AEM Forms operations can be performed using the AEM Forms strongly-typed API and the connection mode should be set to SOAP.

NOTE
Quick Starts located in Programming with AEM forms are based on the Forms Server operating system. However, if you are using another operating system, such as UNIX, replace Windows-specific paths with paths that are supported by the applicable operating system. Likewise, if you are using another J2EE application server, ensure that you specify valid connection properties. See Setting connection properties

Quick Start (SOAP mode): Creating a PDF document using the Java API quick-start-soap-mode-creating-a-pdf-document-using-the-java-api

The following Java code example creates a PDF document named Loan.pdf. This PDF document is based on a form design named Loan.xdp and an XML data file named Loan.xml. The Loan.pdf is written to the C:\Adobe folder located on the J2EE application server hosting AEM Forms, not the client computer. (See Creating PDF Documents.)

Quick Start (SOAP mode): Creating a PDF document based on an application XDP file using the Java API quick-start-soap-mode-creating-a-pdf-document-based-on-an-application-xdp-file-using-the-java-api

The following Java code example creates a PDF document named Loan.pdf. This PDF document is based on a form design named Loan.xdp and an XML data file named Loan.xml. The XDP file is deployed as part of an AEM Forms application named Applications/FormsApplication. Notice that the URI path is repository:///Applications/FormsApplication/1.0/FormsFolder/. The Loan.pdf is written to the C:\Adobe folder located on the J2EE application server hosting AEM Forms, not the client computer. (See Creating PDF Documents.)

NOTE
Before running this quick start, ensure that you create an AEM Forms application named Applications/FormsApplication. Create a folder within the application named FormsFolder and place the XDP file in the folder. For more information, see Generate a PDF document.

Quick Start (SOAP mode): Passing a document located in the Repository to the Output service using the Java API quick-start-soap-mode-passing-a-document-located-in-the-repository-to-the-output-service-using-the-java-api

The following Java code retrieves an XDP file from the Repository and passes it to the Output service within com.adobe.idp.Document instance. The XDP file is deployed as part of a AEM Forms application named Applications/FormsApplication. Notice that the URI path is repository:///Applications/FormsApplication/1.0/FormsFolder/.

NOTE
The Repository API is used to retrieve the XDP file from this location. (See Reading Resources.)

Also notice the content root value repository:///Applications/FormsApplication/1.0/FormsFolder/ is passed to the OutputClient object’s generatePDFOutput2 method (the second parameter). This value is passed to the Output service to inform the Output service that form collateral, such as images, are stored in this location.

NOTE
You can set the content root value in the same way when invoking the generatePrintedOutput2 method.

The Loan.pdf is written to the C:\Adobe folder located on the J2EE application server hosting AEM Forms. (See Passing Documents located in the Repository to the Output Service.)

NOTE
Before running this quick start, ensure that you create a AEM Forms application named Applications/FormsApplication. Create a folder within the application named FormsFolder and place the XDP file in the folder.

Quick Start (SOAP mode): Creating a PDF/A document using the Java API quick-start-soap-mode-creating-a-pdf-a-document-using-the-java-api

The following Java code example creates a PDF/A document named LoanArchive.pdf. This PDF document is based on a form design named Loan.xdp and an XML data file named Loan.xml. The LoanArchive.pdf is written to the C:\Adobe folder located on the J2EE application server hosting AEM Forms, not the client computer. (See Creating PDF/A Documents.)

Quick Start (SOAP mode): Passing documents to the Output Service using the Java API quick-start-soap-mode-passing-documents-to-the-output-service-using-the-java-api

The following Java quick start retrieves the file Loan.xdp from Content Services. This XDP file is located in the space /Company Home/Form Designs. The XDP file is returned in a com.adobe.idp.Document instance. The com.adobe.idp.Document instance is passed to the Output service. The non-interactive form is saved as a PDF file named *Loan.pdf *on the client computer. Because the File URI option is set, the PDF file *Loan.pdf *is also saved on the J2EE application server hosting AEM Forms. (See Passing Documents located in Content Services ES2 to the Output Service.)

Quick Start (SOAP mode): Creating a PDF document based on fragments using the Java API quick-start-soap-mode-creating-a-pdf-document-based-on-fragments-using-the-java-api

The following Java code example creates a PDF document that is based on a form design assembled by the Assembler service. The Assembler service assembles fragments located in multiple XDP files into a single form design. Application logic that invokes the Assembler service is located in a user-defined method named GetFormDesign. The non-interactive form is saved as a PDF file named *Loan.pdf *on the client computer. (See Creating PDF Documents Using Fragments.)

The following Java code example creates two text patterns that the Output service searches for. The first text pattern is Mortgage.

Quick Start (SOAP mode): Transforming a PDF document using the Java API quick-start-soap-mode-transforming-a-pdf-document-using-the-java-api

The following Java code example transforms an interactive PDF document named Loan.pdf to a non-interactive PDF document named NonInteractiveLoan.pdf. (See Flattening PDF Documents.)

 /*
     * This Java Quick Start uses the SOAP mode and contains the following JAR files
     * in the class path:
     * 1. adobe-output-client.jar
     * 2. adobe-livecycle-client.jar
     * 3. adobe-usermanager-client.jar
     * 4. activation.jar (required for SOAP mode)
     * 5. axis.jar (required for SOAP mode)
     * 6. commons-codec-1.3.jar (required for SOAP mode)
     * 7. commons-collections-3.2.jar  (required for SOAP mode)
     * 8. commons-discovery.jar (required for SOAP mode)
     * 9. commons-logging.jar (required for SOAP mode)
     * 10. dom3-xml-apis-2.5.0.jar (required for SOAP mode)
     * 11. jaxen-1.1-beta-9.jar (required for SOAP mode)
     * 12. jaxrpc.jar (required for SOAP mode)
     * 13. log4j.jar (required for SOAP mode)
     * 14. mail.jar (required for SOAP mode)
     * 15. saaj.jar (required for SOAP mode)
     * 16. wsdl4j.jar (required for SOAP mode)
     * 17. xalan.jar (required for SOAP mode)
     * 18. xbean.jar (required for SOAP mode)
     * 19. xercesImpl.jar (required for SOAP mode)
     *
     * The JBoss files must be kept in the jboss\client folder. You can copy the client folder to
     * your local development environment and then include the 3 JBoss JAR files in your class path
     *
     * These JAR files are located in the following path:
     * <install directory>/sdk/client-libs/common
     *
     *
     * <install directory>/jboss/bin/client
     *
     * If you want to invoke a remote forms server instance and there is a
     * firewall between the client application and the server, then it is
     * recommended that you use the SOAP mode. When using the SOAP mode,
     * you have to include additional JAR files located in the following
     * path
     * <install directory>/sdk/client-libs/thirdparty
     *
     * For information about the SOAP
     * mode and the additional JAR files that need to be included,
     * see "Setting connection properties" in Programming
     * with AEM Forms
     *
     * For complete details about the location of the AEM Forms JAR files,
     * see "Including AEM Forms Java library files" in Programming
     * with AEM Forms
