Word form to pdf form fields conversion
Does anyone have any expereince with converting form Word
form with active
x controls to pdf form fields - any help would be appreciated
Ann Steer
No. What you can do, though, is after you edit your file create a new static PDF from it, open your old PDF and then use the Replace Pages command, selecting the new PDF file as the one to insert. This will replace the underlying PDF content while keeping all the form fields in tact. You then might need to adjust them a bit, but it's much less work then re-doing the entire form.

Convert Word 2007 Form to PDF Form not creating dropdown list fields
I created a new word document with all my text fields with lines and 5 dropdown list fields with all their values. Works great in Word 2007. When I convert it to a pdf form (Acrobat Pro X) none of the dropdown list fields get created. The text fields do, but no drop downs. If I have to create them all manually in Acrobat, what's the point of doing all the work in Word?
The Word conversion to PDF and Forms Wizard do not detect and do not know how to complete a drop down box. I do not even create the form fields in Word as there is no transfer to the PDF. I also find the Wizard lacking in proper naming and grouping. It is just easier and more efficient to add the fields manually or with JavaScript tools.
The only product that can do this is apache OpenOffice when an author creates the from body and form fields in the Writer application and then exports to a PDF. -
Generate a MS Word report from PDF Form
Is there a way to generate a MS Word file output from the contents of a PDF form?
Background:
Back in the days when Acrobat Pro was packaged with LiveCycle Design for PDF form development, I created a very extensive document that walked the reader through a series of questions and then gathered the answers into a printable form.
Unfortunately, the new version of Acrobat no longer is integrated with LiveCycle and I need to make updates to the document. LiveCycle only works on Windows machines and since I am on a Mac, it seems that I am left with few options.
What would be the best possible solution is if after the reader entered all of the data in the PDF form, they could click a button and the document would generate a MS Word file with all of the variables and input fields arranged in a meaningful format.
Is there any way to accomplish this in the new Acrobat Pro?Apparently you had LiveCycle Designer in the past.
Unfortunately, the format of the form field names used by LiveCycle are different than the format used by Acrobat.
You could try exporting the Forms Central form to the PDF format and you might be able to use the form to import the data. -
Converting Word Doc to PDF Form
I am trying to convert a word document into a PDF Form.
I have tried running the 'Form Wizard' in Acrobat 9.x Pro. I have the current version, just can't remember the rev. number.
Supposidly the Form Wizard will recognize areas of the word doc as fields and insert fields automagically. I have tried the wizard several times from within Word 2007 and Acrobat Pro. no luck. Nothing is recognized.
Any ideas? I don't want to have to manually re=create the form unless I have to.
I am attaching the PDF doc and hoping someone can help with this.I know it's user to user, but I'm an optimist, and figured I'd toss in a UX suggestion while I was at it. Apologies if that aside was misplaced.
I'm pretty sure none of the "fields" I made were actual form fields according to Word, they were just things like text boxes, or, more frequently, tables (the doc I was working from had values filled in where form spaces should go, so I frequently used text -> table to keep the formatting as consistent as possible, then deleted the filled-in values).
One of the reasons I wanted to do it this way is that it can sometimes be a pain to line up the form fields in Acrobat such that the text when filled in lines up with the already-present text (or am I missing a trick?)
Also, as an update, I tried PDF-form-ifying just page 1, and got the same error, then tried PDF-form-ifying everything but page 1, and again, same error. -
Forms: Translating Word Form to PDF Form
I have created a fill-in form in Microsoft Word (protected). Does anyone know how to then make it a fill-in form in Acrobat? Years (and years) ago, Word had an icon on the toolbar that you simply clicked. Acrobat help says use the "Acrobat toolbar." Help me on that? I could probably recreate the darn thing in Acrobat, but it's much easier for me to work in Word. Thanks.
I am new to this and trying to do the same thing. For interactive forms you save the word file to pdf first. Then, using the forms tool you create the form. Acrobat searches the fields and identifies what it thinks are the interactive fields. From there you can go to a host of editing tools to modify, add or delete fields.

Hi ,
I have cretaed a form ( SAP Script) which I want send through email. So I need to convert that form to PDF format. How can I do that ?
Thanks,
ManasHi,
There are two approaches that can be followed to convert script to PDF.
First method
first generate a Spool Request for the required Sapscript
then goto transaction SP01 and copy the generated Spool Request number
now execute the SAP report RSTXPDFT4
here enter the copied Spool request number and the target directory into the parameters
execute the report
required pdf file will be generated into the target directory
i hope it will help you out

Convert FormsCentral form to PDF form
Can I export or convert an existing FormsCentral form into an adobe acrobat Pro fillable form?
We currently do not support creating a PDF form. This has been a very common request (we are the Acrobat team so it isn't a surprising one ). PDF form creation is defintely on our roadmap this year.
Thanks for the feedback,

Create HTML Form from PDF Form
Does anyone know of a quick way to create an HTML Form from an existing PDF Form?
Thanks everyone!
marsFrom ID you can export to XHTML which is indeed consumed by DW but not via Acrobat...
So, can I import a PDF form into ID?
When I meant was - InDesign can export to XHTML
Acrobat cannot
Indeed, it would be great if forms could be created as ID objects and then exported to a PDF form but not yet (all fingers and toes crossed for CS5/CS6)

Unable to collect form in PDF form
Hello,
I have created a fillable form using Live Cycle Designer. But when it comes to collecting the form data, after receiving the data in XML (as an email attachment), I am unable to open it as PDF. I have tried changing the default program to open xml files to Adobe Live Cycle Designer, but the program prompts me a window called "File Import Options". The file type by default in this window is "XForms Document". When I click ok, it gives me a "main error 47" with a long list of runtime errors.
Is there a way I can set this up when creating and saving the form?
I greatly appreciate your feedback.
Best
IILIonlineHi Paul,
Thank you for your reply. Where do I go to access the post submit event in order to add the message? What kind of button do I select?
I like idea of sending the user back to our website by using xfa.host.gotoURL("address you want to goto"). I found the script editor and added that script to the button (regular). My question is, what do I select on Show? Initialize, Enter, Exit, Calculate or Validate?
Please forgive my ignorance : ) Thank you.

Save the PDF Form with Field Name
HI Guys,
I have the Requirment in PDF Form.The PDF Form is generated with the Adobe Live Cycle Designer.After generating the PDF Form the user filled the details in the form and save the filled form.while clicking the Save button the default PDF name is displayed in the File name box.The Requirement is iam having one field in the form.The Field name value should needs to displayed in the File name box during saving.Is it possible.Once its possible please let me know.This is needs to be delivered very shortly.
Thanks & Regards,
SatheshKumar RYou can save the form with name generated from a field's value, but therefore you will have to install a folder level script first and design a custom save button in your form.
You cannot do this with the applications save or save as... buttons, and you also cannot rename a file on submit.
Here's an example form and a folder level script. (Maybe to complicated fdr newbies)

I am saving my form as a PDF. In the form I have an attachment field included. However when I try to use the attachment "Select File" I am getting an error. saying the file attachment in not supported in the formPDF. Is there a way to do this with the PDF form?
PDF forms currently do not support attachments. You would have to distribute the form as a web form to get that functionality.

Print Footer Window of PO Form at end of Last Page of PDF Forms(Adobe)
Hi,
I am trying to print PO form using PDF form which includes multiple line items. At the end of last page I am trying to print the footer window that contains Comments and Signature.
Right now my Footer Window is being printed immediately after the end of line items.
I have included the Comments text box and image inside a Sub Form.
Please let me know how to print the Footer window at the end of the page instead of printing immediately after the line items.
Thanks,
RekhaHi,
Please take the footer subform from the tables section and position it on the page where u want to print and write the script so that it will print only on last page.
