I will see if I can get you guys a few PDF Forms that we have to support. It may be a while as I will have to work though our support department to get them and remove any company specific / HIPAA data. This much I do know, they are accessing database from within the form to query for data. I also h...

DSSavant

A new request but on the same lines. Will Version 3 be able to support COM object instantiation from within JavaScript. We are migrating a ton of customers off of Acrobat and are finding a ton of forms that are instantiating COM objects to pull data from databases, hit web services, etc. Without COM...

DSSavant

It appears to be fixed. Thank you.

DSSavant

Many thanks.

DSSavant

Stefan,

"next major build". Does that mean 2.5.202 or 3.X? If 2.5.202 then great and thank you as my customers will be able to benefit from the fix very soon.

DSSavant

Please close. I can reproduce this on my box but you cannot. At this point I have a work around and am using it.

DSSavant

Thanks.

Hi guys, just wanted you to know that I've used your PDF Tools and PDF Viewer SDKs. Love the Viewer! Looking at using the print driver now but from what I understand I can only create Temporary Printers. That being said, I need to create one that is there when the user logs in and logs out. I need o...

Will this be in the next build that will coincide with the next Viewer build of 2.5.201? My company uses this functionality on thousands of documents each day. When one of those documents has form fields, things tend to go sideways quickly.

DSSavant

That works for me. Was not sure so I figured I would report it.

Thanks again.

DSSavant

I thought I posted this but apparently not. Using build 2.5.199, hidden form fields do not print. Using build 2.5.200, hidden form fields print. Attached is a PDF that includes hidden form fields that have their visiblity toggled on/off based upon the radio button selected. Reproduction: Load PDF. C...

DSSavant

Just like the title said, when printing popups with replies, the replies are not being printed even if they are shown.

Build 2.5.200.

Not a big deal, would be nice to have.

Attached is a PDF showing the problem. PDF created using Acrobat 9.Something.

DSSavant

Sounds great. I guess I will be releasing my next update in ten days +/- five days.

Thanks again!

DSSavant

Can I get a rough date when 2.5.201 will be available as I need to schedule my product update to coincide with it? 201 has several bug fixes in it that adds a layer of quality and polish to my product. I was hoping for sooner rather than later

DSSavant

As of build 4.0200, this issue remains outstanding. (Using Viewer 2.5.199 and 2.5.200 to test with.) While the Viewer does not blow up when loading the poorly written PDF, it displays Form Fields for pages that no longer exist in the Field Pane. In my latest test on my box, I extracted one page from...

DSSavant

You guys are great. Thanks!

DSSavant · Re: Viewer 2.5.200 Crashes for Drop Downs in secured PDF Thanks!

Thanks!

DSSavant

That works for me. Thanks.

DSSavant

I must admit that from a user's perspective, Adobe LIveCycle Designer is not bad. From a developer's though, it really tanks. I have a PDF where the "CurrentDate" form field is not being set when the document loads in the Tracker viewer. I have tried to examine the PDF to see if it is the ...

DSSavant

No problems John, you guys do a great job. Enjoy the holidays while you can

DSSavant

Sorry to say my QA department found another issue with the Date/Time on Notes and Replies. Basically if you open a PDF with Notes on it and open the Comments Pane you will be able to compare the Date/Time on the Comments Pane with the Popup Notes. If you are lucky they will be the same. Now if you e...

DSSavant

Using both 2.5.199 and 2.5.200, I am able to cause the Viewer to end up in an "infinite 'Select Image' loop". Read below to see what I mean. PDF Attached. Please note the PDF has some security settings though I doubt they are the cause of this issue. Steps to reproduce: 1. Load the Tracker...

DSSavant

When loading a PDF with the following security settings: - Changing the Document - Not Allowed - Document Assembly - Not Allowed - Creation of Template Pages - Not Allowed Version 2.5.200 will crash the viewer. Version 2.5.199 will work as expected. Attached is a PDF that will exhibit the problem. S...

DSSavant

Stefan / Paul, Different in build 200. The behavior has changed. Add an annotation with a note. Open the note if not already open. Write the date/time of the note into the note for later reference. -- click out side of the note and the date/time will change to "now" The date/time will rema...

DSSavant

Thanks, good to know.

DSSavant

Great, thanks.

I have reproduced a memory leak that will quickly kill my application when using medium to large files. Version 2.5.199 Windows 7, 64-bit blah blah blah I use Memory Streams in my application because I do not want anything written to disk. Many of my documents will contain VISA numbers and as such, ...

DSSavant

Great, thanks. I will schedule my update accordingly.

DSSavant

Hate to bug you too much but when are you targeting the next update? The data corruption bug mentioned here is halting me from rolling out my product to my customers -the date/time any user makes an update to a document is audited for legal purposes. If not an official release, can I get a really st...

DSSavant

Thanks Vasyl, I did look at the sample code but was doing something wrong along the way. Having said that, I think I will go with the individual style method as I see that allowing me to "port" my user's settings to version 3 when it releases without issue. Further, I will not have to deal...

DSSavant

Great, thanks. If someone there can ping me when the next build will be available, that would be great. I can then roll a fix out to my customers.

DSSavant

OK, I admit it, I'm not the sharpest nail in the batch ;-) Could I get a C# example on making calls to SaveSettings and LoadSettings using Streams? And as a bonus, could I get an example that shows _just_ saving the tool characteristics as compared to all settings? I would like to save my user's &qu...

DSSavant

I think I will do it via code rather than using a Settings File approach. Thanks Jamie.

DSSavant

Got it, thanks.

DSSavant

Good to hear. Do you know what command do I need to execute in code to accomplish the same results? I embed your viewer in my product thus I have on such UI to assist me in setting exclusive mode. Can I assume that this value is stored in the settings file (SaveSettings/LoadSettings). If so, I can t...

DSSavant

Build 199. This issue deals with users that have become very accustomed to how Acrobat (the evil product) works as compared to the Tracker Viewer. In Acrobat when you select a tool such as the Note tool, you are able to place it on top of a Form Field. Pencil tool as well. Annotations take precedenc...

DSSavant

Using build 199. When adding a popup note, the date/time in the "title bar" will be updated every time you Save or Add A Reply. Steps to reproduce: Add a note. Open the popup note. Notice the date/time and add it into the text area of the note so you can reference it later. Save - notice t...

DSSavant

When a PDF is edited using Acrobat such that Popup Notes are added and Replies are then added to the Popup Notes and then the annotation is Locked (made Read Only), the Tracker Viewer is unable to open and view the Note's Replies. Steps to reproduce: Create a PDF. Don't care how. Using Acrobat --- A...

DSSavant

Is there a way that I can enable spell checking in Notes, Typewriter, etc. tools? I have a customer that has grown accustom to the spell checker in Acrobat.

DSSavant

"Not the highest priority"...

Personally, I would not fix this at all in V2.X

. I would ensure it is not found in Version 3.X though.

DSSavant

Infragistics just let me know that they have figured out the problem. As for fixing this issue, I really don't care as I simply do not use menus with shadows anymore thus no problem. Just passing this on for you guys to know about. From Infragistics: Re: Context Popup Menu freezing application... By...

DSSavant

Just thought I would let you know that it is just now being looked at by Infragistics. Thanks for being so very active on bug fixing!

DSSavant

For what it is worth, I have reproduced it in my application as well. If it is a problem with the demo then it will be a problem with how to embed the viewer control in a WinForm. Let me know if there is a code work around I need to implement.

Thanks.

DSSavant

With the most recent viewer installed on several different machines running both 32/64 bit and using different OS's, if you load a PDF into an application that hosts the PDF Viewer and then repeatedly press Alt and then T (or just about any key), the viewer will lock up after 3 to 10 very fast key r...

DSSavant

Another idea would be for me to install my product into a VM and send it to you. I'm not sure what you can do by remote controlling my box other than watch me play with the viewer for 1 to 5 minutes before it blows up. I'm OK with doing that though if you think it will help. With a VM on the other h...

DSSavant

My QA department tested with 2.5.194 and it blows apart as well. Just FYI.

DSSavant

LOL. If it was that easy, I would have already given you a full project. As it is, if you have a good size server and client, I can give you an install of our product (that was a joke). The problem with using tools is that you weave them into your product such that you can't simply pull a piece out....

DSSavant

I have used the PXCVA_Sync flag in just about every call I'm currently making as my product makes use of heavy thread-pool threading with UI thread transitions. I believe that this has removed a few instability issues I have experienced. One still remains though. The basic flow is to load a PDF from...

DSSavant

LOL, great, thanks.

DSSavant

I just reported a bug dealing with Form Flattening where the Tracker Viewer renders the PDF Right but Acrobat renders it wrong. This is similar but different enough that I figured I should let you know. The same basic issue is occurring with the Typewriter and Text box Tools. To reproduce: Load a PD...
