In Acrobat X, is there a way to create a java script that would open up the print dialog and select black and white printing, and print the document? We have a color printer, and it is cheaper to print in B&W, and there is no color in the form being printed. We are currently changing it for this document every time we print it, we don't want to change the default because we do a lot of color as well. I'd like to assign the script to a button and add it to the form.If there is a different way to accomplish this, I am open to suggestions.Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Hi,I am trying to create an autofill date field on an Acrobat form that does not change once calculated, ie. the user opens the form and the date populates automatically, the user saves the form but on subsequent opening, the original date remains.So far I have successfully created a Javascript in Page Properties Actions to print the date on opening the form but I cannot find a way of prevent further changes.  I have tried various scripts to do this but none worked for me.I also tried creating a field level calculation which worked fine in so much that it populated the field with the date as required but I couldn't clear the form before saving it for use.  I found a debugging script to enable me to clear the field - great - but after saving and trying to use the form, the field remained blank.  So I'm back to square one.  I don't really mind if the field completes on opening the form or on a mouse click, as long as the date does not change if the form is reopened on

Hello,I am writing a C++ Acrobat plug-in and I am new to the Acrobat SDK.What my plug-in currently does: Recursively iterates through all bookmarks, starting at the root, and gets the title for each bookmark.My goal: Determine the page number associated with each bookmark (if there is one) and then re-order all the pages in the document according to the order of the bookmarks.My problem: After reading through the Acrobat SDK, I cannot find a way to determine the page number for a given bookmark. So far I have tried:// get the action for the current bookmarkPDAction bookmarkAction = PDBookmarkGetAction(aBookmark);// get the view destination for the current bookmark's actionPDViewDestination bookmarkViewDestination = PDActionGetDest(bookmarkAction);Am I headed down the right path? Does the PDViewDestination contain some other object that will give me the page number for this bookmark? Or at least let me determine if there is a page number for the bookmark?Or maybe I need to actually "go

I'm experiencing and issue in the sample project "ExternalWIndow".http://download.macromedia.com/pub/developer/acrobat/sdk/dc/sdkDC_v1_win.zip I've slightly modified the code in a way that I could have two documents open at once. But when i close one of the documents acrobat dc crashes.I added the following code to IACWndProc()if(openInExt){ASFileSys fileSystem = ASGetDefaultUnicodeFileSys();ASPathName pathName = ASFileSysCreatePathFromCString(ASGetDefaultUnicodeFileSys(), path);AVDocOpenFromFile(path, fileSystem, ASTextFromPDText("sometext"));openInExt = false;return DefWindowProc (hwnd, msg, wParam, lParam);}openInExt = true;I also commented out the WM_Close code so that the previously opened document would stay open but after closing the document opened via AVDocOpenFromFile all other documents close and DC crashes. This only happens with Acrobat DC and not Reader.What am i doing wrong?

Hi allI've created an interactive pdf that activates/shows different layers when you press the different buttons. The content works fine on the computer but doesn't work on either Apple or Android devices. When touching the screen it simply brings out the normal phone menu, or zooms in when double-tapping.Can somebody please let me know if it's possible to change this as everyone here uses Apple office phones (except me, I prefer Android) and sometimes they want to read this thing on their mobile device and I'd like to make it possible.Cheers all.

We have a webdav server.I can start Acrobat DC (or Acrobat Reader), go to File -> Open, and where it says "File Name:" I can enter the URL of a file on my webdav server, e.g. http://webdav.mycompany.com/docs/myfile.pdfIt opens perfectly, I can edit the file, and I CAN SAVE IT BACK TO THE SERVER - because this is webdav (something that apparently a lot of people don't know exists... see for example the final reply here: https://acrobatusers.com/forum/collaboration-commenting/open-pdf-file-http-url-through-command-line-option/  ) All well and good.The problem is that if I try to do the same thing by opening acrobat from the command line, with the URL as a parameter, like so:> acrord32 http://webdav.mycompany.com/docs/myfile.pdf or> acrord32 "http://webdav.mycompany.com/docs/myfile.pdf"I get:There was an error opening this document.

How do I add the function for my form to self calculate cells?  I have several that I want to add together but can't figure it out.  When I'm in "prepare form" I right click on the cell and select properties, but there is not "calculate" option like I see in all the tutorials.  Should I be in "prepare form" for this, or where should I go?Also, why don't I see all the tabs that I can see in the tutorials?  I only have General, Appearance, Position and Options, but in the tutorial I see: General, Appearance, Position, Options, Actions, Format, Validate and Calculate.

We have fillable forms, I want to be able to add a row if the previous one is used. Is this possible with Acrobat or do I need Livecycle. Also, the forms need to be filled in on an Ipad.

I need to set/replace some values into a richText field, and I'm having a problem with the line endings.I am able to set the text, looping through the span objects, but I end up with a single paragraph, all of the line endings are gone.Even just setting the value to itself, without the code to do the text replacements, doesn't work:var spans = event.richValue;event.richValue = spans;orevent.richValue = event.richValue;I end up with the correct content, but all of the line endings are missing. And this is code that I modified from the javascript reference documentation. The code is in the Custom Format Script for the field.Can someone help me with an example of how to replace text (i.e replace '[NAME]' with 'John') in a richtext field and retain the line endings?

I have an application that creates PDF documents with pages containing both a TIFF document and headers and footers rendered with vector text.  Normally when you open a PDF and try to edit it, Acrobat DC Pro will automatically scan and OCR the current page so that you can copy from or edit the page.  However, it refuses to do this on the PDFs generated by my application because of the vector text that exists on the pages.  Is there a way to add the headers and footers in a way that will not prevent DC from auto-OCRing or is there a setting in DC that can change this behavior?
