generate for example this url:
http://abc.abc.nl:51800/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/pcui_gp~isr/IsrForm?SCENARIO=SPEG&MODE=CHANGE&NOTIF_NO=000600000003
2) How must a then setup transaction SWFVISU? Which apllication and package name.
I hope some can help me.
Greetings,
Remco

Hi,
When do you get this error ... "No scenario specified". ???
I mean did you try creating an iview for IsrForm Java WD application sending the Scenario name as parameter?
Betn us,
Why dont you try the parameter IFV='P' for IsrFormApprove Java WD application itself. Get to know more about this parameter in these threads...

Filling out PDF forms in Landscape Mode

I have used Preview to fill out PDF forms in Portrait mode and it's very nice because I can save the modified file and email it to others, or just keep it for reference. Anyway, I downloaded a PDF form and tried to fill out the text. It highlights the form fields just right, with the blue glowy rectangle and everything, and when I type in the text it appears just fine, until that field loses focus, then the text goes goofy--it shows up starting at the right hand side of the field and goes in the wrong direction. It's as if Preview still thinks that the PDF is in portrait mode even though it's in landscape mode. Do you know what I'm doing wrong or if there's a fix out there?

Pdf form in read-mode for the users and...allowing me to save my new modifications

I wanted to save a modification in my pdf form. Unfortunally, it was opened by another user in read-only mode.
When I tried to save my new modifications, my screen pops me up the classic error message: cannot not save because it is opened in read....
The form is stored in network shared drive and I am the owner. The users have the read only permission.
I open it with Acrobat Pro X and users open it with Adobe Reader XI. Both sofwares are setted with the enable protected mode and javascript disabled,
I tried to not use the preview mode in Windows explorer without succes.
Is my problem a bug or is it the normal way abobe acrobat works ?
Thank you for any replyer !

Hello Gkaiseril,
Thank you for your fast reply !
I am not at my office right now, however I am pretty sure in the Word case, I will be able to edit.
During my problem, I checked in the File manager on the server side (windows 2003 r2 sp1 x64). The reader had not write permission on the file, and I am the only owner with the full permissions.

Web Dynpro as Callable object in GP using PDF Forms

Hi All,
I somehow want to integrate a user filling out a pdf form within a Guided Procedure. So far I have created a local web dynpro DC and I want to make it a Web Dynpro Callable Object (GP Interface). The problem is, I want the user to be able to see the PDF form when filling out the form. For example, if they had a role in the portal where they can invoke the Web Dynpro application with the pdf form, then when they click submit on the pdf they invoke the guided procedure...is this possible? This is so, I can use the web dynpro to do some data validation and call some bapis to get info, then submit this all to the GP. Is this achievable? I know how to do most things, I just want to know things like when is the "execute" and "getDescription" methods called? I want my execute( com.sap.caf.eu.gp.co.api.IGPExecutionContext executionContext ) method to call a bapi also. Is that possible? How do I automate a GP process when I click submit on the pdf form?
Thanks in advanced
TM

Hi,
You can integrate a PDF control in a Web Dynpro view. Refer the following links for that:

Refering the above links you'll get a fairly good idea how to integrate Adobe forms in WDP and how to start GP process programitically. My suggestion for your requirement would be if always you need to start the process after the user submits the Adobe form, then consider having the Adobe form as the first step for the process. In that case you don't need to start the process programitically. Whenever the user starts filling up the Adobe form the GP process will start. You can refer <a href="/people/dipankar.saha3/blog/2007/03/02/how-to-present-your-gp-processes-to-the-end-user">this blog</a> on how to start a GP process as an iview link in portal.
Otherwise if based on certain conditions you need to start the process then you can either use the Java API or the web service to start the process from Web Dynpro. You should have the Adobe form embedded in Web Dynpro and on submit event you can check the conditions and start the process if required.
Thanks,
Dipankar

Print functionality using PDF form in a webdynpro application

Hello! All
Currently, we have a webdynpro application and we need to provide the print feature to print the content of the iview display on IE browser. We try the File-> print feature provide by Microsoft through IE but this doesn't work. We are looking for any other option like print to pdf form. We don't know if it is possible. Is there any tutorial, help or anything that can help us to print to pdf form. Please share any other suggestion, comment and it will be much appreciated. Thank you very much.

Hi,
The content (which is a pdf content) can be exported as a PDF from a WD Application. For this you can use File Download control whose source is in the form of bytes (which is PDF content).
Do you have the PDF content already generated?
If so it is very easy to generate PDF from WD.
If you need further help, kindly let us know.
Thanks and regards

APO DP - use of key figure change mode 'Redisaggregate'

I am using the macrobuilder in APO DP V5.
Here one can use a 'redisaggregate' change mode for a key figure.
But what is a practical example where this could be relevant and useful?
Thanks,
Bob Austin, Atos Origin

Srinivas,
Thanks for this.
I now understand the concept.
But what does the 'redisaggregate macro' look like?
Suppose I have key figure X with disaggregate key figure APODPDANT.
I have a fcst run at high level, and I recalculate APODPDANT.
What is the structure of the macro to now apply the new APODPDANT values?
Is it something like key figure Y (change mode = redisagg) = key figure X?
Thanks,
Bob.

Can I use PDF forms on an iPAD?

I have completed a multi page interactive PDF file. It is a survey and works fine off a laptop or desktop.
My client has expressed an interest in having this work on an iPAD. The idea is use the iPAD for its convenience and then send the completed form via email back to the home office.
Presently my file does not reveal the fields so I am thinking I need to do something more. I've got an iPAD but with less than a week experience. I am speculating that it is the nature of the platform and probably the only way to make this work is to have the form on a server and use safari to be the depository.
The business problem is a chronic web connection to work this way is not an assumption.
Thanks for any thoughts

You and your clients can try an iPad app under the title PDF Expert. Above all available features, I usually use this application to fill out PDF forms. PDF Expert even works with those forms that have built-in calculations. What is mostly important for me as a lawyer - sign up feature, that allows me affirm contracts, agreements, etc with the own signature right on the iPad and email back the documents to the office or clients.
More information and features you can find in the app's description: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pdf-expert-fill-forms-annotate/id393316844?mt=8

Using PDF form as a sales order form on Android device

Hi,
I'm working on a digital sales order form solution, and found Adobe Reader for Android looking to be usefull. However I'm stuck with some questions and hoping to find answers here on the forums.
I don't have a lot of experience with creating PDF's, but I do have sufficient experience with Javascript, so I managed to create form that does some calculations. Everything looks and works alright, but for it to work in the field there are some showstoppers.
The form I've created has 2 signature fields
Here are my issues. Please keep in mind that the user (sales representive) is filling in the form on an Samsung Galaxy Note.
After the form is signed, the user can still make changes to the form. Is there a way to disable this?
The signature default uses very thick lines. How can I force this to 1px default?
The last used signature is stored. How can I disable this? (Customers don't want their signature to be stored, as the sales rep could use that to sign other forms as wel..)
Adobe reader overwrite the original file upon closing. Is there a way to force a 'save as' screen?
Adobe reader allows a user to make comments and write free hand. I'd like to disable this.
(I've tried Document Restrictions, but this ruins the document by removing every form field.. )
I've read something about Adobe LiveCycle server. Could that help me achieve wat I'm looking for?
I hope someone can help me out and explain some of this

Help - Using PDF forms in Livecycle & submitting them by e-mail

Hi
I have prepared a form, which is an interactive pdf, although I was experiencing problems that this wasn't being read by any adobe reader's under version 8.
I've imported my form into Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2, which I have no experience of using and I'm having a few difficulties with.
I need to have people open the form and be able to fill fields out and then when they hit the 'submit by e-mail' button, I need it to attach the entire document including graphics. Currently when this is being hit, its attaching a document in an xml format... looking a little like the below:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <topmostSubform>
<Title />
<Surname />
<First_Names />
<Maiden_Name_if_applicable />
<Nationality />
<Current_Address />
<Post_Code />
Does anyone know how the filled in data can be saved back into the pdf as its current graphical state? My colleagues need to be able to print the form with collected data.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Using PDF Printer in XP Mode within Windows 7 64-bit

My laptop has Windows 7 64-bit on it, and Adobe Acrobat 8 installed on it and working great (moved the activation from my old XP machine). I have one application that I have to run in XP Mode. How can I install the print driver in both places without buying another license? They are running on the same machine.
I tried to connecting to the shared PDF Printer using a network printer, but Adobe Acrobat only installs the 64-bit driver, and the XP Mode needs the x86 driver installed. Is there a way to install the x86 version of the PDF Printer driver in Windows 7?
Has anyone worked through this?
Thanks,
Mike

How is Acrobat 8 not fully Windows 7 compatible? I see discussions on this Adobe Community saying how Acrobat 8 does work on Windows 7 and with 64-bit. It appears that if Acrobat 8 is updated to the latest version, then this should fix AA8-Win7 issues. And I am at the latest AA8 version, 8.3.1.
And how are Acrobat 8 and Reader XI are not compatible? I have always had Acrobat and Reader installed on the same PC, without ever having any issues. And Adobe allows the installation of one after the other. So apparently Adobe allows them both to exist together. If they are incompatible, then why would Adobe allow them to exist together?
Anyway, I did uninstall the FileOpen Plug-in and the Reader XI, then reinstalled the FileOpen Plug-in. So now Reader is not installed and only Acrobat 8 is installed. I then tried to load the PDF file, but I still get the Acrobat 8 error described above.

Using PDF Printer in XP Mode within Windows 7 64-bit (need x86 driver)

This question was asked before and there was no response. (See http://forums.adobe.com/thread/782430 )
I have practically the same question.

I tried to connecting to the shared PDF Printer using a network printer, but Adobe Acrobat only installs the 64-bit driver, and the XP Mode needs the x86 driver installed.
I found that I can go to the printer properties and it has an option to add the X86 driver but asks for the .inf file.
I believe this version of Acrobat came as part of a bundle, but not positive. Can't find a disk anywhere and also looked for a driver on my PC. No luck.
I know this is a fully licensed product. So anyone know where I can find the driver?

How To: Use ADF Form in "Insert" Mode in jDeveloper 12c

Hi all,
I'm in the process of learning jDeveloper and after going through the basics, a task that I'm trying to accomplish is to have a ADF Form load in "Insert" mode rather than the default "Update" behavior. After significant searches, the closest that I could come to was Create-adf-input-form post. But since that tutorial is based on the 11g version, I'm struggling to find an equivalent of that in 12c.
Can anyone point me in the right directly and help me in determining how I would achieve the same in 12c?
Thanks,
Nisar

Nisar,
If you want the newRow to be readily available when the page loads, you call vo.createRow() in a AM method and expose that method as a client interface. Call this method on the page load.
The below links might help to call method on page load:
Johny's Tips: ADF: How to execute the ViewObject with a ViewCriteria on the PageLoad in ADF Web Application
https://blogs.oracle.com/aramamoo/entry/an_epic_question_how_to
This link helps to know how to create VO row programatically.

Let us know if you face any issue while implementing.

In 9900, i used "press Q" to change mode to Silent, in Q10, what should I press?

Solved!
Go to Solution.

I don't there is such an option in the Q10.
The available option is that you swipe down and your will see notifications with a bell. Just tap on the bell and you will then have to choose between vibrate only or silent.
To revert back to the ring tone, just tap on the bell.

How do I change the order of the fields in my pdf form?

I am using pdf. form I made in Acrobat and distributing with Adobe FormsCentral. We use a table format for our teachers to fill out their field trip schedules and therefore use many different fields.
How can I change the order of the fields (not for tabbing, we figured that out)...so that when we receive our notification email, I can see the inforamtion in a specific order (Date, Time, School, Program, etc).
We would also like this same order to appear in the "View Responses" table. I know you can drag and drop the order in the table but we have over 100 fields and that is going to take a really long time.
Please help???

What do you mean by the "order they appear in the pdf structure"? What is the "Pdf structure"?
thank you for your help... this is really upsetting, as I thought we finally found a solution with Adobe Forms : (
We really need the fields to report back in a specific order and wouldn't have time to rearrange over 100 fields with every form that is submitted. We receive about 10-20 different forms a day (same form layout, just some of the fields will have to be prefilled depending on school/teacher reservation... so we have to name each form a different name, for each school).
Thank you again and maybe one day they will change that. Is there anyway to set it up in the web verison of Adobe FormsCentral to look similar to the table we have created?
