Hello, I have created a form that once you push submit it sends an email (using javascript) with the filled pdf. Would there be anyway to get this email to also contain a calendar invite? I just cannot figure this one out at all.Thank you,Nick

I have created a editable form with the help of Acrobat DC which has few fields and a submit button with action to submit to web-service url. The form data is submited to the url fine on desktop browsers. But does not work on mobile Acrobat Reader.  We also tried using JavaScript to connect to the soap web-service but the url is not called when I open the PDF in Mobile Acrobat Reader.  Is this feature available on mobile acrobat reader? If no then do we have any other options to achive this functionality? Any ideas, kindly share.

Hi, I am sure the answer is out there and have probably missed it. I have created a form in indesign, exported it as interactive pdf. One of the cells (Deficiency) has a drop down list with options Yes/No/ N/A. I would like the fill colour of the box and its two adjacent cells to change to Red wherever the deficiency option is YES. Is this condition possible (either in Acrobat or even Indesign) with text values or does it only work with numeric values? It's the first time I am using javascripts so I am pretty uncertain what to change in the codes I found which could potentially offer the solution. Screenshot of form attached. Much appreciate any help or suggestions- thank you!  

Hello everyone, I need help on my Adobe Acrobat Reader DC. It's been 3 weeks trying to solve this problem and it's frustrating. I want to add a custom menubar in my Adobe Acrobat Reader DC, I tried to put a BasicPlugin.api in:"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat Reader DC\Reader\plug_ins". When I tried to run again, I don't see any changes the in menubar.  Also changed the setting in Edit -> Preferences -> General (tab) -> and I unchecked the checkbox button where it says Use only certified plugins, Currently in Certified Mode: Yes. But it seems like Certified Mode is always set to Yes, it doesn't change at all. I downloaded the Acrobat DC SDK, and looked into the files, there is a folder Reader-enabling Tools\win.And inside this folder there are 2 executable files (MakeKeys.exe and SignPlugin.exe):   When I tried to run the Makekeys.exe: When I tried to run the SignPlugin.exe: I searched all over but haven't get any clue how

Hello All,I'm sure these questions have probably been answered at some point and I wasn't able to find them, so here goes.I have Adobe Pro XI and I had a few questions about the tool/action wizard section. I have a lot of tiff images in multiple folders in multiple directories. I'm trying to combine the files in each individual folder into one PDF file, OCR the combined file and finally endorse it. Right now I can only create an action with the "Recognize Text using OCR", "Add Bates Numbering" and "Save to Local Folder" actions and I have to run the "Combine Files into PDF" action separately because it can't be added to the action that I have created.I wanted to use the "Combine Files into PDF" action with other actions. Is there a way to add this step to the action that I created? Or is there a workaround to this issue/problem? Is there a way to run the "Combine Files into PDF" action on multiple folders and not have Adobe combine all the tiff images across all folders into one PDF. F

Hi, I am working on a PDF in Acrobat Pro DC and need some help with some JS that is eluding me. I am trying to make the text color change based on an expiration date.

I have a reset button to reset specific fields, but is there a javascript to allow the user to choose themselves which field they want to reset? rather choosing the fields for them. I'm using adobe pro   Thank you so much! 

Is this.removeField or something else in the below script a trusted function?I'm trying to create a button that will delete fields by type. I want the button to delete buttons, checkboxes, and radio buttons.I already have this as an action and it works, but I'd like it as a button for easy access and for other users to use.I'm getting the following error: NotAllowedError: Security settings prevent access to this property or method. Doc.removeField:11:AcroForm:MouseUp:Action1Below is the script I've modified from another forum, but can't seem to find the link to reference. The only difference is I added the or operand to find multiple field types. It's set to a mouse-up event. I've also tried putting most of it document level except for the last for condition and the delete button action., but that still produces the error. Additionally, I tried this.removeField with a named field and it works. I guess I'm not seeing anything that would require a trusted function...//Remove Buttons and

I would like change the current default highlighter color programatically with javascript. The manual equivalent would be selecting the highlighter tool then using the highlighter tool properties bar to change the color so that my next highlight will be in the newly selected color. I'd like to change the color PRIOR to making a highlight (as opposed to making a highlight and then changing the color of that last made highlight). Is this possible? I use color coded highlighting extensively and the inability to rapidly switch between ~6 colors makes it very difficult to use Acrobat as my primary PDF reading application. Thank you in advance.

Fill and Sign is not working when I open a PDF link in Internet Explorer. Is there a reason for this? It was working fine just last week.

I am working on a form that calculates a bunch of different fields based on a few inputs (for a table top game, pathfider 2e if anyone is interested) I have 6 fields that generate a number (STR, DEX, CON, INT, WIS, CHA). I want to make a drop down in a different section of the form that has those are options, and will pull the number from the original field as the export value. So for instance, if you select STR from the downdown menu, I want that options Export Value to be the vlue from the field "STRMod".  I tried usinng the field name i want to pull as the entry for the export value. I also tried:this.getField("STRMod").value I also tried:event.value = this.getField("STRMod").value No avail Any ideas? is this possible?

Hi all! Would really appreciate some help figuring out the proper code to help me at work. The idea is to be able to automatically search for phrases in a PDF document containing dollar signs (i.e "$24.7 million...."), or percents ("45% of sales") and then add in a red rectangle around that phrase. Can anyone give me a little guidance on how to do this? I am very new to the world of writing code so I would really appreciate the help with this. Thanks so much in advance!

How do I replace Time Machine?

Problem: to open PDF files encrypted as a whole using 3rd party methods, such encrypted files have custom file extension (like foo.pdf.newext). Solutions tried:wrote a new Acrobat plug_in (based on Acrobat SDK's sample DMSIntegration), implemented custom ASFileSys to encrypt/decrypt underlying file on disk. To make Acrobat use my ASFileSys I replaced default file open dialog (AVAppOpenDialog()) with my own by replacing its HFT entry and provided my own ASFileSys instead of ASGetDefaultFileSys() as out param of replaced call. It works for files opened via file open dialog. But it does not work for files opened directly from Explorer or Comman prompt as no file open dialog is involved. Any help here on how to replace ASFileSys files opened from Explorer?wrote a new Acrobat plug_in (based on Acrobat SDK's sample DMSIntegration), implemented custom ASFileSys to encrypt/decrypt underlying file on disk. To make Acrobat use my ASFileSys I registred for File open notifications (AVDoc

I am using rectangle from Drawing tool bar. I have added that to my current tool set. I can change the outline color and fill in color to White. When I select Make Properties default, the setting doesn't stick. When I close Acrobat and Open it again, the settings are revert to default. I have other users are who are experiencing the same issue. We are using Acrobat Pro XI and Acrobat Standard X. It used to work. Not sure which Adobe update is killing this feature. Any ideas what could be causing this issue?

This has been driving me nuts for a few hours and I've just realised what I think the problem is, but I don't know who to rectify it. In all fields, I have the following custom validation script so I don't get a form full of zerosif(event.value == 0 | event.value == '') event.value = ''; Problem is, in another field I have the following which says I want a specific field to show zeros, which it's not doing, I'm guessing because of the custom validation script. if (this.getField("vat rate.10").value == "Exempt") {event.value = 0;}else {event.value = this.getField("vat rate.10").value/ 100.0;} If I remove the custom validation script, I obviously get a load to zeros appearing. Help please!
