adobe - Updating a PDF Barcode Field -


i have existing pdf template have edit. know pretty nothing messing pdfs (fair warning). there standard barcode customer wants changed data matrix barcode.

what in pdf template right now:

current barcode

so far, have following:

  1. open pdf template (opens in adobe acrobat pro)
  2. go tools > forms > edit in designer. opens pdf in livecycle designer.
  3. right click on on barcode , go palettes > object. opens object tab barcode.

now, looks there drop down edit barcode type. it's disabled, , don't know why.

disabled dropdown

the option right click on barcode , select change object type disabled.

does know how edit barcode type data matrix?

update not want have re-create barcode. want edit there. not add , remove.

ok, managed find solution. @ top of livecycle, had 2 tabs.

original tabs

if right click on gray space next tabs, can choose "xml source", makes new tab appear.

new tabs

in "design view" tab, clicked on bar code wanted change (so selected). clicked on "xml source" tab. takes directly bar code code, looked following (note removed attributes , tags , replaced them ...)

<field ...>     <ul>         <barcode type="code128" ... />     </ul>     ... </field> 

that type attribute on barcode tag needed changed datamatrix, , barcode updated correct type.

note: had modify heights of fields, etc. pretty self explanatory.
