I have a Lotus Notes Application which I use LotusScript (Similar to VB) to take a PDF template and fill it with data and save. Our company is moving away from Lotus Notes and I am moving the application into Oracle APEX. I have been trying to find coding examples to do what I have done in Notes in either Javascript or ActiveX. I currently have Acrobat Pro and will be getting DC sometime soon. Can anyone provide any information where to find some examples?I have searched Google and Adobe but everything I am finding deals with C#, Java, or other software. I am limited to PL/SQL, javascript, or using ActiveX.

I'm suddenly seeing that some laser printers are printing black blobs in PDFs that I create. It seems to be a font issue as the blobs are only in text and look like mutations in the font. My commercial printer doesn't seem to have problems with the files, and the files print with no problems on ink jet printers. The files also print OK when I use "print as image". That's OK for me, but I need to create files that my clients can print without worries. Is there a setting I'm missing?
I need some help but I'm not sure this is possible.I have a fillable PDF document that will need three different people to 'approve' or 'acknowledge' it.I have a check box ('ProjectManagerAcceptance') 'required' (when they check on the box the 'date' field (ProjectManagerDate) is automatically populated - already have this script and it is working) and the person then types their name in the 'Project Manager Name' field and they are done and they save it. But once it is saved I want the second check box to become 'required' so the next person has to acknowledge it (date is automatically populated when 2nd checkbox is checked) and once they save it the third and final box is set to 'required' for the third person.Below I have shown the 1st check box required, then the 2nd one I want required only after the the first one has been checked and saved, followed by the 3rd one to become required after the second one has been checked and saved.If I set all three check boxes as 'required' than

I have no idea how to make these javascript formulas. Thank you!!!
My team produces a software product with PDF help. We create the PDF help in InDesign and use javascript to create automatic named destinations from the table of contents to be able to open the pdf help to specific locations from our program. For some reason, InDesign attaches some random digits to the end of all of our named destinations. They are not visible in the named destination list in InDesign, but when you export the pdf, they appear. From what I can gather online, this is a new problem introduced in Creative Cloud 6 but I don't see any responses from Adobe regarding them acknowledging or fixing this problem. Can you please address this?As a work around, my team would like to deal with these random digits by extracting the list of named destinations from the pdf so we can link to them appropriately. I see this question asked many times with no actual answers/help provided. They say "use the sdk; it has examples."I downloaded the SDK and have
I see "GetFileName" listed for PDDoc in the SDK documentation, but the call PDDocGetFileName is not defined and when I look at PDCalls.h there is indeed no PDDocGetFileName. Why is that? Is there another way I can obtain the file name from AVDoc or PDDoc?

I just purchased Acrobat DC yesterday, so I am VERY new to this software. I created a fillable form and I'm trying to follow the tutorial to add a clear from button to my form. But, I seem to only have a radio button option... not a button that has an "action" option in the properties. What I am doing wrong to not have that button available? Does what I purchased not come with it??? Thanks!
Hi all, I am having a strange issue when opening PDFs created in AutoCAD. If a user creates a PDF through their AutoCAD program and emails it to me, i get the "Reader could not open .pdf because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example it wasn't set as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)This only happens with files creates in AutoCAD, if the same user sends me a PDF created in Word or elsewhere, I can open it without issue. Additionally, if said user opens the file that is they emailed they can open it without issue. in the end, I ask for them to resend the .pdf and it usually works, it is an extremely inefficient workflow though. Can anyone assist?
