Env. AEM Form 6.5 SP-12 On Prem, Document Manager version, AEM forms designer

Hi team,

How large we can design xdp with all custom table structures?

I have designed an XDP which is the size of over 10MB (400+ custom small, large tables using cell level sub-forms and good amount of java script written to handle tables.)

The problem we are facing when I tried to compensate any changes (adding a cell (or) cell level data (or) any kind of data manipulations) it is crashing frequently.

How can I resolve this authoring issue in designer.

Using that xdp and output service by supplying xml want to generate the flat pdf.

Please help me with your suggestions to rectify this.

 

 

thanks.

10 mb is huge size for xdp, even over 10mb LCA file create issue while deployment.

Is it only the number of tables contributing to size or you are also using images in xdp.

I have designed only tables in xdp.(over 400+ tables)

No images are part of it.

Need to check the form, see if you can convert some tables to subforms with fields like table structure, if that reduce size.

We have had multiple reports of such issues, and most of the time, customers were able to mitigate this issue by redesigning the form.

Quick question- are you seeing this issue when the form is rendered with Acrobat?

You can also check the FormDesigner.exe.dmp dump under %temp% (e.gC:\Users\xxxxx\AppData\Local\Temp) directory for more insights.
