Render HTML Form ES Update 1

Renders a form created in Designer to an HTML form that is usable within Workspace. You can use this service in a process map or to configure the render service of an xfaForm variable.

It is not recommended that you modify this service directly as it is possible to do so with Workbench. It is recommended that you make a copy of the service, modify it, and then use your copy as a preprocessing step for an xfaForm variable.

Important: Upgrading to LiveCycle ES2.5 leaves the Render HTML Form ES Update 1 service unchanged. If you want to change your ES Update1 render service, then you need to import that service.
Note: In Designer, special form objects must be added to the form before it can be rendered as an HTML form for use with Workspace. For information about how to add a form guide and how to prepare a form for Process Management, see Using LiveCycle Designer ES2 > Creating Forms for LiveCycle Process Management ES2 in the LiveCycle Designer ES2 Help.
Note: For a form design, it is recommended that the guidelines for layout considerations for HTML forms be followed to overcome text shift issues in a rendered HTML form. (See Using LiveCycle Designer ES2 > Creating Forms for LiveCycle Forms ES2 > Creating HTML forms > Layout considerations for HTML forms in the LiveCycle Designer ES2 Help.)
