I'm trying to figure out how to have one drop down menu's options affected by another drop down menu's options.So for example Box A drop down has options 1, 2, 3, 4If I choose option 1 I want box B drop down to have options Red and blue, but if I choose option 2 I want the box B drop down to have Green and yellow.I cannot remember what options to choose if anything, and need help figuring out what properties I need to change, or how to edit the script.

var f = this.addField("myfield","text",0,[0,792,126,770]);    f.borderColor = color.black;    f.textSize=12;    f.textColor=color.black;It works fine but positions the text field in the top corner of the page, whereas with LiveCycle it was simple to make a new field below an existing one, then another each time the button was clicked. Can anyone help me with this please?

Hi I'm creating a form which requires the comparison of two cells to show a cash saving. I would like to change the colour of the text in the savings cells/column based on whether they are equal to or less than zero. The default colour if greater than 0 should be green.I have spent a while trawling the internet for a solution that works and whether the JS info should be in the calculation or in the validation. I have successfully got this calculation working. But cannot for the life of me suss the colour - I got close but alas no cigar.(function () {// Get field values as numbers    var v1 = +getField("Competitor1.0").value;    var v2 = +getField("OurPrice1.0").value;    var v3 = +getField("Quantity1.0").value;// calculate this field value    event.value = v3 * (v1 - v2);})();My questions are as follows- How do I create the colour script?- Where should it be used (in the calculation/validation areas)?Any help much appreciated.

I'm trying to store the filepath and filename of several PDFS in an array.  I'm using the action wizard and executing the code below.if ( typeof global.zArray == "undefined" ) {global.indexCnt = 0;global.zArray = new Array();}var path2file = this.path;var re = /.*\/|\.pdf$/ig;var filename = path2file.replace(re,"");var filepath = path2file;global.zArray[global.indexCnt] = [filepath,filename];global.indexCnt++;I tried viewing all the elements in the array after all the files processed using the code below, but it only prints the last filepath and filename in the folder.for (i=0;i<global.zArray.length;i++){console.println(global.zArray);}What am I doing wrong??

I have an array of objects that need to be persistent.  I have read that saving complex data can't be done as is but can be saved if in a string format.  Any help in this area will be greatly appreciated.  Also is there a special location to make this data persistent ie: global.setPersistent()?

Hi, is there a way to set fields to be required field and have the user fill out the required field before moving on to next field?

Hi all, I have a simple script that flattens a page. It works well. I just want to add a command so that the document saves once the page has been flatten:function Flatten(boolCurrentPageOnly) // Takes a boolean argument{if (boolCurrentPageOnly)                          // Flatten either this page...   {   this.flattenPages(this.pageNum);    app.execMenuItem("Save")                    //That's where I inserted  the new command. All works fine otherwise. Except that it doesn't save  the doc.   }else   {   this.flattenPages();                             &

I am trying to find a script that will delete all spawned pages, regardless of the number of pages.  I want to be able to set the document back to original.  The number of spawned pages may vary.

I have a program I am writing that has parts that interact with acrobat.  When a user that does not have acrobat is running the program on their machine it crashes when they try to access a form that imports the acrobat libraries.  Is there a way to check for acrobat and display a message to the user if they do not have acrobat?

I entered the script below which works but not perfectly.  If COT or POT is picked from the drop down list I want the WO text field to be blank, which it does.  If 'Vacation' is picked the WO number "3071070" populates to the text field.  The problem is if the user changes their mind from Vacation to COT the WO number does not disappear.  Is there something I can put in the quotes to tell it I actually want a blank text field?  Thank you!!// Place Absence Data into Pay Type Description and WO Fieldsvar AbsenceData = { "Vacation":{WO: "3071070",PayTypeDesc: "Vacation" },  "COT":{ WO: "", PayTypeDesc: "COT" },  "POT":{ WO: "",PayTypeDesc: "POT" },  "Stat Holiday":{ WO: "3071070",PayTypeDesc: "Stat Holiday" },  "Sick":{ WO: "3071080",PayTypeDesc: "Sick" },  "Family Sick":{ WO: "3071080",PayTypeDesc: "Family Sick" },  "Sick No Pay":{ WO: "3071080",PayTypeDesc: "Sick No Pay" },

I have a Button that on click populates a Package one of the the JS that I am using is causing me headaches though.I have an if statement that checks if a radio button value then depending on the value is supposed to copy the value of a hidden field containing multiple lines of text to another field.  Unfortunately the button click sets the value of the Field to object Field.if (this.getField("Pac.Comp").value == "DMV") {this.getField("Form.PG5Remarks2").value = this.getField("PG5StatementFem").value};Form.PG5Remarks  has the "object Field" instead of the statement.Thanks for any assistance.

Hi, I have a pdf document that contains images which are digitised pages from a historic hand-written text. The text cannot be OCR'd. We have manually transcribed the text so I have it available to add into the document, but I want to do this a) automatically (I have potentially about 15 of these volumes, each with ca 600 pages); and b) so that it doesn't appear for people looking at the document but it does allow them to search and navigate directly to pages that a given words occurs on.Currently I have this script (obviously I'll loop round pages and possibly read the text for each in from a file, but this is just to illustrate one page):var f = this.addField("Page1Text","text",0,[10,10,500,500]);f.display = display.noView;f.textSize = 0;f.textColor = color.transparent;f.fillColor = color.transparent;f.multiline = true;f.readonly = true;f.value = "1\nSpecimens illustrating Flora Tertiaria Helvetica\nFossil leaves &c Disco\nPetrified woods\nCoals British Columbia H.M.S Plumper\nFo

I am trying to rename the action button using the response given from the "app.response" entry. This value will be used not only to rename the action button but will also be used to fill in a form field on the spawned document.I am using a windows based computer - the code I have written works except I can't figure out  how use the variable generated by the user response to change the button label and to be used to populate other fields in the document.// If button is Clicked and the hidden check box is not checked - the Analyzer1 check-off pages will be spawned;var cb2 = this.getField("CB2").value;// Assign Templates to be spawned a variable so they may be recalled;var a1a = this.getTemplate("Analyzer1A");var a1b = this.getTemplate("Analyzer1B");var a1c = this.getTemplate("Analyzer1C");var a1d = this.getTemplate("Analyzer1D");  if (cb2 != "Yes"){var resp1 = app.response(" Enter The Analyzer Serial Number."); if ((resp1 != null)||(resp1 !="")){ this.getField("Anal1").buttonSe

Can English pdf documents be saved or exported to other languages (Italian specifically)?

In my doc are fields that I show/hide. So, now I've created a stamp. But, this is strange. When I go to apply the stamp it then goes to the bottom of the fields and I can only see a portion (or not at all) of the stamp. Is there a way of placing the stamp on top of the fields, I mean in front of the fields. Not behind the fields. Is there a solution or is that the way it is and I'm not going to be able to mix it up?

Is it possible to show/hide a table that was created in InDesign then exported to PDF? I made a page in InDesign with a small table. In Acrobat I placed fields into the table, but I show and hide these fields. I can move the entire table using the Object tool. When I show these fields it's fine. But, when I hide the fields the table just sits there and appears to be blank. I'd like to find a way of hiding the table too. Is that possible? Can someone help me out with this or suggest something else? Thanks folks.

when i convert a pdf to word the information in the new word file is made up of less than a quarter of the words in the pdf and some lines from the pdf. Any thoughts? I noticed that the pdf doc properties has the creator listed as "GPL Ghostscript 8.5". In other pdf files i convert to word the creator is Adobe Distiller....

I have a script that imports data, extracts and saves pages 1 by 1.  I have tested this script on smaller documents(10 pages) and it works, but the acrobat windows open & close for each page to extract and save.  I was wondering if there was something similar to VBA's Application.screenupdating = false or other solutions?

Good afternoon everybody, I am experimenting and learning with Adobe Acrbat Pro, Javascript Forms. Lately, I've been working on On/Off buttons that turn on and off other selected buttons. I've construdted a code with checkboxes, which each one turns On the lower ones, and Off the higher ones. Therefore, clicking on any would always show the previews options checked, while the later off.For example, Pressing on Button1 would keep Buttons2-5 off. Button3 turns one Button1-2 and off Button4-5. And Button5 would turn on Button1-4.Thus, Button1 is:var x = this.getField("Button1").valueAsString; if (x.value == "1"){   this.getField("Button2").value = "Off";   this.getField("Button3").value = "Off";   this.getField("Button4").value = "Off";   this.getField("Button5").value = "Off";} else{   this.getField("Button2").value = "Off";   this.getField("Button3").value = "Off";   this.getField("Button4").value = "Off";
