importXFAData stopped working with latest Acrobat Pro DC update
Using PDF XFA forms created with Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES4. Data stored in a Microsoft Access database is converted to an XML file and then imported into a blank PDF XFA form using importXFAData. My workgroup has been using this feature for over three years with huge success/satisfaction. With the recent update, the xml import stopped working leaving the PDF form fields blank. Any work around or update planned?

Slider control field
Just like text boxes, check boxes, dropdown lists, etc are available controls to add to a form, it would be great to have a slider control as well. This control should be able to be horizontal or vertical, specify the default location of the slider, specify min and max values for a 0 - 100 percentage of the slider and assign a value to the percentage starting at the min to the max (IE 0% of the slider could be a value of 0 and a value of 100% could be 500 and a value of 50% would be 250…

Creating fillable PDF (Prepare form) - add image compatible with Mac Preview
I am creating a fillable PDF and the users need to be able to add an image. I tried using "Add an Image Field" with Prepare Form, but the users are unable to add the image when they open the PDF in Mac Preview. Most of our clients use Mac Preview to open and fill PDFs we need to make this compatible!

Option to toggle Form Field Highlight on/off at document level
Please provide an option to disable the blue form field highlighting for a particular pdf form, rather than expecting all users to change this in their preferences. It is frustrating to design a form (in either InDesign or Acrobat Pro DC), then preview the form and discover blue highlighting everywhere. Changing the preferences only changes it for one user not all users who open the file. For a plain B&W form, the blue highlighting may look fine but for a more custom form, it often ruins the design - this is very limiting, please give the form designer more flexibility…

disable the comma typing
I created a form and needed to disable the comma typing, because when I sent the pdf to another computer that didn't have Adobe, the sum field gave an error due to the comma. For some reason, he interpreted the comma as if it were a zero, so the sum went super wrong.

date picker
I have created a pdf fillable form and the date picker and the signature box only work when I open with Acrobat. Do these not work in Chrome or Edge? I don't want people to have to use special software to fill in the form.

Can we open a PDF file like a code file, the way we used to open our code file in gvim
Can we open a PDF file like a code file, the way we used to open our code file in gvim ie same file can be open in two/three tabs. (like seeing function decl. & it's call?) This would be very useful to read in a large PDF file, such as reading a sub chapter on page number 50 and referencing page number 225 for further explanation.

Reader 2021.001.20138 suddenly running form javascripts incredibly slowly and freezing
A complex form that ran fine under older versions of reader, is now intermittently running some of the onboard javascripts incredibly slowly and appearing to the user as freezing (Not Responding).
This does not always occur, and occurs during different operations (using different document level scripts).
I am using Windows 10 Pro 19041.804 (most recent) and have experienced it on Reader 2021.001.20138 32bit and 64bit versions.2 votes -

BUG: Fillable Date Format (Auto-Conversion BROKEN)
When a valid date is entered using a format different from the format specified by the form date field, Acrobat automatically converts this to the specified format on-screen. However the saved data remains in the originally-entered (incorrect) format.
Example: Field Name: "DateOfBirth" Format: mm/dd/yyyy
Entered: "12 Aug 2002" Form displays: "08/12/2002" following entry
It APPEARS the date was converted to the specified format.
Export Data saves this as: ... <</T(DateOfBirth)/V(12 Aug 2002)>> ...
This indicates the original entry was saved, not the converted date.
This SHOULD be saved as: ... <</T(DateOfBirth)/V(03/12/2002)>> ...
When returning to the DateOfBirth field the display…

Why did Adobe cancel Livecycle designer?
For many years i was developing Livecycle Forms for SMB . Why did Adobe cancel the product?
Has anyone ever thought about how big the market is for i.e. handymens etc. to use dynamic formulars in their business? But they cannot afford an AEM license with server components etc.! It seems to be a very short termed look. Everyone is talking about digitalization. But noone seemed to have done an analysis of market segments and opportunities. The world consists of more than banks and world market players. Thx for any feedback.2 votes -

Bug: Incorrect number format options for form fields - missing thousand and decimal separator options
Mac OSX, Adobe Acrobat PRO DC (Build: 20.9.20067.384717)
I am working on improving some pdfs at work, in one of these there are two fields for the user to input numbers (currency), but the field type number does not include any format that is correct way of formatting numbers in Norway.
I need the thousand separator to be space and the decimal separator to be comma, the only options in the form field settings is
1.123,10
1,123.10
1123,10
1123.10
1'123.10
not the one I need, and that is correctly format for most numbers in Norway (expected result):
1 123,10Instead…
