• Create a new instance of subform on click of a button

  I need a new instance of the subform:

  assessment. Page3.standards.Standardsdetail

  be created when you click on this button:

  assessment. Page3.addanotherstandard.button1

  I tried this code on the button:

  () xfa.form.assessment.Page3.Standards.Standardsdetail.addInstance

  true );

  but it does not work.

  I am a beginner and I'm learning how to do all this with the help of the book create dynamic with Adobe LiveCycle Designer Forms but I can't seem to understand this one.

  In the subform which is supposed to be repeat you must indicate that you will allow more than one. Click the subform in the hierarchy, and then click the object/link tab, click the box that says subform repeat for each data item.

• Save PDF with unprintable fields

  Hi guys

  I created a PDF with some calculations with adobe acrobat pro (10.1.16). Some fields are visible but unprintable. My problem is, that the functions save as file pdf with the print function doesn't work any more (Mac User).  With this feature, I could save my file in pdf without this fields. Is there another solution to generate a PDF without this unprintable fields?

  Thanks for the help, Elio

  It can be done with a script, but I think you can also do it with the built-in commands. There is a command to show/hide fields and there is a command to execute a menu item where you can select file - save as.

• Cannot save PDF with CD player?

  I'm unable to save any PDF with CD player. The economy icon is removed, and CTRL S does nothing.  Any ideas?

  Is that what you have made changes in registered pdf format previously? If this isn't the case, as Bernd said, Save... as the first. Then, when you make changes, you can use Save.

• script to save .pdf with different presets generates the file size low resolution wildly different interactive operation

  The script below is adapted in part from that has been with Illustrator and other pieces and the pieces that I picked up the Forum.  When I run it on a 15.3 Mg .ai file it produces

  . The same PFS size that would be the case if I manually created at Headquarters printing and by default; but the low-resolution sort option to 9 Mg as opposed to the 439 K he "should" be.

  Please someone be kind advise me how can I change the script to work as I want that: I had counted on my custom screening done the work for me.  Thank you in advance.

• Objective to Focus when add new Instance

  [LC Designer ES2 9.0] With the help of generator of the Action to add a new instance of subform SITE, where the first field is called SiteName.

  If I set the action to put emphasis to SiteName, the focus switches to the * original * SiteName field of instead of the new instance.

  Users must add usually a number of additional sites, and every time, I want to focus on the first field of the most recent instance, not the original instance. How to accomplish this? Thank you!           ~ Carol

• Record of. PDF with repeatable subforms adds a new Instance.

  Hey everybody,

  I have worked with dynamic forms LiveCycle Desinger for a few years now, and this is the first time I see this kind of behavior.

  I have a very big form in LiveCycle Designer. There or 50 subform repeatable sections. I save the designer, and then open it in Adobe Acrobat X Pro. Acrobat Pro, whenever I have re-record it then re-open, a new instance is added to each subform repeatable.

  If I fill it, save it, and then reopen it, he has all my info, as well as a subfrom empty additional below each section.

  I have no formcalc in the presave, nor do I have any global fields in my form... In addition, each single repeatable subform named. I am at a loss.

  I have a sample of this pdf here. If you have a different file hosting site you prefer, do let me know.

  I'd appreciate any help anyone could offer. I don't know what is the cause.

  Hello again everyone,

  I found the answer to my problem. I had a devil of a time from Googling the problem, so I'll put some sentences that I tried below, where like-minded individuals has a similar problem.

  The main problem was with data binding. I had left the data binding for all as the default 'using the name (...) '. I was under the impression that as long as the sibling elements have been appointed to the same thing, there is a conflict. I was wrong.

  In my form, I used static subforms to organize the fields available in a dynamic repeatable subform. The static subform called "sf_positioning". It happens that this field has an uncle named the same thing. It was close enough to provoke a conflict, making the repeatable subform record an additional instance whenever the data has been saved. This can be corrected in one of two directions... ((1) set one of the subforms wrongful use "no data binding" (use this only if the content of the subform is not be exported or merged) or 2) give the subforms of unique names.

  I need to look if everything must be particularly well appointed... As I said, it makes more sense to me that the only restriction should have been on the sibling elements, but I will in the future to make sure there are at least three degrees of separation between just like named controls/subforms.

  Hope that helps someone else...

  And what follows is some of my attempts at Googling the problem. I hope that this will facilitate the solution to find for others:

  -Player which extends shape Dynamics breeze repeating subforms.

  -Economy adds a new instance of the repeatable subform.

  -Whenever I save, I get more empty instances of a subform repeatable.

  -Repeatable subforms not working does not go as planned.

• I can't save my PDF files. When I hit Save as an empty window appears instead of a menu of files or folders Windows Explorer view. I'm a Publisher and save files under new names of files after changing them. Why can't I just save these files in Adobe DC (

  I run Acrobat Professional so that I can change/brand place/comment in the PDF files. At one point recently I noticed "Acrobat Reader DC" in the name of the file at the top of the page. I do not have ask this or do anything to get there that I was aware of this. I adjusted for the new look of the screen and edited several files without incident. But yesterday, I opened a large file which had been addressed to me in Dropbox. When I downloaded and opened it and tried to change it, the selection tool was not aligned properly, so the selected areas were elsewhere on the page, where the cursor was. I restarted my computer and was able to change the file more or less normally (I noticed more little glitches with this CD player but I can live with them). But when tried to save the file with a new file name, like I always do to differentiate files that changed since the original files, the save window is empty. There is no option to save the file with a new file name. In fact. There is no option to save the file with the changes! I thought maybe it was a problem with this file only, but when I tried to edit a file provided by regular e-mail, I met the same problem trying to save to a new file name. What is the relationship between my old Acrobat Professional and Acrobat Reader DC? Why can't save files normally? I managed to save the changes I did by saving it in the cloud to Adobe (I had to then because I could not send the file by e-mail because of its size - I tried to send it to me)., but I'd rather widely navigate in Windows Explorer to work with files. I suspect that there is some simple aspects about what I am simply absent or do not know. Can anyone help?

• After I converted the PDF to Word how to select some pages to save as a new document? Thank you

  After I converted the PDF to Word how to select some pages to save as a new document? Thank you

  You said you have a Word file and use certain pages in the file to create a new document.

  Use Word to create a new Word file that has the pages you want for the original Word file.

  You now have a "new document" desired pages.

  With Acrobat Standard or Pro installed, you can create a 'new document' PDF.

  If you don't have Acrobat Standard or Pro, or a subscription to an Adobe online service that can create PDFS from MS Word, you can use the Microsoft process to create PDF that comes with MS Word.

  Be well...

• Hidden fields are visible in the new instance of the subform.

  Hi all.

  I have the following problem:

  I have a subform with a check box and a text field.  When the box is checked, the text field is visible.  When it is disabled, it is hidden.

  I also have a button which adds another instance of the subform.  When I click and add another subform, the masked text field is visible in the new instance instead of stay hidden until the box is checked.  Also, when I add the new subform instance and select the check box, the hidden field becomes visible at first to the subform.

  Here is what I use to hide and show fields:

  If (this.) RawValue == 1)

  (form1.subform1.textfield1.presence = "visible");

  on the other

  (form1.subform1.textfield.presence = "hidden");

  The foregoing is in the initialize event and change.

  I would really appreciate help to learn how to keep each instance does not affect another, as well as the way to keep the field hidden in newly added instances of the subform.

  Thanks in advance.

  J

  Hello

  You can add the action to the checkbox for the workflow. To do this, you can right click on the checkbox under the hierarchy Panel and then click on 'Add Action '. Also if you want the field to be hiddedn in the new instance and then at design time, you must set the property of as hidden control.

  Steps to get the workflow.

  1. make a right click on the checkbox control--> click Actions--> add an Action

  2. select in the drop-down list. When the check box is cleared.

  3 set the visibility of the textfield to hidden.

  4 click Add new action as indicated below.

  

  5. select in the drop-down list. When the box is checked.

  6 set the visibility of the textfield visible.

  7. click OK to create the action and close the window of action.

  To set the TextField to select hidden textfield and open its property of the object. Set the value of the presence as hidden.

• Problem with Instances of subform at the first opening

  Hi all

  I have a complex form with multiple subforms that I need to have zero cases for the first time the form is opened. Most of these subforms that I put the initial case = 0 on the palette object do exactly this - they behave and open with zero cases! However, I have a subform that always starts with an instance (instance 1 instead of zero cases). I really want to get around this, as I did in the past when it has heppened. I want to solve it.

  I tried

  • Unpack the subform and repacked in a new subform
  • Manual change of the < occur / > element in the XML file for the subform.
  • several times to try different things in the object palette - the check box of the original meter always comes back to disabled and the County empty - I see actually it unchecking itself and removing the '0', just after I go back to Design view of the preview. This occurs even after I manually put the values in the XML file. I recheck the object palette to see that my changes are reflected there (they are) and then he comes back... to the return of the preview, and my < occur / > edit disappears.
  • I looked for the scripts that could be the cause - without a bit of luck.

  I met this kind of thing before and finally abandoned and used the property of 'presence' as a workaround. Subforms not always get used by the user and they should only exist when the user needs them. I plan to export the XML data in this form and exporting a lot of just empty elements presents another problem, I would like to avoid.

  Any suggestions are welcome. I hope that someone knows a solution - I spent too much time on it.

  See you soon,.

  Stephen

  I'm sorry. did you or did you not reproduce this with a simplified version of your form?

  Player will perform the initial design layout as you see in Designer, unless changed via the script at run time.

  I can't reproduce what you ask in a simplified example. I suggest you log a ticket with the help of Adobe Enterprise, so that your form is open to the public (since you can't share in a public place).

• Help me buy a new all-in-one which will scan to pdf with preview multipage

  I need a new all-in-one, like the OfficeJet HP 6700 Premium e-all-in-one printer, which I watched in a store.  The box was not clear about the capabilities.

  What I do with old HP all-in-one on an old XP, (11-12 years) old machine is scanning documents to preview multipage PDF, so I can adjust the margins and other things, and if I did not have many PDF files for a multi-page document.  I do this a LOT, I need, it is not a such PITB.    I have not found a way to do this with the printers I have, my new computer so I have to go do it on a slow XP machine in another room.  I can only print at the old printer to my new computer.

  I'm used to using the HP, but those I have is old, my old XP machine (6 years) so it is more reliable and my new computer Windows 7 Professional 64 - bit, and Windows 7 drivers for my old all-in-one are not full function, if they still exist, plus we have several computers and tablets on our network now.   None of the older all-in-one I will do what I need for my new computer, if they'll even install (you look, Dell).

  What I need to know, it's done with Windows 7 on HP OfficeJet 6700 Premium e-all-in-one printer?  (Scan multipage PDF with the HP software preview.) The info on the box was not clear.  If not, is there a model preferably wireless all-in-one that will work for me?  I can plug it into a USB port on my new computer, there are several USB 2.0 and 3.0 ports.  I would like to be able to print wireless from other devices, but this isn't a deal breaker.  I don't want to have to download a few fragmentary shareware or buy a high price to accomplish what I was able to do with the software before HP, on old all-in-one.

  That's what I needed.  Why hell isn't in the ^ & *) & ^ % manual?
