What you're seeing it the Shell-PDF of an dynamic PDF form (aka XFA
form). This happens because you're using a PDF viewer, which doesn't
support the dynamic contents of this particular PDF.You'll have to use
Adobe Acrobat Reader/Acrobat 8 or newer. Safari or Apple Preview are not
useful for this purpose.
Hi, you could reference the fields through a script.Assuming the row
"Itemrow" in "table2" is repeating as often as the row "rowMain" of
"tblMain", all you need is a bit FormCalc in the calculate event of the
field "partcode" then: $ =
bdymain.tblMain.rowMain[$.parent.parent.index].colProduct
Hi, for date calculations you can use FormCalc, which is much easier
than JavaScript. The surcharge can be calculated in this way for
example: var nSurcharge = 0if
(Date2Num(EventStartDateField.formattedValue, "DD/MM/YYYY") - Date() le
20) then nSurcharge = 20endif$ = nSurcharge To protect a form, you can
either lock the uppermost element in your form or every single
field.There are plenty of examples in this forum available about this.
You can try antoher approach. This solution works different to the
importData()
method.https://thelivecycle.blogspot.com/2014/07/import-xml-via-script-into-adobe-reader.html
No. The remerge clears all existing scriptings from the memory. So you
can call a script after. Also, the importData() method doesn't return a
value you could use to verify if it has been executed successfully or
been aborted. The imported data is loaded into the form, so you can see
it directly in the form fields.
Why they should remove it? I mean you still can create XFA forms with
AEM Forms Designer which is still an active published product and there
are so many XFA based files out there already. I think for closed
environments (within companies) XFA forms still have many benefits you
can use for many years.
There's a solution to make it possible to edit floating fields in a
static text. You can use it since the static text would automatically
fit to the length of the floating
fields.https://blogs.adobe.com/formfeed/2010/09/editable-floating-fields-v3.html
Okay, it's a bit more complicated, but still doable.Here's my solution,
that works. So the spacer (the red thing) is rezising so the footer is
always pushed to the bottom of the last page. Here the full script: //
Calculate the height of the spacer subform // Put this into its layout
ready event var oSpacer = this.Spacer, // reference to spacer object
nPage = xfa.layout.absPage(oSpacer), // page number, where spacer is
currently present. This is the target page. nSpanPage, // Page number
where s...
Everything happens on a body page flowed top-to-bottom and allowing page
breaks. Don't put the header, content or footer subforms on the master
page. The master page only contains the content area, which defines the
area where the subforms on a body page can reside.
I think you'll need to use two different floating fields. One for the
capitalized strings and one for the lowercase string. In the latter, you
add a script to copy the value from the dropdown list and convert it to
lowercase.this.rawValue = DropdownList.rawValue.toLowerCase();
Hi, this is posibble. All you need is a scritpt in the layout ready
event of the row. Given the cells are named LAST_NAME, FIRST_NAME and
CHANGE_STYLE it could look this way: var bStyle =
this.CHANGE_STYLE.rawValue === "x" ? true : false;
this.LAST_NAME.font.weight = bStyle ? "bold" : "normal";
this.LAST_NAME.font.underline = bStyle ? "1" : "0";
this.FIRST_NAME.font.fill.color.value = bStyle ? "51,102,255" : "0,0,0";
this.FIRST_NAME.font.posture = bStyle ? "italic" : "normal";
this.FIRST_NAME.fo...
The footer has to be placed always at the bottom I guess? In that case I
would do it the following way.Two masterpages, one for the green/blue
content pages one for the orange services pages.The content page is
floating to to bottom and allows page breaks. Here you add an individual
subform for the header, contents and footer. Header and footer subform
are static the content subform is floating and allows page breaks. In
the content subform you add all the other contents you need and at very
las...
If you deselect the option to allow page breaks for the particular
subform it won't break but will jump to the following page it there's
not enough space left on the current page.
Hi, the best way it to check the input against an array of value.var
aList = ['Y78DC','4568','PEN_V7','PNX_45','DC567'], cInput =
txtSupplierID.rawVaue, bMatch = aList.some(function (cValue) {return
cValue == cInput;}); this.presence = bMatch ? "visible" : "hidden";
In FormCalc this is quite easy. The calculation script for the total
price could look this way:var factor = 1 if (not datefield2.isNull and
not datefield1.isNull) then if (Date2Num(datefield2.formattedValue,
"MM/DD/YYYY") - Date2Num(datefield1.formattedValue, "MM/DD/YYYY") lt 21)
then factor = 1.2 endif endif var totalPrice = quantity * price * factor
$ = totalPrice
As long the form will be used with Acrobat Standard or Pro and not
Reader you can use JavaScript to create attachments by the
creatDateObject(). Text files are supported, so you can create such file
with a csv-extension and fill it with data from your form. This csv-file
then can be opened then the attachment pane.
Is the second row also named Row1? If not, the script won't work there,
since Row1[*] resolves all instances of an element named Row1. In what
field do you place the calcuation script?
The line $.rawValue = (Row1[*].Cell9)*100 makes no sense, what are the
brackes for?If a refered field is in the same row, you don't need to
reference the row. $ = Cell9 * 100 To reference all instances of the
field in every row use the sum() method $ = Sum(Row1[*].Cell9) * 100 To
calculate a subtotals use variables. var SubTotal1 = Sum(Row1[*].Cell9)
* 100var SubTotal2 = Sum(Row1[*].Cell7) * 100$ = SubTotal1 * SubTotal2
There's an overview which functions from Acrobat JavaScript API you can
use. You'll find it in the scripting basics reference:
https://helpx.adobe.com/pdf/aem-forms/6-2/scripting-basics.pdfGenerally
you can use any JavaScript function defined by ECMA-262 5th edition, not
just the those definded by Acrobat DC JavaScript API:
https://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/AcrobatDC_js_api_reference.pdf
For arrays just use: var aValues = []; // Create an empty array
aValues.push("A n...
I guess you're seeing the "Please wait…" message when you open a dynamic
form?!This happens if you try to open those kinds of forms with an
incompatible PDF-viewer, which doesn't support XFA technology. Only the
desktop version of Adobe Acrobat / Reader fully supporting XFA.In rare
cases the PDF might be damaged but as long you can open it with
LiveCycle Designer its fine and the problem is the PDF viewer.
Designer is just the application to create the forms, nothing more. The
data can be extracted as XML file later through the PDF viewer such as
Adobe Acrobat, by using scripting methods like xfa.host.exportDate() or
submitForm(). Those methods can either be executed from buttons within
the form or by console or menu events in the PDF viewer.
You can store your XSLT stylesheet within the XML source and use it to
transform the xml data with the applyXSL() method before writing it into
the text field.
With Reader you'll have to force the JavaScript console to open with
console.show().This might not work in the PDF preview, since this tab
uses the browser plugin of reader. You better open your PDF separately.
You download link points to a very suspicious download service which
offers a lot of things to download or install but not you form Please
use a serious service to share your form.
If both images represent areas of the same form, it souldn't be such a
problem to add references to specific fields. For a better answer I
would have to see the form.In XFA forms your're using SOM expression to
reference form objects, which are explained here:
