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 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: Invoking a short-lived process using the Invocation API quick-start-invoking-a-short-lived-process-using-the-invocation-api

The following Java code example invokes a short-lived process named MyApplication/EncryptDocument. Notice that this process is invoked synchronously. The input parameter for this process is named inDoc. The output parameter for this process is named outDoc. The password encrypted PDF document is saved as a PDF file named EncryptLoan.pdf. (See Invoking a short-lived process using the Invocation API.)

 /*
     * This Java Quick Start uses the SOAP mode and contains the following JAR files
     * in the class path:
     * 1. adobe-convertpdf-client.jar
     * 2. adobe-livecycle-client.jar
     * 3. adobe-usermanager-client.jar
     * 4. adobe-utilities.jar
     * 5. jboss-client.jar (use a different JAR file if the Forms Server is not deployed
     * on JBoss)
     * 6. jacorb.jar (use a different JAR file if the Forms Server is not deployed on JBoss)
     * 7. jnp-client.jar (use a different JAR file if the Forms Server is not deployed on JBoss)
     *
     * 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
     *
     * The adobe-utilities.jar file is in the following path:
     * <install directory>/sdk/client-libs/jboss
     *
     * The jboss-client.jar file is in the following path:
     * <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

NOTE
This quick start invokes a AEM Forms process and uploads an unsecure document. To execute this quick start, AEM Forms has to be configured to upload unsecure documents.

Quick Start: Invoking a service using DIME in a .NET project quick-start-invoking-a-service-using-dime-in-a-net-project

The following C# code example invokes a process named MyApplication/EncryptDocument from a Microsoft .NET project using Dime. (See Invoking AEM Forms using Base64 encoding.)

An unsecured PDF document based on a PDF file named map.pdf is passed to the AEM Forms process using DIME. The process returns a password-encrypted PDF document that is saved as a PDF file named mapEncrypt.pdf.

Quick Start: Invoking a service using SwaRef in a Java project quick-start-invoking-a-service-using-swaref-in-a-java-project

The following Java code example invokes a process named MyApplication/EncryptDocument from a Java project. This Java project using proxy classes that were created using JAX-WS and SwaRef as the encoding type. (See Invoking AEM Forms using SwaRef.)

An unsecured PDF document based on a PDF file named Loan.pdf is passed to the AEM Forms process using SwaRef. The encrypted PDF document is saved as a PDF file named EncryptedDocument.pdf.

 /**
     * Ensure that you create Java proxy files that consume
     *theAEM Forms service WSDL. You can use JAX-WS to create
     * the Java proxy files.
     *
     * This Java quick start uses SwaRef to invoke a short-lived process named
     * EncryptDocument. For information, see
     * "Invoking AEM Forms using SwaRef" in Programming with AEM forms.
