Hi, I've just completed designing a 'work book' in Indesign and have several text fields for the end user to enter in their responses. Just testing the PDF and it's not printing, saying that the page does not exist. I've even reduced to just 1 single test page and tried Command+P, but it still doesn't recognise the page. thanks
I hope this gets to the right folks because this was the first thing I happened to look for in the js api reference and thought it was intentionally omitted or something but please note the below link: https://opensource.adobe.com/dc-acrobat-sdk-docs/library/jsapiref/doc.html#scroll will not take you to the actual section, nor will the link at the left because it shares an id with the up arrow at the bottom right. Which apparently appears to be where everything is saved. I have copied the element out to review the relevent info but I think that's a simple fix I would encourage. Now to look at PDF Reference! 🙂
When develop adobe reader plug-in, user open a pdf file, user “sign yourself” to execute signature, Is there a callback function after signing the file ? not digital sign. [Question moved to the Acrobat SDK forum]
Hi team,I am trying to convert Pdf to Docx via Adobe services API, I followed the sample here https://developer.adobe.com/document-services/docs/overview/pdf-services-api/howtos/export-pdf/. After getting output, it look fine as first, but when I check it in XML format, almost everyword become its own element, so it doesn't maintain the original sentence, paragraph anymore. Is there any option to keep the elements together as it should be? Regards,James Nguyen
Is there a AI Assistant SDK for use in a C# and Python application? The app sends a prompt and a response returned. If not available now, when will a SDK be released. Thx [Question moved to the Acrobat SDK forum]
I have recently signed up for using Distiller in CLI mode and I need to convert a few hundred PDFs from postscript to PDF using the Distiller install on my local machine that's here, "/Applications/Adobe Acrobat DC/Acrobat Distiller.app/Contents/MacOS/Distiller"I am pretty close but I can't manage to get rid of the annoying Distiller window after every call. I am wondering what am I missing.I use python and make a subprocess call, that looks like thissubprocess.run([DISTILLER_INSTALLATION_PATH, "--nopause", "-q", "-dBATCH", "-dNOPAUSE", f"-sOutputFile={output_pdf_path}",f"-dPDFSETTINGS={print_job_options}", ps_file],check=True)However, I do this in a loop but every time Distiller expects me to close the window.Here's my questions.1) Where is the documentation for this stuff, almost impossible to find?2) What am I missing when i already specify NOPause, and batch as arguments?3) Was there an alternative where I don't go through every PS file in a single loop but provide them all at one
How do a format a text field in a PDF form to use the correct spacing depending by card type? For example, American Express cards (14 characters, starts with a 3) should have 4,3,3,5 spacing and formatted like so: 3xxx xxx xxx xxxxxVisa (Starts with a 4), MasterCard (Starts with a 5), and Discover (Starts with a 6) all have 15 characters with 4,4,4,4 spacing and be formatted like so: 4xxx xxxx xxxx xxxx - Visa5xxx xxxx xxxx xxxx - MasterCard6xxx xxxx xxxx xxxx - DiscoverIs there a text field script that can do this type of task? I am currently using Adobe X ProThank you in advance.
Why can't I create pdf any more
I have run the below script for years without problem or error in older versions of Adobe Pro. This script takes a pdf file with any number of pages and sorts them to make the page starting in the middle of the document +1, the new page 2, and so on, resulting in a new sort that has pages backed up correctly for print purposes. for (i = 0; i <= this.numPages/2-1; i++)this.movePage(this.numPages-1, this.numPages/2-i-1); This year I upgraded to Creative Cloud and am receiving varied results with the script. On the first set of documents, the script worked without fail. The second returned RangeError on movePage, but now all subsequent tries return:ReferenceError: i is not defined1:Console:Execundefined Any idea what's not working?
It is quite possible there is a simpler way to do what I am needing help with, but I will describe my issue as best as possible, with how I currently have it, and then explain my issues. I'm not fluent in writing scripts, but if it is explained, I could probably grasp the concept... My querying efforts on this form have not been locating something for me yet. I have a form for requesting rentals and I want it to calculate a total at the end, so the renter knows how much to pay. There are a few variables to throw in though. I have been sucessful at implementing check boxes for the different rooms (4 in total) and having a number associated to each check box which will then add the sum of all check boxes to display at the bottom "Total Rent" text field. I have an additional check box for the entire building which is a different fee, and if I check that box, it will add it to the total. There is a mandatory damage deposit fee for this rental which I currently have a checkbox for.&nbs
I'm trying to insert Text callout, however its not showing up. It only showing the annotation box without arrow pointer. Please refer the code mentioned below:var link = "http://www.example.com/";var spans = new Array(); spans[0] = new Object(); spans[0].text = "Links to: "; spans[0].textSize = 12; spans[0].textColor = color.red; spans[1] = new Object(); spans[1].text = link; spans[1].textSize = 12; spans[1].textColor = color.black;var annot = this.addAnnot({ page: 0, type: "FreeText", intent: "FreeTextCallout", rect: [10, 10, 10, 10], richContents: spans });
Hello I am making a seniority calculator Briefly, I have a field for today's date and seniority date below I have 5 sets of fields with start and end, here you can enter the periods you have been a member. It is therefore meant that all 5 periods are calculated for the total number of days. I will then subtract this result from today's date field. In order to get a date stated in the field with seniority date Hope someone can help me a bit here. I am not strong in JavaScript but can read me that this is probably the way to go to make this succeed.Thanks in advance from the Dane
I have Acrobat Pro and find that sometimes if I add a page from one file into another, any comments that are copied to the new page are automatically rotated if the added page was not the same orientation as the existing document, even if I previously rotated it and saved it to match.How do I either stop this happening, or how do I rotate the comments to their original orientation?
Hello,I'm encountering a problem when I'm updating the PRICE1 value, it also updates PRICE2 (divides PRICE2 by 1.2 too) and vice-versa. There is no other javascript code.My calculation order is : PRICE1 > TOTAL1 > PRICE2 > TOTAL2 Anyone can tell me where is the problem please ? Thank you
Hello, we use the “Fill and Sign” function to fill out forms. There are logically fields in forms where you have to write some text, Text with more tan one sentence. There is a problem here that everyone should have:1.) Use the Fill and Sign function and add a text field to any PDF2.) Now copy or write text into the text field, e.g. 240 words What's happening now?1.) I can no longer edit the text properly, it lags like hell2.) If you place the cursor in a certain place, it sometimes takes an extremely long time for the cursor to be placed. It works fine for the first few letters/words in the text field, but it gets worse at the end of the text field. Very strange3.) If you open the windows task manager and simply click in the text field, you can see how the RAM requirement increases with each click. 2GB, 3GB, 4GB. Just by clicking on the text field. Tested on 10 different PCs with Windows 10, including private computers and laptops. It affects several Adobe Rea
I have a Mac running OS Monterey 12.6.9. I'm running MS 365 desktop apps for Mac version 16.82 and have the latest updated Adobe Acrobat downloaded from Creative Cloud. I have issues when converting a PPTX file to PDF within MS PPT desktop app. If I select Yes to rich text cloud based service, then the file either does not convert (conversion process crashes and Acrobat auto-quits) or it converts but does not preserve the fonts in the PPTX file (even if I embed fonts within PPTX file first) and the tags are labeled correctly but are empty (no text identified by tags) and contains no reading order. When I select No to rich text cloud-based service to convert to PDF, the file converts but is not tagged. When I select autotag within Acrobat, I either get this error message: "The file does not meet any of the special features mentioned as reasons why the document cannot be tagged." OR the file is tagged but tags are empty and there is no reading order shown. Attachments below- "test docume
I think I may have accidently turned on an option a few months ago and I want to turn it off. It appears that, whenever I open a PDF, Acrobat starts to prepare the document for something. There is a window that pops up on my screen almost immediately after opening that says, "Please wait while document is being prepared." It then shows the page numbers as it "prepares" the document. It normally only takes 5-10 seconds to prepare a 10-page document, but a long document can be very disruptive. I am given the option to cancel the process, but this often locks up Acrobat and I have to close the app.What is going on and can I stop it. Should I stop it? I don't really know what it is doing. I have noticed that the window that displays the above message does not indicate which application the message is coming from, so it is possible it is not an Adobe message. Thank you.

Hi, we are currently trying to implement webhooks as part of flow to update approved quotations in our system. We've run into issues with the setting to allow 2-way ssl which does not appear to return any certificate in a typical location in our C# Backend Application. httprequest.connection.clientcertificate is not populated and there is nothing immediately obvious in the headers. We also tried not returning the same cert in our response and Adobe accepted our response rather than failing on initial creation.Is there a particular location this SSL cert should be present or anything I might be missing, such as an invalid pfx with no error?
I have a PDF that has three comments. They are locked. When I click on the comment and unlock it, I can delete the comment. But then it deletes the text box associated with the comment.
I'm working on an assessment tool which requires scoring for each of 15 questions based on values assigned to radio button options. I'd like each question to recieve one score in a hidden text field, so I can then get a sum for selected questions (i.e. questions 3, 6 and 12) as a subset score. Questions are labeled as "group1" through 15; Options are labeled "choice1" through 5. Here's an example question (value in parentheses): In the past 10 days, how much were you bothered by a coworker?Not bothered (0)Slightly bothered (1)Bothered (2)Significantly bothered (3)Extremely bothered (4) I figure the same script could be used for each questions, all are formatted the same way. Any help is appreciated.
Hello I am using adobe.pdfservicessdk in .Net and i am getting my expected results.My only concern over here is, whether inner functionality call any api which take my data outside environment? As we have strict instruction that data should not go outside invironment. Thanks in advance.
I make sheet music PDFs, then collect them together in a big file using Acrobat. In that new file i add internal links, for example in the table of contents to another page. I make them invisible rectangles.Then i send the resulting PDF to my ipad. I use Forscore. In that app, all the links show up as green rectangles, the same areas i made links in Acrobat.So, invisible in Acrobat, visible in Forscore.In Acrobat, after searching, no apparent adjustments or preferences possible, afaik. In Forscore, also no preferences/view choices to be made regarding links.I honestly don't know which app might be the problem, but my experience suggests Acrobat.Any ideas how i can make links truly invisible?Using a macbook pro, late model, everything updated. Newish ipad, updated.Screenshot attached, showing links [green] versus no links [normal text]. I would like very much for that green to go away.Thanks in advance, for any information that might help me retain my sanity.
Created a dynamic stamp to pull the author name (identity name) and current date and time. When the stamp is placed nothing happens...took script from a youtube video and customized it. Nothing. Then canceled script and went into each field and put script...nothing. I am a beginner so I apologize for the childlike description. if((event.source.forReal)&&(event.source.stampName == "#CustomerService")){this.getField("Reviewer").value = identity.name;this.getField("Datetime").value = util.printd("m/d/yyyy h:mm tt", new Date());}
Keep getting this message when combining files - exhausted Adobe help - they couldn't fix it! Adobe Pro Dc and Windows 10 Pro. Anyone clever enough to find a fix?
