Hello fellows,

the LifeCycle PDF Generator supports to convert PDF files to PDF/A-1b files. Will a signature lost validity, if a signed PDF is converted to PDF/A due to the fact that the hash value changes as well?

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

I am merging multiple XDPs (using invokeDDX) to create a merged PDF output (using generatePDFOutput).

The issue that I have is when I print the generated PDF from Adobe reader, it doesn't detect the varying size of the pages. It prints all pages on the paper size of first page. Unless I manually check the "choose paper source by PDF page size" checkbox on the print window. Our users don't want to check/uncheck that check box.

Is there a way I could have the print default to this setting? So that it detects the varying page sizes and prints accordingly on respective pages.

Thanks,

Phoenix

I've done my best to find the solution to my problem before coming here to post, so forgive me if I've missed a previously posted solution.

I am a .NET coder, using iText to manipulate PDF's.  I need to create a template for a corporate invoice that will allow me to have header and footer content on a page, surrounding the invoice detail section and have the invoice detail wrap to the next page as necessary.

Criteria:  All pages have the invoice header.  All pages have the invoice footer with pagination (i.e. Page 1 of n).  The number of pages is controlled by the number fo lines in the invoice detail text field.

For example, if the text field holds 30 lines and each line item takes up a single line.  An invoice with 25 line items would only use one page.  If the invoice has 35 line items, the content in the text area needs to flow to page 2 in the invoice detail area.

I have tried every combination I can dream up in Adobe LiveCycle Designer and I cannot get a document set up that will flow from page 1 to page 2.

For me to be able to access invoice detail field in code, it appears that it needs need to be a Text Field.  I've been able to access the fields from my .NET code and fill them in without issue.

What I cannot get is a template that will allow me to put more content in the detail area than fits on page one and have it automatically create a second page and flow the content into the detail area.

Can anyone point me in the right direction, or provide a working sample PDF?

I.e.

PAGE 1:

MY COMPANY

ADDRESS

INVOICE #20

---------------------------------

Line item #1

Lilne item #1 detail

Line item #2

Line item #2 detail <from here, detail must flow to the detail section of the next page>

I am currently developing a web application in classic asp.  I need to generate a pdf form that contains data from the database, the form also requires approval or digital signatures from 2 people. 

The form has to be dynamic - so I thought about generating the xml but I have not been successful in generating the schema based on instruction contained in LifeCycle.   I am really new to LiveCycle,  so any thoughts, or any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am using Adobe ExportPDF online to convert a pdf file to an excel file and it is taking a really long time.  I was wondering how long it should take?

Dear All,

Currently, I have PDF Generator 7.2.2 installed in Windows 2003 Server. We are planning to upgrade the server to Windows 2008 Server, May I know if PDF Generator 7.2.2 is compatible with Windows 2008 Server?

Thanks a lot.

Hi All,

We are rendering Adobe live cycle pdf file inside html object tag.

I have disabled toolbar , navigation bar using navpanes=0&toolbar=0.

But when mouse right click reenable the context menu again.

So Is there any way to disable mouse righ click inside Adobe Acrobat PDF browser plugin?

Hi,

We are doing a proof of concept of PDF generator on a Linux environment (RHEL6) .This POC involves conversion of HTML into PDF.

As per the installation documentation, PDF Generator requires Adobe Acrobat XI pro.

Can we use trail version of Acrobat? If yes, Link to download acrobat XI for linux?

Thanks

As is possible to see, one pdf is ok and the other shows a message instead of the real thing. What can be happening? Anyone can help me?

Thanks

My company uses a proprietary file format for some of its data processing. The file format is not associated with a given application like a .docx file would be for MS Word and the content may or may not be printable. We are currently using LiveCycle to provide document access via PKI, but would like to extend LiveCycle to support our proprietary format as well. Is LiveCycle extensible in this way? If so, what documentation would our software development team need to learn how to do this?

J'ai une imprimante Samsung, jusqu'a présent je n'avais aucun problème pour imprimer des documents pdf.

Mais voila que depuis quelques jours quand j'ouvre de tels documents, que je clique sur l'icone d'impression, le fichier passe de pdf en prn, on me demande de l'enregistrer, et adieu mes impressions.

Que dois-je faire ?

I have a printer Samsung, until now I had no problem to print documents pdf.

But here is that since a few days when I open such documents, as I click the icon of impression(printing), the file crosses(spends) of pdf it prn, we ask me to register(record) him(it), and farewell my impressions(printings).

What do I have to make?

can i buy only pdf generator.

what is price of that

Adobe LiveCycle have created a form using adobe live cycle 4.  On the form design view  and object library, I created a zip code box.  I was asked to make sure you can ONLY enter numbers into this field.  When I define it on the object tab, validation I have it set up as pattern num{zzzzzzzzzzz9} and the filed is set up as Numeric.  I am trying to create the form to only allow numbers to be placed into the zip code text not letters.  Currently it is allowing letters and numbers to be entered.  I DO NOT WANT that I only want numbers to be entered.  How can I accomplish / define this?

Please advise,

barbara

help me ! thanks

I need to create a LiveCycle ES process that takes an input PDF and generates an ouput PDF of specified properties.

The properties of the desired output PDF are specified by passing String parameters (such as the name of FileTypeSettings, PDF Settings and Security Settings) to the LiveCycle ES process.

My process currently uses GeneratePDFService's createPDF operation to do the conversion.

But I notice that if I use FileTypeSettings="Standard", the conversion of PDF to PDF fails with an exception*.

On the otherhand, if I use FileTypeSettings="Standard OCR", then the conversion succeeds.

It looks like, LiveCycle ES wants the FileTypeSettings\Image to PDF\Use OCR option to be checked.

Why is that?

If the input file is a PDF format, why does LiveCycle ES think it is an image file? Why do I have to select "Use OCR" under Image to PDF settings?

Is this a bug in LiveCycle ES and ES2?

My input PDF has only text in it. OCR (Optical Character Recognition) is not necessary as there are no images in my input PDF files.

I am easily able to search and highlight text in my input PDF from Acrobat or Reader. So it puzzles me why LiveCycle ES thinks the input is an image!

Some of the business cases for PDF to PDF conversion are:

+ User wants a large number of legacy PDF files of 1.3 or 1.4 version to be converted to PDF files of version 1.6

+ User wants a large number of unsecured PDF files to be secured with open/permission password.

Thanks

* Below is the error/exception seen in the LCES SystemOut when you use a FileTypeSetting without "Use OCR":

I'm trying to install LiveCycle ES 2 with PDF Generator on a Windows 2008 server wtih SQL Server 2005.  When I run the configuration manager I get an error in the step where you add the administrator user credentials for generator.  The error I'm receiving is ALC-PDG-080-032-Error occured while saving the user account information.  Has anyone seen this issue before?  Any ideas on what the problem may be?

Hi,

I noticed that all of these services are still listed in the Components view in Workbench and showing up as Active even after the module is uninstalled.

You have to manually uninstall the services using Workbench to remove them completely and prevent the errors above.

We purchased Abode LiveCycle Premium Print ES4. It included a product called StreamServe which we planned to use to merge xml templates and data into a pdf file using a StreamServe webservice (for developers). It seems the StreamServe webservices are not equal to that task.  Can anyone offer a hint how this automated pdf generation can be achieved using LCPP?  (I suspect it can be done using Workbench but I don't know this to be a fact.)

TIA,

Bill

Hello!

We just downloaded the LiveCycle Virtual Appliance and got it running - looks like a really great piece (better multiple pieces) of great software...

We are actually looking for a way to convert PDF to PDF/A. Is this possible with LiveCycle PDF Generator running on Linux?

best regards,
