Hi,I am encountering an issue with working with 16 + digit numbers. I have a script that converts the number from figures to words. However I use a math.floor calculation on the figures to separate out the decimals it rounds incorrectly. Is there a simple way to deal with such long numbers.  Or am I going to have to deal with this in the scrip and take out the Quadrillion values and compute them separately.Would share the script but it is on my work computer.

We receive many PDF invoices from suppliers.  I would like to provide our A/P folks of quickly adding a blank page to the document with an approval stamp with the following fields:  account no, approval signature, received date, processed data, and description.  I would then like users to be able to request signatures from other users through Acrobat DC.I apologize if this has been asked before.  I wish I could contact Adobe sales and support for this information, but they don't have an email address listed.  I would happily pay for support if I knew who to contact.  There are no email addresses listed anywhere.  I'm not sure I want to spend the day waiting on the phone.

Hi,Adobe PDF version may keep varying depends on the customer..Hardware - VM Server with good configurationRequirement / Scenario (PDF may be application form based or native text which is generated by the system)Tabular data without border (border less)Checkbox data in all different formsspecial charactersText inside the ImageFree text (like signature)Solution Tried:We are using C# code through which we have tried to read the data from the PDF for the above scenario and didn't get the expected output.we used ITextSharper library and used the same from C# to extract the content.Any other library or suggestion would be really helpful.

I have used insert page from a document containing document level javascripts.This loads the document level javascripts into a new PDF which is a great way for users I support to add special functionality into their documents.The latest example is a JS that adds a date/time stamp as a button to the footer of each page. The requirement is however that this be triggered on the WillPrint document action. Unfortunately document actions do not seem to be respected in the new PDF from the imported PDF.I have tried adding this as a document level JS without the function wrapper but it does not set the trigger in the documentthis.setAction({cTrigger: "WillPrint", cScript: addDateStamp});Any suggestions that will allow for adding the functionality to the PDF without the user having to manually edit or add document actions...ThanksBen

Hi!! I am creating a PDF for my primary students, I´m teaching them Additions,  and I´d need them to move pictures (addens) from side to side. Is that possible with some script? If not, I´ll try showing and hidden buttons. Thanks!!!

Hi. I have Adobe Acrobat DC and SharePoint 2013. I need to send shared reviews using those two things. I have done this a thousand times before but since DC came out and SP was "upgraded" it's all messed up.  I have a library waiting to receive the review documents on SP; but when I try to send them through the tool "Send for Shared Comments" I'm told "The file destination provided is not valid."  I can't see anymore how to provide what they are asking for as I used to do in Acrobat 9. Does anyone know what to do? By the way, when I look in Preferences, "Shared Review and Form Data Collection" is set to "MySharePoint Workspace (send as link).

The form I'm working on has 30-some row with multiple similar calculations per row, so I'm hoping to make life easier for myself. Each row has its own prefix for the field names and the rows contain (mostly) the same fields.I have the following simple calculation:if (getField("rowSomething-FieldName").value=="Yes") event.value = getField("rowSomething-Number").value * getField("rowSomething-Price").value;if (getField("rowSomething-FieldName").value!="Yes") event.value = "0";rowSomething-FieldName is a checkbox, rowSomething-Number contains a quantity and rowSomething-Price contains ... a price.What I'd like to do is declare a variable that equals rowSomething and then call that in the calculation. That way, when I copy & paste the code, I only need to edit the row's name once instead of 4 times. I'm no coder, however, so I can't get it done and most examples I've found are much more complex than this.

I'm trying to create a form with:1. a series of numerators and denominators to calculate2. if the field is left blank, it is not included in the calculation3. the calculation to be updated in real time, and not wait for each field to have a number in it before it calculates.This is the only calculation in the form, so changing the calculation order is not used.In the document javascript, I have    this.calculateNow();and in the custom calculation script for the field, I have    (function () {       var v1 = +getField("Text1").value;    var v2 = +getField("Text2").value;    var v3 = +getField("Text3").value;    var v4 = +getField("Text4").value;    var v5 = +getField("Text5").value;    var v6 = +getField("Text6").value;    var v7 = +getField("Text7").value;    var v8 = +getField("Text8").value;    var v9 = +getFiel

I have two fields that I am multiplying in Acrobat CC (text4 * text5). This represents the total my company will pay towards holiday gifts for sales reps, but this amount can not exceed 250. So even if the results is more than 250, the answer can not show more than 250.

I'am trying to round the sum of two fields in Adobe Acrobat to the closests 1/16th or 0.0625? I am not familiar enough with javascript to create a custom script.

I have created a from where by I make a selection from a dropdown list and it puts a sentence into a text field from the export value. I am using the following code in a custom format script that someone helped me with.var f = event.target;var pos = f.currentValueIndices; //position sélectionnéethis.getField("Speaking").value = f.getItemAt(pos, true);I want the text field to be able to add a second or third line of text from a different dropdown menu. I this possible?Currently the new selection will just overwrite the previous selection. Each dropdown menu has 5 options- limited, basic, sound, high, outstanding and I want a different sentence to insert for each selection. On another post someone told me to do a custom calculation script for the textfield as follows:var v1 = this.getField("Speaking").valueAsString;var v2 = this.getField("Writing").valueAsString;if (v1=="sound" && v2=="basic") event.value = "Speaking sound outcome\nWriting basic outcome";But to do this I would ha

Where is AVExtensionMgrRegisterNotification, or AVAppRegisterNotification ?I am working on the first Adobe Reader plugin, and wondering where the APIs such as AVExtensionMgrRegisterNotification, or AVAppRegisterNotification are from?On Windows, I looked into all the Adobe Reader DLLs, such as AcroRd32.dll, but cannot find any exported functions like above.So how can the plugins access these APIs, if they are not exported in any DLLs?Thanks

I have made a calculation for a field:this.getField("Rental Year 3").value = (this.getField("Rental Year 2").value * (this.getField("Annual Increase").value /100)) + this.getField("Rental Year 2").value;However, I only want the calculation to apply if another field (Lease Term) has a value greater than or equal to 3. If the value is less than three I would like this field to equal 0.How do I add this condition?

Hello EveryoneThank you to everyone in this forum, I have found everything most helpful. Great community. I am struggling though at the moment, with understanding the Javascript Reference Manual for Acrobat DC.When a page opens I have a Javascript automatically run.What I want it to do is print the last 2 pages of the PDF silently to a non default printer.This is what I have so far. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong or wether this is even possible?I am not sure even where to state what pages I need.this.print({bUI: false, bSilent: true, bShrinkToFit: true});var pp = this.getPrintParams();pp.interactive = pp.constants.interactionLevel.automatic; pp.printerName = "EPSON XP-442 445 Series";this.print(pp);Thanks everyone for any help.Kindest regardsJon

I am trying to limit the number of checkbox choice selected on a PDF document and have two sets of boxes where I would like to allow 7 choices of 9 boxes and 1 of 2 boxes on the same page. I have looked at a previous archived forum at https://acrobatusers.com/forum/forms-acrobat/limit-number-checkboxes-selected/ but having no experience in JavaScript, I cannot get it to work.

code = this.getField("Dropdown2").value;if (event.value=="link) {this.getField("Dropdown15").value =code;}i want this.getField(" AFTER TWO TABD or AFTER TO FIELDS AUTOMATICALLY ").value =codeit is possible ?

Let me explain the best I can. I use the Acrobat Reader DC on a PC system at work. When I went to open my PDF forms (I created) I got this window saying something like this "processing 5 pages...please wait". I didn't think anything of the window thinking it was just updating the Reader. But, I soon found out my document and embedded javascripts were altered. Meaning, some of the fields wouldn't let me enter text, or some of the drop downs wouldn't allow me to enter items and item prices. Also, every drop down would drop down, then close, then drop down when clicked and the drop down list is twice as long, the drop downs list shows approx 20 to 30 items. In the past, I mean like just yesterday, everything worked fine. I don't like what happened to the Reader and it interferes with my day at work. Does this sounds familiar. Has anyone encountered this or can someone tell me how to fix this problem so I can get my documents back to normal?Can someone shed some light on if Adobe does upda

I have been working on a form in LiveCycle recently, and had a request to add a button a user can click, that will bring up another form that is attached to it.I used to do this with ease in Acrobat Pro, by adding an attachment, and then creating a button that will open that attachment, however I am a bit stumped as to how to do this in LiveCycle, and since my form was created in LiveCycle, I can no longer edit it or add this functionality in Acrobat Pro.Just to reiterate / clarify, here is what I am trying to do:- Embed another document into my LiveCycle Form (i.e. - Combine them, though the second document isn't visible until you click a button.)  - Add a button into my LiveCycle Form which when clicked, will open the second formThanks in Advance

I have a form that will be submitted via email.I have a number of Required Fields on the form that are validated automatically prior to submission, but there is one section that's a bit tricky and may require some JavaScript that I haven't been able to work out despite searching these forums.There are 3 checkboxes on my form that work a bit like radio buttons, but not.Checkboxes "A" and "B" can be selected independently or together, but checkbox "C" can only be selected on it's own.I have a JavaScript to automatically de-select both "A" and "B" if checkbox "C" is selected.I have another JavaScript that automatically de-selects "C" if either "A" or "B" (or both) are selected.This requirement prevents me from making any of these checkboxes "Required Fields"But I need to verify that at least one of the three boxes is selected before the form can be submitted.Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks, Steve

I am using Acrobat Pro DC 2015 Classic in a Windows 7 environment. I have made an honest effort to figure out how to do this and referred to the API and several articles, but I guess that am missing too much basic education. My organization uses a script to change redaction overlay scripts for example from "V1" to "V01". I want to be able to run the script from an action instead of from a button. I thought what I needed to do was to replace the "app.addToolButton" to the end with a simple call like RedactionCodeToV01(); but that doesn't seem to work (undefined).I can't figure out how to change the script to run it independent of the button. I've tried to run other options in the console without success (picture "a thousand monkeys typing"). Here is the original javascript function with toolbutton. function RedactionCodeToV01(){  this.syncAnnotScan();  var annots = this.getAnnots();  for each (annot in annots)  {  if (annot.type == "Redact")  {  

I wanted to know if it was possible, using the OCR capabilities of Acrobat, to copy hand written text from a PDF and paste it into a text document. All of my attempts have ended up with something like "l CJ C, (e yu,," when the name being copied is Luciene. If this is not possible through Acrobat, would you be able to recommend some software that has either OCR or ICR capable of doing this?Thank you for reading.
