Choose file >; form data >; create spreadsheet - where is - this dialogue?
It's the dialogue that I have to use my pdf to generate the worksheet, so I can add returned forms. However, nowhere can I find;
Choose file > form data > create the spreadsheet of data files
This is found in the QuickStart tutorials in the section titled "Collecting data in a spreadsheet" - number 2 of the section
How the hell do I either one) find him
(b) set up my Adobe software to show
or (c) create the right folder that "encourage" this option to consider when I open Acrobat (Pro 9).
I'm confused by force and, having looked around the internet, am not alone in this.
Thanks much for any help you can offer people.

Download/save any forms replied (not spreadsheet data)
I run a school and want to configure question papers using Adobe forms that my students can respond to documents and present their answer sheets. My question is: after you have submitted the answer sheets forms, I need to download the forms, because they are treated and not like for example a spreadsheet poster data entered on Forms. I need to print the answer sheet of all the students to put in their portfolios. Is this possible?
In other words, the result that I must download must be the form displays the questions and answers.
The easiest way is to create a button and use an action to "Submit a form" where you specify a URL of the type mailto and specify that the entire PDF file is submitted, rather than simply the form data. Turn a tutorial for more information. Users will be able to partially fill and save and return later to finish. Player 11 (XI) and DC users will be able to save the form, but if you have all users of previous versions of the player, you will need to take the extra step activation reader the document as a step of lst before distributing it to your users. This allows these Alder versions of player to register the updated form the.
Email is not reliable stuff, but it may be sufficient for your needs. The biggest problem today is learning to use Adobe Reader (or Acrobat) and not a spectator no Adobe PDF that does not support the action of submission form.

Extract PDF form data using JavaScript and write in the CSV file
I received a PDF file with a form. The form is * not * formatted as a table. My requirement is to extract form field values and write into a CSV file that can be imported into Excel. I tried using the menu item "Merge data from spreadsheet files" automated in Acrobat Pro, but the release includes both the labels and values. I'm mostly just interested in the form field values.
I would use JavaScript to extract the data from the form and learn JavaScript write CSV file (since I know what should look like the spreadsheet of end). I got regarding the extraction of the fields in the form:
this.getField("Today_s_Date").value;
And the rest of this post: http://StackOverflow.com/questions/17422514/how-to-write-a-text-file-in-Acrobat-JavaScript , I tried to write to CSV using:
var cMyC = "abc";
var doc = this.createDataObject ({cName: "test.txt", cValue: cMyC});
but I get the following error:
"SyntaxError: syntax error".
1:Console:Exec ".
Ideally, I don't want to use a third-party tool online to make, because the data are sensitive. But please let me know if you have any suggestions. The ideal output is a CSV file that an end business user can open in Excel to see the format of spreadsheet of his choice.
Did anyone done this before? Open to hearing alternatives as well. Thanks in advance!
The code you have posted works fine for me in the JavaScript console, so I suspect the problem is something else. Where did he put the code and y at - he seized another code?
In addition, if CSV is not a strong requirement, I would say that you use delimited by tabs instead. Fields normally cannot contain tab characters, this is a good qualifier to use. It will be also more reliable when you import in Excel. If you need to process the field data that may contain quotes, you need prepare correctly the string data and can use a JavaScript library like this: https://github.com/uselesscode/ucsv

Enumeration of the fields of form data in a PDF file
Hey there,
I have an existing VS C++ application and I would like to add the ability to enumerate all fields of form data in an existing PDF file. Before saying anything more, I must admit that I am a total newbie to Adobe technology. This fact will probably be quite obvious in a few sentences: - D.
In any case, I think I should use the portion of the IAC to the API of Acrobat. I had downloaded the SDK of X, and I found the files acrobat.h and acrobat.cpp that provide the CAcroApp wrapper. I am able to create this object as follows...
Try
{
IUnknown * punkAcrobat;
IDispatch * pdispAcrobat;
CLSID clsidAcrobat;
CLSIDFromProgID (L "AcroExch.App", & clsidAcrobat);
Create an instance of Acrobat and
get a ptr to its IUnknown interface
HR =: CoCreateInstance (clsidAcrobat, NULL, CLSCTX_SERVER,
IID_IUnknown, (void *) & punkAcrobat);
If (FAILED (hr)) up at the time.
Get the IDispatch interface for automation...
HR = m_punkAcrobat-> QueryInterface (IID_IDispatch, (void *) & pdispAcrobat);
If (FAILED (hr)) up at the time.
CAcroApp aa (ab.m_pDispAcrobat); comes from acrobat.h
AA. Show();
AA. Masquer();
AA. Exit();
}
catch (HRESULT hrException)
{
HR = hrException;
}
Life is good. Now, to enumerate the data fields of form (appropriate terminology?) in a PDF file, I * think * I need to get a pointer to the AFormAut.App COM interface. Of course, I can do this, as I've done above and, in fact, I have and it works. But then I would have some sort of sweet wrapper handy for this interface - just like the wrappers in acrobat.h. I also want a pony for Christmas! - D... anywayyyyy, such a wrapper is there? Can you give me some tips on how to get from there where I am above that it is able to call the method ExportAsFDF (I think that's what I need)?
As I said, I'm a newbie; so be nice .
Regards and thanks in advance!
Using AcroAVDoc instead of AcroPDDoc, the get_fields method seems to work. Perhaps one can post an example of MFC project as soon as I get this job.
Kind regards

I have created a form in LiveCycle. I need to have the data exported to a txt file. Previously, I've created a form in Word and it imported in LC. If this form has been filled out in Adobe and saved, I was able to export the data in a txt file. The form I'm working on now that I created in LC (instead of Word). When I fill the form in Adobe, save and then choose export to txt file, no data export. I have attached two forms: one that works (Unit_5_Preparate) and one that does not (assessment_template_test).
Thank you!
Hello
It was a learning experience (no pun intended).
If the LC Designer form is saved as 'static' then you will be able to export the data to a text file. If the form is saved as 'dynamic' then you won't be able to export to text file.
See the file saved as static.
Good luck

I recently had a hard drive replaced requiring a new installation of Windows 7. When I went to get the system in place, the guy who set up Windows told me that he created the user directory specifically in a way so that new files to be created in a Documents folder that was created under the username. At least that's what, in my view, said.
In any case, I always create new folders and their subfolders under Local C: drive. My question is: is there an approach appropriate to where and how files should be created and arranged, except directly in your main drive, in my case C:? Thank you for your help.
Windows 7 has been designed with the intention that user folders and files will be store in one of the folders under the users, that is to say the Documents, photos, etc.
It is not recommended to store in the root, i.e. C:\ directory.
If you have any other disks or partitions, you can store what you want there.

Automate the name of file with form data
We seek to use Adobe sign for our forms of active release in our office - everything is going well so far, I was just wonder if there is a way to change the file name of the completed form using the form data?
For example, once the form has been signed, it is just registered as 'agree active form' - However, before signing, we find the serial number of the asset and the user, it is associated with. Is it possible for the file name automatically and then say "Okay - USER - active form SERIES" or even simply the username if possible?
Thanks in advance.
Hi Matt,
Who is currently not possible, but is a pretty good enhancement request... I hope that it is picked up for implementation very soon.
Thank you

With previous versions, I could press control (mac) and click on a layer, and he would choose this graph, what form it was. Then I could go to image-culture and reframe the entire file down to that size. Now, this feature is missing. What is the new way to do this?
This is the command key, not the control key for a Mac that you use on the layer.

Cf11 enctype = "multipart/form-data" uploadind a file
Hello
I use Cold Fusion 11.
When I browse for the file to download, the location and the file in the text box is: S:\App\test.xml
< action = "fileaction.cfm cfform" enctype = "multipart/form-data" method = "post" > "
< P > enter the full path and name of the file to download: < /P >
< type CFINPUT = 'file' name = 'FileUp"size ="90">
< P > < input type = "Submit" value = "Upload" > < / p >
< / CFform >
But during execution of code above, the following location appears in the variable:
D:\ColdFusion11\cfusion\runtime\work\Catalina\localhost\tmp\neotmp803964384012527716.tmp
When I remove the enctype = "multipart/form-data" from the code, the file is found, but the error message in the administration of Cold Fusion is:
Invalid content type: application/x-www-formulaires-urlencoded. The upload files action requires forms to use enctype = "" multipart/form-data"
Is there something in the configuration files or the administration of Cold Fusion 11 to be changed?
It wasn't a problem with Cold Fusion 9.
Mike
Have you tried changing the cffile tag use accept = "text/xml, application/xml, application/octet-stream"? The IIS MIME type should not have an impact here, because it is to be managed server side of ColdFusion.

Protect the editing form, but always to export data to spreadsheet
Is there a way I can protect my forms for others cannot change them, but they are able to export the data into a spreadsheet?
Hello
You can use the function LockAllFields of Paul, which will prevent a user from changing a field, but still allow the export of form data. It is fundamentally affecting the access of all fields readOnly property.
See the example of Paul here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3168183#3168183. I have a slightly amended version here: http://assure.ly/yDtfsM.

Script for the use of XML data to pre file form open using the player
I need to pre fill five fields when the user opens the form using Acrobat Reader (title, name, address, etc.). The values are saved in an xml data file in the same directory as the form (no database or web services connections). I tested the xml code and form structures using shapes-> manage form data-> import data and everything works fine. Now, I need to emulate this behavior programmatically, so it does not work using only Acrobat Reader. I can't find the magic java script command to import the data (I tried xfa.host.importData and xfa.datasets.data.loadXML without result). Require purchase Pro or Livecycle Server product is not an option. This seems to be a basic requirement, so I hope I'm just being stupid and missing of which is obvious. Thank you.
Hello
Unless you're reader allowing the form with LiveCycle Reader Extensions ES, users with reader will NOT be able to import (or export) XML.
Summary here: https://acrobat.com/#d=3lGJZAZuOmk8h86HCWyJKg
Based on your description that you look at options 2 and 3, users with the reader.
Sorry,

I need to simplify the csv of a pdf form data extraction
I have a complex PDF with fields to fill out. Once these are met, I want to extract the data in the fields, for insertion into a database.
I know that I can use the form to prepare, then more. Export data... will create a .fdf file. Then I can use Merge Data Files into spreadsheet... to generate a .csv file that contains all the data in. Then, I wrote code to extract this data and put it in my database of mssqlserver.
Several steps are required and I'd like to simplify as much as possible.
From the very beginning.
1. when I select export data, I am presented with a dialog box that uses 'Adobe_data.fdf Test' as the default file name. This default can be changed? By default, he can name that I used last time?
2. when I select merge data files into spreadsheet I am presented with a dialog box requesting the file. It cannot by default the file .fdf, that I just created? This dialog box includes a check box (last Include list of files to export data since) but I don't want the latest list, I want the .fdf file I just created by default. In addition, this procedure aims to 'fusion' of the data files. I want to just "merge" one file! The only reason I use it is it seems to be the only way to convert the .fdf in a (pseudo) - implemented) .csv file.
3. when I click on 'Export' in the dialog box, I have to retype the name of the file .fdf, since this type of file is not a part of the 'save as type' so I can't return the name.
4. This step ends with another dialog (export Progress) with a View file buttons now and dialogue narrow. I have to click the close dialog box.
It sounds like a large number of steps, and it will be more difficult it should be to train someone to review these procedures.
Is there a better (easier way?
Thank you.

You call with each click a 'step '? It is a bit exaggerated...
Anyway, you export the values of a single file or several files? If a single file then this task can be scripted, Yes, and the script can be attached to a button that can be triggered by a simple click.
If several files, then it is much more complicated and would require using an Action and a button, and I don't think that he will save "measures", compared to the original function.

How to NOT send some form data when the form is submitted
Hello
I created a PDF form with radio buttons in the Group and the boxes. When I the form of data, such as values using the submit by e-mail button to send form data as XML or merge data into a spreadsheet files, I'll see the data values for radio buttons and checkboxes.
What I want here is to don't get the data values for some controls such as the boxes option, but no other controls like check boxes, in the XML or Excel worksheet after submission of the form. I know how to hide the controls in the form, but I have to the visible and active boxes on the form.
Is there a way to hide or do not send form data when the form data is submitted?
Thank you
Sam
Hi Kyle,.
That's exactly what I want! Once I have not selected any data binding, the field is in shape and active, but when submitted as XML or it merge with a spreadsheet, the field is gone.
Forgive me if I didn't my self clear in my question. Answer you is straight to the point.
Thank you very much!

Thank you for taking the time to read my question. I use Adobe Acrobat Pro X. I have created a form and it works well. My question comes from a wait when I thought that I would be able to have the data returned in a string, or a comma string separated and not in a .pdf. file
Is it possible to do?
Example:
I send the pdf form to a user, the user fill it out, and when they send it to me, I just get the form data in an e-mail message, not the entire form.
Thank you
Brad
Excel does not support FDF or XFDF. Rather than choosing the option on your action button to "Submit a form", change to "Run a JavaScript" and press the Add button. After changing the mailto address, paste the following script:
this.submitForm({)
cURL: "mailto:[email protected]',"
cSubmitAs: 'XML '.
})Any fields left blank will be included in the returned data. If you want them to be included, or if you want that the differently structured XML, then an optional parameter can be added to the function call above (oXML). However, it can be complex depending on your needs for implementation of the XML data object to assign to oXML.
