I've been working on making our PDFs accessible, but it looks like the LiveCycle-generated forms are causing some issues. While I can set the Form Locale in LiveCycle ES (8.2.1), generating a PDF from this and viewing it in Acrobat Pro 9 leaves the Reading Language field greyed out. I'm new to LiveCycle, so it might be something simple (but I've tried Googling everything).

I've tried saving it as both a Static PDF and Dynamic XML PDF form without luck. The Generate Accessibility Information Save Option is checked. I am doing a Save As rather than in-app generation (I understand this can be the cause of some issues).

Help!?

I visited the following web site in order to find a technology partner for Adobe LifeCycle PDF.

https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/partnerportal/index.cfm?event=partnerfin der&showtab=solution&loc=en_us#

However, under the drop-down list for country, I was not able to find Singapore. Please confirm that there are no technology partners for Adobe LifeCycle PDF in Singapore.

Thanks.

Hi all,

                  we have a requirement like, a submission form consist one submit button, when end user clicks the submit button it need to send the data to webservice without pass through the livecycle process. Because my management they were not able to afford the money for that livecycle process. So is there any possiblities without using live cycle server . If it is possible. can anyone tell me the workflow of that. how it will stored the values on our development server(IIS Server) without installing livecycle process on development server. Please let me know is it possible.

Hi!

This is the situation.

I have an old aplication and im needed to print from it (over 80000 files).
This app always print with the same name (ex RP001) so, i cant use a standard PDF printer, because it keep asking  to overwrite.

I need to know if LiveCycle PDF Generator can help me with this requirement (automatic change files names or something)

PS: Sorry for my english.

Thanks.

Guido.

Thanks for your help.

Hello,

We want to convert Html to pdf. We are using Adobe LiveCycle service (version 10) and GeneratePdfServiceClient from file adobe-generatepdf-client.jar . There are two possible ways to convert html to pdf:

1. Html file(with included CSS-content) can be send to the function “createPdf2”.
2. Packed html content in zip file can be send to the function “htmlFileToPDF”.

We are using both and we get different results (better in case 1).

To make reports more readable we need to solve two problems. Here are my questions:

• Is it possible to introduce page number in converted Pdf document? (In CSS "content: "Page " counter(page))
• Is it possible to insert page break after/before some Html block? (unfortunately CSS commands “page-break-before”/ “page-break-after” are not supported by LiveCycle )

Is there any way to make Livecycle to support CSS 2.1?

Regards

Hi,

I have a requirement to prepopulate the PDF with data from database (ex: Invoice Number, Amunt and 'Yes/No'). This then needs to be sent to users to mark the invoices that they have paid (by marking those invoices as Yes).

My question is, is it possible to pre-pupulate the PDF with invoice data that I have before sending to my supplier? also can I dynamically generate one PDF per supplier. Again the list of supplier comes from my database.

Please advise if 'LiveCycle' is the right product to satisfy the above said requirement.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards,

Murali

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?

Hello,

I have a project that requires a PDF creation tool on the server side (SQL).

The reports are configured using crystal reports and the tool would run the reports then spool create the PDF’s to a set target path.

We would like to purchase LiveCycle for the PDF Generator feature, but we want to know if it will meet our technical requirements.

We would like to convert a PDF, an HTML, a DOCX, and some custom text into 1 single PDF/A. Basically: joining 3 different files types and some text into 1 very long PDF/A file. Can we do this type of join?

Also, we would like to install LiveCycle on a central server and then call a web service or use an API where we can input the 3 different files and the text and as output we would get 1 PDF/A back. Obviously there might be intermediary steps, but in essence we need to be able to do this conversion from our custom code by calling some LiveCycle API.

Thanks!

Hi all,

When I try with PDFG Network Printer Installation, I meet with the following error messages:

I have already tried with the workaround provided by Adobe guy here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3063730#3063730

However it still does not work:

I am using ES4, my OS system is win7, 64 bit

Any here will be really appreciated!

Best regards,

Hi,

We are looking to convert Word to PDF but our Word files are in the 2003 format. This link says that only Office 2007 and 2010 are supported for conversions: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/livecycle/11.0/Services/WS92d06802c76abadb 76c48dfe12dbeb3e281-7fe7.2.html

Is there any hope for us? Is there a work-around? Is 2003 supported but not listed?

Thanks!

I am using 4 user accounts for multi-thread converting Word documents to PDF in PDF Generator ES3, and I have to update the password of those user accounts. Does PDF Generator ES3 save the password somewhere on the Windows 2008 server? Can I programmatically change the password of those accounts other than updating them manually from LiveCycle Admin console?

Thanks,

Will

I have designed a simple process to create PDFs from XML files. The problem is the PDF creation gets slower and slower over time.

The process is designed like this:

1) loop on a source XML directory (it contains 3000 XMLs),

2) read (using Read Document activity) the n-th XML file,

3) run a subprocess that creates a PDF (using generatePDFOutput activity) and save it to the filesystem,

4) and so on for every XML inside the source directory.

The main process inputs are:

1) source XML directory path (e.g. C:\my_xmls)

2) destination PDF directory path (e.g. C:\my_pdfs).

At the end of the process I get these results:

1) first 1000 PDFs created in about 8-10 minutes

2) second 1000 PDFs created in about 12-15 minutes

3) last 1000 PDFs created in about 20-25 minutes

I cannot use Watched Folders for several reasons but above all:

1) every 500 PDFs the process sends an email,

2) the source XML directory path may change over time.

Why do the process gets slower and slower?

I use LiveCycle ES 3.

I re-ran configuration manager in ES4 SP1 Turnkey to uninstall the PDF Generator module and now I am receiving the following errors in the server.log:

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.

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.

Mike
