Error message when attempting to sign/certify a form

$
0
0

Tried posting this in the Forms section and got no responses.

 

At the moment, I am working with Acrobat Professional 8.1.  I've created a number of simple forms in LiveCycle Designer for our department to use, but they have to be certified by our Doc Control department to be released for official use.

 

The Doc Control clerk is using Acrobat Professional X.  When she clicks Sign and Certify, she gets an error message:  "This document contains some constructs which result in dynamic behavior or external dependencies which could affect its appearance.  The document contains rich content that cannot be reliably suppressed. Contact the document author regarding whether you should sign or trust signatures in the document.

If I try to sign and certify, I get a notification that this content exists, but I am still able to apply a signature.  But, of course, I'm the form author.

 

How can we get past this roadblock?

Would it be possible for you to attach a sample (or test) file that is exhibiting this behavior?

Hiding field borders in Designer form based on PDF static artwork

Anyone know the logic behind this?

 

It seems that if you create a form from scratch in LiveCycle Designer ES3, you do have the possibility of setting edges for e.g. text fields to be None - rendering them usable (you can tab to them), but invisible. However, given there is no underlying artwork, you probably would not want this.

 

However, when you are basing a form design on a PDF artwork (e.g. from InDesign) when you are far more likely to want your fields to be 'invisible' - Designer does not allow it.

 

So, if - for example - your PDF artwork contains some great 'graphic' field areas that you want to make fillable in Designer, you seem to have to endure having Designer plonk its own 'lines and squares' on top (not so pretty).

 

This seems an odd state of affairs - it seems obvious that if you are bringing in pre-existing artwork, then in most cases the fields will have been done by the DTP person (to keep the graphic integirty of the design). So, anyone bringing it into Designer would assume that Designer could put interactive fields on top, but as 'see through' fields - just as Acrobat can do.

 

Is there any technical reason why Designer can't do this? Seems a bit weird.

Yeah same thing, set the field as protected.

Apparently not.  I'm not able to upload a file.  Any suggestions?

Re: Dropdown display changes based on user selection in previous dropdown list

Thank you for the post. I am using this script and it works perfectly, but when I am previewing the dropdowns after making a selection I cannot go back and change my selection in the first dropdown. My example is a Human resources form which has Part Time and Seasonal as the picks, the second dropdown displays the employee titles associated with the first dropdown pick. If the user mistakenly chooses the wrong item in the first dropdown I want them to be able to go back and make a different selection. Thank you for your time.

Re: Printing unseen text

Yes that is possible. What you need to do is contain all of the text and the text fields in a subform that is set to Flowed. As the text field grows it will move the other elements contained inside that subform down. If an element is placed outside of that subform it will not move down. You must contain all of the elements within the subform that you set as Flowed.

Try this link. Paul even included a very helpful PDF that shows different ways of handling email submit buttons and also getting custom subject lines added. If you open the PDF in Livecycle you can look at the click events for each and see the scripts Paul is using.

Show Hide dropdown field on selection in another dropdown field

$

Hello I need to create two dropdown fields on a dynamic PDF in LiveCycle. The first field contains three choices. When a user chooses an item in the first dropdown I would like a new dropdown field to been shown. For each item in the first dropdown a new dropdown field with unique values will be shown. If the user chooses Blue the Blue Shades dropdown will show in that dropdown will be various shades of blue to choose for. If Red is chosen, Shades of Red dropdown with appear and if Yellow is shown the same will occur. Also if the user has to go back and change their selection in the first dropdown they can do that as well. Any suggestions?

 

Thank you in advance.

There are 2 ways you could do this. The first is just to have 3 seperate dropdown boxes for the second box and have them all hidden. The exit event of the first dropdown would then have code that would make the appropriate second box become visible, something like (in formcalc):

 

if ($ == 1) then

dropdownRed.presence = "visible"

dropdownBlue.presence = "hidden"

dropdownYellow.presence = "hidden"

elseif ($ == 2) then

dropdownRed.presence = "hidden"

dropdownBlue.presence = "visible"

dropdownYellow.presence = "hidden"

elseif ($ == 3) then

dropdownRed.presence = "hidden"

dropdownBlue.presence = "hidden"

dropdownYellow.presence = "visible"

endif

 

The other option is just to have one dropdown box which dynamically changes its options depending on the results of the first box. So in the preOpen event of the second box you could have something like (in formcalc):

 

if (dropdown1 == 1) then

$.clearItems()

$.setItems("Light red, dark red")

elseif (dropdown1== 2) then

$.clearItems()

$.setItems("light blue, dark blue")

elseif (dropdown1== 3) then

$.clearItems()

$.setItems("light yellow, dark yellow")

endif

Re: Message box with required fields

it is because you are using || which means 'or' for all the conditions so when the first condition is met (null) it doesn't even look at the last one (if the box is checked). You need to use && ('and') for the last condition to make it mandatory in the if statement.

Expanding Field Text w/o Overlap

I recently upgraded my Adobe to VI Pro and with that my LiveCycle was also upgraded. Please note I am not a technical person. With that said for the past 4 days I have been battling the software, reading and watching everything and anything that has to do with my question and I cannot find an answer. I have my form all set. All of my text fields expand perfectly however, the fields overlap each other. I tried to have a "flowing" prime subform and that made the form bunch each category of objects together (i.e. text fields, drop downs, etc.)  and was practically uneditable from there. Does anyone have any easy answer for me, please?

 

I am running Windows 7 Operating system (if that matters)

 

Thanks.
