• How to get AFExecuteThisScript to return the value of Net.HTTP.request (asynchronous)?

  I have an Acrobat only plugin, developed in 2005 VS.  Originally with Acrobat 7 SDK, now updated to use Acrobat 9 SDK.  The ultimate goal of this feature is to open a PDF file from a web server Agile: If a user string, a URL is created, a request sent to the URL, then pay back the answer.  The answer can be either the PDF itself or a string path to the PDF file.  I thought it would be easier to use the version of PDF path to simply open the new PDF of the http:// address.

  I created a folder level javascript with a call to Net.HTTP.request confidence.  I have a script that works when invoked from a menu item added by the folder level javascript file.  But when you use this same command in my C++ with AFExecuteThisScript code, I can't get the HTTP response to finish pending in the code for the result.

  The Net.HTTP.request and the asynchronous callbacks confuse me, so maybe that's my big problem.  I could not Net.HTTP.request to return a value in a service simple javascript right now, I'm trying to use a "global" variable in the JavaScript folder level and two calls.  The first call "sets" the global variable, the other "becomes" it.  But this seems to be the issue.  When I have my code debugging or stop execution, the part of the response of the Net.HTTP.request is never called.  But when I left to go beyond this step with error recovery, the answer appears later.

  So how kick off of the Net.HTTP.request and be notified when it's over?  either in JavaScript or VC ++?

  Any help is appreciated.  Even if the best option is to stream the file from the web server to a local file and then open the (this is the option that I take in another tool that runs outside of Acrobat).

  Here's the code.

  Javascript controls at the level of the files (urls truncated for the post)

  var THE_PATH = '';
  
  function setTHE_PATH ( gURL ) {
      console.println('setTHE_PATH Begin');
      var params =
      {
          cVerb: 'GET',
          cURL: gURL,
          oHandler: 
              {
                  response: function( msg, uri, e)
                  {
                      console.println('response method: Setting Path');
                      THE_PATH = SOAP.stringFromStream( msg );
                      console.println('<<' + THE_PATH + '>>');
                  }
              }
      };
      console.println('URL: ' + params.cURL + '\n  oHandler: ' + params.oHandler );
      console.println('Path: ' + THE_PATH );
      var netResult = trustedNetHTTPrequest(params);
      console.println('setTHE_PATH End');
      return THE_PATH;
  };
  
  trustedNetHTTPrequest = app.trustedFunction( 
      function ( params ) {
          console.println('trustedNetHTTPrequest begin');
          app.beginPriv();
          var netResult = Net.HTTP.request( params );
          app.endPriv();
          console.println('trustedNetHTTPrequest end');
          return netResult;
      }
  );
  

  Added MenuItems with JavaScript at the folder level

  app.addMenuItem( { 
      cName: "mysetTHE_PATH", 
      cUser: "set THE_PATH", cParent: "Tools", 
      cExec: "setTHE_PATH('http://......&getURL=true');",
      nPos: 0 
  } );    
  
  app.addMenuItem( { 
      cName: "mygetTHE_PATH", 
      cUser: "get THE_PATH", cParent: "Tools", 
      cExec: "console.println( THE_PATH );",
      nPos: 0 
  } );   
  

  Here's the JavaScript Console output when you run these two commands:

  setTHE_PATH Begin
  URL: http://......&getURL=true
    oHandler: [object Object]
  Path: 
  trustedNetHTTPrequest begin
  trustedNetHTTPrequest end
  setTHE_PATH End
  response method: Setting Path
  <<https://......DesiredFilename.pdf>>
  

  Here is the function in the plugin C++, with additional measures to prove AFExecuteThisScript works here

  sprintf(jsScript, "testVal='%s';event.value = testVal;", strURL.c_str() );
  AFExecuteThisScript( aPdDoc, jsScript, &pReturnValue );
  // After this, pReturnValue is the passed-in URL, as expected.
  sprintf(jsScript, "setTHE_PATH('%s');event.value = 'Step 1 Worked!!';", strURL.c_str() );
  AFExecuteThisScript( aPdDoc, jsScript, &pReturnValue );
  // After this, pReturnValue is 'Step 1 Worked!!', as expected.
  sprintf(jsScript, "event.value = THE_PATH;", strURL.c_str() );
  AFExecuteThisScript( aPdDoc, jsScript, &pReturnValue );
  // After this, pReturnValue is NULL
  

  This is the JavaScript Console output when you run the commands using the plugin (mode debugger, to wait after step 1)

  setTHE_PATH Begin
  URL: http://......&getURL=true
    oHandler: [object Object]
  Path: 
  trustedNetHTTPrequest begin
  trustedNetHTTPrequest end
  setTHE_PATH End
  

  Note that he never gets to the part of the "method of response.

  Thank you!

  You need not limit yourself to the plugin API. The requests HTTP from C/C++ is a fairly common condition, just observe the restrictions in my answer.

• NET.http.Request in a document-level script

  Is - it really not possible as indicated in the documentation?

  Seems to work with a GET verb in a certified document, which is trust on the customer running Pro...

  With the help of a certified document where the user has added the signatory certificate to their list of trusted certificates is another way to allow JavaScript to run, it is simply not always explicitly mentioned in the documentation.

• How to send a document in net. HTTP.request as a POST variable?

  I have read and reread the doc on the net. HTTP.request and he says I can pass an argument to oRequest, but I failed to pass in the current document, which is what I want to do.

  I tried app.activeDocs [0], or the encoding of a string, but if he makes the call with no error, nothing is sent.

  ORequest must be a single document, or a variable consisting of name-value pairs? How to send multiple parameters to a POSITION otherwise?

  I did very well with the call using GET, but when I tried to send the document as a GET variable, I did nothing either.

  I send to an end point of LiveCycle REST so either POST or GET is fine.

  Thank you!

  Validating the document current is simple * provided * your script runs outside the context of the document (i.e. in the console or a script to the folder level). There is no access to scripts of doc-level for obvious reasons.

  For example, put this in the console JS OCCURS the current file to a URL:

  Net.HTTP.request ({}

  cVerb: 'POST',

  cURL: "http://localhost/submit.php."

  oRequest: Collab.documentToStream (this);

  oHandler: {}

  answer: function (msg, uri, err) {}

  If (err! = undefined) app.alert (msg);

  }

  }

  });

  Your problem talking to a vanilla Web service, is that you can send the RFC1867 delimiters (i.e. the form apply for "multipart/form-data") that the ReadStream object is not a method of concatenation in the JSAPI Acrobat. It's also how you would usually precede other fields in the form, but if you are careful with your codes side server that you can send to save them as GET parameters in cURL. Normally, you'd be polite and passed a context of Type in the table of aHeaders header - it won't matter for the transmission process, but will allow your webservice predict what that heck he was sent.

  Your webservice will then read the raw data. PHP for example, you will get nothing in the $_FILES global, but you can grab the PDF by reading all of the input buffer, with the line:

  $pdf = file_get_contents() ("php://input");

  If this line was in the server script which was the JS code above, the variable $pdf will contain an exact binary copy of the currently opened document.

• Acrobat Pro XI when it is installed on Acrobat 9 Pro removes LiveCycle Designer.

  Acrobat Pro XI when it is installed on Acrobat 9 Pro removes LiveCycle Designer.  Central forms cannot open LiveCycle Designer Forms then what are you doing?

  I uninstalled XI and re-installed LiveCycle Designer only.  On replacing, I chose not to uninstall version 9 and to make a customer put in place (do not install the power plant forms).

  LiveCycle now works with Acrobat ProXI

• PDF http request

  Hello

  I'm working on Acrobat Pro

  My goal is to Send a HTTP request by my PDF file

  I took a classic example:

  I put the javascript code in programs /Acrobat/.../javascript/

  
  

  AJAX = {function (cURL)}

  var params =

  {

  cVerb: 'GET ',.

  cURL: cURL,.

  oHandler:

  {

  answer: {function (msg, uri, e, h)

  var stream = msg;

  string var = "";

  String = SOAP.stringFromStream (stream);

  App.Alert (String);

  }

  }

  };

  Net.HTTP.request (params);

  }

  app.addMenuItem ({cName: "Go PHP", cParent: "File"})

  cExec: ' ajax ("http://localhost/myPage.php" ' ");", "

  cEnable: «event.rc = (event.target!» (= null); »,

  NPO: 0

  });

  but when I go to 'File/Go PHP' Acrobat says that it is an error internal

  
  

  What is the problem?

  Thank you

  Wrap your ajax() function in a block of confidence so it does not run as part of the event target (i.e. the open document):

  AJAX = {app.trustedFunction (function (fURL)}

  app.beginPriv ();

  var params = {cVerb: 'GET', cURL: fURL, oHandler: {}}

  answer: function(msg,uri,e,h) {}

  var stream = msg;

  string var = "";

  String = SOAP.stringFromStream (stream);

  App.Alert (String) ;}}} ;

  Net.HTTP.request (params);

  app.endPriv ();

  });

  app.addMenuItem({)

  cName: "Go PHP", cParent: "file."

  cExec: 'ajax ("http://localhost/myPage.php");',

  cEnable: «event.rc = (event.target!» (= null); »,

  ({NPOS: 0});

• LiveCycle Designer reports errors when opening the pdf

  Hello

  I test LiveCycle Designer on a form of 6 pages.

  I created the form todat and everything works perfectly.

  After that my last save LiveCycle Designer cannot open the file (it crashes all of a sudden), but if I try to open the file in Adobe Reader file work properly.

  What you can do to understand what is happening?

  Is there a tool to check the error LiveCycle Designer pdf?

  Now I need to change the form, but I can't open it up more.

  Thank you very much for the help.

  There are some settings in your user directory that could be damaged. I assume that you have installed on

  the drive c. can you go into this place and delete the... then try again:

  C:\Documents and Settings\logged in nom\Application Data\Adobe\Designer\8.2

  When you launch the designer again these files will be recreated.

• Adobe Acrobat 9 and LiveCycle Designer

  We had a few creating forms of external aid and they have been using LiveCycle Designer and we would like to make a few changes, but given that we have only Acrobat 9 we are not able to open the form to edit the fields. When looking at the Help menu in Acrobat is stays you can use LiveCycle designer to modify forms created in Acrobat, however Acrobat cannot change the fields of forms that have been opened and saved in LiveCycle Designer.

  That said, do we not have LiveCycle and we don't know about it? Our foreign aid seems to think we should have? does anyone know a work around? Thank you!

  If you have Acrobat Pro or Acrobat Pro Extended, LiveCycle Designer is included with the installation. It is not included in Acrobat Standard.

  Assuming that you have Pro or Pro Extended, check the start menu for the program Designer - it will be with where ever Acrobat and Distiller are.

• I made a form of barcode using acrobat 9 pro and liveCycle Designer

  I made a form of barcode using acrobat 9 pro and liveCycle Designer, but the code bar in the gray eyes of acrobat reader... I know that I need some component to apply to the document... but I don't know how to get...

  You must activate Reader form with LiveCycle Reader Extensions and include the right to use of barcodes (BarcodePlaintext). You will need to contact Adobe for the price of information.

  Maybe... There was a lot of complaints about the new right hand pane and there was an update released yesterday, which addes some optimizations to it.

• Open the forms designed by Livecycle Designer in iPad

  Hello world

  I have a few dynamic forms that were designed using the Livecycle Designer ES and its requirement is at least a version of adobe acrobat 8.1. I have some users having difficulty opening these forms using ipad, although they got the latest version of adobe installed. I don't have an ipad and don't know. Can someone advise if there is a limitation in adobe readers in the iPad? what these users can do to solve it? What are the common problems with the opening of these advances froms of ipads?

• How to create an XFAF (XFA foreground) form in LiveCycle Designer?

  How to create an XFAF (XFA foreground) form in LiveCycle Designer?

  I don't see this option in ' Save as '.

  I see only dynamic 'static form' and 'xml '.

  Thank you

  XFAF designates a PDF with XFA (static shapes) content.

  In the designer, you can save your form designs in dynamic form (PDF XFA) or static form (PDF).

  The static are also sometimes appointed XFAF.

  See page 19 for more information on XFAF xfa.

• Fill PDF forms with LiveCycle Designer - "Permanence" of technology

  I like to PDF using LiveCycle Designer Forms.  I want to use with the organizations, I work to make the forms to fill out.  But I fear that the forms "break" more easily than the Acroforms.  Generally - is this concern of mine?

  -If I have a subform in a form sank makes 'visible' in certain circumstances and "hidden" in others - using a script JavaScript, this feature still works to proceed?  What happens if Adobe sold Designer?  Is - less likely to work on a similar feature in Acroforms?

  -How about the design of the form itself - if designed with LiveCycle Designer - the text, its implementation of form fields and their features, pages...

  Thanks for your comments.

  It is impossible to say if XFA in Acrobat/Reader support will be in the future. Most of the non Adobe PDF viewers and mobile Adobe's PDF viewers have little or no support for XFA forms, dynamics in particular, which has been a problem for a while. AcroForms were much more support and are part of the standard, ISO 32000, unlike XFA. Used in Acroforms JavaScript is being standardized, but I don't think that is the counterpart of XFA.

• If I have Acrobat DC should I form Livecycle Designer?

  If I have Acrobat DC should I form Livecycle Designer?

  Not if you have purchased the designer.

  The designer used to be installed with Acrobat. Certainly since Acrobat XI you must purchase it separately - unless you license server / AEM-Forms-Server. Then you have the included Designer. Or if you use SAP - you can also have a designer.

• InDesign how compare to LiveCycle Designer ES to create interactive form?

  Hi all

  I work as an assistant COMPUTER in a company. Before my job, my supervisor used LiveCycle Designer to create all our forms. Much of this work fell on me now, but I'm trying to figure out which program would be best suited. I find LiveCycle to be somewhat archaic, and it does not sit well with other programs, even in the following Adobe. More alarming, that seems not be supported almost as well as any other program Adobe, as if he were to be progressive. I don't want to learn this program if it becomes obsolete as soon as...

  What I don't like not inDesign, is that while it covers all the defects mentioned, it does not seem much LiveDesigner employs some advanced features. It comes to things like the calculations behind the scenes and scripts in the PDF itself. If I missed those options, I'd love to be corrected.

  What does the community think? LiveCycle Designer is worth learning, or inDesign powerful enough to provide what I need?

  Thank you

  If you want stuff like that, stick with LiveCycle Designer, with all its limitations. LiveCycle Designer is therefore more part of the Acrobat, is Windows only, etc. etc. My impression is that Adobe is it gradually.

  InDesign is just an entry by creating a form in Acrobat. It's a comfortable and familiar layout for InDesign users. There is a large group of people who know how to create and use Acrobat Forms. No doubt some of the things you want from LiveCycle can be done by adding JavaScript, but it happens in Acrobat Pro, not in InDesign. You should spend some time in the forum of PDF Acrobat forms because you would spend part if your time in InDesign, part of your time in Acrobat Pro:
