Creating a Form Design

In this section, you will learn how to create and test a form design for a mortgage application. You will learn how to do the following tasks in the order shown:

• Creating a form design
• Adding a logo to your form design
• Saving your form design
• Previewing your form design
• Adding a title to your form design
• Adding form instructions to your form design
• Adding headings to your form design
• Adding fields to your form design using a schema
• Changing Text Field types to Drop-down List types
• Editing captions in your form design
• Changing the position of fields on your form design
• Enhancing the appearance of your form design
• Adding calculations to your form design

You need a form to start the process for handling mortgage applications. The form design is typically completed by a form author or form designer. Applicants will fill the form electronically using Workspace ES, and a loan officer or bank manager will approve the mortgage application using Workspace ES.

You can create a mortgage application form by using form objects, which represent text boxes, check boxes, images, and numeric fields. If you have defined the fields in an XML schema data file, you can drag the elements onto the form. The appropriate form objects are created based on the XSD type defined in the XML schema file.

For more information about creating form designs, see "Working with Form Designs" and "Working with Objects" in LiveCycle Designer ES Help.
