I would like to create a field on a form for a PO number which would increment by 1 each time the form it opened.  Example - the starting number would be 17001 and and stored in the form then next time the form is opened it would increment to 17002 and stored.

I am not educated at all in javascript so I need the expertise of someone here to help me please!!!I came across this page on the old Adobe Forum pages - https://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/popup-menus-part-i .  This sort of popup menu is exactly what I need.  But I need it to work so that when someone clicks on the choice it either opens a Word document or a webpage.  The Word doc would ideally be an attachment to the PDF.  But if that isn't possible then it could be located in the same folder as the PDF.  The code for the popup menu only works on PDF's saved in the same folder.  How do I make it work for Word doc's and URL's?The above link says:This menu is designed to open PDF documents within a common folder. Note that you’ll want your host document and supporting documents all copied to the same folder. To create a popup menu that opens other documents, add a Button field and then add a Run JavaScript action in the Actions tab. When you click the Add b

Hi,So have the following code in the javascript of an action wizard.  I was just notified that a user is still getting this error even though they only have the one pdf open from which they initiate the action wizard.  It should not give them this error but it is.  Can someone tell me why that would be?  Note I already verified they only have this one pdf open. var d = app.activeDocs; if (d.length > 1){app.alert("This application will not run unless ONLY the 1st pdf file in the batch labeling sequence is open.   Please close all additional pdf's and re-execute the Batch Labeling Application from the Action Wizard.");event.rc  = false;}They are using Adobe Acrobat XI Pro.

I created a form which is an agreement and shows the totals of commissions.  I have everything working but when I try and do an auto populate for a field where the entry is TEXT it doesn't allow it.  I want ALL Fields which would show the TEXT to be auto populated when the initial field is entered. This is where the information would be pulled:FIVE per-cent (5%) of the transaction value or a Minimum Fee of $5,000 per transaction.The fields below would each auto populate based on the input of the above Fields.  I have the two fields with the % and $ working fine.  BUT the First field aboveThis Fee will be paid to Broker as a commission fee for assisting in obtaining properties. The Fee will be ________ per-cent (5% or Minimum of $5,000) paid by the buyer only if there is no fee paid by the selling entity. If there is a Fee paid by the seller of said Real Estate and the fee is less than ________ per-cent ( 5% or Minimum of $5,000 ), the balance of the difference betwe

I am going round in endless circles trying to find the "official" statement about what has happened to Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional.One minute it is working, then one day I get a message saying I must reactivate. I follow the provided instructions, but the online reactivation doesn't work. The phone number provided doesn't work.I end up on a very unconvincing service desk call with someone on Skype. He even asks me for my Adobe password at one point. Pretty poor.So having bought this software and used it happily for a few years, Adobe have the right to take it away from me? Surely that is not right.If for some reason the product has had to be replaced, I am happy to pay a modest upgrade fee, but it is really hard to find out what the replacement product is, and how much it costs.One of the help desk calls wanted to charge me $375 per annum!!!!!!

Hi, as i understand there is a function in Acrobat that allows the user to reduce file size of the PDF document by reducing the Adobe versions the document is compatible with. can i check if there are any sdk, api or licenses available to allow us to incorporate this function into a self-written program?Thanks in advance

I tried modifying the Dynamic file and adding my own dynamic stamp, but now there are absolutely no Dynamic stamps available in the Stamps menu.  I was following a tutorial I found on the web.  How do I at least get my regular Dynamic Stamps back?  There is a Dynamic file in the ENU folder, but it's as if Acrobat doesn't access it.Thanks!

Ik heb volgend probleem. ik krijg van mijn klant pdf-bestand met embedded lettertypes (SegoeUI TrueType CID Identity-H). Als ik de pdf omzet naar ps en daarna terug naar pdf omzet met de standaard adobe programma's, dan zijn op sommige pagina's van de pdf de tekst met dit lettertype onleesbaar geworden. (idem als ik de originele pdf print naar pdf) De originele pdf va de klant is aangemaakt met iTextSharp 4.1.6 by 1T3XT pdf-version 1.4(Acrobat 5.x). Heeft iemand hier een uitleg voor ?

Hi, does anyone know if its possible to write a script to put in the Format > Custom > Customer Format Script section of a Text Field so that only hyperlinks (URL) can be entered?  So, after the link is entered, I can just click on it and bring me to the web page?Thanks!

Is there a way that I could make the month all lower case once the date has been validated? I've tried event.value = event.value.toLowerCase() in the action tab once the field is deactivated and what not...  It may not seem like much but it's a flagrant spelling error in French. Thank you if someone can help.

I am using the script below in a button on the first page of an 8 page document. Its purpose is to flatten the first six pages of the form and leave pages 7 and 8 unaffected by the script. However, all 8 pages are flattened by this script. I am not using and do not need the optional nNonPrint parameter. this.flattenPages({    nStart: 0,    nEnd: this.numPages - 2,    });Am I doing something incorrectly? How can I accomplish my objective of leaving the last 2 pages undisturbed by this script?Also, since the AcrobatUsers.com forum was replaced, I don't believe I have ever received a response to a question I have posted here, whereas before I nearly always received a response. I don't know why I am not receiving response, but if someone responds to this, please send me an email to tell me that you have responded and how I can find your response.Thank you.David DunnDDunn@DavidSDunn.com

Hi All,Please help out me.How would I use JS to open a link, from within a PDF file, into a new window that would have a specified Height and Width?Thank you,Chiranjeevi

Is there a way, with JavaScript in Acrobat, to find the DPI scaling settings of the current display?I'm talking about the "Change the size of text, apps and other items" settings in Windows:Setting this to more than 100% has adverse effects on the text displayed in dialogues I create using app.execDialog().

I wish for my field to display the next sequence of a lettered list, based upon what is displaying in the previous field. My code isn't working at all, I have senseless responses. I hope the image below is clear enough on what I am doing.  Can someone help me make the correction? Thanks!

I am trying to write a plugin to allow me to silently print in the tiled format, is this possible? I do not see any of the settings I would expect and many of the ones that have 'tiled' in the name are now obsolete.Please, any help would be greatly appreciated.ThanksKory

I am having trouble creating a Custom calculation script in my Adobe Acrobat XI Standard. I have a table with fields row_1, row_2, row_3, row_4, row_5, row_6, row_7, row_8, row_9, row_10, row_11, row_12, row_13, row_14, row_15. I have a field that already calculates the mean, that field name is mean. So far I have been able to create this but it does not work:sqrt(((((row_1-mean)^2)+((row_2-mean)^2)+((row_3-mean)^2)+((row_4-mean)^2)+((row_5-mean)^2)+((row_6-mean)^2)+((row_7-mean)^2)+((row_8-mean)^2)+((row_9-mean)^2)+((row_10-mean)^2)+((row_11-mean)^2)+((row_12-mean)^2)+((row_13-mean)^2)+((row_14-mean)^2)+((row_15-mean)^2)))/15)

Hi I generated an interactive PDF using Phantom. I have a short script to enter the current date when clicking in a field. The triggers can be any of Up, Down, etc but I have used MouseUp. This works just fine in a Foxit reader. BUT, when opening the form in Adobe Acrobat XI, the action only triggers on the NEXT click after my initial click in the date field, no matter whether this next click is in another field or in open space.My code is :var f = this.getField("RecvdByDate");f.value = util.printd("dd mmm yyyy", new Date());Thanks in anticipation

The issue is that I want my custom-made Tool Button to allow the user to select where he wants to place his stamp. The stamp I made for him.This functionality exists with the stamps given by Adobe Acrobat. There, when you select a stamp, your cursor turns into the stamp and you can choose where it lands. Is this something I can code or is it not possible?Thank you in advance!
