Acrobat SDK

[Moderator moved from Adobe Creative Cloud to JavaScript.]I have watched more tutorials and read more articles than one should ever have to watch/read on this topic, and yet I still can't seem to find the answer for what Javascript to insert into the custom calculation script in order to display the User identity of the document. Please can somebody help, I'm a Javascript novice.Using a mac. I've tried to look at the Javascript of the existing Dynamic Stamps that come preloaded with the program, but for some reason I can't seem to see the Annotations folder in the Plug-ins folder.This Youtube video was the closest I got to coming right: Adobe Acrobat DC Dynamic Stamp Tutorial - YouTubeI inserted the following script, but it had issues with the first two lines of script and it didn't seem to like the hashtag either:var cAsk = “Enter a name”;var cTitle = “Document State for Stamp”;if(event.source.forReal &&  (event.source.stampName == “#templatename”)){  event.value =

I need a solution in place to split a multi line field at a certain point and fill the remaining split text into another field. I have three multi-line fields named Field 1, Field 2, and Field 3. I should say that data is not typed into these fields but rather is populated via a series of functions that grabs data from the other form fields and summarizes results in Field 1. If data does not fit in Field 1 I would like the text to overflow into Field 2..and so on. I already have the code to populate the fields.I had the idea that the easiest way to do this count the number of paragraph returns and then split when a certain number is reached. I know how to count the returns but not sure how to implement splitting overflow.. So for example, if I have this code: var count = 0;var s = getField("Field1").valueAsString;for (var i = 0; i < s.length; i++) {    if (s === "\r") count += 1;}....and I want to split the text at 50 returns.. then fill Field2.Can this be done? Maybe

Hi all,I have a 40-page PDF price list from a supplier which contains hundreds of prices of various products. We'd like to run a formula over every single listed price and replace our supplier's "buy" price with our "sell" price so we can forward the document to our customers. The price list includes formatting, images and colours etc which we want to retain so exporting to Excel, Word etc isn't an option.I'd like know if it's possible to create a script that can replace every single "buying" price in the document (all are prefixed with $) with our "selling" price.Our simple calcuation involves multiplying the price by X and rounding to a ceiling of $10.Thanks in advance for your help.

How would this Excel formula translate to a custom calculation script in a PDF form?=IF(A4<=10, 16.68,16.68+((A4-10)*1.67))Thanks!

Hello, I am trying to figure out if you can set one radio button within a group to read only. I know how to make it work for disabling the whole radio button group with the following Mouse Up JavaScript:this.getField("Style").readonly=true;Within the "Style" group I have two radio buttons, "A" and "B". How do I alter the above script to just set radio button "A" to read only?Thank you.

I am new to programming anything in an adobe created form; I am trying to calculate the shipping cost to be added to the subtotal of an order based on the quantity of items ordered.

I am wanting to use one of three radio buttons to change comments in another section of the form. The form is for an elevation certificate and the radio button options are construction drawing, under construction, and finished construction. At each stage there are different things needed in the comments section that deal with the stages of the EC. Is there a way to link the comments in the comments section with the radio button choices so I don't have to type them in each time?

How do you formulate an IF function where if the value of Field "C" is less than 70,000, then the value of Field "Tier 2" is not formulated?Right now, this is what I have:event.value = (70000-this.getField("C").value)*0.2;if(C<70000)event.value,"Not Commissionable"I know this isn't correct as I am not a professional with Javascript or Advanced Calculations, but I would like to know how to do this.Thank you!

I'm a novice at this so I'd appreciate any help. I've done a lot of searching in forums and can't find a full answer to my problem. I have a 12 page form, mostly text fields, but also radio buttons and check boxes. I have many check boxes/radio buttons that when selected reveal a hidden text field. I want to add an option to clear the form, but when I set up a reset button using the "Reset a form" default action, it not only clears the form, but clears out the hidden form field properties and they all are visible again. I want to create a button using script to clear the form while keeping all form fields in their original state. In my searching I found this script:var nButton = app.alert({cMsg: "Warning: You are about to reset all data in the form. \n\nDo you want to continue?",cTitle: "Reset Form Data",nIcon: 1, nType: 2});if (nButton == 4){     xfa.host.resetData();     xfa.form.remerge();}I am assuming something like this will work and I know
