Acrobat SDK

I need to calculate BSA which is:       Sqrt((Ht*Wt) /3600)    I have tried entering in everything and cannot get it right      

Hi All,Using Adobe Acrobat X ProI don't have any programming or Javascript experience so any help will be greatly appreciated.I am trying to figure out how to do a If/Else calculation in a Adobe form.In the field box named (S4_SU_PS) if I enter any value in that field I want it to calculate the difference.  For example I want it to ignore any value up to >£5.75. So if I was to enter £17 in that box then I would like it to return the difference of £11.25 in that same field.  If a value of lets say a lower amount is entered £4.35 then I would like that to be disregarded. So any thing below <5.75 shows up as £0.00.Otherwise when I come to adding up the value in this filed it will be incorrect as I am only interested in adding anything above the £5.75 if that makes sense.Sorry if haven't been clear in explaining in what I am trying to achieve.Many thanks in advance.RegardsJohn

I'm still looking at a work around to my question from the other day. I think I have come up with various field scripts, validations and equations, but I'm down to one last hiccup.I have a simplified field notation in field3:  field1*field2*.01+field1.The equation works perfectly except that I'd like the user to have the ability to not enter anything in field2 leaving them the option to input field1 and field3, exclusive of the equation. I would also need field3 to remain blank/0 value until either the equation is complete or the user enters a number.Is this possible? Is there a way to "override" a calculation?

I am trying to find the index of a slash plus "v." I tried:if (file_list.indexOf("\\v.")>-1)but it doesn't work. If I take out the \\, it works but finds ALL instances of "v." Any ideas why it wouldn't? This is in a node.js script.Thanks.

Hi,How can i make check boxes generate text? I have 9 check boxes, each with their own individual Export Value. (The Export Value is a paragraph of text.) I would like it so when people choose the check boxes they need, the result is shown in a text field, so I'm trying to write a custom calculation script. My Checkboxes are called "Check Box 1" "Check Box 2" etc, and the results box is called "Strength results".I can get it so I get all the text in one line, and the the word "Off" for each checkbox that isn't checked however I'm wanting:Check Box 1 text (or which ever is selected)Line break \nCheck Box 2 text (or which ever is selected)Line break \nCheck Box 3 text (or which ever is selected)Can you help?Thanks

I do not understand why this will only work if both fields are populated. I would also like to know if I could assign a value to variable based on what fields are populated. This is what I have so far, any help / guidance would be greatly appreciated.// Populates fieild based on whether Team or TeamA is populated. If Team is populated it will set the event.value to team and add values to a set of variable. If Team is Null and TeamB is populated it will add a different value to the variables;var team = this.getField("Team");var teama = this.getField("TeamA");var teamz = this.getField("TeamZ");event.value = "";if(team.value==null&&teama!==null) { teamz.value=teama.value}if(teama.value==null&&team!==null) { teamz.value=team.value}if(teama.value!==null&&team!==null) { teamz.value=team.value}

I'm curious if there is a way to create javascript to ...1) safe a fillable pdf (say... a application)2) have it autosave the doc as a pdf, attach and send a email to a static email addressThis is for someone that will fill out a form online, and when submitting it the form has the script to save/send without the user having to do anything.

Hi -When we create a PDF from documents based on one of our Word templates, auto-numbered numerical digits in 1st-level and sometimes (depending on the document) 2nd-level section headers come into the PDF as xobject images rather than as text characters. This happens in TOC entries as well as the headers in the text. If I manually replace the numbers in the TOC in Word, they come into PDF ok.  If I manually replace the numbers in the section headers, they come into PDF ok but, as one would expect, subsequent sections renumber themselves.Windows 7, Word 2013, Acrobat XI.Anyone ever run into this?  Ideas, suggestions most appreciated. Thanks!

I have coded Excel macros for years.  And I am looking to find a way to retrieve PDF form fields into Excel worksheets.  I haven't bought Acrobat Pro yet (I have seen that I must have PRO to do this) but I am wanting to get a good idea about the coding or methods before I buy...making sure I am not biting off more than I can chew

I purchased Adobe adobe CS 5.0 Design Standard edition and Acrobat 9 Pro separate installers some years ago. I have bought it as downloadable software from adobe licensing server, so I don't have physical cd or dvd.Because my old machine crashed I am trying to install both packages again on clean win 7 machine.I have my CS 5.0 and Acrobat 9.0 pro serials on Adobe Licensing server:Acrobat Professional9.0International EnglishWindowsLIC SNAdobe Design Std5.0International EnglishWindowsLIC SNI can also download and install my CS 5.0 Design Standard edition with no problem.But I don't have any Acrobat 9.0 Pro option to download.I browsed your forum and it suggests this link:Download Acrobat 8 and Acrobat 9 When I download Acrobat 9 Professional and try to install it, installer refuses to accept my serial nr. "Invalid serial Number" it says.I searched little more:I downloaded AcroPro90_efg.exe program, but when I read Creative Suite 5 Design Standard Read Me.pdf, it suggests that I extract a

Hey, everyone,Just a super minor thing, really, but it's mildly annoying from time to time:Every time I view a PDF in Acrobat (Pro DC), there is a thin white border around the edges of the document. (Note: This has nothing to do with transparency—I know about that, and I disabled all those "smoothing" settings in Acrobat's preferences, just to see if it would do anything, and it made no difference.)Is there a way to disable that thin border or am I just stuck with it?I imagine it may be just "an Acrobat thing" (I guess it helps identify the edges of the document if your PDF is also a gray like the pasteboard background), but it always looks like my images/colors/etc. are just a hair short of touching the edges of the page (even though said elements actually bleed off the page -- I just export most of my PDFs without bleeds when I send client comps, so that they see how the file would look in final, trimmed form) and it sometimes looks like a mistake to me.Test image below: If you click

When I try to use Acrobat 9 Pro, I get an error message and cannot procede. "Suite Product Activation Needed  Adobe Acrobat was installed as part of a suite. To enable Adobe Acrobat, please start another component of this suite (such as Adobe Photoshop)." Opening Photoshop CS4 does not help as mentioned it should. The only temporary solution is to uninstall all of CS4 and reinstall using my license. Is there a known solution? The previous answer was to buy a new version of Acrobat.

is there a secure way to view pdfs only on a web site?

Whenever I'm using the highlight tool to highlight scanned pdfs, DC is crashing after about 5 or so highlights and I have to do Cntrl, Alt, Delete and bring up Task Mgr and shut it down.  It's gotten to where I have to click on save after EVERY highlight or else I lose all of the highlights when it freezes up.  VERY ANNOYING, since I'm having to do this 10+ times per day! 😠We are running Windows 7 Enterprise where I work.  Thanks for any advice I can give our IT guys.  They are stumped by this as well

Hi, I have a VB6 app that uses the AcroPDF.dll to view PDF files.Since the update to 15.23.20053 anytime I use the AcroPDF control to view the PDF I get a constantly blinking cursor, it flickers between the arrow cursor and the loading cursor. Also the CPU usage jumps up and slows down the PC.In the background I can see a process called RDRCEF.exe constantly opening and crashing... I think this is the issue.Would anyone have any ideas on how to resolve this issue.As I said this issue only occurs with the update to 15.23.20053.Specific details:AcroPDF.dll - version 15.23.20053RDRCEF.exe - version 15.23.20053Thanks.

I am most likely not the first to discover this, but nonetheless it was a very happy discovery.I work on a Mac but run Windows too, under Parallels. With my routine it is simply best to work on my Acrobat forms on the Mac, with the exception of course when it comes to editing my scripts. Those familiar know that if you use an external Mac text editor with Acrobat, you must quit the text editor in order to return to and use your form.I discovered that if I set the Acrobat JavaScript preferences on my Mac to use a Windows text editor (in my case, I am using notepad++), I lose that very annoying problem of having to quit the text editor to use my forms in editing mode. When I edit a script, whether the script is attached to a field, a Document JavaScript or All JavaScripts, notepad++ opens in Parallels, and when I close the script in notepad++,  leaving notepad++ open, I can then return to and continue working on my form. It appears to work as well as editing a form's script in Windo

I have a document that has an ExpireDate field that needs to auto-populate based on whether one checkbox or another is checked (these could also be radio buttons I suppose). The first checkbox "FCheck" needs to auto-populate Today+365 days in the ExpireDate Field. The second checkbox "MCheck" needs to auto-populate Today+182 days in the ExpireDate Field. If neither box is checked, the field should be blank. (There should never be a situation when both should be checked, so I guess I should change these to radio buttons).I've tried every forum imaginable, but can't seem to nail this down. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

First off, I am NOT a scripter. I've learned from this Forum (lots of script "lifting") and reading. This is a little more complicated for me than the usual question. Users are submitting a form in which they will enter a current salary, a maximum they cannot exceed (required field) and then they will either enter a percentage for the increase that calculates the new salary OR they might enter their own "new" salary which cannot exceed the maximum and shouldn't exceed the 5%, but could (there are conditions outside of the form that would allow more than 5%). I have a hidden field that will automatically calculate the new salary if the user inputs the percentage. When it comes to choice, I don't have the option to require them to fill out one field or the other; some may pick percentage and some may chose to enter the new salary themselves.Is there a way to make both fields "available" to the user (conditional), but exclusively validated. I hope I'm explaining this correctly.The fields

Hi,I'm currently writing a PLUGIN for Adobe Pro using Adobe SDK X! and everything works great. I'm currently facing a challenge when printing using the default printer (windows 7.0) with the API AVDocPrintPagesWithParams()I need to initialize the  AVDocPrintParamsRec structure to insure that the page size is FItToPaper and that the orientation is Portrait. Right now it's always pointing to "Auto portrait/landscape".  The end results is that landscape pages in the document will get rotated to Portrait automatically. I need for the pages to be scaled down and Fit in Portrait mode without any rotation.I was playing with the option  AVDocPrintNupData without any success.Need help,Thanks,
