Acrobat SDK

I am creating a fillable form for our employees to request vacation time off.  I have pieced together calculations scripts from various forums but can not get the result I want. Say an employee wants to take 01/04/19 off.  They would enter a start date/time of 01/04/19 8:00 am and end date/time of 01/04/19 5:00 pm.  I want the form to calculate the difference in hours.  Now the trick is that if they take more than 4 hours (leave after 12 noon) the deduction needs to deduct an hour from the result, to account for the lunch hour so that employee is only charged 8 hours of vacation rather than 9.  Here is the script I have pieced together, please advise:function Date2Num(cFormat, cString) {// convert cString with cFormat to number of minutes from Epoch date// convert to date time objectvar oDate = util.scand(cFormat, cString);// convert date time object to minutesreturn Math.floor(oDate.getTime() / (1000 * 60));} // end Date2Num function// format for input date &a

Everytime colleagues (who didn't make the PDF) want to insert a picture, it changes sideways. I made a button using JavaScript:event.target.buttonImportIcon();They need to use pictures received by email. What can I change in the settings (or what do I tell my colleagues) to make the pictures stand up straight?Thank you!

A Java Script Checkbox that makes a field visible or hidden based on the condition is not functioning properly. When first opening the form, the box does nothing. If I click on "Prepare Form" tool and immediately close, the button works as it should. If Adobe is closed and the form is reopened, the checkbox stops working again.var nHide = event.target.isBoxChecked(0)?display.visible:display.hidden; this.getField("Flex Line Type").display = nHide;

I am trying to auto populate pdf forms from excel (like mailmerge in word). I have multiple rows in excel and when I import data from the excel sheet, i would like each row to be created as a separate form in Adobe. I consulted with Adobe support and googled. It sounded like I needed a javascript and a custom action. Could someone help me with the script and guidnace on how to implement this in Adobe?

Hello,  We create lots of site layouts in PDF and would like to have the pdf open on other peoples computers/mobiles with the measure tool function ready as standard.  Currently we have to go through the motions of explaining how to do it and surprise surprise, most folk still can't seem to do it. Maybe because it involves doing something other than it just being there ready for them.Our PDF's are created through AutoCAD and placed in a sharepoint folder for the individual sites use. Is there an ability to add a script to the generated PDF that will open up the measure tool at the same time as the PDF?Thank you in advance.Chris

Good evening, I am trying to create a way to export, and import PDF's data with java script.  Here is what I have so far in terms of code:this.extractPages({    nStart: this.numPages-1,     cPath: 'C:\Users\dell\Documents\Adobe REC complete' + this.documentFileName});this.closeDoc(false);It will delete the pages but not export the data to the specified folder.  The java script runs after deleting all-but-one page, so perhaps my 'this.numpages' is wrong

In Adobe DC...how do I format a time field so the user can enter a 3 or 4 digit number w/o a colon (such as military time) and get a standard time format that has a colon and the am/pm?  For example:     User enters          User gets     0730                    7:30 am     1516                    3:16 pm     0000                    12:00 am

I have 31 text boxes, one for each day of the month.  In each text box there are 5 or 6 different entries, such as P, T, AB, AT.  I want to create a field to total the P's and T's but not the AB's and AT's.  How do I do that?

Ok so I have a situation where I have Checkboxes and textboxes that are related and need to populate together to a single textbox  BUT I have another set of checkboxes and textboxes that are related that ALSO need to populate together to the SAME single textbox mentioned previously. So here are the separate java scripts for each set of data that I want to put into the same single text box. How do I join the scripts together? or is it possible?Script 1:var values = [];  for (var i=280; i<=281; i++) {      var fname = "CheckBox "+i;      var f = this.getField(fname);      if (f==null) {          console.println("Error! Can't find: " + fname);          continue;      }      if (f.valueAsString!="Off") values.push(f.valueAsString);  }if (this.getField("SLS EO").valueAsString!="") values.push("SL

Dear All,I have 4 text fields with number values, where I would like validate the MIN value without zero. Which means that the validation script should ignore zero value(s) and only validate the min value among values, which are (x) > 0. Any idea for a Javascript? Thanks in advance?Best regards,Angela.

Ok, I have Javascript below that populates multiple checkbox values and multiple text box values into 1 single text box on a different page BUT the values of the text boxes are numbers and when they populate to the single text box there is no way of telling what the number value pertains to.  so for example: If I type into "Temp" textbox "96"....I want "Temp - 96" to populate to the single textbox. Is this possible with this script? if not, please help!var values = [];  for (var i=500; i<=505; i++) {      var fname = "CheckBox "+i;      var f = this.getField(fname);      if (f==null) {  console.println("Error! Can't find: " + fname);          continue;      }      if (f.valueAsString!="Off") values.push(f.valueAsString);  }if (this.getField("Vision Findings").valueAsString!="") values.push(this.getField("Vision Findings").va

Using Acrobat XI Pro, I can't figure out how to open the window that contains ALL the Javascripts in the document.  I need to add a single line of code to all required fields, and it would be 10x easier if I could go through all the scripts in the document at once, instead of clicking Properties > Actions > Edit for each field.  In Acrobat X Pro, in EDIT mode, I would click Other Tasks > Javascripts > Edit all Javascripts to accomplish the same task, but I'm using Acrobat XI Pro at work, and the menus are very different.
