Re: Creating Editable PDF from Form Created in LiveCycle - Adobe LiveCycle 01-04-2013
Yes, you can update forms from designer with data from any number of libraries, from iText to the Adobe PDF Java Toolkit to any variety of .NET products. The key is that there are different APIs for the XFA form (you update the XML data stream in the XFA area) and acroforms (where you update individual fields or update through FDF/XFDF import).Also, keep in mind that a reader-extended form or a signed form should be changed in incremental update mode or you'll lose the rights and the signature.

Re: Call web service by pressing a button in PDF - Adobe LiveCycle 28-03-2013
Since this thread is pretty long at this point, and I've blogged on this topic in the past, let me restate the problem and then give the solution(s) and why you're seeing the failures that you are.Problem statement:You want to distribute a form to users and have them send the results back to the server by calling a web service, rather than the typ[ical HTTP post or mailto:You don't state, and therefore I assume are not concerned about, people saving the form locally. The solution:Use of webservi...

Re: How do i purchase access to LiveCycle Barcoded Forms? - Adobe LiveCycle 18-03-2013
I just started a set of blog posts that make the need for Reader Extensions and ways to acquire it more clear. Check my blog at Datalogics titled "Tried to put a dynamic PDF417, QR or Data Matrix Barcode on a PDF form? Still have your hair?" I hope that these posts answer your questions about Reader Extensions and Barcoded Forms.

Re: PDF417 or QR code forms - Adobe LiveCycle 18-03-2013
Weezy, Getting dynamic 2D barcoded forms can be tricky... you need to use an Adobe Reader on Mac or Windows and then have the file Reader-extended. As I've seen a number of posts on this, I put together a blog post (actually a series on barcoded forms) that can be found at Datalogics. Take a look and I hope that it will answer your questions in more depth. If not, just leave a comment on the blog and I'll address it. Sorry it took so long to answer your question; I had to finish off a document t...

Re: Alternate for reader extension - Adobe LiveCycle 01-12-2012
If you want to have the form dynamically connect to the database or make web service calls, you either need to have the form reader-extended or use the full Acrobat.An alternative that you could use (this is a very narrow use case) would be to have your server put the data into a form data packet that referenced the form and dynamically serve that up, letting reader do the merge. We can chat more on this on the opff-hand chance that this could fill your need.

Re: How do i purchase access to LiveCycle Barcoded Forms? - Adobe LiveCycle 28-10-2012
Yes, you do need Reader Extensions to enable this functionality in Reader. This fnctionality is now available from Datalogics, as they have made Reader Extensions available with a lighter server footprint. You can see more on the Adobe PDF Java Tooklit with Reader Extensions page on Datalogics website.I hope that they can be an easier path to your success.

Re: Paper forms barcode greying out - Adobe LiveCycle 28-10-2012
Jag_138's reply is correct. You need the barcode form right, #9, as explained in my blog at Datalogics. Note that Datalogics is now reselling and packaging LiveCycle Reader Extensions in simpler ways that can be embedded in processes or products without the impact of the full J2EE server installation of LiveCycle. You can read more on the Datalogics PDF Java Toolkit page.

Re: Can use adobe livecycle reader extensions es to compile adobe livecycle designer ES3 file? - Adobe LiveCycle 28-08-2012
There were problems like this that were caused by a flashplayer security patch. See https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/livecycle/ZRj27vcLXOIMy memory is a bit hazy on this, as it was three years ago. There was a LiveCycle blog on this November 11, 2008http://blogs.adobe.com/livecycle/2008/11/livecycle_and_flash_player_10.htmlFlash Player 10 broke the Reader Extensions sample application included with LiveCycle ES 8.0.1, and 8.2.1. When you use it, it will essentially hang. The w...

Re: Calling Reader Extensions from a Java application - Adobe LiveCycle 02-08-2012
Reader Extensions can apply rights to any conforming PDF document, not just ones created by Adobe. That being said, the bulk of the testing is done with Adobe-generated files, so there can be problems at times if the PDF has errors that Reader overlooks (I'd call that a bug). So you can diagnose this a bit by opening in Acrobat and saving the file and then reader extending. [Note that I'm suggesting diagnostic technique rather than part of a process.]To run this, you'd create a web-service endpo...

Re: XML data empty after reader extending form - Adobe LiveCycle 19-12-2011
I've never heard of anything like this before. I'd suggest that you go down two paths.Self-diagnosis: Try a few things with the form. Your email doesn't make clear whether you're using Acrobat with the reader-extended form or you've moved over to Reader. I'd try it both ways. Also, when you reader-extend, just give it every right, like import/export form data.When you give up: And then, if all this fails, I'd contact support, pointing them to this thread.Also, anyone reading this should note tha...
