View RepliesI have an ASP page, whisch generates dynamic report for a SQL server DB.
Now the users want to have the content in PDF format (not HTML page). The
server machine had "adobe acrobat destiller" installed.
How can I print the content of this ASP page to acrobat PDF destiller and
send PDF file to browser?
I have found that with Adobe LifeCycle Design 7.x, you can save a dynamic PDF that will send xml to the browser when a button is clicked. I'm able to pull the data I need from the xml I'm sent, but I'm not sure how ( after saving this xml to the database ) I can recreate the PDF in a later request.Is there a transform that someone can point me to that will transform this XML to a PDF?

Some one just asked me today about using abobe for fillable web forms. Be honest this is new to me. We normally create web forms using asp or aspx - back-end.
If you have used Adobe for fillable web forms would you tell me the advantages and disadvantages? How does creator receive information after user submitted the form? Can data store in sql? etc.
I'm having some problems with the Reponse.BinaryWrite, IE 6.0 and Adobe Reader 6.0. When I try to write a pdf-file to an IE browser with a Adobe Reader 6.0 installed then it just displays a blank page and the earth on the top rigth corner keeps turning like it haven't read the pdf-file (for 10+ minutes on a lan).
If I change the settings on the Adobe Reader 6.0 to not open in a browser, then it works fine. If I use Mozilla 1.4 then it opens fine as well.It works fine as well with Adobe Reader 5.1. The code looks like this:
[Some code that places the pdf-file in a byte array called vntStream]
Response.Clear
Response.ContentType = "Application/pdf"
Response.BinaryWrite = vntStream
Response.end
I have tried to place a Response.Flush after the BinaryWrite, but it just makes the Adobe plug-in say something like "document corupted".
How can I instantiate an Adobe Distiller object from ASP ? Thank you.
View Replies View Relatedcan the adobe FDF toolkit be used to dynamically create a several page report using data from a recordset in ASP? As far as i can see now, it is only useful for filling in form fields from user submitted data.
Another option we are exploring is using the activePDF tools to do this. Has anyone had any experience with these tools? any comments/opinions? Can it do what we asked above?
I'm playing around with Acrobat at the moment and here's what I need to do.
(1) Have users online fill in a PDF form in Acrobat Reader.
(2) The users Submit it as a "complete PDF".
(3) It is emailed immediately via CDONTS (MS IIS platform).
(4) Users get a thank you message.
I'm currently using an ASP/VBS script for "pure ASP" upload. This script works fine as tested with a standard HTML multipart/form-data form. However, when the PDF is "submitted" the file appears to be lost. ASP can't get hold of it to save it to the server. How on earth do you get this to work?
My required steps are:
(1) Acrobat PDF file submitted.
(2) PDF file saved to disk on the server.
(3) PDF file attached to email and sent.
(4) PDF deleted from server.
(5) Thank you message served to user.
Step (2) is the sticking point! (Or rather, somewhere between steps (1) and (2)!) Everything else when independantly tested is fine.
I have already looked in to the FDF stuff at www.planetpdf.com, but I can't use the FDF Toolkit because I can't get it verified, signed off and installed by IT in time for this project's go live date, so I'm bound in to the route I'm taking!
Can anyone shed any light as to why this isn't working, how Acrobat posts the file (the form enctype) or any other sticking points I haven't thought of. Perhaps I can skip a step and just take the file straight from the buffer to the mail attachment?
