XMP Utilities Service Java API Quick Start (SOAP) xmp-utilities-service-java-apiquick-start-soap

The following Quick Starts are available for the XMP Utilities service.

Quick Start (SOAP mode): Exporting XMP metadata using the Java API

Quick Start (SOAP mode): Importing XMP metadata using the Java API

AEM Forms operations can be performed using the AEM Forms strongly typed API and the connection mode should be set to SOAP.

NOTE
Quick starts in Programming with AEM forms are based on the Forms server if you are using another operating system, such as UNIX, replace windows-specific paths with paths supported by the applicable operating system. Likewise, if you are using another J2EE application server, ensure that you specify valid connection properties. See Setting connection properties.

Quick Start (SOAP mode): Exporting XMP metadata using the Java API quick-start-soap-mode-exporting-xmp-metadata-using-the-java-api

The following code example retrieves, inspects, and saves XMP metadata. (See Exporting Metadata from PDF Documents.)

     * This Java Quick Start uses the following JAR files
     * 1. adobe-pdfutility-client.jar
     * 2. adobe-livecycle-client.jar
     * 3. adobe-usermanager-client.jar
    * 4. activation.jar (required for SOAP mode)
    * 5. axis.jar (required for SOAP mode)
    * 6. commons-codec-1.3.jar (required for SOAP mode)
    * 7. commons-collections-3.2.jar  (required for SOAP mode)
    * 8. commons-discovery.jar (required for SOAP mode)
    * 9. commons-logging.jar (required for SOAP mode)
    * 10. dom3-xml-apis-2.5.0.jar (required for SOAP mode)
    * 11. jaxen-1.1-beta-9.jar (required for SOAP mode)
    * 12. jaxrpc.jar (required for SOAP mode)
    * 13. log4j.jar (required for SOAP mode)
    * 14. mail.jar (required for SOAP mode)
    * 15. saaj.jar (required for SOAP mode)
    * 16. wsdl4j.jar (required for SOAP mode)
    * 17. xalan.jar (required for SOAP mode)
    * 18. xbean.jar (required for SOAP mode)
    * 19. xercesImpl.jar (required for SOAP mode)
     *
     * The JBoss files must be kept in the jboss\client folder. You can copy the client folder to
     * your local development environment and then include the 3 JBoss JAR files in your class path
     *
     * These JAR files are in the following path:
     * <install directory>/sdk/client-libs/common
     *
     *
     * <install directory>/jboss/bin/client
     *
     * If you want to invoke a remote Forms Server instance and there is a
     * firewall between the client application and the server, then it is
     * recommended that you use the SOAP mode. When using the SOAP mode,
     * you have to include additional JAR files in the following
     * path
     * <install directory>/sdk/client-libs/thirdparty
     *
     * For information about the SOAP
     * mode and the additional JAR files that need to be included,
     * see "Setting connection properties" in Programming
     * with AEM Forms
     *
     * For complete details about the location of the AEM Forms JAR files,
     * see "Including AEM Forms Java library files" in Programming
     * with AEM Forms

Quick Start (SOAP mode): Importing XMP metadata using the Java API quick-start-soap-mode-importing-xmp-metadata-using-the-java-api

The following code example imports XMP metadata and saves the new PDF file to disk. The PDF document is based on a PDF file named Loan.pdf. The XML document that contains the metadata to import into the PDF document is based on an XML file named LoanMetaData.xml. For information about this XML file, see Importing Metadata into PDF Documents.
