Re: form printing, - Adobe LiveCycle 26-08-2009
Geez Naill-you have been so very helpful. Thank you so much!This solution would probably work beautifully. However- I cannot see how you CREATED (and how I would created/edit) the hidden form in livecycle. I'll keep working on it. Thanks again.Nancy.

Re: form printing, - Adobe LiveCycle 26-08-2009
sorry.. completely lost on the second solution. Do I need more than one page, or are you saying that I should have duplicate forms and subforms on one page? on the first.. would the one pt hide all of the borders for the form, or would I need a script for each field?

Re: form printing, - Adobe LiveCycle 26-08-2009
Actually, this is beautiful! This willl work perfectly with a bit of instructions for the user, and for them just to put the green card into the computer. Thank you very much for all of your help!Just a quick, (possibly a different thread) question as well.. I can get blank green cards to most users to use for printing, but some people will have green cards which have been given to them. These cards will have printed feilds that will be asking users to fill them out by hand. *if* using these pri...

no problem on the response time- thank you very much for what you are doing! I've also notioced from a few other posts that this has come up a few past times and you have been involved with those solutions as well.I would love the script if you had it. I use acrobat anyway to enable rights useages, so I need to open the form up there as well.I did notice in the source this code:is there anything that can be adjusted there?

Re: form printing, - Adobe LiveCycle 25-08-2009
I think I also just figured this out. thanks very much. One question (forgive if this is basic). I get this from Acrobat help:A PDF can contain a set of print presets, a group of document-specific values that is used to set basic print options. By creating a print preset for a document, you can avoid manually setting certain options in the Print dialog box each time you print the document. It’s best to define print settings for a PDF at the time that you create it, but print presets provide a me...

Re: form printing, - Adobe LiveCycle 25-08-2009
so basically, it seems (logically so) that there is no real way to tell the printer how to print. I need to set up these instructions for the user BEFORE they print. If my form is created correctly, and if the user manipulates the settings on their end (through the print dialogue box) it will then correctly print the right size on the 4 x 6 card...

Re: form printing, - Adobe LiveCycle 25-08-2009
Thanks Niall-I tried swqitching the parameter but still no luck. And so far as making a new printer- it's notjust for me. I have database of information ofdiffrent people, that when they log in, they might be printing from any number oflocations. So, what I need is to force a standard print size for everyone- not just fr me.for instance- people will be receiving a green index card that they are supposed to hand fill in. I would like then to be able to set that green card into their printer and p...

Re: form printing, - Adobe LiveCycle 25-08-2009
Thank you for your help. I've got the master page and the 2nd page set-up and I have set in the print button. My script looks like this:xfa.host.print(1, "0", (xfa.host.numPages -1).toString(), 0, 1, 0, 0, 0);(the other stuff was there and I just changed the fifth number to a 1)It comes up looking like a 4 x 6 card, but when it prints, it still scales to an 8.5 x 11 (attached)did I miss something?Thanks again for your help!Nancy.

form printing, - Adobe LiveCycle 24-08-2009
so I have a weird question.... I have been working on developing a form in LiveCycle Designer. The problem is, that when it is printed, it has to be on a double-sided, 4 x 6, green index card. I have played around with trying to force print sizes, but it always seems to revert back to 8 x 11.5 when printing.I am now wondering about also using visible only on screen text fields, and trying to exactly duplicate the card so that when it is printed, the info would show up, but not the text feilds (w...
