Acrobat SDK

The Adobe Acrobat XI print to PDF doesn't print in the selected directory with the entered file name, instead it overwrites a PDF file previously printed months ago.  I've tested this, and it has overwritten network shares and local drives.  The overwritten files have not been used for sometime and didn't appear in lists of recently used files.  I can see no pattern behind the file Adobe print to PDF overwrites.  The system worked stably in August 2016 with no problems.I've recovered the overwritten files from backup and removed the Adobe Print to PDF printer driver.   Due to the destructive nature of the issue I thought I'd ask if anyone has experienced anything like this before and can suggest a solution before attempting troubleshooting.  Anyone?Conditions:  Windows 10 on desktop with Acrobat XI Pro, printing from Microsoft EDGE.  Printer setup-up to prompt for file name and prompt before overwriting.  The network shares held Windows

My Acrobat Pro XI automatically converted to Pro DC, possibly through a company update.    The tool items are now very large.   I was able to reduce the size in Pro XI under "Edit - Preferences -  Scale for screen resolution" , by setting to 100%.   This is not longer available in the Pro DC and can only set to "Auto Detect".   Is there any other way to change this scale in Pro DC?    I find the larger size a waste of space and distracting.   Any help would be greatly appreciated.   Thanks!

The goal is not to create a long document and have the user be able to press a "+" button and add another set of fields. So instead of having a document with two pages of the same fields they would be able to add them as needed. Thank you!Kris

This is a problem as we are working with a 4600 page pdf and need to export comments periodically, and tagging is a long process to run..When the pdf is saved/closed/reopened normally, it is no longer tagged.

Basically I have 10 inspection sheets at work we call "take-off's". Each take-off is specific to a type of inspection.Instead of making 10 fillable PDF forms of each take-off, I wonder if I can have a "Master Take-off" PDF. Within the document there will a drop down menu with options to select such as:Man Door take-offDock Seals & shelters take-offOverhead door take-offand so on....Upon selecting one of these in the drop down, in the same PDF form, it will only load/display the fields applicable to that selection.I think this is possible, but am having a hard time for whatever reason researching this topic and finding the solution.Can anyone help provide a tutorial or even a template I can work off of?

I have little experience writing java script, but I am pretty sure I need to use java script to disable an add page button after it has been clicked and spawned it's assigned template. The java script I am using to spawn the template is as follows.var expTplt = getTemplate("tpltReport"); expTplt.spawn(2,true,false);This script works fine, and I have created several identical templates with different names so that a specific template is launched when the add page button is clicked on specific page of the pdf. This is to prevent the information that is entered on one page from being repeated on all the subsequent pages that are added to the pdf. I rename the effected fields on each template to accomplish this.Since each template has its own add page button, with the exception of the final template, if one is clicked multiple times from the same page it will spawn multiple identical pages and the repeating information error will occur.Any simple solutions?

I've been trying a JavaScript that computes the remaining balance.  The customer picks a package which assigns a price to the subtotal and when the customers enter a deposit it should generate the remaining balance.  I've tried this javascript var t = getField(“Price”).value;var d = getField(“Deposit”).value;event.value = t - d;but it is not working.Is there anything wrong with the JavaScript?  Please help!!

I just got a new laptop with WIndows 10 and subscribed to Adobe Acrobat.  I created a Word doc and wanted to convert to a pdf.When I use the Acrobat tab on Word and convert the document, the pdf is about 90 percent reduced in size and it unreadable.I did a lot of pdf conversions with my old Windows 7 laptop and had no issues.  Anyone have any answers?  They would be much appreciated.Thank you.

The response from Adobe help is "This just won't work."  My system is several years old & I'm not interested in updating to newer software.

How do I get adobe pro XI to insert a date in a field once a checkbox is checked?

Hello all,Please could you help? I have been trying to resolve my issues with 3 different Adobe support personel  - without sucess and long time wasting - through support chat - I did not understand what one wanted me to do as, sorry, but he explained really badly, the other one disconnected just like that and another one could not sort it out..Anyway, last week, my PC had Windows 10 updates and since then, I have been having issues: I cannot go to my desktop storage, I cannot save nor save as my document (already in PDfs)...I really need this as I work with DC everyday (I work for myself and I am the only one employee) and I have not been able to do anything for 3 full days.Help please!Thanks all.

A colleague has lost a few PDFs they’re working on. While using the comments tool on both occasions she pressed Ctrl + S (on a PC) to save the file & a message appeared saying it wasn’t possible to save the file. When she checked the folder, it just showed two .tmp files, which couldn’t be opened – the original PDF had disappeared. The temp files have new names which look like a bunch of numbers and letters, not meaning anything to us. Any idea why that would have happened?

I have a time sheet form that I've copied 20 times. Only one field in the forms is different - the Name. Each name's form field is labeled "Name1", "Name2" etc. I had to create extra pages so that whoever is creating these sheets in the future will be able to add names when necessary, but these fields are blank for now. I don't want these extra pages to print and I'd rather not force the person printing the time sheets to have to check how many to print every time. Is there a way to check if a 'numbered set' of form fields is blank and set them to not print? This form field also happens to be the first field on each page if that helps. I have included an image of the sheet below. Thanks!

Reinstalled my older, but still good, version 6.0 of Acrobat after reformatting computer.But, now the PDF is not a print option in my other software applications.From what I read online, due to compatibility issues with Windows7, but this worked for 4 years prior to reinstalling, so must be a fix.

Is there any way to convert a text field to a checkbox? Trying to convert a paper-based document (which is a PDF) to a fillable form, and it's imported most of the fields fine, but a bunch of them are text fields and I need checkboxes.I am being lazy... could just delete and redo...M

How to split a PDF page into two from middlle programatically using Acrobat SDK in .Net

I purchased this software last night and followed the steps when installing.  During the installation, the serial number worked fine. When I tried running the software for the first time, and after logging in with my Adobe ID, I was prompted to enter my serial number again. This time, it was rejected ("We are unable to validate this serial number...").  Can someone please contact me immediately?  I looked through the threads and noticed that others have encountered this issue, but I did not see any helpful solutions. 

I have Acrobat XI Pro, how can I update to the latest version (DC ?!), desktop version?Don't want subscription version! And what is the price for the update?Can't find any way to buy desktop versions of anything! (i am also interested in Lightroom)Thank you.

Hello,Hoping someone can help me.  In the past week when i'm trying to use the "Add or Edit Fields" i select that i want to add a text box and/or a signature box and the box populates but i can't move it like i use to.  It will only allow me to put it in certain areas but not where i want to fill out that information.  And i also can't resize it either.  I feel like it's lagging around but it's hard to really explain.  I've never had this problem until just recently.  Before i could make the box put it directly where i need it, resize it and move on but i can't seem to do that anymore.  I have already "repaired adobe installation"  but that didn't seem to work.
