Java script is disabled error on PDF

Former Member — Wed, 14 Aug 2013 14:31:18 GMT

Dear Friends

Any offline PDF generated has this error: Java script is currently disabled and this document uses it for some features.

But i have not used any events or script as PDF is a static text document. Please help.

Thanks

Lavanya

Hi Lavanya,

Please check whether the Java Stack is Installed properly in your system.

Hi Lavanya,

Can you create a new dummy form and just place one field on it and run the form and see if still error comes. Open Adobe reader once and check once, if you are able to see 'Javascript' option in 'Edit->preferences> Catogoeries section.

Hi Lavanya,

You have 2 options:

1) Install the latest version of Adobe Reader that is available. In newer versions of the Adobe Reader, JavaScript may be deactivated, but the interactive forms still work.

If you have enabled "Enhanced Security" in the preferences of the Adobe Reader, you may also have to include the host names (including the port number) of your ABAP servers in the list of trusted sites.

2) (not recommended) You activate Acrobat JavaScript in the settings of the Adobe Reader: To do this, you must close all browser windows, start the Adobe Reader separately, and choose "Edit" -> "Preferences" -> "JavaScript" in the menu to activate Acrobat JavaScript.
