Acrobat SDK

My code is fairly standard, if people need to see more I can provide but essentially I am just trying to access a field's ButtonLayout property. I know the field I am accessing is a button, b/c I Added it previously in the code and I can review it once the file saves. The last line below is the one that doesn't work. I get the error "Object doesn't support this property or method". I am using MS Access 2016 with the Adobe Acrobat 10.0 Type Library. In contrast I can access the Value, and the BorderStyle properties and set them just fine. The lines in green work, the line in red does not work. Why? I've tried not using capitals and camel case. No difference....Set pdDoc = avDoc.GetPDDoc()Set jso = pdDoc.GetJSObjectjso.getField("buttonImage1")..BorderStyle = "beveled"jso.getField("buttonImage1").buttonImportIcon CStr(photoSet!Photo)jso.getField("caption1").Value = CStr(photoSet!Caption)jso.getField("buttonImage1").ButtonLayout = "1"...

I am new to programming in Acrobat SDK. I am trying to create a tool in .Net in a Windows application. The tool should reduce pdf file size without end users interaction. Is it possible in Acrobat SDK? If yes, any examples will be appreciated.Thanks!

I added a third party plugin button from the Quick Tool and displayed it on the toolbar. However, if you hide the tool panel window, the tool button of the third party plugin will be hidden the next time Acrobat starts.Please let me know if anyone knows how to not hide.

When I get a PDF that needs to be filled out, but has no forum fill areas, I just use the Typewriter function and type on the line I want filles out. Then I ise my computer Pen to sign on the screen. Then I email the form to who needs it. Unfortunately anything i use with the Typewriter functun and I email mail out the PDF there is no typing on the PDF. My signature is there but what ever I did with the Typewriter function is missing. Can someone tell me why?Thanks,Steve

Okay, hopefully the last question of the day...I've simplified my problem down to the following: I have two radio buttons that, when clicked, populate a combobox with a set of options. The first set consists of the numbers 1-5, and the second is simply the string "N/A". Then down below, a numeric Cost field will check to see if the contents of the Quantity field is not "N/A", and if it's not, it will turn the quantity string into an integer and multiply it by 10. Otherwise, if it is "N/A", it will return 0.The problem is that, as soon as you click on either radio button, Acrobat gives the error "The value entered does not match the format of the field [ Cost ]". So it sounds like Cost is expecting an integer and receiving a string, but I'm not sure why it would be getting a string. Other than that, it works as expected.

How can i decline acrobat the use of my device camera?

I have tried to upload Adobe Pro XI 2x now and it keeps setting the language as Danish even though I clicked English (north americcan).  How can I change the language?  I can't read Danish!

In a mouseUp action for a radio button, I want to include some Javascript to disable another form field (a combobox). This is what I've tried, and it isn't working:this.getField("fieldName").disabled=true;

I'm new to Javascript in PDF forms. I'm trying to put a combobox (named "Additional Users") on a PDF form that populates with values from an array. According to this help page, it looks like you can use a 2D array to store the keys and values for the combobox.What I've done will populate the combobox, but once you select an option and click away from it, the value resets to the first option, which in this case is 0. In fact, even the example code from the help page does the same thing when I try it out in my form. What am I doing wrong?     var dropdown = this.getField("Additional Users");     dropdown.setItems([ ["0", 0], ["5", 5], ["10", 10], ["15", 15] ]);

Help! I have used the Basic example in the SDK as a basis to create my plug-in, it works fine on my machine so I built it to put on another machine, and discovered because it was in debug mode, it was using the debug version of the C++ libraries which aren't distributable, however when I change it to a release build then it just doesn't appear as an add-in (It is signed and reader enabled).I don't know what I am missing \ what I should be doing in get this to work, it has been ages since I have done anything in C++ so the many many options in the project properties are lost in time.  I have spent nearly 4 days this and not made any progress.  Can you help? Or at least point me some areas to check? People to ask.Thanks in advance.Danny Banks

I am looking for JavaScript that executes Tools-Pages-Insert from File in Adobe Acrobat.  I have a coversheet.  I would like to add a button to it that allows the user to insert other pages from another PDF.  I have found the JavaScript that adds another PDF as an attachment, but that doesn't accomplish my goal.  I am using Acrobat Pro XI.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

First I am a novice at best...but learningI have a form that has a worksheet the user will complete prior to filling out the form. The worksheet is a series of 71 check boxes that will assign a category value...1, 2, or 3, and populate 1 or more text boxes with different instructions.There are 15 discreet groups of category and text box combinations possible depending on which checkbox is selected.Check boxes are named cbGroup1.1, cbGroup1.2....cbGroup15.1...The function below is called from a mouseup event in the checkbox field.function setText(){if (this.getField('cbGroup1.3').value == 'Yes') {  this.getField('rptCategory').value = 'CATEGORY 1';  this.getField('rptInfo.1').value = 'Instruction one';  this.getField('rptInfo.1').display = display.visible;  this.getField('rptInfo.2').value = 'Instruction two';  this.getField('rptInfo.2').display = display.visible;  this.getField('rptInfo.3').value = 'Instruction three';  this.getField('rptInfo.3').disp

In Acrobat DC 2015.17.20053, I created a PDF from a .PNG (resolution 131.6 dpi). It created a clean-looking .PDF (here it is at 150%):But when I use OCR Text Recognition, it degrades the quality and creates a lot of artifacts:Is there a way to use Text Recognition and maintain decent quality?

I would like to be able to find what version of acrobat is installed when the app is running so I can do different things depending on the version in use.(a) Is this doable?(b) How would I go about it?None of the documentation I have read has given me any clues.TIA

Hi,I am writing a script to spell-check PDF. With reference to the official API document here, the script is copied as a js file to Acrobat javascript folder. I also add a line to insert a menu item to run the script:app.addMenuItem({cName: "&Spell Check All Pages", cParent: "Edit", nPos: 0, cExec: "testck();", cEnable: "event.rc = (event.target != null)"});function testck() {  var ckWord, numWords;  for (var i = 0; i < this.numPages; i++ ) {    numWords = this.getPageNumWords(i);    for (var j = 0; j < numWords; j++) {      ckWord = spell.checkWord(this.getPageNthWord(i, j))      if ( ckWord != null ) {        this.addAnnot({          page: i,          type: "Squiggly",          quads: this.getPageNthWordQuads(i, j),&nb

Adobe Acrobat XI Pro -- Fillable FormHi,I have a successful calculation using the simplified field notation (on the calculation tab) in my field called VacationBalance2.(VacationBalance1 + HoursAccrued2) - HoursTaken2How can I say, if there is no value in HoursTaken2, put nothing in VacationBalance2?  As in, do not show a zero.I have tried semblances of:IF(HoursTaken2 = "","",(VacationBalance1 + HoursAccrued2) - HoursTaken2)I have tried it like this, putting an equal sign in front of the IF, the way I would do it in Excel:=IF(HoursTaken2="","",(VacationBalance1 + HoursAccrued2) - HoursTaken2)I have tried saying:  If(HoursTaken2=0,"", etc.or:  If(HoursTaken2 Is "", "",  etc.In the above case, I have been able to not show the zero, but then I also do not get an answer if HoursTaken2 DOES have a value in it.  See below.Again, my original formula works, but it shows a zero.  How do I make it NOT show a zero, if there is nothing in the "Hours Taken" field?&nbsp

Our firm uses third-party software that is integrated with Adobe Acrobat. Acrobat DC was just pushed out this week and something we've noticed is that if we had any buttons from the third-party software added to the Quick Tools Toolbar, when you first open a document they are not displayed. The quickest workaround we've found to get them to display is to click on "Tools" and then "Document" again, and the buttons will then display in the Quick Tools Toolbar.I googled a bit and saw other people were experiencing the same issue:PDFlyer tools disappear from Quick Tools toolbar Plugin tools disappear from Quick Tools Bar after restart I contacted the maker of the software and they said they have no control over how buttons are displayed in the Toolbar, and that is something that Adobe would need to fix.I submitted a bug report to Adobe but I have a feeling this is something that wouldn't be high on their priority list. That being said, is there a quick javascript that would select "Tools"

I'm trying to find a solution for writing and reading PDF files.  Specifically I would like to have:1.  An SDK (e.g. assemblies or native DLL's) to write PDF files that does not require Adobe Products to be installed2.  An SDK (e.g. assemblies or native DLL's) that can read/write PDF's (e.g. write text, write shapes, write tables, meta-data)3.  An  SDK (e.g. assemblies or native DLL's) that can be distributed with my application4.  An SDK supported for the Microsoft .net framework.I figured I'd ask the question and someone would probably know.From what I gather, the free SDK would allow us to interact with Adobe products via IPC.  So I dont know if that allows for requirement 1.  If there is a version of an SDK that would allow 1 and 3, I'd love to know about it.  My guess is that what I need would cost money?  If so does anyone know how much or where I can find more information.Thanks!

I'm not sure if this is a question or an idea. Either way, it's 70% question so here I am. Is there a method for creating a direct link "mapping a network drive" in Windows explorer to my adobe cloud repository? If so, is there any documentation to help? If not, had Adobe ever considered this idea? As technology moves forward towards more integrated SaaS capability is this something Adobe DC could benefit from?.Thanks in advance for any assistancemeenakshin83966505​Message was edited by: John Miles add mention

I am trying to send a document to a SaaS.  The documentation for the Net.Http.request function indicates that you can just call it like a normal function so after reading documentation and trying to build a proof of concept based on it, I got the following error: "NotAllowedError: Security settings prevent access to this property or method."What are the specific set of steps involved in order to allow a javascript call to the Net.Http.request method?
