Acrobat SDK

Just discovered that several boxed versions of XI Pro we purchased a few months ago have serial numbers that are either counterfeit or were somehow removed from the Adobe database for being "not legitimate"  A massive hardware project that took a few extra months to complete is the reason why we're only finding this out.  I spoke with our national IT services providers and they say counterfeit XI Pro licenses are a huge problem right now, and some e-tailers with legitimate licensing rights to Adobe have been victim.  The e-tailers are Tier-1 resellers with national rights to Adobe products...whatever that means. However...every single unit we've purchased on eBay works fine.  Go figure.We are prohibited from using DC for a variety of reasons.  I now face the possibility of asking our organization to abandon PDF as a long-term approved archival format because we cannot work with the PDFs the way we need to.  This would impact about 275 million documents in

Is there a way to capture the date in which a user fills in the first field on a adobe form?

I know previous versions of Acrobat Standard had the JavaScript console, but I cannot find it in Standard DC.  I've checked the Enable Acrobat JavaScript box in Preferences but I cannot find the JavaScript options in the Tool menu.  Was this feature removed from Standard and it's now only available in Pro?

Hi thank you for reading,I just started using forms central and acrobat for editing forms after learning that Outlook Developer is only for total experts who prefer an outdated developer platform haha. I could make the form but the behind the scenes scripting and validating etc. are difficult for me because I don't know anyone with great IT knowledge. I have no coding experience besides knowing where to paste an exact code I need.With the submit button in Acrobat, I have an ask for you all that I haven’t been able to find exactly. I understand the idea of mailto: as a URL to open the form in outlook.In my form, I have To and CC fields that require an email address. Each employee (hundreds of them) will be filling in different To and CC email fields on the form I made. They do not have the capacity to create the script to mail automatically to their supervisors, and I can't go help them all set it up.What code would I paste in the URL to pull the form’s To and CC fields over to Outlook

In my Adobe XI document I have a filed named Date.For the Date field, it has a simple calculation script to display today's date in the dd/mm/yy format (IE 22/02/17):var today = new Date();event.value = util.printd("dd/mm/yy", today);Then I have a custom format script to take the value from the calculation script and format it to display as 22ND DAY OF FEBRUARY, 2017if (event.value) {    var d = util.scand("dd/mm/yy", event.value);    if (d!=null) {        event.value = getCustomDateString(d);    }}function getCustomDateString(d) {    var ordinalSuffix;    if (d.getDate()==1 || d.getDate()==21 || d.getDate()==31)        ordinalSuffix = "st";    else if (d.getDate()==2 || d.getDate()==22)        ordinalSuffix = "nd";    else if (d.getDate()==3)      &

HI everyone,I am trying to create a pdf form where user are asked to input in the field, sign the document and submit the signed form via email. I have used "Submit a form" action to email to certain address (e.g. [deleted by mod] subject=Send this form).

I am using Acrobat Pro.Thanks,Bipin

Not sure where to ask this so feel free to move it to the correct area.I'm using Adobe Acrobat Pro DC and there is a toolbar to the far right where the scroll bar normally goes.  How do I move it to another location or remove it?  I don't want to hide it.  When I move the mouse to the right I want to be able to scroll down using the scroll bar.  I keep opening the tool taskbar because of it's location on the far right.  It's annoying, inconvenient and counter productive.  I need to either move it to the far left, to the tool bar location above or to remove it completely.  How do I do that?

I would like to run a script on doc/open that will import some data for later use. Under "Javascript/Document Actions" there are listed "Document Will Close" "Document Did Close" and a few others that I might attach a script to, but no "On Document Open".It must be possible to do this, but I am not able to find it. Any suggestions please?I am using Acrobat DC ProBill

Hello all,I hope to make my question as concise as possible without making my post too lengthy. Please let me know if anything is unclear.My goal from a 1000 foot view: Create a PDF checklist that managers will fill out for new hires. On this checklist they will select a check box for each system that they would like their new employee to have access to. The checklist will then be submitted to the Help Desk via email for account creation. A Help Desk technician will look over the form to ensure that all requested systems are actually appropriate for the new employee (e.g. a manager in the call center should not be checking the boxes to grant access to the various IT administration systems for their new hire, and it will be the Help Desk Technician's job to catch such a scenario). The Help Desk technician then launches a PowerShell script that will interact with the form, automating the setup of the various requested systems.How submission occurs: In my form there is a Submit button tha

Hi,I am a developer, we have a web application developed using asp.net and mostly we use IE and OS is Windows 8.1.There is a page that shows embed pdf files, but latest update is giving issues. Actually it shows pdf but after showing embed pdf there are other links in web page so user can navigate when user clicks on that IE becomes not responding and an acrobat icon pops up and that also becomes not responding. After few seconds(some 30-40 seconds) of delay that acrobat pop-up vanishes later web application navigates properly. This is happening for all embed PDF with latest version of Acrobat reader DC.Just for my refernce verified installing Foxit reader, there above scenarios works fine.It was working till latest update but not working now

I have a row of text fields that need to be rotated based on another field value.From this:To this:I've read through the forum and the only option I can see is to resize each text box? But that would be a lot of coordinates to script!Cheers in advance(P.S. Each text field has a custom calculation script and are individually hidden/shown based on another fields value, so they need to be text fields as far as I can see as opposed to image/button fields!)

Hello, I have a document which has 2 buttons a send via e-mail, and a print button.There is a single text input that has to be valideated for a 9 digit number.I'm using Javascript for the print and email sending and for the validation as well.My problem is, that the buttons are checking if the field is empty, but if I type in the correct amount of numbers, and DON'T click out of the text field the button will rercieves it as empty thus sending the error message.Any help would much appreciated. My javascript skills are decent, but I'm not familiar with Adobe JS.Thank you.

I need to write script which uses adobe's accessibility check functionality. I can do that easily through UI, I need to do the same from script so that I shouldn't open up UI every time. Any suggestions will be highly appreciated.

I am using Adobe ColdFusion on my client's server and I noticed that I cannot populate noneditable forms. I am looking for a way to programmatically prepare a form to make it have editable fields. Basically, I am looking to duplicate Adobe Acrobat PRO DC's 'prepare form' behavior via a scripting language? I would not mind if there is a Java solution to this. I am not sure if there is an API for Adobe Acrobat Pro DC but I would be interested in that as well. Any advice? Thanks in advance!

The following is happening for many of my users running Windows 7.The print both to printers on a Windows 2012r2 Print server and also to printers attached via IP address.All of the users have Acrobat DC with the latest updates.The problem: When the user selects print the print dialog box comes up. When they then click print the box closes. It never spools or does anything else..What I have done to trouble shoot:1.

Uninstalled Reader and reinstalled Acrobat--same result.4. Ran the Clean Acrobat and Reader tool and then reinstalled--same result.5. Removed printer off of server and reinstalled printer using latest installer--same result.6. Tried printing to different printers--same result.7. Turned off any security settings in Acrobat--same result8. I ran through all the steps in adobe's printing troubleshooting steps, with the exception of

I made the following post a few days ago: Re-Order Pages to Match Bookmarks​, but I have now run into a different problem related to the same project. I was able to get the pages re-ordered to match the order of the bookmarks by doing the following:Loop through all bookmarks that have a "GoTo" actionAdd each page to a new PDDocument object in the order that the bookmarks appearPDDocInsertPages(newDocument, moveAfterPage, originalDocument, currentPageNumber, 1, includeFlags, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL);Replace the pages in the original document with the correctly ordered pages in the new documentPDDocReplacePages(originalDocument, 0, newDocument, 0, PDAllPages, true, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL);However, now that the pages have been re-ordered, the destination page for each bookmark is incorrect. I have pages labeled 1 through 10. I moved page 7 to be the second page in the document, so the order is 1-7-2-3-4-5-6-8-9-10. But now the bookmark for "page 7" still points to the page at position 7 (w
