Procedure documentationConfiguring the Destination URL for the Adobe Document Services Use

 

With the InteractiveForm UI element you can design and create interactive PDF forms. To do this you need the Adobe document services. These services are installed as Web services on a Java Engine and have the destination URL as default

Recommendation Recommendation

We recommend that you install the Adobe document services on the Java Engine on which the Web Dynpro runtime environment is deployed. In this case the default settings for the destination URL are copied from the Adobe document services.

End of the recommendation.

If the Adobe document services are not provided on the Java Engine on which the Web Dynpro runtime environment is deployed, you must change the destination URL of the Adobe document services.
