Hello,

I am developing an VISITOR Adobe Interactive Form, i have Designer 8.1 and Reader 9.0 in my Windows 7 Laptop. When i checked the menu EDIT-->form properties --> Compatability, its Adobe XML form File (XDP)

When i opened this VISITOR interactive form in a browser, right clicking and checked form PROPERTIES, then i saw the "PDF Version: 1.6 (Acrobat 7.x)"

I am trying to debug my Java script on a VISITOR interactive form, i found this link in google

http://forums.sdn.sap.com/thread.jspa?threadID=950914

But, when you see my case, i did not see the mentioned MENU-->EDIT-->PREFERENCES-->CONSOLE stuff on my development, pls. see the below screen shots and suggest me how to put the debugger settings in my case,

1_I did not see any MENU here on the LiveCycle Designers in order to set the settings of debugging my Java Script

Hi,

I can't see your images, however by default the JavaScript Console is NOT available in Adobe Reader. To use the console you would need Acrobat.

Thom Parker has an article here on the console: http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/2006/javascript_console/

Also see Thom's instructions for setting up the console in Reader: http://windjack.com/resources/rsc_freestuff.shtml

Hope that helps,

Niall
