Hi, I have been met with a strange problem.

I have a form with a 2D barcode. The barcode is a pdf417 barcode and the character encoding is ISO-8859-1.

Often the field data include special characters as Æ – Ø – Å – Ü

Most of the time everyting is fine. But now and then (I guess one in a thousand) it seams that the encodeding of the special characters get wrong. e.i in the form field the data is ”Ørskov” but the barcode data says ”Ãrskov”. I have not been able to reproduce the error in house but I have seen a few on incomming forms in the last 6 month.

Where should I start troubleshooting? Has it anything to do with the client’s version or settings of Adobe Reader?

Is there anything I can do to prevent this error?

Regards,

Kirstine

Hello,

I am developing a process to extract data from a particular type of barcode that may be embedded in PDF documents that we receive.   Files are dropped into a watched folder for processing.

When I set the Batch Size parameter to more than 1, in the hope of improving throughput, we sometimes see errors like the following:

hi

Im trying to add barcode field to my form. In the designer environment all seems ok but when previewing PDF the number below the barcode is cut.

Ive set field margins but it seems to make things worse.

Please see here screen shots that explain it visually.

Any help is appreciated.

I cannot find any reference instructions for adobe x livecycle to add barcodes for code 128 and code 39.  Found a lot of information for 2D, QR Code and DataMatrix barcodes.    I need to generate a barcode for user entered information from 4 fields on the form: invoice number (6 numbers), customer number (6 numbers), branch ID (3 numbers) and document date (mmddyyy).

I have tried many times without success.  There are great step-by-step instructions for 2D barcode but not code 39 or code 128a,b,c.

Can another please help me out.  Point me to a good example or walk me thru how to do this with code 128.

Thank you

David

Hello,

I'd like to appolgize in advance if my question is not clear enough.

I've deployed the LiveCycle ES2 9.0 on WebSphere 7 on a remote Linux Suse server, connecting to Oracle 11g database and I can successfully access the LiveCycle console. The Barcoded Froms components are up and running successfully.

I'm facing a problem using the java API. I've followed the instructions step by step but still i get an error when i run the code.

Here's the error i get in the IDE console:

If there's anything else I should be providing, please just tell me what it is and how i can find it.

Thank you.

As I understand it. If I create form in LiveCycle Designer ES with a Paperforms barcode on it. And then fill in that form with Acrobat Pro capturing a field toe the barcode, print it, the barcode should be able to be decoded if it is uncrompressed? Is the default compressed? Because I have tried to do this and the barcode is not being read by the application (which reads other static 2D barcodes just fine).

Thanks

When creating bar codes in layout view of the LiveCycle Designer code 3 of 9 bar codes objects do not support automatic expansion. You have to manually set the length of the bar code. The bar code fills the predetermined length regardless of content. This prevents you from being able to have a consistent bar code compression ratio. Is there a way to define compression ratio and set the bar code to expand to fit so the length will vary depending on content.

Thanks.

We are attempting to extract data from barcodes in some PDF files using barcodedforms.decoder and are receiving exceptions like the following in the failure.log:

Is this a known problem and is there a workaround available?

Running livecycle ES 9.0.0.0 GM

Thanks,

Noam

Some of the PDF we attempt to search for barcoded data fail with an error like the one below, apparently due to the use of "JBIG2Decode" encoding.  Is this a known problem/limitation?

Thanks,

I need to add a barcode font that I have available in Word. Also have been asked to try the Carolina bar code font. Can you help with: 1) explaining how to add a font to the barcode library and 2) where I can locate additional barcode fonts.

Hi All,

We have a requirement to use multiple barcodes in a form, and that too form is dynamic one. when we extract data out of these barcodes we get the content list (xml list), now is there any straight forwards approach to merge these individual list elements into a single XML which we will be using to re-merge with the form. (currently i am accessing each element as contentlist[0],contentlist[1].... which is not the right approach)

I am setting the format for the barcodes as XML as we need to preserve the hierarchy of the schema.  Can anyone please advise the approach the i need to take in case of handling these multiple barcodes

Thanks in Advance

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?

A software architect at my company found out that you can have data that are entered into fields within a form go automatically into one of these barcodes that you can place either near the field or on a page near the end of the form.  I located the PDF417 barcode within the object library; however, I cannot seem to figure out how you attached field(s) so that the data goes into the barcode.  Is this something that can be accomplished in Livecycle?  If so, how?

Hi there,

we have a problem with barcodes in the print-preview. They are incomplete, means, there is a part of the embedded text and some line at the and of the barcode missing, if we use print-preview in SAP.

If we print directly or we create an email with pdf-attachment, the barcode is ok.

Any suggestions?

Thank you,

Sven

Hi guys,

I want to be able to scan the barcode on my pdf form to auto populate my online electronic medical record system. How can I script the form fields and the barcode to automatically do this when the barcode is scanned?

thanks.

Hi,

is there a way to encrypt form data after the user clicks the 'Submit by Email' button?

how can this be done?

Hi all,

We need a help on Livecycle's Barcode field. Currently we need to insert a barcode into our PDF form. This barcode has 3 portions, and each of them uses a different standard, for example

5 digits of Code 128A + 5 digits of Code 128C + 5 digits of Code 128A or 128B

From the standard Livecycle ES, it only provides Code 128, Code 128A, Code 128B, or Code 128C out-of-the-box component, but not a combination of them. Therefore, is there a way to generate a "combined" barcode?

(P.S. we tried to use 3 components and align them together. However, we couldn't derermine/manage the space between them.)

Thanks a lot in advance!

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?

Hello,

I create proces which read pdf document with barecode. When I

read barecode from Tif file everything is ok. When I read barecode

from pdf file, it return empty mesage.

I create pdf file from pdf form via adobe printer.

If I create pdf via combinate file from acrobat. Decode barecode doesnt

throws an error but decoding never stop (the decode component is green

in recording).

Does anyone know what is wrong?

Does anyone have solution? - I have to use pdf for decode not tif. And

a customer havent generator, so I cant convert pdf->tif.

Thanks Jakub
