Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

Welcome to the LiveCycle world!

If the form is Reader Enabled, then the option to save hte form in Reader should be available. I am not sure why the Save button is disabled. If you look above you will see how you can test to make sure the form is actually enabled.

I do not have a feature map for LC Reader Extensions ES3. Maybe there are some support documents online.

From memory, allowing digital signatures required an additional license; however I cannot be sure. In any case, Adobe’s model changes regularly, so it would be best to contact the Adobe sales team in your area.

You can export the data in XML format and then process this manually or on the server. This would be outside of LC Designer.

Hope that helps,

Niall

Thank you for the above Information it gives me a certain good knowledge, I am new to designer, so i have certain questions,

1.I have designed the form and enabled RE using the ES process, Now I do not see much difference in my form, as in order to save the contents of the form I have to follow a path file> save as, but the save button which should be present in the Top tab would be disabled, I wonder why?

2. How can I know what all features can be enabled to reader when I get an output from a RE ES process? If possible can you give me details steps?

3. Other requirement i have is to enable user to sign in the static form. when i check out my form reader properties it says Signing is enabled, but could not able to implement it… Also I am not sure of the RE process is letting it to permit, As I don’t have sufficient knowledge to enable it, and implement it., Should I have to go for any additional license to enable digital signature?

4. In the form I needed to call the XML content, and the xml is placed in a file system, how shall i implement it?

I know I may be asking lot of questions, but would really appreciate your response on time!, Thank You very much again!.

Regards,
SV

If you are distributing a form using Acrobat, then it will automatically apply the Reader Enabling rights. In any case you can test to see if a form is Reader Enabled by following these steps:

• Open the form in Acrobat.
• Open the JavaScript Console (Control+J).
• Paste this into the console and hit Control+Enter to run it:
  appRightsValidate({}, 2, true);
• If it returns the signature properties, then the form is Reader Enabled.
• Otherwise, if it returns an error, the form is not Reader Enabled.

For example, if the form is Reader Enabled, Acrobat will display the signature properties:

But if the form is not Reader Enabled the JavaScript Console will return an error.

Hope that helps,

The Adobe Help suggests that the usage rights are applied automatically:

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
