Word format / style rules to improve the conversion of PDF forms

I remember seeing in a help file guides for people who use Office to adhear to a few simple rules to help when converting to a PDF form.

We have many check list in different bets on the page and by different people with often little or no training or understanding.  (Notepad is complicated for their understanding - but I digress).

Thus, we have checklists / Questions etc. in Word tables or in a document, etc.

There are no guides I can find it recommends no spicific formatting to improve the conversion of Word to PDF format.

For example.

Name: OR name: _______ OR name.    Name the name in a field and the next field empty or _ _ or (_ = Undersore)

So inconsistent as to what is a field and what is NOT...

Then, it is the common problem of the users using "Insert symbol" like a box (how I hate forms of words that are filled with this Jem)

Is there a formatting guide 101, which could help to provide assistance to those who are often responsible for "make a form / check list" so that when these documents are then required to be converted into a form PDF; do not start from scratch.

There must be a document that identified what looks like the PDF Converter in deciding whether or NOT it is a domain!

OH...  And is there a setting that will allow these symbols of checkbox dredded be recognized as a checkbox form?

Thanks in advance.

First of all, when you set up the form in WORD, make sure that the Adobe PDF printer is selected in the menu of the printer so that the provision complies when converting to PDF. That has long been a problem with WORD documents/forms that reflow based on the connected printer.

Acrobat Search essentially everything that seems to be a standard form element (a line of underscores, box or circle) and create a field related to these items. If you leave space, easy to use form tools in Acrobat to create your own fields (or modify those that Acrobat has attempted to add). The key is therefore what would be a normal type of the input in a form field. I'm not sure that the spaces after the colon are recognized as such. I suggest you create a simple shape style in WORD and add a variety of aspects of different shape type to the document and try the conversion. The manual says really nothing more that I mentioned. There are a few tutorials on the creation of the form at Adobe.

You might find these useful tutorials: http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/filter/search&keywords=wizard&channel=tutorials&category = 8 & 86 & tut_type = video-OnDemand-graphics-HTML /. I didn't help much in the present, but they can be useful for you.

  • Effects do not come in the conversion to PDF

    I'm doing some tests with the catalog, I created and must be sure that everything is fine until I send to print.  I have a white background, which the opacity is set to 50%, and when I did the conversion to PDF, the background came to the course.  Is that all I need to know what is printing this document when the effect has been applied to the images?  I send a PDF over to the printer, that's what they prefer.

    Thank you...

    Fill the frame with [paper], and then set the tansparency for filling at 50%, leaving the normal blending mode. :

  • Improve the performance of web form of Hyperion Planning

    Hi all

    I don't know if anyone has tried the method recommended Oracle to compress the forms used in Hyperion Planning to improve the network performance?

    http://download.Oracle.com/docs/CD/E12032_01/doc/EPM.921/html_hp_admin/frameset.htm?/docs/CD/E12032_01/doc/EPM.921/html_hp_admin/hpamin-19-17.htm

    Slow performance when opening data forms using a Dial-Up connection

    Scenario:

    Opening a form of data using a slow network connection (for example, with a modem) takes a long time.

    Solution:

    You can greatly increase the bandwidth network at the opening of the data forms by modifying the web.xml file, as described in this section. This option compresses about 90% of the data stream sent from the planning to the client server.


    Note: If you are using a WebLogic application server (versions all supported) Web, fill the second procedure, which is specific to WebLogic. If you use another Web application server, follow the first, which contains general instructions.


    To modify the web.xml file to improve performance, for any application except WebLogic Web server:

    1 with a text editor, open the web.xml file located in HyperionPlanning.ear or HyperionPlanning.war.

    2 after the tag < / description > and before the < earphone > tag, insert the following lines:


    < filter >
    < filter-name > HspCompressionFilter < / filter name > < filter -.
    Category > com.hyperion.planning.HspCompressionFilter < / class filter >
    < init-param >
    compressionThreshold < param-name > < / param-name >
    < param-value > 2048 < / param-value >
    < / init-param >
    < init-param >
    Debug < param-name > < / param-name > < param-value > 1 < / param-value >
    < / init-param >
    < / filter >
    < filter mapping >
    < filter-name > HspCompressionFilter < / filter-name >
    EnterData.jsp < url-pattern > < / url-pattern >
    < / filter-mapping >

    3. save the web.xml file.


    If you use WebLogic, you must manually change the .ear file and redeploy to the Web application server.


    To improve performance with a WebLogic application server:

    1. unzip the file HyperionPlanning.ear to C\:ear, for example.

    2 unzip Hyperion.war under C:\war C:\ear.

    3 with a text editor, open the C:war\WEB-INF\web.xml file and change using the instructions in step 2 in the previous procedure.

    4 compress the contents of C:\war to C:\ear\HyperionPlanning.war.

    5. compress the content in C:\ear in C:ear\HyperionPlanning.ear

    6. deploy the new HyperionPlanning.ear for the WebLogic Web application server.

    Hello
    Yes we did it with a bank that had branches connected to a server through a dial-up line. They are complaining about the amount of data transferred between the branches and the servers. This has worked well on it and has greatly increased the performance of data transfer. However, nowadays the performance bottlenecks are usually not due to the amount of data transferred on the network, but the javascript components that need to run on the client and heavy computing/data and the report creation process.

    See you soon,.

  • Buttons to change the conversion to PDF

    With the upgrade to CS5 (7.03) my interactive buttons now have a gray retangle behind them when I convert the document to PDF. They look normal when editing in CS5. It's a "arrow" greated in Photoshop Elements file type: .psd. The grey rectangle is the size of the area of the image.  He has not done this in previous versions of InDesign. Thank you, Bill

  • How to prevent the overlap in PDF form?

    I am filling an application for employment with the Veterans Health Administration using their required PDF form. Everything works fine until I reached the "Références" box that contains four lines to enter names and etc. In the 'Address' box section, the data entered in the areas of first and fourth automatically duplicated with the same information. I use a MacBook and save and view the PDF with Adobe Reader. Anyone know how to prevent this duplication?

    Here is the link to the PDF and scroll to page 3: http://www.va.gov/vaforms/medical/pdf/vha-10-2850a-091998-fill.pdf

    This is because the creator of the form named these same fields (probably copy and paste to the other create) and all the fields with the same name will be filled in with the same information (this is required).

    Let them know that they need to change the names of field to be unique (for the time being they are all two '29 b Ref-Address1'). It was probably just an oversight.

    Hi djpzebra,

    To start, try triple click where you want to insert text in the converted Word doc. If this does not work, we have to look closer the PDF file and how it was created (he was born of a scanned document, what application created it and so on).

    Please let us know how it goes.
