downloaded find_highlight_and_extract.sequ from https://acrobatusers.com/actions-exchange but when I double click then I get a pop up saying that the file format is not correct or it has not been properlydecoded during download. 

I am using teh STAMPR sample to create a custom annotation type. It works as far as displaying it goes, but the first time it displays a True Type character, i get the pop up that says the font has a bad /BBox. I have tried diffrent fonts and they all getit. i use the font elsewhere in a textrun and it doesn't get the error.I modified the Cos generation in teh sample as shown below the commented out parts were where I tried a couple of things - one that I found suggested as it culd force a defaut and the other just being a large BBox that no character should ever exceed. Currently not adding the entry at all as the doc say it will be  determined by using information in the font.After I get the message box once, it doesn't show again until I close and reopen the file.And finally, there is one symptom that concerns me the most and makes me wonder if it might be a problem with Acrobat. If I use two different fonts, it will only complain about teh first charcter of the first font. It

Hi,is it possible to create an if statement where fieldA is populated with a number if fieldB is filled in with a specific number, but if fieldB is filled in with that specific number and fieldC is filled in with a specific word the result in fieldA changes? 

Hi guys,I am struggling with dropdowns. When I expand them, they only show 4 items and also they're not scrollable, which is extremely annoying and not user-friendly. Is there a way to fix that?

How do I add a font to Acrobat so I can edit while keeping the integrity of my original document? 

Hello,At the risk of repeating a lot of people, I'm new to using Javascript and I'm hitting a wall. I have a 4 page document, and page one has a drop down with multiple options. If options 2, 4, 6 or 8 are selected, I want page 2 to be visible, but pages 3 and 4 to remain hidden. If options 1, 3, 5, 7 are selected then I'd like pages 2 and 4 to be hidden and page 3 visible. Lastly, if options a, b, or c are selected, pages 2 and 3 should be hidden and page 4 visible. I've created templates and named them Page2, Page3, and Page4. Unfortunately nothing I've found on google has been helpful, because I'm not using a checkbox nor using Live Cycle. I'm hoping for a javascript solution. I tried doing a JS action on both Mouse Up and Mouse Exit with just a simple show/hide action for page 2, but the below formula didn't work. Thank you in advance to anyone who can help! If it helps, my main page was imported from an excel file, and the 3 templates were imported from PDF files. if (this.rawValu

Hello,I am new to JS. I am trying to conditionally format two fields. Field one is a dropdown menu called "niche size" with three options: Small, Medium, and Large. Field two is called "Number of Persons." I am trying to code so that:If Small is selected, Number of Persons = 2If Medium is selected, Number of Persons = 3If Large is selected, Number of Persons = 4  I keep getting the error: SyntaxError: missing ; before statement 1: at line 2 even though there is a semicolon after at the end of line 1. I am totally new at this and am probably missing something easy or am doing something glaringly wrong. Help is greatly appreciated. Code below: var Niche Size = this.getField("Number of Persons").valueAsString;if (Niche Size =="Small") event.value = 2;else if (Niche Size =="Medium") event.value = 3;else if (Niche Size =="Large") event.value = 4;else event.value = "";

Hi there The setup: in a PDF I have a bunch of dropdown lists with a huge amount of entries each. The selected items (input) of all boxes populates into one text field (output). What I'm trying to achieve: I need the output to be automatically separated by ", " (comma/space)so it will look like this (box selection 1, box selection 2, ...). Since there's a lot of entries, I can't do that manually. I think ther's a simple Javascript solution to add to the dropdowns or the text field, but I have no clue.Can someone help please? Thanks in advance!

I am trying to print color a document with black in it. The black keeps coming out as a faded grayish black. It is not true black. I have printed real black before on this printer from this computer so I know it is possible, but for some reason it keeps coming out like this. Any ideas?

Simple question - How can the margins be set inside text form fields? (a JavaScript option is fine)   In a multi-line text field, the top margin (padding) seem excessive and does not match the margin seen in single line fields.  The following graphics illustrates this issue:   All lines displayed in the multi-line field, notice the extra margin/padding at the top of the field. The font used does not seem to matter.  This example uses Consolas (a fixed size font - like Courier)Moving up the bottom of the field does not change the top margin. Calibri displays the same issue (commonly used in Microsoft products) After much searching there seemed to be at one time a 'Paragaph' tab in the form field properties dialog.  No more. Any JavaScript solutions? Thank you for your time.Alex Lindberg

I have a valid Adobe subscription which provides Acrobat DC Standard as part of it, but I cannot download acrobat DC.  Instead I am directed to Adobe Reader, which does not allow me to edit or combine files. I recently changed to a new computer after the old one failed.

A client of mine who is using Acrobat DC in a Citrix virtual environment reported that my plugin is not showing up in the menu.After investigating the operating environment, I found that he had customized Acrobat so that he could use it without signing in with his Adobe ID.I created an installer with "Suppress sign-in in Acrobat" enabled in the Acrobat Customization Wizard and confirmed that the plug-ins menu does not appear without sign-in.Is the only way to make my plug-ins available to all users by having them sign in with their Adobe ID?

When we replaced Acrobat for development with the latest DC, our own plug-ins, which had been working properly, would not load and the "Plug-ins" menu would not appear.It does not always fail to load, but seems to be more likely to occur at first startup; it will load correctly after restarting Acrobat.At first I thought it was only happening on x64, but it seems to happen on 32-bit as well if you have a subscription version of DC.Is anyone else having a similar problem?My version is 2022.001.20117/Continuous Release/x64 and x86/Windows.

Once a checkbox have been checked, an alert message will appear if the age field is empty. Click "OK", then setFocus on age field.After I enter the age and click out of the age box, the message still appears another time, as if the value hasn't been committed yet.How do I show the message only once? if (getField("Run").value == "1"){if (this.getField("MaxHR").value == "")app.alert("Please enter patient's age or Date of Birth!",3);getField("age").setFocus();}}

Do you use proofreaders marks on an Abobe Acrobat document?  If you do are there any templates or add-on that can be installed?  Why not just use comments? 

Hi, I have been searching for an answer for this but it just doesn't exist on the internet.I want to add 2 signature fields at the end of a report template, for a company representative and also for a customer to sign. I don't want the "Fill and sign" or "Digital signature" option, but an option that is gonna make it possible to click on the field and then open a window where I can sign it with either a stylus or a finger. Unfortunately, I have been searching for a while but whatever I google, it just gives me the "how to add your own signature to the PDF", which explains how to scan a signature and the paste it wherever on the document.
