Issue
One of the following pop-up messages appears when trying to import or refresh an external PDF form in the Designer:
There was a warning whilst importing the external form. Submit button is missing. PDF Form will be available for display not editing.
or
There was a warning whilst importing the external form. Cancel button is missing. PDF Form will be available for display not editing.
or
There was a warning whilst importing the external form. FormDataTypes text field is missing. PDF Form will be available for display not editing.
If the form is used with a misnamed 'Submit' button, a user may receive an 'Export Form Data As' dialog box when clicking the 'Submit' button. If the form is used with a misnamed 'Cancel' button, nothing happens when the 'Cancel' button is clicked. If the form is used with a misnamed 'FormDataTypes' text field, a user may receive the message 'Object required' when trying to submit the form.
Resolution
Verify that the 'Submit' and 'Cancel' buttons and 'FormDataTypes' text field have been added to the form and are correctly named. See the Web Author's Guide for details.
NOTE: The names for the submit and cancel buttons are incorrect as listed in the e-Work 6.6.2 Web Author's Guide section 2.3.
The correct names are eSubmitButton and eCancelButton. Note the case as these are case-sensitive.
