Acrobat SDK

I keep getting this error and adobe wont work

Hello,I had a look through the forums but could not find any topics on my specific needs even though I think it is a rather common question (?).My idea is this:I would like to have an action that automatically highlights certain words, phrases etc.Which phrases are hightlighted shoud be dependend on a (for example) CSV-file which I choose during the action.The CSV-file has two columns: One for the words which are to be highlighted, the other one with the contents of the hightlights; possibly a third one which defines exceptions..Is this possible in Acrobat? If so, how to start? We use Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro.Thank you!Kind regardsFabsen

We have a .NET program and want it to convert html file into pdf file. I wonder if the Acrobat SDK has any .NET api or Windows command line to do so?And for licensing, we have purchased Adobe Acrobat DC standalone version (that means not the cloud version). Does it come with Acrobat SDK license?

I have a timesheet where TimeOut - TimeIn - Break = Total Hours.  I can get this to work but, I need an if clause for working past midnight.  If (TimeOut<TimeIn) +24 or If (TotalHours<0) +24.  I do not know JavaScript (obviously).

bkmChildsParent.createChild currentDepartment, "this.pageNum=" & dPageNum, dCountThis code creates a bookmark with the associated javascript action. I didn't realize that these javascript actions don't seem to be working when the PDF is opened in a browser. Is there a way to get the browser to work with a javascript action, or is there a way to add a non javascript action to these bookmarks within vba?

Hello, all!I am trying to figure out why my supervisor's PDFs occasionally do not work correctly. He signs the PDF, and then he forwards it to his supervisor for his signature...And the unfortunate news here is that he is unable to digitally sign the PDF for some odd reason. Something about the IBM version or whatever that means. So, instead of him digitally signing the files, he prints it. And when he does that...My supervisor's digital signature disappears.Look at this print preview, the [highlighted] bottom right box is empty. But if you look at the file itself, it is included.Key note is that this happens sporadically, and I am not certain as to what is causing the issue. So, hopefully someone here can help out? Many thanks in advance!!

I have nine fields and show/hide them. Three drop down to select Quantities. Three Text fields for the Item Price and three Total fields. What I was trying to figure out is, a way to use one field to show the Total amount of the Quantity fields and Item Price fields when visible. Not calculate the Quantity and Price fields when hidden.Presently, I have fields to calculate each group of fields and use this script in the Total field, (it works but it's not exactly what I want to do)var f = this.getField("ItemPrice1");var g = this.getField("ItemQuantity1"); event.value = f.value * g.value;What I'd like to accomplish is when ItemPrice1 and ItemQuantity are visible then to calculate that. When ItemPrice2 and ItemQuantity are visible then to calculate that. But, in the same Total field and reset the fields that would be hidden.With my vast javascript knowledge (not), I've tried to put this script in the Total field, but guess what, it didn't work to calculate. Only the Item3 is calculated.va

I'm am trying to change my 'Save As' Adobe PDF Preset away from "Illustrator Default" (which is what every new PDF file defaults to for me).

Hi AllI am trying to create a "button" that can be placed on various pages of a document.I need the script to allow for creating  the paperclip icon c/w file name  shown on the specific page(s) that I would like it inserted on. Previous versions of Acrobat used to have a listing in the "Execute a menu item" that would allow the button to insert a file into specific page locations.I've tried some basic scripting but my amateurish skills are lacking. Can anyone help me out? Please resond to Scott@gprnow.comMuch appreciatedCheersScott Per Mike

Had anyone used/created/found code which controls advance child bookmarks during pdf merging using VBA for Microsoft Access 2016?

(another newb questions...)Like to fill in several form fields based on whether or not a checkbox is checked. I have it working now using individual calculated scripts in the individual field. for example:if (this.getField("checkbox").value=="Off") {      event.value = null;  } else {      event.value = "ABCXYZ";  }  However, it is possible to assign the value(s) just from the CheckBox field itself?

Hi.I've designed a very simple form in Acrobat Pro DC, with a bit of JavaScript, which is intended to handle risk evaluation in program management.The functionality works in the following applications installed at my organization: Acrobat Pro DC; Acrobat Standard 11; Adobe Reader 11.My client is using Adobe Reader DC, with JavaScript enabled, but none of the script functions at all - neither the Calculate scripts nor the Mouse Up actions.There is a grid composed of 25 squares (for which I'm using a radio button, "Current_Risk", with 25 choice elements); there are two associated dropdown fields, "Current_Likelihood" and "Current_Consequence". The choices are labeled by likelihood and consequence - for instance, L5C1, or L2C3.Setting both Current_Likelihood and Current_Consequence sets the value of Current_Risk, selecting one of the radio button choices.Clicking on one of the radio button choices sets the appropriate likelihood and consequence ratings in the drop downs.There's also a but

I setup a dynamic stamp which I need to use quite often as a favorite in Adobe Acrobat XI.  When I closed the program and opened it up again, it wasn't there and I needed to set it up as a favorite again.  I've noticed that this is a recurring pattern.  Is there a way to avoid this?

i know I can open up each PDF file manually and view the File / Properties / Desc info like Title, Author, Keywords, Number of Pages, etc.I want to do this programmatically and pull this data into a database which can be used as a simple document management system.Please note I said SIMPLE, I don't know why it is so difficult to explain this concept to support that over complicates the issue.  You would think Adobe would provide a simple interface to do this with Reader or the full Acrobat.Here is the scenario.  I have thousands of Acrobat PDF documents on my hard drive.  Each PDF file I know in the files Header maintains this metadata information of Document Properties. I want to retrieve this information so as to create a document database catalog or management system. Initially I have some 15,000 pdf documents I need to track.Here is a picture of the information I want to obtain programmatically via an automatic scripted process.  Or if their is a utility that wi

Similar to how we would use var quads = this.getPageNthWordQuads(pg,word); is there a way to get screen coordinates for other objects in the pdf document? (pictures, etc)Thanks in advance!

  Hi,I have a question regarding the Acrobat Software Developer Kit and Adobe Acrobat user licenses. We developed a text analysis software prototype for the internal use of one of our client. For one specific step of the process, we need to extract text from pdf to html : Our solution uses Acrobat SDK IAC to automate this exportation process. We now want to deploy the software on the company’s information system: * The software will be hosted on the company’s internal servers. * The frequency of Acrobat IAC API calls is estimated to be 20 calls per day. I would like to know what license is needed for this kind of use: * Is it possible to use a regular user license for this purpose or do we need a specific one for professional uses ? * Is the number of calls to the API limited with the regular license ? Thank you in advance for your answer. Best regards 

I want to apply a spot color to an image object(PDEImage). - Case gray scale, apply a spot color to the whole image. - Case binary image, apply a spot color to only a black part(value == 0).I programed as follows, but  a spot color isn't applied to an image object.But, when I check it by the Output Preview, the name of a spot color is applied.It could be applied by processing similar to PDEPath.Is processing needed additionally to apply it to PDEImage? Or is it necessary to use other API?Would you let me know, please?-------------------------------------------------------------------// create PDEColorSpaceColorSpaceSettingInfo colorSpaceSettingInfo = comEnvironment.getObjectObjColorInfo();PDEColorSpace colorSpace = createRGBSpotColor(pdDoc, colorSpaceSettingInfo);// create PDEColorValuePDEColorValue pdeColorvalue;memset(&pdeColorvalue, 0, sizeof(PDEColorValue));pdeColorvalue.color[0] = FloatToASFixed(Tint / 100.0f);// apply PDEColorSpace and PDEColorValue to PDEImagePDEGraphic

I have an Action Wizard custom action (used previously in Acrobat Pro XI), which uses some JavaScript to add previous/next page, print and home buttons on every page of a document. This worked well before upgrading to DC, but now fails to complete if the document size goes beyond a handful of pages. I really do need a quick solution to this issue, any idea why this is not working in DC? I have tried to run this same custom action on Mac and PC versions of Acrobat Pro DC with the same result.
