Adobe LiveCycle Designer Feature introduction:

1. Distribution form

Once the form has been designed in LiveCycle Designer, the "Acrobat Distribution" feature can be used to send the form to a group of recipients to fill out.The "Distribute" feature allows you to send a set of instructions on how to fill out the form at the same time as you send it, and after the recipient has filled out the form, they can click the "Submit" button on the form, and the form will be returned to you with the data.

2. Spell Checker

The new spell checker allows you to check the spelling of text when performing a global spell check or when completing a form design, plus the spelling options to select items in spell checking and the table of contents to use.

3. Combo box field

Use the combo box format when you want to separate characters and numbers added to decimal and numeric fields.In a combo box field, each letter in the field is separated by a black vertical line that runs through the upper and lower boundaries of the field.

4. Domain Editor

You can now edit objects in your form design using the Field Editor, which provides the easiest way to access common properties, launched from the View menu.

5. Generate test data

Now you can generate sample data to preview and test your form without creating a sample data file.If the form contains repeating subforms or subform groups, you can specify the number of times the data is repeated when previewing the form.Set the test data in the Defaults tab of the Form Properties dialog.

6. Data connections to non-native XML schemas

You can now create an XML Schema data connection with a schema that is not in your local system. When you create a new data connection, you enter the URL to the XML Schema file. When you load the schema, it matches your local system'sArchitecture works the same way.

7. Import template

You can now import template files (TDS) into Template Manager.When you import a template, a copy is automatically added to the templates folder specified by the form XML source code, or to a folder named "Imported" if no location is specified.After importing the template, you can create new forms based on the template or edit the template.

8. Custom template

Templates installed with LiveCycle Designer contain text and images that you can replace with your company name, address, phone number, and logo.When you create a form from a template that contains customizable text or image fields, the New Form Assistant wizard opens, allowing you to change the information displayed in each field to suit your own needs.

9. Copy cells from spreadsheet

You can drag cells directly from the spreadsheet to LiveCycle Designer.From a selected cell in a spreadsheet, LiveCycle Designer creates a table object with the same size and content.Formatting is preserved as much as possible, as are empty cells in tables that contain text fields.If the original section contained column headers, they are preserved as header rows.
