2. Re: Filename in XFDF - Acrobat 9?
anaghad Aug 25, 2009 5:24 AM (in response to lrosenth)Hi Leonard,
You mean to say, we can specify this parameter to 'submitForm' javascript method of Acrobat 9??
The problem I am facing is, the XFDF that i get in Acrobat 9 does not have 'f href' element, so that PDF is not getting opened.
Whereas, the XFDF submitted in Acrobat 7 Pro works all fine.
Please explain.

4. Re: Filename in XFDF - Acrobat 9?
nathanhood222 Sep 20, 2009 6:37 PM (in response to lrosenth)Just revisiting on this topic and hoping for some assistance.
We are currently generating .xfdf xml form files and they are using <f href=filename.pdf>
This works fine when superimposing the data in the form onto PDF's using Adobe Reader 8 and lower but with version 9, when the client opens the .xfdf file the .pdf file for the form does not load for the aforementioned reason in the previous posts and therefore the user cannot view the document with the XML data superimposed on the PDF.
I would prefer not to have to roll users back to Adobe Reader version 8 to make these forms work so I was wondering, can the code eg. <f href=filename.pdf> be changed to be compatible with Adobe Reader 9 as well as backwards compatible with versions 8 and lower and so forth. If this can be done, how does the link need to be coded?
Thanks in advance

lrosenth Sep 21, 2009 7:40 AM (in response to nathanhood222)Why not move to server-side merging? It's a MUCH MORE reliable and
compatible method?
