Can you try like this..

TextField1.border.edge.presence = "visible";

Not sure if this still works on the 7.0 version..

Thanks

Vijay,

       What do you mean by Form Server? Are you rendering the form using Work Bench?

Thanks

Hi Srinivas,

We don't use workbench. We used webservices to render PDF template and XML file to the Adobe FormServer that merges both the files and returns the data-prefilled PDF.

One thing I observed in your other file was, you did not set your form as Dynamic form.If you want to change property of the fields at runtime using script, then you need to save the file as Dynamic PDF..

Goto File -> Form Properties menu.. Select Default tab and select the Render form as "Dynamic XML Form".

While saving the PDF file, choose the type as Dynamic XML form..

Try these two and let me know if you need any help.

Other option is using XDP template instead of PDF.
The AFS Server can take XDP as an input and combine the XML to render the PDF.

Hope this helps..

Thanks

Hi Srini,

As you rightly pointed out, we didn't save the PDF as dynamic form.

Thanks a lot for your valuable information. :-)
