Hi
I am creating the pdf by filling the details in a pdftemplate which is designed through Adobe Live Cycle Designer.

I am using XPAAJ API for processing this template and filling the details.
I am able to fill all static details like name, address, zip etc. I would like know how to fill the dynamic data in it. For example I am having the table element which I created as subform. I would like to fill this table dynamically with n number of rows.

Shall anybody can provide me some sample code for this.

Thanks in advance.

XPAAJ jar is no longer available and supported however, you can take a look at LiveCycle ES at:

http://www.adobe.com/devnet/livecycle/trial/

Here is an excerpt from this page:
"Those customers familiar with XPAAJ will appreciate the new Java libraries which are now part of LiveCycle ES. These Java libraries provide more functionality than before, and allow Java developers to more easily build Java applications that work with PDF documents. Because we are now offering the entire LiveCycle ES suite in a trial version, XPAAJ is no longer available."

In addition, LiveCycle Designer can dynamically add rows to a form table and there is an example of this at:

Hello,
all this information is very useful to me since I am new on forms. I am actually using your way to add rows but this time I need to create a table where I can add or remove rows BUT there is a formula involved that must include the information of the previous row and keep adding new amounts.
Do I need to create a new topic?
Can I send files for you to see them?
Please tell me what to do...

Regards and thank you in advance Lori.
