*** We are aware that an Adobe Acrobat serial number was terminated today (March 3, 2022). The Adobe Acrobat serial number has since been reactivated with a grace period of 30 days (until April 3, 2022). Admins need to either migrate their serial number or reapply the old serial number (expires April 3, 2022). If deployed on a server please refresh the server. If you prefer to use the serial number, please obtain the most current serial number, and follow these steps to generate a new prov.xml file and apply the new prov.xml. We are also writing instructions for how to update to a more current licensing method, as well as instructions to redeploy via serial number. Please contact us at adobe-JELA@carahsoft.com or (877) 992-3623 with additional questions and/or support. ***

AEM FORMS

LiveCycle End-of-Life for maintenance & support

AEM Forms preserves all the capabilities of LiveCycle and adds even more functionality such as:

  • Adaptive forms – responsive technology for mobile and desktop devices
  • E-Signatures – integration with Adobe Sign
  • Intuitive user interface – drag-and-drop functionality to create and manage formsSimplified form filling – connections to back-end systems to autofill parts of forms

Why upgrade to AEM Forms?

  1. Core support for Liveycle ES4 ends in March 2018. Adobe is investing in enhancing digital experiences, increasing productivity, and eliminating paper waste through AEM Forms. You will still have access to all LiveCycle functionality that has been enhanced in AEM Forms.
  2. Enable workforce mobility. Field workers can interact with forms on-the-go and even save data, notes, and photos, even while offline. Information will automatically synchronize when reconnected to the corporate network.
  3. Simplify and scale forms. Editing your library of forms is much easier with an intuitive drag-and-drop interface to quickly make changes to the front-end experience, including easy-to-use tools to connect forms to backend systems to automate parts of the form filling process. You can also convert your existing LiveCycle templates to work on any device and browser.
  4. Create end-to-end paperless processes. Add legal e-signature components via Adobe Sign onto any form or document, including complex signature workflows involving multiple and unauthenticated users.
  5. Leverage the power of Adobe Experience Cloud. AEM Forms is natively integrated with AEM Sites to offer centralized content management across multiple digital properties. It also integrates OOTB with Adobe Analytics and Target to measure and optimize digital forms and documents.
