Error message in form Bad value: ‘designer_... only in Pro

Hi,

I get the following error message in my form.

 

Bad value: ‘designer_defaultHyphenation.para.hypenation’ of the ‘use’ attribute of ‘hyphenation’ element”. Default will be used instead.

 

The problem only occurs in Acrobat Pro not Reader. It seems as though Pro remembers things previously typed into the form field and then generates the error.

Perhaps there is a way to disable this feature? or?

 

Form created in Livecycle Designer ES2 V 9.0 Problem occurs in Acrobat X

Any help would be much appreciated.

 

Thanks,

I have a button that I want to make a Windows error sound when certain conditions are met. I've tried variations of xfa.host.beep() (e.g. xfa.host.beep("1"), xfa.host.beep("2")), but they never generate any sound. I tried both Acrobat and Reader (11.0.09) static and dynamic forms.

Determine if end date is after start date

I have 2 date fields on a form.  When I click the submit button I am trying to make sure the end date is after the start date.

 

Here is the code I am using:

     var sDate = Date.parse(BackgroundInformation.Background.CheckingDateStart.rawValue);

      var eDate = Date.parse(BackgroundInformation.Background.CheckingDateEnd.rawValue);

      xfa.host.messageBox("Start Date:" + BackgroundInformation.Background.CheckingDateStart.rawValue);

      xfa.host.messageBox("eDate:"+eDate+" sDate:"+sDate);

      if(sDate > eDate)

{
   valid = false;
   fieldName +="Start Date is greater than End Date";
}

 

The message box shows the start date as 2014-10-30 but sDate is Nan.

 

I have tried:

     var eDate = new Date(BackgroundInformation.Background.CheckingDateEnd.rawValue);

      var sDate = new Date(BackgroundInformation.Background.CheckingDateStart.rawValue);

 

and when I display sDate is says "Invalid Date"

 

Any ideas?

Converting forms from PureEdge to Adobe XFA/PDF.

We are trying to convert a series of eforms from PureEdge (xfdl) to Adobe XFA/PDF eforms.

Does anyone know if there are any tools, utilities and/or plugins that could be useful to me?

My searches have come up empty so I think that I may have to design each form from scratch. Has anyone else worked on a similar conversion?

bindItems and SOM

I am trying to bind a drop down list (choiceList) to a list of records in my data set. My original XML looked like this:

 

<bindItems ref="$record.parent.People.Person[*].Identifier.Name" labelRef="$" valueRef="$"/>

 

But it returned no values. I played around and with alternative ways of getting my data, and settled on this:

 

<bindItems ref="$data.root.People.Person[*].Identifier.Name" labelRef="$" valueRef="$"/>

 

But what is weird is that within a scripting context:

 

xfa.record.parent.resolveNodes("Ballot[*].BallotIdentifier.BallotName")

 

Works just fine. Do SOM expressions not support the parent property in a bind context?

Adobe changes my numeric field to include commas when validation fails

Adobe changes my numeric field to include commas when validation fails. My numeric validation setting is num{zzzzzzz9.99}. I want my numeric field to display as 99999999.00, no commas and only to have 2 decimals places. I added this validation to the Display, Edit, Validation and Data tabs under the validation pattern dialog box.

 

When validation fails, adobe changes the display of the field to include commas and drops the decimal places:

 

999,999,999

 

How can I prevent this from happening? Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

 

I've also added a change event to the field as well:

 

\\only allows numbers and period.

 

if (xfa.event.newText.match(/[^0-9.]/))

 

{

 

xfa.event.change = "";

 

}

 

\\only allows 11 characters to be entered.

 

var maxLength = 11;

 

if(xfa.event.newText.length >maxLength)xfa.event.change = "";

I've created a form in livecycle and I want the security to be set up as such:

 

1) A password is required to edit the form in LiveCycle AND

2) People can print the pdf to "Adobe PDF"

 

I've been able to create livecycle password access, but when I put a password on the LiveCycle Access (currently: Printing Allowed: High resolution, Changes Allowed: Filling in form fields and signing existing signature fields), I get this error when I try to print it to PDF:

 

%%[ ProductName: Distiller ]%%

This PostScript file was created from an encrypted PDF file.

Redistilling encrypted PDF is not permitted.

%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%

%%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%

How can I edit my form so I can do both.

browser compatibility issue

Hi dears,

I'm trying to integrate a very simple live form made with DESIGNER ES3,in my joomla 3.2 site.

The problem is the form is well showed only by internet explorer.

With Firefox and chrome i get the following error message:

 

*      Please wait...

       If this message is not eventually replaced by the proper contents of the document, your PDF

     viewer may not be able to display this type of document.

       You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader for Windows®, Mac, or Linux® by

     visiting  http://www.adobe.com/go/reader_download.

  *

Of course i've tried to update the reader plugin in every browser,sent to other people to check whit 'em.

But nothing...same result

I got the whole cs6 installed,adobe acrobat XI,adobe reader XI,and livecycle designer ES3 and all the browsers i used for the test are up to date

I haven't found on the net other user that have the same compatibility issue,it seems weird.

 

I just save the form as a dinamyc pdf and then link it whit a classic anchor in a joomla's article.

 

There's something i can do,to improve the compatibility of this kind of document?

Am I doing something wrong?

 

I've been searching for two days in forums,tutorials etc and I didn't find anything... please help me

Thanks a lot

I am currently evaluating the ES4 product for accessibility features.  I require the Quick Fix 1100.002 so that I can verify the accessibility in Acrobat Professional.  (The language setting is always failing).

 

I have logged in to Adobe, but NO WHERE, NO WHERE can I download this fix.  I DO NOT have a support purchase as I am only evaluating this product.  I hope someone can assist me.

Are there plans to update livecycle designer to conform with the CC Family of Tools?

I am relatively new to using adobe LiveCycle Designer. I have to say it's a pretty great piece of software.  There are some things in it that really bother me though.

For example, you can't just drag guides from the rulers. There's no smart guides. The shortcuts that work in every other program don't work for LC.

The design is 1990 ish and a myriad of other small annoyances. I was just wondering if Adobe has plans to rework LCD to conform to the CC Family Standards.

 

Don't get me wrong LiveCycle is the only program in it's class and has been a tremendous help. I just feel it's not up to adobe standards.

Also, Where's the mac version? I've been having to run ES3 in VMWare due to the fact I only wanted LC Designer and not all the other phooey that comes with it.

When users try to open my distributed forms using Adobe Reader 9 they get an alert box which states:

 

'You need to install the Traditional Chinese Language Support Package to view or fill in this form.  If you continue without installing this package the form will not work correctly'

 

Is there anything within LiveCycle Designer which can be changed to prevent this message from appearing when users try to open the form ?

 

Here is the script of my form, I have very little experience of Java Script but I cannot see any ref. to Chinese ?

 

Any Help would be greatly appreciated......

Hide pages of a (PDF-)form via tick in a checkbox

October 14, 2010, 5:10 am

Dear Community,

 

I have a question, of course .

I want to create a "interactive catalogue" respectively form with LifeCycle Designer which contains mainly checkboxes. No issue so far but I want to add some features to the checkboxes when ticking them. Most important feature should be that when a certain checkbox has been ticked one or more slides hide or disappear in the same PDF-file.

 

Illustrating this point a bit more: Let's say we have a catalogue with different kind of clothes (underwear, tops, bottoms, accessories). If a user of the PDF is just interested in tops and accessories, he can tick it in the very beginning and the pages of underwear and bottoms disappear or hide. Result would be that the user doesn't need to click through the whole catalogue but only the pages that are of his interest - tops and accessories!

 

I guess bookmarks could be an easy solution but I would prefer to do it via ticks in a checkbox at the PDFs beginning.

 

Is this possible and how can I realize that?

 

Many, many thanks for your help!!!

 

Cheers Oli

How do I write a specific IF statement in Adobe LiveCycle's FormCalc?

I am trying to use an IF / ELSEIF  formula in FormCalc to autopopulate a text field in a table, but I keep  getting a syntax error.  Could someone please help?

My table has 2 rows and 2 columns.  I named each cell (using Binding) in  Column 1 as Data1 and Data2 respectively.  Both cells in Column 1  contain a dropdown menu of numbers 1, 2, and 3.  I want to create a  FormCalc IF expression in Column 2 so that when the user selects a "1"  in the Data1 cell, the cell adjacent to it in Column 2 autopopulates to  "Yes".  Then if they select a "2", the adjacent cell becomes "No", and  if they select a "3", the adjacent cell is "Unknown".  Then, I want to  do the same thing for the Data2 cell and its adjacent cell in Column 2.

Here is the expression that I've tried using for the first row (it  doesn't work).  (The second row in Column 2 [next to Data2] has the same  formula, except Data1 is replaced with Data2.)

if (Data1 = 1) then
"Yes"
elseif (Data1 = 2) then
"No"
elseif (Data1 = 3) then
"Unknown"
endif

Can anyone spot where my syntax error is and how to fix it?  I'd really appreciate it!  Thanks!
