Hello Experts, Need some help. I am migrating from AEM Forms 6.2 (OSGI)
to AEM Forms 6.4 (OSGi). I am using Java API to invoke OutputService.For
AEM 6.2, I used the following maven dependency -
com.adobe.aemfdaemfd-client-sdk6.2.0But
if I update the version from 6.2.0 to 6.4.0 for AEM Forms 6.4, it is not
working. I tried searching for Adobe's documentation but I could not
find any information regarding maven dependency.Also - for AEM 6.2, I
used the following link to get API documentation for F...
Hello Experts, I am trying to create an XDP template where I need to
place and Image and Text next to each other. Both text and image will
come as a part of the input XML. Requirement is to wrap the text around
the image, if the height of Text is greater than Image. I tried multiple
things but I could not find a way to do this.Attached is the screenshot.
I need to be able to place the 2nd and 3rd paragraphs directly under the
image and their width be 100%. Is this even possible with AEM/Livecycl...
Hello Experts, Is there a way to create/extend new Adaptive Forms
Component? I am looking to extend the capabilities of Static Text
Component so that I can have placeholders within the static text and be
able to provide data bind reference for each placeholder. How can go
about doing this? Is there any documentation that points to how I can
extend a AF component? Thanks & Regards,Priyank P
If you are generating read-only dynamic PDFs, there are no additional
licensing requirements (apart from what you have already paid for AEM
Forms). You need additional licensing (called Reader Extensions) if your
requirement was to generate an Interactive PDF (with form fields) and
wanted ability to Save the PDF with filled data. Regards,Priyank P
Thanks Rishi for the quick response. We are using 6.2 forms (OSGi). Is
there an alternate ways to perform Unit Testing of the Adaptive forms
designed in 6.2
Hello Experts, How do we go about writing/performing Automated Unit
Tests for Adaptive Forms and Form Fragments. I tried looking up on help
site but I couldn't find any material. Any guidance will be helpful

Hello Experts, I am trying to use the LetterRenderService to generate
Letters(PDFs) on AEM Forms 6.2 OSGi. I am using the following Maven

The code compiles fine, but when I deploy the package on my
local instance, the bundles shows that it is unable to resolve the

Update:Here's how I ended up implementing the solution. I dropped the
idea of using HTTP protocol for prefilling Adaptive Form, because it did
not support authentication. I ended up creating a custom template and
prefilled the XML by setting data attribute it slingRequest.

Our business systems then take these separate schemas, populates some of
the data ond puts them in the container schema. The container schema has
a fixed top level hierachy and then allow any number of nodes
with the form specific data in the node. It is
impossible to move all of this in to one schema. In that case - all the
data bindings on all the individual XDPs have to be as per the

Is there any other way that might bring success? The message is
basically telling you that your PDF is an interactive XFA document and

I am assuming you are using the AEM Forms JEE and using Workbench to
create the applications/processes. Unfortunately, there is no out of the
box way to connect with GIT or SVN etc.We typically exported the LCA and
stored the LCA in version control systems. Regards,Priyank Pardiwala

Proof-of-Concept with two XDPs, an XML for each XDP (used for data

both XMLs. It runs, combines the XDPs, and creates one PDF from the two

fields are not populated. What did I miss? Does all your XDP follow the
same XML Schema (XSD)? The structure of XML must remain the same. My

You should be able to use Assembler to combine XDPs to get a master XDP
and then merge this master XDP with XML file using GeneratePrintedOutput
service (an Output Service) to generate PCL directly. I don't see a
reason why you would have to re-write all the binding expressions. For
printer specific settings (like duplex/simple printing or tray selection
etc), you could create an XDC file and pass it as an input to the
GeneratePrintedOutput Service.
Hello Experts, I am working on a project where we are creating dynamic
Adaptive forms. Within that Adaptive form, we have a requirement to put
Static text (disclosures, information etc). The static text can have
some placeholders where data from XML needs to be populated. For
example, it could be a information text such as - "You credit card
allows you to withdraw $10000 a month" . Here the $10000 must be
populated from prefill XML. I know in Livecycle world, we had something

You can create a client-lib for your adaptive form and create a custom
js file. Once you assign the clientLib to Adaptive Form, all the
functions that you define within it should appear in the Rule editor.
Please see my screenshots.

If, you are saving this XML in your file system, please use file://

goes for http:// protocol, if you can specify the HTTP location of the
