HiCan anyone help with a javascript for this scenario:I have a full length line of static text which is set in indesign, at the beginning of the line sits a dynamic text form field, within this field we have the following javascript that makes the text within the box dissappear when end user fills in the field.var message = 'final/balloon payment'if (event.value == '') {    event.target.display = display.noPrint    event.value = message} else {    event.target.display = display.visible}PROBLEM (see link) -  The text field when complete leaves empty character space until the static text begins. Is there any way the complete line can be dynamic? So it looks a complete line with no white spaces???http://ftp.splashprinting.co.uk:82/f/Screen%20Shot%202018-01-04%20at%2015.40.47.pngthanks in advance, note I am not a coder, i found the existing script online.

So I've been working at this for awhile.  The situation is that users complete a form inputting their Last name, First name MI.  The problem is they're supposed to include the comma between the Last name and First name but sometimes they don't.  I tested the code below in W3Schools.com "Tryit Editor", and it works fine.  It just doesn't in my PDF file.  Here is what I have so far:function fComma() {    var str = this.getField("01: Name").value;    var res = str.replace(/,|\s+/, ',\n')    this.getField("01: Name").value = res;}And I also don't know where to place the function.  I currently have the function at document level and tried calling it from the Actions tab, the Format tab in Custom Format Script, and I tried it in the Custom Validation Script tab.  None of them are working so I'm betting the script is messed up.Please help.

Please help.  I am new to this and looking for a code to populate a text box with info from another text box by clicking a checkbox, and clearing the text box when the checkbox is unchecked.Thank you in advance.

When I open a JavaScript window in a pdf the box is so large that not only can I not see the 'Accept' and 'Cancel' buttons at the bottom but the in box text is also largely obscured by the following lines like so:If I either play around with the text size on my laptop as a whole I can get all the text and box to display but it's so tiny it's unusable. I've tried selecting 'No-Scaling' in  the Acrobat preferences but this just leads to the same issue that all the text is too tiny to read. I also changed the Acrobat pixels per inch to no avail. Is there a way to scale things to a manual degree rather than just 'Auto-Detect' or 'No-Scaling', or another way to get all the information on screen at a readable size?

When attempting to sign a pdf document using either the ‘Sign Document’ or ‘Place Signature’ button under the ‘Sign & Verify’ tab in Adobe Acrobat X, we are getting a message saying 'There was an error when attempting to commit this signature. The document has not been saved. The file may be read-only or another user may have it open. Please save the document with a different name or in a different folder'. This is after the signature is applied and when the user clicks save in the Save As dialogue box.Additionally, we are also having a second issue, when after applying the signature and clicking save, the document saves ok but the signature does not appear on the document.The preview panel has been turned off and these issue happen intermittently.All help would be appreciated as users are getting frustrated.

I am looking to combine multiple PDFs using the "Interapplication Communication API Reference"The below snippet will combine the documents and preserve the layers it won't give the same results as creating a binder using the UI combine documents buttonThe difference being 1) The combine button creates layers for each PDF document and with the document layers created as sub layers whereas the snippet just created the doc layers without the parent layers as per document name. 2) The button automatically creates bookmarks for each document, the snippet doesn't.Any ideas how to at least get point 1 working. It's for windows and either powershell or vbs would be easiest.Edit: I see the bottom red bottom red arrow is in the wrong place so please use your imagination to put it in the correct place 🙂call mainsub main    Dim app    Set app = CreateObject("AcroExch.App")    Set destDoc = CreateObject("AcroExch.PDDoc")    Set doc

I cannot get exactly 9 digits to pop in Adobe Acrobat using RegEx custom redaction. Or any exact digit for that matter..^[0-9]{9}$-or-^\d{9}$returns zero hits.Example = 456324787This is simplest form and works in every online test and even on Regexbuddy.I can get [0-9]{9} and \d{9} to pop but it gives a ton of false positives. Hence the ^ to start and $ to stop.Example = 0.802738476(don’t want)Example = 802738476.0(don’t want)So is there any reason why Adobe pro redact would not accept the ^ or the $ to clean up my search??I'm editing the SearchRedactPatterns.xml file to do this action.

How do I fill a pdf form from a database?

I would like to automatically identify and edit the headlines of pdf text documents (newspaper articles). As the fontsize of headlines use to be larger than the text body, I could identify the beginning and the end of a headline by screening the fontsize changes of characters. Unfortunatelly I have not yet found a javascript method of dectecting fontsizes, while this information is provided in the UI - even for proprietary fonts. Can anybody help?

Trying to set up a form field that only accepts multiples of 10 by using custom validation script. I tried this without success... Math.ceil(event.value / 10) * 10;I'm a newbie at this so any help is appreciated.Thanks!

Want to add fields to a huge document. I only need to add a few fields.The document has loads of tables so I just want to do it manually without using the "Page Pass" function

I have a form that will be going through several users; one user will be selecting Y/N for 5 different radio buttons which need to affect the value of a 6th button. My experience with Javascript is limited, so while I have an idea as to how, I'm faltering in the specifics.If any of the 5 are "No", I need the 6th radio button to automatically change to the "No" selection. I'm planning on an action triggered by mouse-up on each of the "No's" to run a javascript, which would change the default value of the 6th radio button to "No", but I'm not entirely sure how that should be written.If all of the five are "Yes", the 6th button should automatically change to "Yes". Again, I'm assuming a similar action/javascript as above on each of the "Yes" buttons that would add in some "IF" statements, that way if they're selected in any order the code still works.Thanks for any help you can give!

HiI am using an excel table to fill fields in a pdf after mapping the xml structure of pdf in Excel.This is done via a vba code in excel. In synopsis, excel created a map/dictionary of data, calls in acrobat, opens the form, loads the map.In this loading, the url on the submit button is not getting updated.Any idea on what vba code will ensure that the url of a button on the pdf will also get updated by the values in the excel.Ironically enough the button is available in the xml structure.Any help will be appreciated.Kind regardsAmit
