[jeffcad]

Hi, I have a pdf build with livecycle, and i have set the limit text length to visible area, but when i open it in pdf viewer it donsn't take the limit and i can write as long as i want, is there something i can do to correct this?

Hi Jeff,

could you post an example please - must be zipped or the forum will remove it from your post.

thanks

If the form was created by livecycle, most likely it will be in XFA format, and the viewer doesn't yet support XFA forms. We are planning to implement basic support of such forms into build 42 of the viewer.

Hi Jeff,

can you use the option - 'Help -> Report a Problem' and provide a sample with a link back to this forum post in the Body and we will take a look?

Thanks

I have PDFs that were created by Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2 and none of them will open in the viewer. I am on Version 2 (Build 42.2). When I attempt to open one of the PDFs I get a PDF-XChange message box reading "This PDF form requires a newer version of Adobe Acrobat. Without a newer version, the form may be displayed, but it might not work properly. Some form elements might not be visible at all. If an internet connection is available, clicking OK will download and install the latest version."

When I press OK I just see a page that says "Please wait..." and the PDF is never displayed. I have Adobe Reader 9.1.0 installed which displays the form fine. Has the basic support been implemented in this version yet? If so, does my form utilize something you will not be supporting? I have attached the PDF in a zip file.

Thanks,
Damon
