Re: Saving form for use by Acrobat without Comment Panel - Adobe LiveCycle 30-05-2012

Yes I thought it had something to do with that.The original document has this information on the document properties:PDF Producer: Acrobat Distiller 8.1.0 (Windows)PDF Version:1 .7 (Acrobat 8.x)Does that mean it is an Acroform document?I don't mind converting it to a XFA form through LC Designer, so long as I can control the Comment panel that shows up afterwards.Is there anyway to control that display?AJ

Saving form for use by Acrobat without Comment Panel - Adobe LiveCycle 30-05-2012

I have a pdf form which seems to have been produced by Acrobat.It required editing for some simple text changes. This was no problem using Acrobat, saving the form to remove security settings, and then using the Tools - Content - Edit Document Text option.But this form also has fillable form fields on it, one of which required editing for font size.Despite the fact that there were no security settings at all on the form, the form field was not selectable using the Edit Object option.So I opened ...

Re: How to set multiple Last page placement in a page set - Adobe LiveCycle 16-01-2012

I was trying to find the x coordinate (not the y) to determine how far to the left that the subform shows.If there is something else that would tell me if the subform is being displayed in the Left ContentArea or the Right ContentArea, then that would give me the necessary info.Essentialy, what I need is this:if (subform shows in the left content area ) then add the height of the left content area to the subform else don't add anythingend ifTheoretically this should then ensure that my spacer su...

Re: How to set multiple Last page placement in a page set - Adobe LiveCycle 15-01-2012

This looks very helpful, thanks Niall. This seems like the right track for me to solve my problem.However it does not quite work when the page layout is two columns. I actually need to detect when the last subform C is being displayed in the left hand column, then add sufficient space to force it to show in the right hand column (following your suggestion of a spacer subform that has its size set dynamically).Since the form is flowed, I understand that I have to use xfa.layout.x(this) , instead ...

How to set multiple Last page placement in a page set - Adobe LiveCycle 12-01-2012

Problem statementForm with the 4 subforms named A to D. A turns B on or off, D is only visible when printing. When viewing the form interactively I need the following order (number in brackets indicates columns):When printing the form I need the following order:A (2)C (2)A (2)C (2)A(2)B(1)C(2)A(2)C(2)D(1)I can do this just fine with some fancy scripting.However, the problem is that on the last page must appear a box in the lower right hand corner.This must appear in the same place no matter whic...

Re: Reset subforms on pdf reload - Adobe LiveCycle 12-01-2012

In the end I achieved what I wanted by using scripting in the form:ready event of specific objects.The radio button list (R1) has a form:ready event in which I called the change event.In turn the R1 change event calls the D1 change event.When I tracked these events through the form loading process then I got the desired sequence R1, D1, R2, D2, etc etc.Because the default value of R1 is to show the A1 subform, then when a brand new form is loaded, and the R1 change event is called from the form:...

Yes that option is selected already.But it does not seem to be having the desired effect.

Reset subforms on pdf reload - Adobe LiveCycle 10-01-2012

I have a problem when loading a pdf which has partially filled in form field values.The form has repeating sections and multiple related sections.There are several drop down lists and radio button lists which control the display of other sections.This is my scenario:Open a new form, this has R1 with subform X1 as defaultEnter data in fieldsMake radio button selection (R1) which removes one subform(X1) and adds another (A1).The new subform(A1) has a drop down list(D1) which when changed, adds ano...

Re: Blank page showing when changing from two column to one column pages - Adobe LiveCycle 11-12-2011

I have finally managed to solve this problem.The issue was not a subform extending too far out, it was a pagination setting, as Niall suggested.I created a blank document to analyse the issue closely, and lo, my new blank doc with all default settings, worked perfectly.So I revisited my forms and compared the pagination settings subform by subform.This is what I had to change to ensure that all pages flowed with no extras:PageSetOne (which is supposed to show using the two column master) set the...
