Acrobat SDK

Hi,I have a PDF form developed in Acrobat 10 Pro. I have several Javascript variables that I want to store in the PDF when the form user saves the file, so I can later open the file and check the values of these variables.Is this possible?Thank you.

Each time I use the virtual Adobe PDF printer to create a PDF file on my Desktop PC running Windows 8.1 Pro-64-bit, i.e., whether it's from a newspaper article on a web page, or from an e-mail, PDF data is being stored in the Windows 8.1 Pro Registry under:HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Distiller\PrinterJobControlHow do I clear the data without messing up the Windows Registry?The list of PDF files specified by their their path is getting really long. There are even PDF listings in the above Registry Key for files no longer on my PC as I'd burned the files to a DVD and deleted them from the original sub-folder in MY DOCUMENTS.I would assume that the PDF listings are for successful print jobs. I also did find one PDF listing for a file that had been mistakenly saved to the wrong sub-folder, which I'd moved to its correct sub-folder in MY DOCUMENTS. However, the file was still listed in the registry as being in the folder it was originally saved into.Any good advice on remedying

I have two text fields: A and B.A is the coefficient of working time and B is the weekly working time in hours.A = B / 40 and B = A * 40.I want to fill one of the text fields A or B and still get a result B or A.How to do it?

Hi, I'd like to know if it is possible to set the height of the toolbox window; I added some toolbox items to the "Plug-In Add-On Tools" category but the window is too small and some of the tools are cut off. It's possible to scroll but client has understandably asked that it resizes correctly to fit all the tools. Is there a way to ensure the window is always large enough?

I'm looking to be able to select a specific field in a PDF and set it's value, as opposed to looping through all of the fields and looking for a specific field name (in VBScript (I'm just a sys admin trying to streamline a task involving filling out many PDF documents, I'm not a developer)In other words, I'd like to replace this (which works):On Error Goto 0FileNm = "C:\Temp\DOC.pdf" Set AVDoc = CreateObject("AcroExch.AVDoc") If AVDoc.Open(FileNm,"") Then    Set pdDoc = avDoc.GetPDDoc()     Set PDFForm = CreateObject("AFormAut.App")    Set x = PDFForm.Fields    For Each myField In x        If myField.Name = "Text100" Then myField.Value = "something interesting"    NextEnd Ifwith something like:On Error Goto 0FileNm = "C:\Temp\DOC.pdf"Set AVDoc = CreateObject("AcroExch.AVDoc") If AVDoc.Open(FileNm,"") Then    Set pdDoc = avDoc.GetPDDoc() 'actual PDF document    Set PDFForm = CreateObject("AFormAut.App")    Set x = PDFForm.Fields    Set myField= x.getfieldname("Text100")&n

I want to change the "file size" of a very large Adobe document, but Adobe X only allows up to 10 MB. How can I change the file size up to 50 MB when splitting a document?

Hello I'm looking to have a section in my interactive form that is blank to begin with and if it is required the certain fields will be populated with text. My JS skills are basic but was able to put this together using another script I found - it doesn't work but hopefully sheds light on what I'm trying to achieve? var selectedPrint_required = this.getField("Print_required").value;if (selectedPrint_required=="") event.value = "-";else if (selectedPrint_required=="Yes") event.value = "iPrint";The "Print_required" field is a checkbox and when unchecked I'd like the current field to display "-" and when checked I'd like it to display "iPrint". I have 5 other fields that need to replicate this action using the same checkbox as the trigger. I also have a dropdown that I'd like blank when the trigger checkbox is unchecked but with one of the options chosen when checked.  I hope this is possible. Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi, I have a working plugin that adds buttons to a toolbox, the issue I'm having is that when adding the buttons using the trusted functions e.g doc.addField, doc.addToolButton, it works but it keeps throwing exceptions and it looks as if it is affecting the application, the app crashes, the toolbox window is too small and I need to scroll instead of it fitting all the items. the error messages I get back are all from one call. The weird part that I am failing to understand is that these functions will work flawlessly on the second call but not on the first? instead I get the following exceptions being hit:InitializeFormsTrackerJS is not definedInitAnnot is not definedSetRSSMethods is not definedI am using Acrobat X Pro.Thank you.

I have a script which finds all words in a pdf and reports these words back to the console in separate lines for each word.Console report:TRESTLEFOOTINGBUILDINGDETAILSFORPROJECTXThe script needs to be modified to report all words found back to the console in a single line (one sentence) with a space between each word.If anyone can please provide assistance this will be most appreciated, script as follows:var ckWord, numWords;for (var i = 0; i < this.numPages; i++ ){numWords = this.getPageNumWords(i);for (var j = 0; j < numWords; j++){ckWord = this.getPageNthWord(i, j)if ( ckWord != null ){console.println(ckWord);}}}

I am trying to get an error message to pop up if date entered is less than 3 weeks from the current date. Can anyone provide javascript code for this?

Hi,I've searched the forums "date validation" topics but haven't seen this particular issue discussed. Sorry in advance if it's redundant.I have two fields: "Month Ended" and Due_Date." Month Ended is user input with "date validation." Due_Date is calculated based on the user input in Month Ended.The format for Month Ended and Due_Date is set to validate for mm/dd/yyyy. Here are three scenarios and results:1. User enters 9/30/2016. Due Date updates to 10/31/2016.2. User enters 9/30/16. Validation script catches and prompts them to re-enter.3. User enters 9/30. Month Ended "auto-corrects" to 9/30/2016 on the screen. But then Due Date adjusts to 01/00/0000. Scenario 3 is what I need help resolving.Below is the code in each text box.MONTH ENDED DATE VALIDATION BOX (Note: This is also in the Date Validation box for Due_Date)// Validates that the input string is a valid date formatted as "mm/dd/yyyy"function isValidDate(dateString){    //first check for the pattern &nbsp

I am trying to sign a document using an IdenTrust token, which worked with Reader X, but after reader updated itself to DC it does not work. The dialog to select the certificate comes up as it normally would, but after continuing from there it does not ask for the password and simply goes into a Not Responding state. Even after leaving it as not responding for over 5 minutes it does not fix itself.Per another post I tried renaming the Security folder and it did not help. It is also updated to the current version via the Help -> Update option.

I have found another discussion on this topic but haven't yet seen a solution.  All PDF files on the computer prior to the Windows 10 Anniversary Edition update print just fine.  All new PDF files since then print with large black lines replacing most but not all of the print.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi guys, I've been having a problem printing with Adobe Reader DC recently. When I print a document from PDF, all I get are streaks of lines (see attached image).I have done all I can to attempt to find the problem including reinstalling my printer's drivers and reinstalling Adobe Reader but the issue still persists. I have contacted my printer's manufacturer support line and they remotely controlled my computer to attempt to identify the problem and it seems that my printer is in the clear.As such, I could only narrow it down to the PDF document. Can someone advise on what i can do?

I'm trying to print a PDF made from a PowerPoint, probably with MS Office.  (It's from teacher in a course my wife took.)  It makes streaks where the text should be.  I'm using Windows 10, latest update to Acrobat Reader.  I also have a laptop running Linux (Mint) and can use the app Okular to print the PDF.  That works fine.  Thus, there seems to be a bug, either in the HP firmware or with A.R.   I don't really expect help, since I'm going to finish the printing with Linux.  Has anybody else had this problem?  I can sent a scan of the messed-up slides if that will help.

A client had this problem two weeks ago and using the registry fix (the link below) the problem went away, but as of today it has returned.Acrobat Reader DC prints streaks after upgrading to Windows 10 Anniversary updateI can confirm that the registry edit is still there. It was fine on Thursday 27th October 2016 but today, 1st November 2016, it has returned. Today the machine received three updates, two were for Windows 10, one of these was a cumulative update, and one was for Adobe Flash player. I am guessing one of these Microsoft patches has caused Adobe Acrobat Reader DC to stop working correctly again?This is what the invoices are printing out as:
