I am developing a PDF to aid in completing forms necessary for the expungement of criminal records. Most defendants have more that one case. Some have many more. Each PDF contains numerious petitions  each followed by  related order. Every 4 pages of the PDF  a  new petition and its related order begins.Among other things, each petition and order has a Text field ("P1.Case.CaseNum") for the  number of the case (which may be numbers and letters) and a drop down menu for the county of the court in which the case happened.One particular county requires a separate  document that lists all the case numbers of the cases from that county (That County's dropdown output is 056.) I have added this listing document to the end of the PDF. I want a script for a field in  this listing document that copies the case number from a petition only if the county involved is 056. I have the following script that will ener Jefferson (if 056 is chosen in the dropdo

Hoping to be able to get a text box to populate automatically in an adobe form I created.  I would like when a customer puts their initials in box 1 for the text in box 2 to populate in box 3.  For example if a customer was to put their initials in box 1, the price listed in box 2 would then populate into box 3.  I have gotten close to the formula but have not found a sting that quite works.  Thank you!

We have a PDF reader that is developed in WindowsForm, but this PDF reader does not support JavaScript that is under Acroform. It is currently planned to support this type of 'JavaScript PDF' on our Windows Forms view, but we cannot find any exact ideas or approaches on how to support PDF's JavaScript.So if anyone can give an idea on this, we would be very helpful. Thanks in advance.

I have a PDF that I am creating in Adobe Acrobat that is a questionaire. I used radio buttons so that the user can easily select the score of the answer to each quesion between the range of 1-10 (each answer has a hidden button preselected giving it a score of 0). There are 6 Sections total.Each Section has 4 questions.So, a total of 24 questions I can't figure out the javascript to count how many questions have been answered in each section (basically a score between 1-10). The goal is to give a balanced score at the end of the pdf that takes into account only the questions answered. I hope this makes sense. I have no coding experience and have been totally lost browsing the internet for answers.

Hello together,I'm currently creating a form in which following pages can be spawned by templates.For this I need consecutive numbers on the newly created pages which are aligned with the last number of the previous page.I also have a plan how I want to do this. But I need the prefix of the previous page. How to determine the prefix of the current page I have found out. But how do I determine the prefix of the previous page?"var prefix = "";var re = /(.+\.)(.+)/g;var res = re.exec(event.target.name);if (res != null){  prefix = res[1];}"Thanks in advance for helping.

I'm creating a new form based on an old webpage that had this feature. I'm hoping to get the "Date" Fields next to each day of the week to populate correctly no matter what day of the week a user inputs into the "Week Of" field. I've tried to adapt code I found in a handul of other posts with people making time sheets and such...but I just can't wrap my mind around Javascript enough to get it to work the way I need it. Any help or guidance would be much appreciated!

I have been searching for days and trying numerous formulas found on this community but can't seem to get the custom calculation script to work.  Any help is greatly appreciated. Here is the formula in Excel.   =if(Amount1>0,Type,"")In the Type field on the bottom, I am trying to say that if the amount is greater than 0 (where 300 is) then fill in the Type from the above field that I have already entered that into.      This is what it should look like when the formula works in Excel.  Because I input JE16 in the top field, when I input the amounts in those fields below, the type JE16 shows in the first field to the left.  I hope this makes sense and thank you in advance for any help.

Hi! I need to convert the following excel formula to Javascript for my PDF, I've studied basic syntax a bit, but cant seem to figure it out.    The excel formula is: =IF(A15=1,B15*0.75,(A15-0.5)*B15)   However, in the PDF,  A15 will be Days1 and B15 will be MIE1 .    Please Help

I am a complete beginner.This is a very rudimentary question.I am creating a slightly spreadsheet-like form.Objectize each field as follows. Intuitively, A, B and C are vertical columns.Think of 12345 as a row. var A1 = this.getField("A_1"); var A2 = this.getField("A_2"); var A3 = this.getField("A_3"); var A4 = this.getField("A_4"); var A5 = this.getField("A_5"); var B1 = this.getField("B_1"); var B2 = this.getField("B_2"); var B3 = this.getField("B_3"); var B4 = this.getField("B_4"); var B5 = this.getField("B_5"); var C1 = this.getField("C_1"); var C2 = this.getField("C_2"); var C3 = this.getField("C_3"); var C4 = this.getField("C_4"); var C5 = this.getField("C_5"); I am trying to copy the value entered in the specified C field to B based on the value entered in A. Each row has a button, and the following JavaScript is embedded in the button.Very simple code. if(A1.value == 3000){B1.value = C1.value;}if(A1.value == 6000){B1.value = C2.value;}if(A1.va

I have Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional. It was working fine on Windows 8 on my previous laptop. I have just upgraded to a new laptop with Windows 10 Home Edition, and Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional is asking me to reactivate. The online reactivation options do not seem to work. The support desk people suggested that 8 won't work anymore and that I need to license a new product. What's the story?

I have scoured the forums and tried several different scripts and adapted them for my use successfully but I cannot seem to get this action for my checkbox on my form to work. I am editing and updating a PDF form.I have a checkbox named cbApproval.When this box is checked, I would like the text field below it named ApprovalOnlyStatement to appear with the sentence "APPROVAL ONLY" If the box is not checked, the text box should disappear and the user will need to move on to type in a justification in a larger text field underneath - probably not relevant information for this. All I want is for the sentence to appear when the box is checked.  Help?Thank you

Hi, As a newbie, I'm stuck.  This is as far as I could get in setting up a "Done" button to lock all the fields as read only. for (var i = 0; i < this.numFields; i++){if (app.alert({nType:2,nIcon:2,cMsg:"This will lock the document for printing and email submission. Are you sure you want to continue?"})==4){this.getField(getNthFieldName(i)).readonly=true;}else{}} The pop up works, but the script hangs up at the pop up window and I have to Force Quit the app.  I can get the fields to set to read only without the pop up, however the folks using this form will need to understand the consquences. of selecting the "Done" button.

Hello - I have searched the web for many hours looking for a solution on being able to extract pages from using a key word (instead of typing individual page numbers).  I even called Adobe Sales to ask if Adobe CS would work and they assured me it would but I would need the pro version.  So I downloaded - and it didn't - I called customer support and they said it wouldn't work - I recalled the sales group and they confirmed it wouldn't work now.  I am not saying this to complain, only to say that I have tried really hard to get this questions answered so I am hoping someone in the forums will be able to help... please!I have a 2000 page document and need to do a number of different "extractions" of different pages based on key words present.  If there is an automatic way I can do this, I would be very grateful if someone could help impart their wisdom on my:-).If there is a 3rd party software I can buy, I am happy to do that too (I of course started with looking at

Writing Acrobat plug-ins. There are callbacks available for picking up keystrokes in a plug-in; for a page view, when an annotation, a selection or tool is active. I am interesting in providing a "universal" keystroke, for keyboard shortcuts even when no document is open. I have reports that some plug-ins can do this.  Any ideas or hints?

A friend and I are working on an accounting project. My friends dad set up an electronic PDF sheet that is supposed to automatically calculate totals and put them in the corresponding blanks/cells. My friend uses a Dell laptop and the PDF automatically does the math for him, but when I use Adobe Acrobat on my IPad Mini 1, Adobe does not automatically do the calculations. How do I fix this? Need an answer ASAP!

Greetings all!I have a form which contains a series of radio button groups which, when selected, will generate a total score in a textbox based on which buttons are selected. I am looking for the specific functionality of having the total textbox hidden until a button from each group has been selected, rather than the total box showing a running tally as a selection is made in each group. Basically, I have a textbox: "Total" which will be calculated by the points earned in Groups 1, 2, 3, & 4. Currently, when no buttons are selected, the Total field displays "0". When a selection of "5" is made in Group 1, the Total field now displays "5". What I want is for the Total field to remain hidden until a button has been checked in Groups 1, 2, 3, & 4. I believe the solution to my question involves writing JavaScript in either the Calculate or Validate tab in the "Total" textbox. I have no experience with JavaScript and all forums I've found up to this point don't

In the 2020 version of Acrobat DC, is there a way to automate deleting all form fields in the PDF? I looked at Action Wizard and it doesn't look like you can use it to do this. I can't write JavaScript. Here is how I manually do this for each PDF.Open the PDF.In the PDF, select Tools > Prepare Form.In the Fields pane, change the sort order to Alphabetical order. (You can't do the next step in the default Tab order.)Select all the fields in the list by selecting the first field, hold down Shift, and then select the last field.Right-click the selection and then click Delete.Save the PDF.I would like to repeat this process for an entire folder of files. (I am deleting "buttons" that use the form field to perform an action. If I use Redact > Remove Hidden Information and select "Form fields" and then execute, it deletes the field's entry from the PDF but leaves behind the button. When I perform the above procedure it deletes both the field and the button.) Any help will be

Hi Everyone, After spending several hours troubleshooting this issue with support, they've suggested I reach out to the support community as you many collectively be able to help me resolve this issue. I've created pdf documents in Pro DC with editable image and text fields. I need the images for the image fields to have a transparent background which means png files are the mandatory image files for most of my editable pdf documents.  When I test these documents in Pro DC I use png image files, which work perfectly. However, when I open the document to test it in Reader, (which is what my customer would use to populate the image and text fields), the png files are not only the wrong size, but they have a strange background to them. (See images below that show how the document looks with a png file in Pro DC and then what it looks like with the same png image file placed in the same image field of Reader. ) As you can see, there seems to be some variable changing when lo
