Render Form Guide

invoke operation

Renders a form, created in Designer 8.2, to a form guide, provided that a form guide layout was created using Guide Builder. You can use this service in a process map or to configure the render service, which is a preprocessing step for an xfaForm variable.

It is not recommended that you modify this service directly because it is possible to do so by using Workbench. 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 leaves the Render Form Guide service unchanged. If you want to change your previous render service, then you need to import that service.

invoke operation

Sets the necessary parameters for retrieving the form, specifies the location of the form guide, and invokes the (Deprecated) renderFormGuide operation operation.
