• Installation of LiveCycle PDF Generator ARE

  Hello

  I went thought that the installation and configuration guide. Want to clarify a few points here

  (1) for the POC (for the purposes of the development of a custom code via SDK to merge PDF files), can I install LiveCycle ES on Windows Vista? Vista is 32 bit OS.

  (2) in LiveCycle PDF Generator ES notes I've met.

  When you use PDF Generator ES2 with a 64-bit application server, an additional 32-bit JAVA virtual machine must also be installed.

  On UNIX AIX server with WebLogic 10, do I have to install additional 32-bit Java to run LiveCycle PDF Generator ?

  (3) can I install WebLogic 10 / Websphere 6 (64-bit) on my vista desktop (32 bit) and proceed with the installation of LiveCycle PDF Generator?

  Please share some links to additional information (as installation details, SDK QAnywhere etc.)

  (4) is to install Acrobat Pro Extended for the use of PDF Generator SDK (only to Merge PDF files generated by SAP Business Objects Reporting tool).

  Thank you for the quick response, I got from this forum.

  Kind regards

  1 - the platform support matrix is included in the LiveCycle documentation: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/LiveCycle/9.5/supported_platforms.html

  Vista 32 and 64 are supported for turnkey (JBoss), assessment and development only.

  2 - Yes, you still need a 32-bit JVM

  3. you can do it, but this combination is not specifically referred to in the support matrix and therefore is not officially supported.

  4. If you do a simple assembler operation to combine PDF files, then you probably don't have Acrobat.  However; a license for Acrobat come with the purchase of product, so you won't need to buy a separate.

• Need info on livecycle pdf generator

  Hello

  My requirment is:

  Convert different image file and format of word document (.doc, .docx) to pdf and merge into a single pdf file and display it in the client on the net.

  I think I can use Livecycle Pdf generator to fill my requirment.

  My question is:

  1 box of use stand-alone generator pdf, I mean with other services,?

  2 I have this will integrate with java, so where can I find materials of referance? Is there any lib file?

  3 amd more important question is what is the price of livecycle pdf generator?

  Waiting for an answer...

  Thank you

  1 - Yes, any.   LiveCycle products require LiveCycle Foundation classes to run, but you don't need to install other modules (forms, ReaderExtensions, etc.).  With generator, you will get a few 'common' modules such as the assembler.  To merge two documents in the way that you mentioned, you will use the assembler.

  2 - Yes.  LiveCycle modules run on a J2EE platform and have a full Java API.  Jars of customer supplied with the product.  Java documentation is available online at:http://help.adobe.com/en_US/livecycle/9.0/programLC/javadoc/index.html

  Samples can be found at: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/livecycle/samples.html

  3 - price and licenses are too large to discuss in the forums.  This will depend on the volume of demand (which effects the number of processors), corporate discount, Adobe products, etc.  Your Adobe representative is better qualified to give you a quote based on your needs.

• 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.

• Is it possible to create a document merge pdf and mailing to several vendors (each with their own unique values) for them to individual e-sign?

  Is it possible to create a document merge pdf and mailing to several vendors (each with their own unique values) for them to individual e-sign?

  I have my letter and the data that is created in Excel and Word, so I want to create these data in a mail merge (by Word) and then saved in PDF format.

  I wish that each document merged PDF mail to have their signature / title / name of fields as fields of e-sign.  Is this possible? How can I configure my document as well what happends without me one in and edit every PDF document.

  Thank you ~.

  Hello Gallienterprises,

  It seems that you are looking to extract the values of your CSV file in the document of the multiple signatories. For this, you can use the MegaSign feature:

  Let me know if you need more information.

• Evaluvating LiveCycle PDF Generator ARE

  Hello

  POC, I need evaluvate LiveCycle PDF Generator ES. When I went to the product from Adobe site to download the trail version, I'm redirected to download LiveCycle ES.

  Is this the right way. To install and evaluvate LiveCycle PDF Generator, how I download suite Livecycle full of about 3 GB?

  Is this even when I have the product provider? because I only need LiveCycle PDF Generator, will I pay if I have to use the PDF generator for LiveCycle ES?

  Thank you

  ANU

  Hello

  Yes, you need to download the whole package Livecycle ES2. When you install the product, you can select to deploy only PDF Generator. When you purchase the product, you can install from even downloaded the package "trial". You can choose to buy only PDF Generator, or you can buy PDF G + additional modules in the package that you want.

• PDF Generator will provide the necessary features?

  I'm just starting LiveCycle and trying to figure out what to use for each scenario.

  I hope that someone could help me or direct me to places online where I could get help.

  Well, I have this customer who currently create PDFs manually the information he obtains from a database (essentially the information of government fees).

  He would like to automate the process and generate PDF documents automatically - so I think that brings us to LC PDF Generator ES, right?

  He also wants to establish a connection with an Oracle database to draw the info from there.

  Part of the info is also available in the reports generated in a different format.

  So I see two ways to get the news to generate the PDF file: one is the initiation of the process of a control folder and the other becomes the info directly from the Oracle database (probably through another layer).

  Once PDFs are generated, they should be made available on the Internet.

  What do need me for this application. Will I need other modules in addition generator LC PDF. ?

  Now, if he wants to add Digital Signatures and access contgrol, LiveCycle Digital Signatures ES and LiveCycle Rights Management ES will do the job?

  Thank you for all the ideas.

  PDF Generator is used to convert existing documents to a format (for example, a Word document) into a PDF file.

  It seems that you do not have an existing document, you have data in an Oracle DB.  In this case, you will need to merge the data in a model to produce PDFS.  This is usually done with LiveCycle Forms (for interactive PDF files) or LiveCycle Output (for non-interactive PDF documents, print).

  You define your model (the presentation of data) by using LiveCycle Designer that produces an XDP file.  Then feed you the XDP template, and the data in forms or output and you get a PDF file.

• PDF Generator, RHEL, and PostScript to PDF

  We start an eval of the LiveCycle PDF Generator. I managed to install LiveCycle on RHEL 6.1, and everything seems to be configured correctly. (I am able to load the /AdminUI, at least). The only installed module is generating of PDF, and when I try to convert a PostScript file to PDF, it fails with the following error:

  Of course, when I browse to the directory there is no .exe file (or anything else) here. Which confuses me a little - why they attempt to run an exe on a Linux environment? I'm really very green to LiveCycle and do not know what information would be useful to provide the operating system and installed software:

  OS: RHEL 6.1

  JAVA: 1.6 u45

  AppServer: JBoss 5.1 (that pre-configured with the distributable LCES4)

  LiveCycle: ES4 (11.0)

  I am pleased to provide you with additional information that will help in this matter of debugging. (This looks like a misconfiguration on my part and I hope that someone else has gone through what can bring a bit of feedback).

  Thank you.

  UPDATE: I solved the problem with the exe is not not in the specified folder - was a bad ear deploy. If the executable are now:

  /usr/share/lc_jboss/Server/lc_mysql/svcnative/PsToPdfSvc/PsToPdfService.exe

  However, we always get the error of not being able to find the executable file. Here is the list of directories:

  Still, this seems to be a configuration problem, but I'm really at a loss as to what I've misconfigured.

  It seems not much resolution successful a lot of questions here, so let me contribute to what I discovered for who can run in this issue:

  After reviewing the installation several times, playing with permissions, etc., it boiled down to a missing library. Essentially, when you install LiveCycle on a soft x 64 install RHEL, RHEL does not come with the required 32-bit libraries which requires PDF generator. The missing library for RHEL is glibc.i686. Interestingly, it is noted as a library required for installing LiveCycle on SUSE to RHEL.

  See you soon.

• Separated - is - PDF generator this possible?

  Hello!

  I would like to install the PDF generator on a dedicated machine, and other components LiveCycle to another machine. How to raise the process mgmt PDF generator location?

  Of course, I can make calls of PDF generator using the web service component. But it seems to be a bad solution.

  Is this possible at all?

  -Jaroslav

  LiveCycle is designed with the hope that all his pieces will reside in the same JVM (being done through consolidation scalability).  If you want to separate components and run separately, then you would have to make certain choices that might not be to your liking.

• Failed to add the service account to the pdf generator

  Hi guys,.

  Pourrait any assistance on the question I receive.

  I am currently working on a production server and adding a service account to the pdf generator and I get the error message: "the user account is not valid for the computer.

  I can't connect to windows with this fine account.

  Is there a group policy or and rights must be changed to fix this problem?

  Please advise,

• Merge PDF files as bookmarks in a single document.

  Im working in a folder with multiple file paths (folders in folders in the folders, etc.). Each folder contains PDF files.

  Problem: It takes too much time to find a single PDF, because it can exist in a file, a folder, a folder...

  Solution: I want all of PDF files (which exists in all folders) have merged into a single PDF file. In addition, I want different Folders as bookmarks in the merged PDF file.

  Therefore, these bookmarks represents wich folder PDF files came (bookmark = the name of the folder name). Then when I click on the bookmark (folder), all PDF files that was in this folder becomes visible.

  I'm Picturing a dokument endless with bookmarks to click on, for faster browsing in the PDF file. Since there are, in the files, files in folders... There are bookmarks, in bookmarks, in bookmarks.

  Now, I have only Acrobat DC. What software do I need and what is the easiest way to set up my endless merged PDF?

  Thank you

  Well, certainly that is impossible with the reader. You can merge all your documents and create bookmarks with the full version of Acrobat, but I don't think that there is a way to automate the creation of bookmark to coincide with the structure of your file. You can ask in the forum here Acrobat: Acrobat

• PDF generator

  Hello

  I recently received a question from a customer, if I could make a PDF generator on their Web site.

  They must update their PDF files in time and want their clients to always have the latest updates when they

  Download the PDF file. Is this possible in Muse? And how easy customer to update their information?

  Short version: not with Muse. Long version: this stuff requires the treatment of complex forms and a treatment like GhostScript on the server library, linked to a dynamic system of PHP where to retrieve the news which are then inserted into the specific models. These models must be created, the databases set up and everything must be integrated into the web site. If they really want to have all the fantasies, they need to spend a little money for development in a professional web agency, more money on things of specific server licenses and integration in their sales even more money for infrastructure, for example a person design the basic models. That being the case, you should probably talk them out of it unless you're a big enough company that has a budget for this. Otherwise, a lot of stuff like these days is available as a preconfigured services (cloud) and if they use a specific software package from SAP, Oracle or other, they will simply have to extend their subscription for access to several of these characteristics and integrate them into their web site. Similarly, store systems often offer features, they just need someoen to install and maintain them in a technical sense. Whatever it is, most of the time this has absolutely nothing to do with the Muse and grabbing just one widget. It's just a lot more complex.

• Before I updated to DC I was able to merge PDF files in I drop.  Now after installing DC looks like I need to pay a subscription, monthly - this true?

  Must I pay a monthly subscription in order to merge PDFs with DC, with I have just installed?

  If you can merge PDF files before, you did not use the free player, but the mist probably Acrobat which I hope that you have not deleted. Make sure you open your files in Acrobat, and you will be able to merge again.

• Standards for guaranteed merge pdf

  Well, the question might be quite basic, but like many others I noticed that it is possible to merge PDFs secured with another program or another tool. My question is: is it ok to merge the secure pdf files, or is it the intention of a pdf secured shouldn't power fusion - as it is not editable?

  Acrobat will merge PDFs secure in a portfolio; He won't do otherwise.

  The standard definines method of security and a degree of expectation. Since the merger of the two documents in a secure delete intrinsically safety since at least one of them, that is not a responsible thing to do.

  It may seem a simple exercise of programming by changing encryption for the first file (for example), but that basically offers an 'easy' option off for security, since if one of the files has cast security, then the user can easily use a document with known security seize unknown security. Many apps does not respect the security, but then many programmers do not buy into the ideas expressed in the standard.
