Hi everybody,
I'm trying to insert an SWF-file (Flex-Application) in a PDF-Form, which was created with LCD ES.
Thanks in advance...

Hi,
Thom Parker has a good example of deploying an AVI in an XFA form (http://www.windjack.com/DownLoads/MultimediaXFA.pdf). This is a large file so you might want to rick click the link and download. Also check http://www.windjack.com/resources/howto.html
This is the only solution I have come aross that comes anyway close to what you want.
Good luck,
Niall
Thanks for the answer.
I already found this example, but it's not exactly what I want.
The first step is to insert the Flex application in the form, the next step would be to transfer data from the application (e.g. after a button click) in a form field...
Any ideas, why Acrobat doesn't let me include the SWF file (the multimedia tool button is grayed out)?

Sorry,
That is the closest I have seen for having multimedia in a XFA form.
LiveCycle generates an XFA form, which is "wrapped" in a PDF structure. While an XFA form opens in Acrobat, it is fundamentally different from an AcroForm (Acrobat form) and a normal PDF.
When you open an XFA form in Acrobat there are a lot of (normal) PDF functionality that is not available. Inserting a Flash movie is just one of them.
There is no way around this. You will not be able to use the insert SWF command when in an XFA form.
Good luck,
N.

OK, thanks, I think I got this now...
Do you know if it is possible for AcroForm form fields to interact with an embedded Flex-App?

Hi,
I think that the app.media method allows you to script for play/pause buttons etc. I have not used it for that purpose, so you would have to look at the Acrobat SDK: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobat/
Good lick,
