I am new to Adobe Livecycle (less than a week), and I'm at my end with this program and its counter-intuitive and cumbersome functionality (I've used other Adobe products on a Mac for 15 years as a graphic designer and have never had this sort of trouble). Any help would be appreciated. I urgently need to complete this project, and as of now it looks like I'll be recreating it from scratch.
I'm trying to make a dynamic PDF form using Adobe LiveCycle designer and have a problem. I have a boolean checkbox field that decides if other text fields are required or optional. I'd like to implement this functionality using form scripting - in the 'changed' event of the checkbox field I'd like to modify other form fields so they become either required or optional. My problem is that I don't know the javascript API and can't find how to modify field 'requiredness'. Thanks for helpR
What is the cost of Adobe LiveCycle Designer for one-person license?
If I buy Adobe LiveCycle Designer, and I use PDF forms to gather information for our database, do we need to buy any other adobe products?

As shown in this book, LiveCycle Designer addresses the many objectives of forms creation. It offers a digital handshake between the graphic designer and the data programmer. LiveCycle Designer lets forms designers create more compelling and dynamic documents than is possible with Acrobat or Microsoft Word. Forms created with LiveCycle Designer automatically expand to accommodate different amounts of data and report that information back to a database. The new version of LiveCycle Designer (ES4) allows for the first time forms to be deployed in HTML5 format, so they can be used on a wider array of devices (page sizes can adjust to smaller screens) and in a wider range of software systems (no special reader or plugin needed to use them, just a Web browser).
