Types of Layout in Adobe Forms :-

1. Standard Layout :-

• Whenever we want to print our PDF form.
• Whenever we want to email our PDF form, and
• Whenever we don’t want to integrate our form in Web Dynpro at runtime then we should use Standard Layout,

2. ZCI Layout :-

• ZCI stands for Zero Client Installation ( ZCI ) technology.
• We should use this layout when we want to integrate our form at runtime in web Dynpro applications.

3. xACF Layout :-

• It stands for Active component framework technology.
• It is also used to integrate the form at runtime in web Dynpro applications.

Note :-

• For integrating form into web Dynpro applications, ActiveX must be enabled in the browser.

4. Unknown Layout Type :-

• Suppose, we are creating a form or we are editing a form with an older version of SAP Netweaver.
• In that scenario, we will use Unknown layout type.

• Step 5 :- In the Context tab, we can see all our imported data from our Interface, which we created in the previous part.

  
  
  

  
  

  Note :-

  • Also, we can see we have some system variables, that we will get automatically.

    
    
    

    
    

• Step 6 :- Here, whatever we require from interface to our Adobe form, we can simply drag and drop it from the interface.

  • Since, we require the import parameters and global data that, we created in the previous part, so I will simply drag and drop it.

• Step 7 :- Click on layout tab.

  
  
  

  
  

  • We will design our layout here.
