I keep running into issues when creating forms where some barcodes work and others do not. On one form impaticular, I can't seem to get the barcode to be readable at all. I have tried everything from changing the width, height, and quiet space around the barcode. All but two barcodes work on this form and the data is not significantly different between barcodes. The barcodes I am having trouble with are Code 128 with text longer than 6 or 7 characters. Any suggestions?
Unreadable Barcodes
Need Help On Dynamic Barcoding
Hi,
Though I have worked on LiveCycle Designer, I am to totally new to LiveCycle Barcoded Forms ES. I have a requirement of tagging some of the input data fields of a form to dynamically generate the barcode. I need some info to get started.
1. What all licenses are required to encode data dynamically to barcode?
2. For what purpose LiveCycle Barcoded Forms ES is used. Is it used only for decoding?
3. How do we check the successful installation of LiveCycle Barcoded Forms ES? Is it a feature of designer?
4. Is it manadatory to specify the data length when dynamically binding data? Will the data length expand according to input data bound?
Can anyone help me on this to get started?
How to make QR code bigger

Any guesss?
THanks for any answer.
livecycle processing dead in the water
We have a system configured as a vertical cluster (2 jboss instances on a single server using gemfire). In late December node 1 stopped processing files and seemed to interfere with node 2 processing: if node 2 was processing files and node 1 was started, the processing on node 2 would stop, and then when node 1 was stopped the processing on node 2 would resume. No node 2 is dead as well. Just emits messages in the log like:
2013-01-25 14:41:42,582 info [com.adobe.idp.dsc.workmanager.workload.statistic.MemoryStatistic] Memory statistic is 73.0
No amount of restarting, clearing out the stage folders, clearing the LiveCycle temp area, redeploying jboss components seems to unjam the system. Adobe support has been unhelpful to date. Willing to entertain suggestions from the field.

How do you move automatically to the next field of a form after scanning a barcode?
Hi, I have been playing around with a barcode scanner (by the way I dont have a clue) and I've converted a form into a PDF document. I'm trying to move to the next field after the data has been populated in a previous field automatically. I'm not sure if this is done within Adobe Acrobat it self or on the scanner.
The scanner has several different modes, TERMINATION CHAR - CR, TERMINATION - LF, TERMINATION CR+LF and DISABLED.
I believe one of them put a ENT after the data from a barcode and one of the others doesnt. Any ideas?

Barcode Decoding Problems
Hi,
I'm experimenting with the PDF417 Paper Forms Barcodes, trying to determine capacity limits and how to reliably encode form data. Currently I'm seeing an issue where, when filling out my form in Adobe Acrobat Professional some data does not parse out on the backend. The barcodes are still displayed correctly in Acrobat (i.e. not greyed out), but when extracting the data, there are parsing issues. Some of the data comes through correctly, and some is garbled. It is as though a fixed size buffer is being overrun & there is random data corruption as a result.
I'm using data compression on each barcode, and tab delimited data. I can provide examples via email if that is useful. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Tom
Carolina bar code

Form Filling Consuming time after Dynamic Barcode Implementation
Hi,
I am using Paper Forms Barcode to implement dynamic barcoding feature for my LiveCycle developed pdf. I have a requirement of tagging more than 40 data fields to my dynamic barcode. I am applying Reader Extensions for dynamic barcode to work fine. After applying all this, the form responds very slowly every time I fill one field. Whenever I move to another field, the dynamic barcode renders/ refreshes. This is consuming a lot of time. I'm taking nearly 10 minutes to fill a simple form. Can anyone suggest me a solution? Is there any setting available to resolve this?
Thanks and Regards,
Maria
Barcode 128 Char limit
Is there a limit to the number of characters a barcode 128 can hold? I am trying to fit 100 characters into the barcode but it is becoming so long it doesnt fit on the page. If there is another abrcode recommendation for this character length, I would appreciate suggestions.
Decode Compressed 2d Barcode PDF417
Hi All,
I have a form and I'm using a PDF417 barcode to store all XML data.
The form is big and I need to compress data.
That is the part I already did... What I need now is how to uncompress
the data in workbench after I use Decode operation from Barcoded Forms
and save the XML.
After decode I got binary data...
How can I uncompress a compressed PDF417?...
thanks to all
Changing datamatrix properties
Hi,
I am pretty new to Adobe Forms and have the following problem:
I want to change the properties of a datamatrix barcode (it's not a paper form barcode), especially the number of segments. By default only 4 segments are created (at least if the content is not bigger). I tried to change it with a FormCalc-script, but couldn't manage to do it.
This is my code:
Code3.ui.#barcode.dataColumnCount = "1"
Code3.ui.#barcode.dataRowCount = "2"
"Code3" is the name of the barcode, the values are just examples. I played around a lot with these values, but could not see any difference. I inserted the script at different events, all without any change:
initialize
layout:ready
form:ready
Can someone tell me where my mistake is? Or is the change of these properties not supported for datamatrix?
I am using Adobe Livecycle Designer ES2 in an SAP-system.
Best regards,
Daniel
QR Code capacity with fixed rendered size and dynamic data
There's a paper forms barcode and symbology is QR Code, layout is 46mm x 46mm, error correction level is M, module width is 0.592mm, and max capacity is Chinese(UTF8) x 88 or number x 627 or uppercase A x 380 or lowercase a x 263, and QR code renered size is about 30mm x 30mm when max capacity.
So, my question is, if I want to ALWAYS keep this QR code renered size is same as max capacity(30mm x 30mm), but my daya is dynamic and mix numeric, alphanumeric and byte mode, is there any formula to calculate how may character such as space should be appended?
thanks
Sample barcoded form
1. I would appreciate if anyone could provide me with a sample barcoded form created using LiveCycle Designer ES.
2. Once the barcoded form is distributed, completed and returned to the author, how do I decode the barcode using a hand-held scanner to gather the data in the barcode into the Response file.
Thank you.
How do i purchase access to LiveCycle Barcoded Forms?
I am currently creating a form in Adobe Livecycle ES2. I want to put a PDF417 2D barcode on the form containing the data of the fields in the form. The customer should be able to use Adobe reader to fill out the form and the barcode should update with the field information. However to do this i need to purchase a license for LiveCycle Barcoded Forms. In order to get this license it seems that I need to purchase Livecycle reader Extensions ES2. However the product is not available online and when contacting Adobe no one knows how I can purchase this product. I have been in contact with: Adobe customer service Denmark, Adobe support Denmark, Adobe sales Denmark, Adobe customer service Sweden, Adobe Support Sweden, Adobe Sales UK, Adobe support UK, Dustin Denmark (Adobe reseller).
Does anyone know how to purchase this product or how much it costs to purchase?
An additional question i have is if there is a product that works in a similar way for Adobe Acrobat X Pro? Or do i also need Livecycle reader Extensions ES2 to unlock user rights for barcoded forms made with Acrobat X Pro?
How to Define a Dynamic Barcode on a PDF Page?
I have a situation where we have a PDF form with multiple rows, (rows can be added as per the user's requirement), means user can click AddRow button and pdf will generate a new row to fill the data. There is no max limit of the rows, it vary and can be anywhere from row 1..10, 1..100, or 1..50 and so on.....
The first pice of the form is to create table/row with Add Row button has been completed. I have already added the AddRow button functionality into the form, but we also need to point the row's data to the barcode. Each data row should point to a single barcode 1 to 1 bases (One row one barcode). How to implement and design the barcode so that each row will be handled dynamically with one barcode? Or, if there is any better approach to handle this.
I would really appreciate if you could send any document, example or sample.
Thanks!
Barcode not displayed in Adobe Reader
Hello! Friends,
I have designed an adobe form using Livecycle ES3. The objective is to generate bar code after completing the form. Bar code gets generated in Livecycle.
But in Adobe Reader the bar code is generated only when the data is less. When the data is more then instead of bar code a grey bar is shown.
There are about 25 fields in the form. Tried this in Adobe Reader X (also tried in 9 & 8).
Any help/suggestion in this is highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
