Form with 2 layout orientation with multi pages for each orientation

0 Kudos

Hi experts.

I want to ask help, I'm still new and learning Adobe Interactive Form.

So I got this requirement, the form got 2 pages orientation, first is portrait (summary page), and the second one is landscape (detail page).

the landscape page should come out only after the portrait page is printed.

The thing is, this portrait page can be multiple pages, and the landscape very much possible to be multiple pages also.

Now, i make 2 master page and 1 body page in the adobe form application (SFP).

Master page MP1 is for portrait orientation, and master page MP2 for landscape orientation.

Body page BP1 consists all the summary information.

And for all the detail info, I put it in master page 2.

(I try to use another body page, BP2, but when i set the pagination place for BP2 to MP2, there is blank page in middle of BP1 and BP2, and when i click the blank page, it says it's the MP2. Because of that, i removed the BP2 and put all the detail data is MP2)

The problem now, when i test run the form, i can only print 2 pages, 1 portrait and 1 landscape (1 page for summary and 1 page for detail).

When actually im testing for more than 2 pages. It doesn't print more pages.

*best case, using 1 body page

*worst case, using 1 body page now

*test using 2 body page

how to solve this issue, experts, please help

Thanks.

i manage to solve it in the end, kind of.

in the end settle for, the first layout only 1 page, and the second layout can be multiple pages.

not really remember how, i can give the XML file for the for if someone wants it.

what i can remember is, make 2 master pages.

1 is portrait, and 1 landscape

make 2 bodypage,

first one is on page 1,

and second is on page 2.

in the object palletes.

set bodypage 1 subform content as "positioned".

and bodypage 2 subform content as "flowed", top to bottom, and allow page break within content.

think thats all.

Thanks.
