Re: Can you add some "virtual space" on a PDF ? - Adobe LiveCycle 17-06-2010
Hi,Thanks for your answer, it could be the last resort solution. But I would like to have the button visible all the time if possible (only one button for the moment, but after I will add more thing in the "virtual space") because it's much easier for the users than a collapsible panel.I hope for a better way of handling this, but thanks for this workaround

Can you add some "virtual space" on a PDF ? - Adobe LiveCycle 17-06-2010
Hello,I have a PDF Form and this form is taking the whole A4 page. No place for adding a button so I can send the form data without hiding informations.The only possibility I can think about is to increase the PDF size so I can put a button. The only way I have found is to change the page size, but it's not good because when I print the PDF everything is scaled to fit the A4.Is there a way to add "virtual space" on a PDF to put my button without changing the page size ? So when I print everythin...

Re: PDF Form - Load and Save from/to XML - Adobe LiveCycle 30-03-2010
Like I said, I'm back ^^I manage to get the HTTP request when I click the send button. I have all the fields and values in a query string (param1=value1&param2=value2&...).Now it seems Adobe Reader is waiting for a specific answer. I think you have to say him "it's ok, I have got all the data" or "oh dude, I can't read this at all" or something like this. But I didn't found the HTTP response I need to use. Do you know what Adobe Reader is waiting for ?For the HTTP send button it seems you can't ...

Re: PDF Form - Load and Save from/to XML - Adobe LiveCycle 26-03-2010
If I must add a button on the form I will do it and if I have a Form with lot of pages, I need to put a button on each page so the user don't have to look for the button. The save button in Reader is always at the same place that's why I would like to use it, the user know where to find it.But looking at your answer it seems to be impossible to do.For the loading it's ok with the XDP file. I just have to set the value in the XML and it rocks.For the saving I will test the HTTP button. I find how...

Re: PDF Form - Load and Save from/to XML - Adobe LiveCycle 26-03-2010
You're right, I will look with the certificate at another time.The option for the moment would be to call a send to HTTP button when the postSave event of the PDF document is raised. For the moment I'm testing with a classic button for exporting the data.So in my button click event I have done : xfa.host.exportData();And in the form postSave event I have done : myButton.execEvent("click");It's how you should do it ? Whatever button it is ? (classic, mail or HTTP submission)

Re: PDF Form - Load and Save from/to XML - Adobe LiveCycle 26-03-2010
The documentation say that the PDF need to be certified to be able to use exportData with a parameter. You need to sign the PDF with a certificate or something like this ? I don't want to use a send by HTTP button ^^As for the node dataDescription, I can keep it after all. It won't change unless the XSD change so it safe and easy to change this part if I need to.

Re: PDF Form - Load and Save from/to XML - Adobe LiveCycle 26-03-2010
Ooooh nice ! I have tried to change the exportData with : xfa.host.exportData("filename.xdp")But nothing happen. Without parameter I have the dialog showing up. Do you know why ?I suppose there is a JavaScript variable/constant with the PDF file name so I could do : xfa.host.exportData(pdfFileName + ".xdp")The idea is to save the xdp file in the same directory and with the same name of the PDF file.In the XDP there is a dd:dataDescription XML element. Seems it does no harm when deleted. Can you ...

Re: PDF Form - Load and Save from/to XML - Adobe LiveCycle 26-03-2010
Does this sound acceptable?I would say know but it's true that I didn't mention this point.The only user interaction should be saving the PDF without asking him anything if possible.The PDF is launched from the desktop applicationThe user fill the form, add or modify informationThe user Save the PDF and close Adobe Reader (or close Reader which ask to save the PDF)I read back the fields values (with iTextSharp for the FDF solution / from the XML data file for what I'm looking for)For saving I sh...

PDF Form - Load and Save from/to XML - Adobe LiveCycle 26-03-2010
Hello,I'm looking for a solution to fill and read fields value from a PDF form. I am working with Microsoft Framework 2.0 and C# for a desktop application.For the moment I'm using a FDF file for filling the PDF fields and iTextSharp to read back fields values once the PDF is saved. But it's not working with some PDF that are bind to a XML datasource. The idea is to drop the FDF solution and try using the XML instead.So I have a PDF Form (myPdf.pdf) with fields binded on a XML datasource (XSD sch...
