Acrobat SDK

Adobe Reader DC is getting an error message when opening pdf files. "The Application was unable to start correctly (0xc00000a5). Click OK to close the application"  Clicking OK allows the file to be opened normally, but I am still unable to save the file.  I have uninstalled Adobe Reader DC with the fixit tool rebooted, and reinstalled multiple times, but always get the same error. I am using a Windows 7 64bit machine.

Hey all. I have been scouring forums all morning for an answer to this but keep coming up empty. First of all, I am still VERY novice at javascript in Acrobat, but here is the scenario:I have 5 required fields in my form. When I have a submit button that just uses the mouse up - submit form event, it will reject the submission if a required field is empty. However, I am submitting using javascript so that I can add text from one of the fields to the subject of the email that this is submitted by. The issue is when it is submitted this way, it no longer seems to validate the form to ensure the required fields are filled.Some addition context:The required fields are largely text and are as follows:repname (text)pneumonic (text)customer id (text)client name (text)Verification Method1 (drop down)If all of these are filled out then the form should allow submission. In a perfect world, if they click submit and any of the fields are empty I would love a pop up message that lets them know that

If there is some fields like the following, is there anyway (maybe using API or SDK) to get the position of the fields (for example left 47.52 pt, ...) and the name of the field (in this case Text1, Text2 and Text5)? I would like to export these information into a text document or XML.

I have a text field created and when someone fills it out I want the degree symbol to show up after. For example, if someone enters the number 180 I want the degree symbol to show up so it looks like 180°. When I open up Text Field Properties > Format, which one do I use (Custom format script: or Custom keystroke Script" and what is the javascript code for this to occur?

When I click a button that I have placed on a form, I want the text in a text field already on the form to change to the text in a variable that I have created.Specifically what I am trying to do://creates my variablevar date = new Date();var components = [    date.getYear(),    date.getMonth(),    date.getDate(),    date.getHours(),    date.getMinutes(),    date.getSeconds(),    //date.getMilliseconds()];var id = components.join("");I then have a text field called "ID_Text"I thought I could just use the following, but it does not work.getField("ID_Text").value = id

What is the link to Acrobat JS reference guide?  The one I had is broken.

Is it possible to run an action with a script (NOT execute a javascript inside the action, but run the action itself with a script)?

Hello everyone, I'm currently working for a company as an Intern and they asked me to create a custom form panel (basicaly a window that pops up when you call a javascript script) that should be filled with fields for the user to fill. Once those fields are filled i'm supposed to create and XML file from those fields.The problem is not about the XML file it's about creating the panel. Does anyone knows anything about it or is there any topic talking about it ? (I was not able to find any)Thanks for your time and have a nice day !

I'm going to add a dropdown that populates a text box in my custom dynamic stamp. I would then also like a way to go to the page in a PDF that contains specific stamp text without having to type that text into the search field every time, or scroll thru the document, or look thru the Page Thumbnails.Googled for a way to have a separate dropdown with the same values as the stamp dropdown, that searches the document for that stamp text, so far without success.I also looked for a way to programmatically create individual bookmarks named for the stamp dropdown values that are chosen, so far without success.Any ideas for the best way to do this please?Thank you.

I would appreciate any assistance regarding several questions I have about scripting for a particular form.  I am NOT a coder (so please type slowly!).  I am currently using Acrobat Pro 11.0.23 on Windows 10.Below is a screen shot of the planned form:INFORMATION ABOUT THE FORM:Need to be able to check off all that apply – for example a typical response might be POSITIVE     for:  Problem 1; Problem 5; Procedure 6; Procedure 10 and Option 10.      (All of these POSITIVE).  For Calculation of the “FINAL  LEVEL” – this relies ONLY on the single HIGHEST Problem – or Procedure –     or Management Option.In the case above – the Final Level would be HIGH because both Procedure 10 AND Option 10 were POSITIVE.The YES / NO field could be used to indicate that ANY of the responses at that particular level had     been selected.  (This is not completely necessary – but would make it easier

We have a Mileage Reimbursement form. I was tasked with figuring out how to automatically calculate the miles due. Below is what I did to make it calculate.

Customer asked how to make it calculate. It was summing the hours up, but not adding it as time. I don't know much about this, customer created this on her own. We don't have anybody at our company that does this. There is some JavaScript code in there to do the calculation, but I have no idea how I know if there is a problem with it and how to make it work and calculate properly. Any help much appreciated! Thank you!Before I messed with it and added the last time to see if it was working and how, it has 6.9 in there to total up the top 3. I noticed there is just no code for the total field. All the other Total hours Fields had a section of that JavaScript code below, but the bottom Total hours for day didn't have JavaScript math in it which is why it's not working. The customer did have Sum selected which is why it was adding them wrong. I took that off, but I have no idea how to put a calculation in that field. I mean what the JavaScript Calculation should be. Hoping somebody could b

This detail appears to be missing from the documentation(PDF_Library.General (PDFL)).

I am using VBA in Outlook 2016 Windows to print the current Email Message using Adobe PDF to a create a PDF document. The PDF automatically opens after being created.  I want to avoid the opening of the PDF. When creating the PDF manually, I can prevent the document from opening by un-selecting "View Adobe PDF results".  From Adobe web site, https://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/Wizard/WizardDC/pdfprinter.html it describes setting the SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat Distiller\DC\ViewPrintOutput key to 0 to suppress opening the PDF after creating.  I make the change, but the PDF continues to open.  I have tried making the change both under HKLM and HKCU.  Appreciate if anyone could help figure out how to avoid PDF document from opening.

Hi. Is there any API samples on how to create a dialog window/create the side panel in Acrobat?I would like to create a dialog window for the user to input their name, age, etc. rather than directly entering in the field. Or it can be a side panel for the user to input the values that they want.Any advice?I appreciate your advice.

I'm not 100% percent sure how to word this, but I need a dropdown menu to show only a certain selection based on a field. I will explain what i'm doing. I have a form with three fields. One is Manufacturer, One is Product, and the third is Product color. The Manufacturer and Product field automatically are populated based on a checkbox selection I have of products. So based on what they click on the checkbox, I want the drop-down to only display product colors based on the Product that was chosen. Is there a way to do this? Maybe some sort of script? I am open to all ideas or better alternative on how to approach this.I inserted screen shots of the form I have to give you a better idea.
