msg "Wrong type parameter supplied to a PDS procedure" pop-up when making "Accessibility-Full Check"

[george0022]

Hello,

When I opened a PDF in "Adobe Acrobat X", and then perform the "Full Check" in the "Accessibility" tool.

A pop-up window is shown and keep all default setting, and then I click the "Start Checking" button.

After that, the "Adobe Acrobat X" pop up the Warning message Windows with the message "Wrong type parameter supplied to a PDS procedure".

The PDF file was made by the "Adobe LiveCycle Designer".

However, this warning message is not appeared when I use "Adobe Acrobat XI".

Do you know the reason and any solution to resolve it?

Thanks!!

Regards,

George Lee

HI George,

This error message usually comes up when the XML structure is no longer valid, i.e. it has been edited manually. So when you run the accessibility check on the document using Acrobat the XML stucture gets invalid.

Solution

Open and save the form in Designer, then it will correct any problems in the XML source, and work fine in PDF Preview.

Let me know if you have any other question

Hi Parnav,

I got the solution from adobe web site before. But the PDF was not include "xml".

Do you suggest how to verify it in Designer or Acrobat Pro. and how to remove it if any xml included?

Thanks!!

Hi George,

If the PDF is created via LC Designer as you mentioned above then it contains XML. LC designer creates the PDF with XFA architecure(XML Form acrchitecture)

You cannot remove the XML until you reprint the form using Adobe PDF printer in Acrobat however then form would lose the interactivity.

Hope this helps.

Same here.

The easiest workaround is to split the PDF into single pages, by using a different PDF editor, because the PDS problem will prevent Adobe Acrobat from splitting it; and then to reunite the single PDF pages again into a single document. This latter task can be done with Adobe Acrobat. Tiresome, but works.
