and you can access the attachment with scripts. e. g. you can attach your current vendor list with Acrobat. Then you can add the vendor's address via scripting even when your data source only provides the vendor number.

That appears unnecessary to me.Conditional bindings without any scripting perfectly perform the task. You do not need to script for this kind of task.I just checked with one of my example forms:$.Legobrick.[Color<>"green"]works perfectly to bind only subforms where the underlying element "Color" doe...

I'm afraid no.Acrobat is a completly different ballpark. You have different classes and objects there and actually not really events. In case you have a ton of scripting in your XDP you can only hope for Surface tablets or else spend an awful lot of time trying to come close to the old functionality

I prefer saving the XFA-PDF in Acrobat as PostScript (.ps). Then I create in Acrobat a new Acro-PDF with the PostScript. Has always worked fine. Of course all form fields and scripting is lost. You have to add that all over again with Acrobat. The form layout will change with every change request. T...

The equals operator in JavaScript is "==" and not "=".You actually assigned "X" to lv_letter.So your line should beif ( lv_letter == "X" ) {Does it work now?

I can confirm that "Weitere Werkzeuge aktivieren (mit Ausfüllen und Speichern von Formularen)" the same menu item is as "Enable More Tools (includes form fill-in & save)".(Actually I use the German version myself and it works with my Acrobat.)But I have no explanation why that doesn't work with your...

Deborah,I almost never use Formcalc. It lacks some features - and you find sample scripts almost only for JavaScript.In my next book („XML und Scripting – SAP Interactive Forms und Adobe LiveCycle Designer", espresso Verlag) you can find this funktion (here is a sneak preview). Hope it helps:functio...

This is how you should save your PDF in Acrobat. Then your users can save their data with the PDFs.

"the XML wears out with use". LiveCycle runs down the XML and fills the data into matching fields with the correct binding. But LiveCycle never runs back upwards in the XML to start filling other objects with matching bindings.You can use global binding by name (not recommendable as unsafe - you nev...
