possibility to buy LiveCycle Designer ES2?
My company needs to edit our existing LiveCycle Forms, but they are in the old format ES2 and open forms in the ES4, but some the workflow scripts are not visible in the ES4. According to what I read, the former XFA forms must be converted to make the changes I need to do, and it is not possible for us. Is it possible to get the ES2 somehow? I searched, and yesterday, I swore there is a link to contact Adobe for previous versions of LiveCycle, but I can't find it now. Thanks in advance!
Thanks for the reply. I was able to download Acrobat X Pro, but ES2 seemed not to be included. BUT, you led me to the answer... ES2 is included in Acrobat X Suite
Thank you so much - you saved me a ton of headaches!

Hello
I intend to recommend adobe LiveCycle Designer ES2 as a software designer of forms for a client company. But it seems that the client always uses the old version of adobe reader 7.0.
So I need to know that it is essential to use the adobe reader 9.0 for designer ES2 software and if Adobe reader 7.0, this problem would happen?
It is very useful, if there is detailed information on this subject.
Thank you

Hello
When you design a form in LC Designer ES2, you can set the version target of Acrobat/Reader software in the file > properties > default values tab.
While you can target v7, be aware that some features in LC Designer ES2 is not supported in Reader v7. For example in LC Designer, you can define the presence of an object "(screen visible only)", but it is not supported in Reader v7, so would cause a problem. So for each form you will need to set the version of the target, and then check the warnings palette to see if there are problems.
See the post by John Brinkman discussing Acrobat X, as it's a very handy table for the versions of the specification of the designer/XFA LC and Acrobat/Reader: Acrobat X and XFA 3.3
XFA Version Acrobat/Reader 2.1 6.02 2.2 7.0 2.3 7.0.1 7.02 2.4 7.0.5, 7.0.7 2.5 8.0 2.6 8.1, 8.1.1 2.8 9.0 3.0 9.1, 9.2, 9.3 3.3 10.0 You can see there are a lot of changes around v7 and if the user has v7.0.7 Reader, you can use the features of 2.4 XFA specification.
The other question to know is that users with the player will NOT be able to save data in the form, UNLESS the form has been enabled for reader until the form is deployed.
The form can be active player in two ways:
- Using Acrobat Standard v9 or Acrobat Professional v7 or v8. A license restrictions, see the EULA.
- With the help of a server product called Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions ES2. Extra charge.
Here is a summary of the options available for users with the player, depending on whether the form is activated to drive AND how she has been activated:
There is a post here and a summary in PDF:

LiveCycle Designer ES2 - validation model and limited length: max tanks
I am new to the use of LiveCycle Forms of design. This seems like it should be a very simple thing, but I'm stuck on how to do it.
I have a postal Code field. It is located at Zip and Zip + 4 display and Validation of models. The Validation model is text {99999} | text 999999999 {}.
I have a script that stops at the entrance of alpha characters. I also want to prevent users from entering more than 9 characters. I think that the
Length limit: Max tanks: feature would take care of that... but it's not. I can't turn on the limit length because I get a warning that conflict
with my boss. Makes no sense for me because my boss has a maximum of 9 numbers and I want my length limit for a maximum of 9 characters.
I know that I can use schema validation to provide an error message warning that indicates a user to enter the numbers 5 or 9, but why can't I've just stop them at 9?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you!
Hello
It does not always seem to work, you get just an annoying warning at design time.
If you use a numeric field, then you might have the code in the change event to limit the length, and in this way they would be able to type alphanumeric characters either.
newValue var = parseInt (xfa.event.newText, 10);
If (isNaN (newValue) | newValue < 0="" ||="" newvalue=""> 999999999)
{
XFA. Event.change = "";
}
You then have the code in the validate event to test a value in both sectors.

LiveCycle Designer ES2 Software
The designer used to be shipped with Acrobat Pro, but with the new Acrobat X, I don't see any mention of the designer under the Version '(features) comparison' here - http://www.Adobe.com/products/acrobatpro/buying-guide.html
Designer come with Acrobat X? Thank you.
Hi Jacob,
I can't say for sure, 100% that I have not updated.
However if you go here: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/matrix.html
It seems to indicate that Acrobat X Pro for Windows and Acrobat X Suite for Windows have included LC Designer.
I tried to upload screenshots, but can't!

LiveCycle Designer ES2 save some changes not retained after scripts
Hello
I have some text field names that are modified by Javascript in some click events. These renowned fields are used for navigation in conjunction with xfa.form.resolveNode and everything works perfectly until the form is saved and reopened.
After you open the saved form, all entered data are retained, but new domain names have not been preserved and resolveNode returns a null value.
'Changes Preserve to form when recording scripts' are set to 'Automatically' in the properties of the form.
Ideas or comments?
Thank you
Ron
Hi Ron,
I don't think you will get it works. I suspect that, when the form is reopened the template DOM contains the original name of the text field and this is used when the form is rendered.
You could test this with a temporary button's click event:
console.println("Textfield name BEFORE remerge: " + TextField.name); xfa.form.remerge(); console.println("Textfield name AFTER remerge: " + TextField.name);
You would click it ONCE your other script has changed the name of the text field. You will also need to open the JavaScript Console (control + J) to see the results.
Good luck

PDF of LiveCycle Designer file size
Hello.
I have installed trial of LiveCycle Designer ES2 (v9.0.0.0.2009...). I created a seemingly simple PDF form, but the file size is greater than 1 MB. Is it "normal"? It seems like it might / should be only a few hundred KB, if that.
Hi Srini,
This bug has been fixed in a previous version, so shouldn't be a problem in the ES2.
One thing to keep in mind is that by default LC Designer incorporates fonts in a form (see file > form properties > Save Options). This does not add too much to a form, if you use an efficient police force such as Myriad Pro. However, if you use other fonts, such as Times New Roman, then this can add several hundred KB.
Also if you use images in the form, then uncheck the embed images in the object > field palette. The image will still be available when the user opens the form in Acrobat/Reader, but will be more effective.
Hope that helps,
Niall

Is LiveCycle Designer ARE 8.2 LiveCycle ES2 or SS1?
Hello
I am confused with all the conventions of release of LiveCycle.
Is LiveCycle Designer ARE 8.2 LiveCycle ES2 or SS1?
I use ES8.2 of Designer. I manually added some PDF XDP form metadata in the XML Source tab. After the XDP form gets static redendered PDF XFA or dynamic XFA PDF, the PDF metadata I've added manually are lost. I was told there is a fault known with LiveCycle ES1 and it has been fixed in the ES2. So, ask yourself if'RE 8.2 either ES1 ES2?
Thank you!

Acrobat Pro XI - LiveCycle Designer is not available
Our company has been previously using Acrobat X Pro and we have since upgraded to Acrobat Pro XI. What options are available to allow me to change to LiveCycle designer files created by Pro X?
Hello
We had a similar problem. As it is no longer ships with Acrobat, if you meet certain criteria, you can get a free upgrade.
https://helpx.Adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/upgrade-LiveCycle-Designer-Acrobat-XI.h tml
I have read this page and assumed that we could just recover again. For now, our COMPUTER support is in discussion with Adobe - not course that it is.
If all goes well, you might have more luck.
In the meantime, we ended up back Acrobat X Pro on some PCs so we can continue using LiveCycle, but he is not happy and keeps asking us to save it.
LiveCycle is now a separate program:
Complete design of ES4 designer tools | Adobe LiveCycle Enterprise Suite 4
We said that it's very different from the ES2, so we will have to test it before committing to buy the new version anyway.
Good luck

Mac version of LiveCycle Designer?
I'm sorry, I know this has been asked before but I can't find a clear answer.
Y at - it a Mac of LiveCycle Designer version?
Our office is upgrading to CS5 Design Premium. If we buy the Mac version, we have LiveCycle Designer? (included with Acrobat 9 Pro?)
It seems that the forum users say no, but two representatives from Adobe told me Yes. I don't know who to believe.
Thank you
Hello
No joy!
When LS Designer comes with Acrobat, it ONLY comes with the version of Windows.
As far as I know, LC Designer is not available for the Mac, as the context Enterprise Suite is a solution for Windows.
I have CS5 Design Premium for Mac and there no LC Designer. I have a standalone Acrobat 9 Pro Extended for Windows and there is no bundled LC Designer.
One last point: in the future versions LC Designer is not available as a stand-alone purchase. See http://forms.stefcameron.com/2010/01/14/purchase-designer-es2-upgrade/
Good luck

I now have a computer with Windows XP and wanted to buy a new computer. All new computers come with Windows 7. Is it possible to buy a new computer with Windows XP (or buy one with Windows 7 and remove it and install Windows XP)? I like XP and have talked to people who are not really happy with Windows7 and holds XP back. AND I also discovered that my printer is not compatible with Windows 7 - it is not that I love him and want to keep it. I can't afford to buy a new computer AND printer, since I have been unemployed for more than 2-1/2 years. I would like to use XP on a new computer! I would appreciate it if you could let me know what is possible or if I'm stuck with my old computer. Thank you very much!
Probably not, you will find a computer with XP on it.
If you buy a computer with Windows 7, you will first need to know if it would be compatible with Windows XP. Probably not, because they are not designed for XP and drivers are not available.
Unless you want to spend the time, you're stuck with your old computer.

How to get LiveCycle Designer 4?
Last year, I downloaded a trial version of LiveCycle Designer.
I liked it.
So we bought 4 licenses.
Now I need to have my PC reconfigured.
LiveCycle will go bye-bye.
I need to re - install.
But there is not more than the trial download available.
We purchased licenses and no CD Adobe because said us that we needed only the licenses.
But now all my licenses does me no good if I don't have the product itself, I won't go after the new image (and no, I don't always have the download for a year, or don't I even think I would have kept it)
So now that the trial is gone and the possibility to download a copy, on which apply my license, how the hell I'm supposed to do?
Thank you
Just download Designer Forms AEM. License keys are compatible.
