Hello,

I am using pdf's created in acrobat professional (6 & 7) and a web app that prefills the form using xfdf.

I make the call from the refering page:
 <http://server/pdf/abc.pdf#FDF=http>://server/app/xfdf.asp?form=abc&key=123

The xfdf.asp generates a xfdf file (based on the adobe spec) bases on database queries.

If I create the form in LiveCycle Designer 7.0 and make this call, it does not prefill.

Does anyone know if this is possible? or if we need to change the #FDF= to something else?

I have tried creating a xml.asp that generates the data in the xml format that designer likes, but because I am using the #FDF I get an invalid FDF data message.

If it is not possible, is there a good tutorial on how to use the wsdl? Also on how to pass a parameter to acrobat so that the wsdl call can have a parameter in it?

-Ted
