Issue

If you are using an evaluation version of Adobe Acrobat Professional with LiveCycle PDF Generator ES, the conversion of various types of files to PDF files may fail after a few conversions.

Solution

To avoid this problem, modify the appmon.global.[locale].xml file and then redeploy the GeneratePDF component as described below.

To modify the appmon.global.[locale].xml file:

  1. Make a backup copy of the [LiveCycle ES install directory]\deploy\adobe-generatepdf-dsc.jar file.
  2. Use a tool such as WinZip or WinRAR to open the adobe-appmondata.jar file, which is located inside the adobe-generatepdf-dsc.jar file.
  3. In the adobe-appmondata.jar file, open the appmon.global.[locale].xml file (for example, appmon.global.en_US.xml) and add the following text as the first entry inside the dialogs tag: 
    <window caption="Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended : Trial Version">  <windowList>   <window className="Button" caption="to use this product on a trial-basis." action="press"/>   <window className="Button" caption="Next" action="press" />  </windowList> </window>
  4. Save the appmon.global.[locale].xml file back into the adobe-appmondata.jar file.
  5. Save the updated adobe-appmondata.jar into the adobe-generatepdf-dsc.jar file.

To redeploy the GeneratePDF component:

  1. Log in to LiveCycle Workbench ES.
  2. Click Window > Show Views > Components. This adds the Components view to Workbench ES.
  3. Right-click the GeneratePDF component and select Stop Component.
  4. When the component has stopped, right-click and select Uninstall Component to remove it.
  5. Right-click the Components icon and select Install Component.
  6. Browse for and select the modified adobe-generatepdf-dsc.jar file and then click Open. Notice that a red square appears next to the GeneratePDF component.
  7. Expand the GeneratePDF component, select Service Descriptors, and then right-click GeneratePDFService and select Activate Service.
  8. In the configuration dialog box, enter applicable configuration values. If you keep these values blank, default configuration values are used.
  9. Right-click GeneratePDF and select Start Component.
  10. Expand Active Services. A green arrow appears next to the service name if it is running. Otherwise, the service is in a stopped state.
  11. If the service is in a stopped state, right-click the service name and select Start Service.
