Is it possible to create a PDF with a variable number of lines?

I am a very new adobe user, but before my company invests in software need to know if this is possible.  The general idea is that we need to be able to create a form in adobe/livecycle, that people who use the drive can be filled.  The problem is that whenever this form is completed, it will have a different number of lines.  Is it possible to create a form that whenever a row is filled (with a description and a price) which will be generated a new line with the same fields to serve?  Create lines on the form is not an option, because the range can be up to several hundred or beyond in some cases and it is not realistic for us to have several pages of lines to be used when the majority of the time, that only the first page will be used, then when the form is printed additional empty pages is printed.  Currently, we use an excel form to accommodate our needs with the only downfall being that all users of the form have to buy microsoft office.  Any help?

Hello

Yes it is possible, but you should ensure that you follow a few best practices to ensure that the form with several rows of hundred become slow or unstable.

There are a few examples of dynamic tables here, which at least should give you an idea of what is possible. Open in Acrobat/Reader to see user experience, you can also open in the designer to see how the form is built.

Sections and tables: http://assure.ly/fItII5.

It's more detailed / teaching and shows how to place the form of dynamic behavior: http://assure.ly/gk8Q7a.

Hope that helps,

  • AM Customer Interface + method with a variable number of parameters

    Hello

    I use JDev11 & ADF. I have an App Module exteding, an application custom module (ApplicationModuleImpl) class. I created a few methods and expose them in the Client Interface.

  • Can I create a PDF with ZERO page?

    Hello, can I create a PDF with ZERO page? I want to make a pdf file of zero-page as a placeholder in a folder of PDF files, which is regularly involved in books. The idea is, when pages are removed from a few books, but not others, to replace in this space for the ZERO page and in the copy of the Tower on the placeholder at a later date, or never. Then, the number of files remains unchanged in the folder, and combined pdfs don't know just the zero pages in pdf format. Something like that possible? Thank you.

    No, the rules of the PDF is a format of one or more pages. Good idea, but cannot fly.

    Hi landon39843319,

    You can have fields flowing / more dynamic in a PDF of LiveCycle Designer form, but not in an AcroForm (only created in Acrobat).  LiveCycle Designer is a program completely separated used for are delivered with each purchase Acrobat Acrobat XI has been release.  Now you must buy separately.  But LiveCycle Designer PDF forms are wrapped in a shell of PDF so that they will be displayed and can be filled in the free Acrobat Reader DC and earlier versions.

    If you do this in Acrobat with an AcroForm, you have as much information typed into a field that the user wants, but he's going to show everything on the screen.  Displays only the text that fits into the field, then a + sign will appear in the field to indicate that there is more text in this field, you can scroll down to read.  You can also set the automatic font size so that as more text is entered in the police becoming smaller and smaller to adjust the text, but that is usually not desirable for many forms.

    Hope this helps,

  • Is it possible to create a PDF file using only the pages of an existing PDF?

    Is it possible to create a PDF file using only the pages of an existing PDF?

    Hi drdanger,

    There is a way, and it requires Acrobat. You need Acrobat to extract pages from a PDF. You are welcome to try free for 30 days, Acrobat, if you haven't already. See www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html for more information.

    If Acrobat, you choose extract in the Pages of the Toolbox pane, then specify which pages you want to extract. These pages are extracted to a new PDF file, which then you name and save it.

    Best,

  • How can I create a PDF with editable fields?

    I have a problem with my Microsoft word at the normal address form. Customers who fill out the forms, complete their area prescribed in form, but some of them also change the original text of the form. I though it would be better if direct to a digital solution by which I can have all my PDF form, but the need to 'fill in the fields' remains a problem. Is there a way where I can create a pdf with editable fields form my clients to fill out the requested information? This solution will also allow my clients the advantage of not having to print forms but rather to complete on the computer. Help, please.

    It seems the comment by Bernd, this version 7 (Standard) did not have this

    the fact of functionality, but version 9 (Standard).

    See: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/matrix.html

    However, as I wrote, if you want users to be able to save the file after

    they filled, you will need version 9 (Pro).

    And Acrobat has an assistant who can pick up the fields that were created in Word

    and convert them into Acrobat form fields.

  • With a variable number of input ports on a Subvi

    How can I have a Subvi with a variable number of input ports that can be changed in the other VI that uses the Subvi?

    You can't actually do what you trying to do, how LabVIEW is implemented does not screw created by the user with arbitrary entries.  And to be honest, there is probably a better way to do whatever it is you want to do.

    If you really really want to do that, but... you can come kind of close.

    1. create a new VI

    2. change its connector to the one with the inputs and outputs pane more possible (terminals 8-6-6-8, 28)

    3 create controls/indicators for any desired input/output of not scaling can connect the (i.e. the error in / error, son of reference, etc.)

    4. hang them until the connector pane

    5 count how many entries are left and create a control for each entry and their son all

    6 drop your VI on the block diagram of the VI one another as a Subvi

    7. Note that when you mouseover, it looks like a Pincushion

    8. right click the VI and uncheck the "display as icon".

    9. you can now "slide down" at the bottom of the VI

    The terminals in the section "slide down" are as a package by name or node property that you can click on them to reallocate them to what it is not already selected.  The default is to make all the entries in alphabetical order, then all the outputs in alphabetical order.  If you rename the terminals that allows you to make appear in the order that you prefer is up to you.

    As all terminals, for the best that you can do to detect if they are wired is to define a default value that should never be used.  If she is floating points, you can use 'NaN' or 'Inf '.  If this is a cluster that you did, add an item more boolean which is true in the default values for this entry VI.

    Then just wire up all the identical terminals together in a table, filter the items which appear to be unwired and make all your treatment on the rest.

  • It is possible to create a template with automatic adjustment of text/layout boxes?

    I am trying to create a template with an image under the banner from the top, an image under the banner of the bottom, and some copy between that.

    The header and footer banners have a border (approx. Gray 10px 2px white then black of 10px).

    I want to create a model so that a user can fill with a copy, but this field automatically expand as needed.

    Anyone know if this is possible?

    Thank you!

    Hi Ying,

    You can do this natively in Eloqua. Unfortunately the height and width of an Eloqua email are static (as opposed to the expansion and contraction as needed).

    You could build the html (using tables instead of div tags) to outside email then Eloqua email create a text box, right-click on it and choose "Edit source" and paste your code there. This would be the setting for the users. But note that after the update of the copy, they would still have to adjust the height of the email.

    I can help with the code, if you need.

  • How to create a pdf with Acrobat Pro 7 which can be edited/saved by user

    Found the link to this and he lost!  Now, I'm wasting time trying to figure it out yet - 3 hours!  The PDF with fields was created with Acrobat.  When I tested with Adobe Reader, it will not allow the user to save the file - fill and print ONLY.  Friday, I was able to find a workaround, but now I forgot.  Any help is appreciated.  Thank you!

    Hi Tiggerc,

    If you have Acrobat Pro 7 or higher, you can add reader allowing rights to the PDF document that will allow the user with the Reader Adobe free to fill out and save the form.

    You can find it in the menu advanced in Acrobat 7 with similar wording to "Expand in Adobe Reader" or "Enable usage rights in Adobe Reader".  After selecting this menu option just follow the guests of the dialog box.

    Let me know if you have any questions

    Kind regards

  • Is it possible to create a panel with JavaScript?

    Hi friends

    As I m student JavaScript and UI creation... want to ask (more out of curiosity):

    Is it possible to create a new Panel for Illustrator by using JavaScript? Or it is possible with C++?

    (in the class of window INTERFACE, we have the method of creating "the palette"... so ask the result too)

    Thank you very much

    Gustavo

    Hi Gustavo, you cannot create panels in Javascript, you can make that dialogue and pallet boxes. For panels you can use PlugIns (C++) or Extension Builder (Action Script + Javascript)

    http://www.Adobe.com/devnet/creativesuite/cs-extension-Builder.html

    or Flex and Flash Builder (Action Script + Javascript also) but a lot more difficult than using the Extension Builder

  • How to create A PDF with text OCR invisible and no Unicode font incorporated

    We have a code that converts TIFF (usually traveled and OCR'ed) in PDF format. Currently, I extend this code:

    1. be PDF/A compliant (or PDF/A-1b "Unicode" or PDF/A-2u).
    2. Add Unicode text 'behind' the image to make the PDF can be accessed, and
    3. while making (2), do not embed all fonts (which is allowed in PDF/A, as long as the text is invisible).

    I managed to generate a PDF file that pass the test of PDF/A preflight in Adobe Acrobat 9 (we have yet a license for a newer version), and which is also consistent with other requirements above, with one of the problems during their opening in Acrobat (9) or Acrobat Reader (DC), I get the error "cannot find or create the police."

    Replace the name of fancy font with that of one of the 14 standard fonts, said Courier, does not help.

    Unfortunately, I was not able to find or create PDF sample files that show how to add invisible text without embedding a font. I could operate without a Unicode mapping, referring to the Courier not incorporated and using WinAnsiEncoding. However, in order to use the Unicode format, I have to add some police structures, so there's a ToUnicode mapping according to the PDF/A standard, and then I can't get rid of this warning, which of course would make it unusable PDF for our customers.

    I couldn't really find in the PDF specification or the PDF/A standard what exactly "do not embed a font" meant on a technical level. I assumed that this meant "leaving aside the tag /FontFile2 and police data, to which it refers", but apparently, this isn't quite the case.

    If this is not possible, I might incorporate a fake police, like empty Adobe but with (empty) glyphs that have a width, but it really shouldn't be necessary if I understand standards.

    Any help or tips at least are appreciated.

    Published by: Gerben your; separate long lines in the code.

    Published by: Gerben your; Comment on Adobe-Blank as police.

    But it's a required parameter with sense. Encoding is highly relevant for embedded and not embedded fonts. So it must be good, not just there... and it is not normal for a substitution font...

    I would like to create a registration page for my Muse site with different subscription choices, but I don't know if it's possible or, if this is how I build. Any ideas?

    Hello

    This is possible since the end of the hosting platform. If you are using Business Catalyst to host your website, you can use events, campaign of subscriptions module, attach the subscriptions etc. of the area.

    You can create events/announcements on end of BC and then add the module in the Muse page which on post will show the modules on the page.
