Hi Niall,I did have a look at it and I can't seem to get it right. Do
you understand my requirement for having two unequally long columns and
that I need them to be paginated to the next page?It should look like
this if both columns will paginate: Currently this is done in Jetform,
so I guess it must be possible somehow in Livecycle ES also, I just
can't get it to do what I need. I hope you have some pointers on were to
look SincerelyKim Christensen
Hi all,I have a quick question regarding columns in Livecycle Designer,
I have an scenario where I have two columns that will get filled with
data (rows of repeating elements from XML).The two columns are
independent and they are NOT equally high. The left column is shorter
than the right one.So the issue is that I need these two columns to flow
to a new page. If the left column (which is shorter) is filled up first
it should overflow to the next page and show an empty right column. Vice
versa i...
Hi all,I have a simple question,How is it possible to open the signing
dialogue (like when you click on the signature field) from another
button.I mean - I have a simple test form with one button and one
signature field and I want to open the signing dialogue when I click the
button - not the signature field.Hope you understand what I am trying to
do?CheersKim ChristensenDafolo A/SDenmark
Hi again radzmar,Thanks alotThis made it easy for me - even though I
need more than one scriptobject (I have to handle multiple languages).
But it works perfectly 🙂Once again thank you for your help - it is most
appreciatedCheers\Kim
HI again radzmar,You are right - I could have been more precise in my
description 🙂i have two script objects.In the first one ("MyTexts") I
have a lot of texts declared like this:var infotext1 = "blah blah
blah";var infotext2 = "blah blah blah blah";In my second script object
("functions"), I have a function that looks something like
this:getTexts(fieldName){ var textValue =
xfa.form.variables.MyTexts.(value of fieldName);//pseudocode as I don't
know the syntax to reach this value return textVa...
Hi all,I have a scenario where I have one script object (MyTexts1)
containing a lot of text for the form (each of the texts are stored in
variables (fx. MyTexts1.infoText1). The variables are named after the
fields (meaning that I have a field called "infoText1"). So for each
field I call a function that takes the name of the field. This function
(located in my script object called "functions") should somehow then
find the value of the variable in "MyTexts.infoText1".Now my question
is:How can I...
Hi all,A simple scenario brushup:I have an LC process that takes as
input 2 parameters:- formID- formXMLThe user starts out with an empty
interactive form and fills out some info in this form. In the end he/she
clicks submit and now I want to invoke my process to create a flattened
form from the XML just entered in the interactive form.The process
returns a flattened form with the data merged with the XDP template
referenced in formID. Simple as that.What I basically need is to do
something simi...
Hi again dohanlon,You were right, something in my script on the form was
not executed correctly - seems like the util.stringFromStream does not
work in the form if you run it in the plugin. I changed my code into
usinsg the stringforStream method in my trusted function and then it
suddenly worked.Thanks a lot for your help btw - it led me into
understanding that it was possible to use the trusted functions inside
the belly of the browser plugin also\Kim
Hi all,I have created a trusted function that works perfectly when I
open my form directly through Reader or Acrobat 🙂My trusted function
does something like import a file as an attachment from a certain place
on disk.However when I try to open it through the browser plugin (ie.
Internet Explorer) it does not work - what could I be doing wrong? And
what do I need to take into consideration to make it work through the
browser plugin?Please don't hesitate to ask if you need further
information.Th...
Hi again,The .bat file is located here: c:\file.bat on the server. When
I invoke the process through Workbench nothing happens, but when I
execute "cmd /c c:\file.bat" in "Run" on the server then the .bat file
is executed. CheersKim Christensen Dafolo A/S
Hi Nith,I tried your suggestion – however it does not work as I
expected. The process seems to execute – however nothing of what is in
the bat file is done:E.g. I have this bat file – and when I run it with
your suggestion in LC nothing happens – when I run it on the server I
get the copy of the file:I have added the following in my Execute Script
service action:Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c c:\\file.bat");The .bat
file looks like this:ECHO OFFCOPY "C:installer_debug.txt"
"C:new_installer_de...
Hi all,I have a situation where I need to execute a .bat file from LC.
Is that possible and how should I approach this?Thanks in

Hi all,I am trying to reach some external properties (name, phone etc.)
of the logged in user. All of this is stored in a txt-file on the
client, but I am unsure how to get hold of this information with
Javascript. Any help out there?Thanks in advanceSincerelyKim

Hi all,I have a scenario that puzzles me a bit.I have some forms that
are Interactive forms (stored as XDP with the property Dynamic XML
Form).I need to assemble these xdp-forms (and fill them with data) and
add it all up in one PDF. This PDf should be converted to PCL and later
shipped off to a printer. However I see a conflict in doing this by
using the Invoke DDX and generatePrintedOutput services.I can easily
create my PDF, but to make it work I have to include the tag
in my DDX. However wh...
Hi all,If I have a process that will be invoked by either REST, SOAP or
any of the other endpoints - how can I obtain the info of which endpoint
that really called the process and store this in a variable in the
process?Alternatively I would like to obtain all of the endpoint values
of the process - is this possible?SincerelyKim ChristensenDafolo

Hi again,Found the answer myself 🙂To do this, you must setup your
Weblogic server to redirect stdout to the server log. This is done in
the adminserver console under Server - Logging - Advanced - "Redirect
stdout to server log".Hope this helps somebody out thereHave a good one
all of you SincerelyKim ChristensenDafolo A/SDenmark
Hi there,I have a process that takes in an XML file and some XSLT in
another document variable and some process_data values from the main
process.Inside this process I would like to invoke the XSLT on the XML
and use the process_data values inside the XSLT. This works fantastic if
I use the "template" setting for the XSLT and add some XSLT code like:
Hi there,I have a native program that I use for converting some custom
created files. I just would like to know if it is possible somehow to
configure PDFG to use this batch program to do the conversion.If this is
not possible - could you tell me an alternative way of using LiveCycle
to do the conversion - I mean is there a simple way to make LC invoke a
native executable file?Thanks in advanceKim ChristensenDafolo A/SDenmark
Hi all,A have tried to use an ExecuteScript with the following code on a
LC ES 2.5 Weblogic Windows 2003 installation:import org.apache.log4j.*;
Logger myLog = Logger.getLogger("com.myname.logger");myLog.error("Error
in my central server log");However I cannot find this in any of the

up in the server.log file, however I am not sure which log file it

Hi all,I am wondering how to create a custom component that instantiates

Hi all,I have a form that should submit its xdp to a server side
component. However if the server is down the user is left with a Error
404.I am submitting through the following code:myDoc.submitForm({ cURL:
submitUrl , cSubmitAs: "XDP", aPackets: ["*", "pdf"], cCharset:
"utf-8",}); I am wondering if there is any way you can do a test before
I do the actual submit to see if the server is up and if it is then do
the submit?Anyone with an idea how to do this?Thanks in

Hi again Nith,This was my initial thought as well, but the customer want
the individual processes to log to individual files that rolls every
day. Hence I am not sure I can use the AdobeLogger?The code you show
here should be placed in a executeScript service right? And then it will
log to the managed server log (I am on WebLogic 11g) i guess.Is my
initial question/scenario impossible to achieve or is it just
difficult?\Kim
Hi all,I am doing a project where I have a number of processes
(renderPDF, renderPDFA, and renderPCL) Each of these processes are run
many times during the day and they need to log in each of their own
logfiles. I have setup the log4j properties file up right and got almost
what I want. Now I just need all of the above processes to share the
same log instance. Hence I have tried to create my own service component
that should be instantiated at startup of the server. However I must do
something w...
Hi all,I am doing a project where a process receives an xml-file and
should then render a form corresponding to the xml. Simple ehh However I
find some difficulties using namespaces in the xml that is contained in
the xml. For instance when a namespace changes version its reference in
the xml changes e.g.
fromxmlns:formko="http://xmls.skatteverket.se/se/skatteverket/formular/komponent/0.2"toxmlns:formko=http://xmls.skatteverket.se/se/skatteverket/formular/komponent/0.4"Whenever
this happens I fi...
Hi again Vik, Thank you so much for your sample.It works perfectly –
however it is not exactly what I was looking for. Let me try to describe
the scenario: I have a form with (or without) a schema (I don’t think
that it matters that much with the schema). The form needs to be filled
through a web service call with the structure that contains the children
inside numerous childGroups (like the one you sent me). So when the form
opens it reads the social security number and fetches the kids of this...
Hi Jasmin,How did you manage to do this? I tried my self, however I did
not succeed.How was your set value created for the map? ANd do you know
whether it would work if the map of lists was exposed as the output of a
SOAP web service?Thanks in advance\Kim
Hi there Vik,I was afraid that this was the case.I have thought exactly
the same thing that you are saying with an xml-variable, but haven't
been able to achieve what I want.What I want is the form to fill out the
fields one by one when I invoke the process, however when I invoke the
process through the form I just get one field with all the xml
structered in the way of the xml-schema, but I am not sure how I can
take this xml and use it to fill the fields in my form.My XML structure
is like the...
Hi all,In LC Workbench you can define a variable to be a list of lists.
However what I have realized is that it does not seems to work as I
expected.Scenario:I need a process that returns a list containing a
number of elements that themselves are lists. I want to use this in a
form to represent some type of structure in this form.I have created a
process that with a list variable of strings (ChildList) and one
variable which is a list of list (ChildGroup).I create and fill the
ChildList and this...
