Hi All  (new to this forum and to javascript).I have created a form with 3 signature fields plus an email button.I am able to "populate" my email with proper info, etc.I have figured out the use of unicode to enter line breaks since with my acrobat 9 the outlook email message is by default plain text.(i don't know how to make it "open" with a new message in HTML format)Form is basically filled out and approved by one person then emailed upwards for 2nd approval thenupwards again for a 3rd approval. Each email to the next "approver" is on a seperate button.(ie:  To BOB, To BILL, once all 3 signatures are in - To DISTRIBUTE)What I would like to do is add the name of the sender to my email message.I am thinking that the best way, is to get the name of the last person to sign the PDF.Assuming the last person to sign would have also hit the email button.I need some help in my triggers and coding to find out which of the 3 signature fields was last entered.I was thinking of using t

i have the adobe acrobat 9 Pro Extended. I am stuck into the actual signatures that I had created. I need to delete some of them and create new, but I dont remember how to do it ?

I need to generate a report to extract information from multiple pdf files.To get a report from a single pdf this script works fine tested from the console:var docfile = this.documentFileName;var rep = new Report();rep.size = 1.2;rep.color = color.blue;rep.writeText (docfile + "\r\n");rep.open("My Report")Not sure how to generate a single report listing document file names from multiple pdf files?Any assistance in help creating this report will be most appreciated - thank you.Update:I have modified the script to be an action script - there are separate reports generated for each document file name instead of a single report with multiple document file names listed in the one report. If any one can help that would be great.var docfile = event.target.documentFileName;var rep = new Report();rep.size = 1.2;rep.color = color.blue;rep.writeText (docfile + "\r\n");rep.open("My Report");console.println(docfile);

Hi all,I need to extract signatures information from PDF files in VBA (Mainly the signatory name and the signature date. The PDF files have several signatures inside them).So I have got some questions :- Is there a example somewhere to do such a thing?- Will I need Acrobat Pro for that purpose? This is an important point as the code is supposed to be ran on machines where ONLY Acrobat Reader is installed.- If the above is impossible, do you know about a command line utility that would do the thing (and that I could run from my VB code)Thank you for your helpEmphyrio

How to record the selection from a dropdown for up to 10 selections

I need to tell the users where to put a folder level JavaScript file. For Windows I know the answer. I am working on a Windows 10 x64 PC and found the location of my Adobe Acrobat "Javascripts" folder to be C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat Reader DC\Reader\Javascripts\However, I would like to know where this folder is located on Mac OS (for Adobe Acrobat Reader DC).Is there somebody running Acrobat Pro DC and/or Acrobat Reader DC who can tell me the returned path of this JavaScript :app.getPath("app", "javascript");Thank you!

Hi there! My question to you is how can I calculate the sum of certain filled fields?For example in a PDF document I have some fields that need to be filled with name and surname and at the end of the document another field that represents the total of the "Name and surname" fields which shows how many persons are in this document. The operation shouldn't take in account blank/unfilled fields.Now I know I could do this with the simple "sum(+)" calculation but I'd have to enter a "1" for each of this field and I'd like to avoid that.

I installed Acrobate XI pro and distiller XI and FormsCentral simultaneously, but only FormsCentral could work properly. And Acrobate XI pro could only open PDF file which was inserted into word document. If open a PDF file, or just click on Acrobate XI pro and distiller XI icons, they would not open and all open windows began to flash. I tried reinstall, but it doesn't help.

I am having an issue with how to minify javascript at my webpage since this is one way of increasing speed and ranking. How can I do it?

Due to regulatory issues, we want our sales force to use specific flyers where they can alter only certain areas.  We've set up PDF forms for them to use (to add their local contact info, etc.).  They will fill this out in Reader, then save and send on as an email attachment to their customers.  If the customer is viewing this PDF on an iOS device, they won't see any of the form field info.  I've seen lots of work-arounds for this from the user end, but we cannot expect our customers to open up the PDF in a certain way or run javascripts on them so the form fields appear.  My question is:  Is there anything I can do to the form as I build it in Acrobat that will allow the sales rep to fill out the form in Reader, then execute an action...hit a button? export? what? To flatten the form fields so they will be visible to the customers who use iOS devices.  Once the form is filled out by the sales rep, it no longer needs to be editable, so flattening (or

I'm using Acrobat X on a Mac. I have this bit of javascript (see below). It does just the opposite of what I'm trying to do. I want to flatten the Stamps, Lines, Call-Out text boxes and any other type of annotation and not effect the buttons and input fields (or any other fields in the doc). Just flatten the annotations. Can someone help me out? Here's the script and a thank you.Script:this.syncAnnotScan();var annots = this.getAnnots();for (var i = 0; i < annots.length; i++) {annots.print = (annots.type!="Stamp");}flattenPages(0,numPages-1,1);this.syncAnnotScan();annots = this.getAnnots();for (var i = 0; i < annots.length; i++) {annots.print = true;}

When calling acrobat from the Excel VBA macro, does the error be displayed only with acrobat Reader?Is it necessary to install the product version of Acrobat?

Is there a way that I can create records of a form saving as same name like in Omni Pro Filler. Our company has went away from Omni Form, but the creation of forms with records is much needed. Some of the forms are single pages and some contain up to 20 pages. When doing EPA's it would be much simpler to open a single file for that employee that has all the past EPA's stored as records versus generating a new file each time need.Thank in Advanced.

Hello My company is delivering training and as part of our Go Green initiative we stopped printing manuals. All course material is now online only which means during the course the Attendee has to use Acrobat or some other PDF tool to digitally annotate the course notes. My issue is that Acrobat has a lot of capabilities and features and settings. I would like to be able to do the following: - create a version of Acrobat that has our company logo and brand colours on it- reduce the number of digital annotation markup features down to maybe five or six - preset the digital annotation markup feature settings to an ideal level- be able to redistribute this version to my AttendeesIs the above possible with Adobe Acrobat SDK?Arnold Villeneuve  

In my form I'd like to be able to make the annotations and mark ups Read Only after I set them on the page. I don't want the user to be able to select the, let's say, the Stamp I set on the page or any other annotations or mark ups I place on the page. I don't mean turning off the annotations tab section. Can someone please help me out? I've searched quite a bit and cannot find anything that would help. Is there a javascript that would do what I want? Can someone let me know? Thanks guys.
