Why there is no TAG, shouldn't the field name exported as tag?

Correct answer Test Screen Name

Use the export firm data function not save as xml

after the message do you see the right hand panel? With More button (no option marked FDF, you can't use FDF with an XFA form)

hi,

In Acrobat DC, I open the PDF (form) > then go to Export > other formats > and choose XML 1.0 . this the same thing I do for all my docs.

LiveCycle is a suite of different apps. The one you would need is LiveCycle Reader Extensions. Price is by negotiation but expect 5-6 figures.

That sounds correct, I havent checked but I wouldn't expect success in Reader -Adobe like to sell Acrobat for form management. Did you read the security notes and check the Quick Bar info in the API reference?. By the way XFA is usually used only for a different kind of form.

exportXFAData:

I tried folder level script, then call from button action

trustedNewDoc = app.trustedFunction( function ()

{

app.alert("folder level");

// Additional code may appear above

app.beginPriv(); // Explicitly raise privilege

this.exportXFAData({bXDP: false})

app.endPriv();

// Additional code may appear below.

})

same error when run from reader............

That "F" in the table at the top stands for "Requires forms rights". This is a bit vague, but it's not the kind of rights you can apply with Acrobat. They are special rights that can only be applied using one of the LiveCycle applications. Without it, this method won't work in Reader.

Also, start by exporting in the user interface so you are familiar with the choices and result. You probably want the format "xfdf".

I got

this.exportXFAData({bXDP: false})

works in acrobat to save form data as xml.

But when i run using Adobe Reader, I got this error:

"NotAllowedError: Security settings prevent access to this property or method."

Any idea???

It's something starting export in the document object I think. Check the API reference.
