Quick Starts in Programming with AEM Forms are based on the Forms Server being deployed on JBoss® Application Server and the Microsoft® Windows operating system. However, if you are using another operating system, such as UNIX®, replace Windows-specific paths with paths that are 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): Assembling a PDF document using the Java API

The following Java code example merges two PDF source documents named map.pdf and directions.pdf into a single PDF document. The name of the single PDF document is AssemblerResultPDF.pdf. The name of the DDX document is shell.xml. (See Programmatically Assembling PDF Documents.)

Quick Start (SOAP mode): Disassembling a PDF document using the Java API

The following Java code example disassembles a PDF document named AssemblerResultPDF.pdf. Notice that the name of the DDX document is shell_disassemble.xml. Each disassembled PDF document is named ResultPDF[Number].pdf. That is, the first disassembled PDF document is named ResultPDF1.pdf.

Quick Start (SOAP mode): Assembling a non-interactive PDF document using the Java API

The following Java code example assembles a non-interactive PDF document. The interactive PDF document that is passed to the Assembler service is named Loan.pdf. Notice that the name of the DDX document is shell_XFA.xml. The non-interactive PDF document is saved as a PDF file named AssembleNonInteractivePDF.pdf. (See Assembling Non-Interactive PDF Documents.)

Quick Start (SOAP mode): Determining whether a document is PDF/A compliant using the Java API

The following Java code example determines whether the input PDF document is PDF/A compliant. The input PDF document that is passed to the Assembler service is named Loan.pdf. The name of the DDX document is shell_PDFA.xml. The XML document that is returned from the Assembler service and specifies whether the input PDF document is PDF/A- compliant, is saved as an XML file named result.xml. For information about the shell_PDFA.xml DDX document used in this code example, see Determining Whether Documents Are PDF/A- Compliant.

Quick Start (SOAP mode): Assembling PDF documents with bookmarks using the Java API

The following Java code example assembles a PDF document that contains bookmarks. The name of the DDX document is bookmarkDDX.xml. The name of the bookmark XML document that describes the bookmarks to add to the PDF document is bookmarks.xml. The result PDF document is saved as a PDF file named AssemblerResultBookmarks.pdf. (See Assembling PDF Documents with Bookmarks.)

Quick Start (SOAP mode): Dynamically creating a DDX document using the Java API

The following Java code example dynamically creates a DDX document that disassembles a PDF document. A new PDF document is created for each level 1 bookmark in the input PDF document. This code example contains two user-defined methods:

createDDX: Creates an org.w3c.dom.Document object that represents the DDX document that is sent to the Assembler service. This user-defined method returns the org.w3c.dom.Document object.
convertDDX: Converts an org.w3c.dom.Document object to a com.adobe.idp.Document object. This method accepts an org.w3c.dom.Document object as an input parameter and returns a com.adobe.idp.Document object.

Both of these methods are invoked in this quick start. (See Dynamically Creating DDX Documents.)

Quick Start (SOAP mode): Assembling multiple XDP fragments using the Java API

The following Java code example assembles XDP fragments that are based on the following XDP files: tuc018_template_flowed.xdp, tuc018_contact.xdp, and* tuc018_patient.xdp*. The assembled XDP document that contains all fragments is saved as an XDP file named AssemblerResultXDP.xdp. (See Assembling Multiple XDP Fragments.)

Quick Start (SOAP mode): Redacting a PDF document using the Java API

The following code example redacts a PDF document using the PDFUtility.

NOTE

The PDFUtility can redact only those PDFs which are marked for redaction using Acrobat.
