1. i have tried to link the submit button to all four programatic endpoints but none has worked. i tried type of submit xml, pdf, and urlencodeddata.

is it possible to to submit the pdf form without using an aditional software on server side (just live cycle)?

2. i also tried to submit via ftp:// but the transfer did not even start on client side. any ideas?

You can call the web services end point of a process from the form.

Nith recently posted an example of this on this forum

You can put any URL in the Target URL of the submit button and it will receive the submission.

I've posted the PDF to servlets many times. The PDF will be in the request object.

thank you both for the answers.

@Scott: yes i have red this so this would mean i have to use the Programatic Endpoint SOAP on the server side and on the Adobe Acrobat PDF side i have to implement some java script?

originaly i was looking for for an endpoint at adobe livecycle which would accept a simple submit from the PDF delivered by the submit button w/o much work

ok i abandoned the idea of submiting via http post.

now i tried the SOAP submit but with no result, no errors in server.log, are there any SOAP specific logs in livecycle?
