Acrobat SDK

I've created a PDF form in Adobe Acrobat X Pro and am sending it out for large numbers of customers to fill in. We ask them to use Adobe Reader to complete it, but they don't always. Sometimes, when the customer completes the form with different software (all the examples I've checked have been itext-paulo-155) the information is visible but doesn't export, either to csv, fdf, or using the getfield().value in VBA on a JS object.From looking around the web, it seems that the issue is the separate setting (or not) of the field values and appearances. The checkbox appears checked, but exports as Off, and if you click on it once it becomes checked (apparently indicating that it was not already checked). I've tried updating the field properties to force the field to update its appearance, but this just causes it to appear Off. Similarly, exporting the form data to FDF then reimporting it into an uncorrupted version of the form just ends up with the field appearing blank. The text box fields

How do I create a PopUp Window or Menu Item that has Visual Elements that can be dragged out of the PopUp or Menu and dropped onto the page. I need the visual element object to remain static in the PopUp Window, so that it may be selected and used multiple times (so it will not be removed from the window after first use). I have created Buttons at the top of the page, and I would like to create an action for each button that opens a Window that has the different visual elements or objects for each different type of system used to create a simple diagram. I would like to close the PopUp by pushing the button a second time. The visual elements objects are .jpeg images.

Using Acrobat DC on Windows 10. Super Ultra Novice here. Not sure if layers is the right term, but I want to create a drop down with 20 options, each option, if selected should lead to a new option, and then another. In most cases it should be 5 layers deep. IS this possible without using outside tools? I know nothing of Javascript and have been watching tutorials all day trying to figure this out. Is there a Javascript pre made template out there somewhere that I could use as a starting point?

Hi everyone,just encountered a strange bug with some PDF files I made.I created a file in Indesign where some type is scaled horizontally (sometimes less than 100%, sometimes more). These Indesign files are then exported as PDF using the preset "High Quality Print".Printing these PDF files from my Mac to our Canon c5255i (with PS driver) works fine, but when my collegues print the same file using Acrobat Reader on Windows all scaled fonts (that is: all non 100% horizontally scaled fonts) are replaced with black bars.When I put the fonts back at 100% horizontal scale, export a new PDF then everything works fine.I've been using the same Indesign file for some time now, never had any issues.Starting this week we noticed that strange bug in the PDF files. Acrobat Reader on Windows is still the same since before - I always upgrade to the latest available version of Adobe CC.Anyone else having the same issue ? Is it related to the latest CC update maybe ?Thanks for your comments Tom

I am having trouble with downloading Adobe off the internet because it keeps asking for a user name and password and nothing I enter works.  What is the user name and password needed to download on a Mac computer?

@10670800 me he suscrito 3 veces a PDF pack y sólo la primera vez funcionó

Never had problem until yesterday. Now when creating pdf's from some word documents, my comes out with gibberish as follows: &%$#~ etc.                      

Mac OSX 10.11.6/Acrobat 10.1.1. Suddenly pdf files won't open with a double click, I now have to open Acrobat and file>open.Also, once they're open, they won't close by clicking the red close dot, I now have to go to file>close.Please do not suggest changing the Open With default in the file info - they are all already set to default to Acrobat. So frustrating!

For the $12.99/month option, how many stations can this be used on?Thanks in advance!

I have the disks for acrobat std. v9 can i buy another license to use this one on another computer ?

I've created a PDF on a mac with links that navigate forward and back through the document pages. It works on all Mac devices but not on a tablet. Any suggestions???

The "Select Fields for Calculation" function does not work.  Anyone have the same problem?

We are trying to sign and certify documents but we have to have the ability to print the valid/invalid signature notation as seen in the image below if the document has been altered in any way.  We can't make our documents show the valid/invalid signature like the image when printing.  We are able to invalidate the signature but it only shows in the signature panel.  Is this a script that we need to put into Acrobat to make it do this if the document is altered or should Acrobat be doing it on it's own?  Please help!

This is supposed to be the "default" setting, but it is not even an "available" setting. If I go to Edit > Preferences > General > there is no box to check to turn this on and off. So, the option is not even available.

I have a master copy of a form my clients are to fill out and then sign, but when it is signed the form is saved over and then I have no master file. If I make it read only it fails to save, I have tried to give it a path to save as so it wont write over my master file but the best outcome is if the master file is not read only and upon signing it will save over the master AND make a save file where I want it to. I have a signature pad and I used the following java script when the form is signed:lcbSaveAs(this, "/X/000 - Onboarding/" + this.getField("FirstName").valueAsString + " " +this.getField("LastName").valueAsString + " Application.pdf");I also have the trusted function in the folder level javascript:var lcbSaveAs = app.trustedFunction( function (vDoc, vPath) {  app.beginPriv();  vDoc.saveAs({cPath: vPath});  app.endPriv();});

I have a formatted word document which consists of both LTR (English) and RTL (Arabic) languages in one line or paragraph. The Arabic font used is either "Courier New" or "Times New Roman" both of which are Unicode fonts. The created PDF looks fine, the exact replica of the word document. However, the problem is when you search for a Arabic word showing present in the PDF. The search may come up with the message "No matches were found". But when you highlight, copy and paste the same word from the PDF, it exist as a disjointed/split/broken form, I guess in the search map and only way to find the word is by using the same disjointed form. I may say its random though it appears to be consistent sometimes. Both Acrobat 9 and 11 standard showing the same results. Is there a way to fix this problem?For example كِتَابًا may exist as كِ تَابًا in search map.Thankfully appreciatedAsim

This has not been a problem before. Suddenly, I am unable to print Microsoft Office 365 documents. I have a PC running Windows 10. My Adobe DC and MS Office 365 accounts are up to date.

But on two machines with El Capitan one of my plugin crashes when you click an icon in list of tools.As I see in dump crash apeears not in my plugin's function:```Thread 0 Crashed:: Dispatch queue: com.apple.main-thread0   com.adobe.Acrobat.framework       0x00000001080cf993 0x105fe3000 + 345235391 com.adobe.Acrobat.framework       0x0000000106d889f6 0x105fe3000 + 143098782 com.adobe.Acrobat.framework       0x00000001060fb7e7 0x105fe3000 + 11489033 com.adobe.Acrobat.framework       0x00000001060fafc8 0x105fe3000 + 11468244 com.adobe.Acrobat.framework       0x0000000106046d4c 0x105fe3000 + 4089085   com.adobe.Acrobat.framework       0x00000001060468ea 0x105fe3000 + 4077866 com.ado

I have a large form that has many different drop downs.  The drop downs are scattered throughout the form on many different pages.  They all contain the same lists.  They are simply a personnel roster that the user can use to select a team member from.  The roster changes quite frequently.  I am wondering if there is a way to create a master list that all of these common drop downs use rather than having to update each field within the form anytime the roster changes.

I'm trying to set up a topaz T-S460-HSB-R electronic signature pad. I successfully installed and signed documents on one computer I clicked the sign field and a signature field came up you sign and boom your done. But upon trying the same process with the same document on another computer I get this:First, I don't even have any type of password although acrobat begs to differ, second I'm trying to set up this computer so that people who come in can sign the documents they fill out so it will be signed by many people and I cant have this popping up every time. I know it has something to do with the Digital ID but Im not sure how to remove it or set up a public version. Any help would be appreciated.

Need to make a form that has fields within a paragraph. I know how to adjust the field to fit the answer, however I do not know how to adjust the rest of the text in the paragraph. I will mention that this is a document that was made into a pdf from Word. Here is an example:Obviously, that field size is going to change based on the answer, but I cannot have a huge blank space between the answer and "that require added attention...".Is this possible? How is it possible?TIA,Kelly

My MacBook Pro's hard drive failed & after getting a new hard drive I downloaded & tried to reinstall Adobe Acrobat XI Pro full version that I purchased in 2014 but it gives me a window titled Serial Number Upgrade & states that my serial number is valid & asks me to select a product from a drop down box. The only problem is that Adobe Acrobat XI Pro is not listed in the drop down box. Please, help. Thank you.

I just noticed this morning that I can no longer save PDFs from Acrobat DC. Period. When I try, I get a popup box with the little square "loading" icon and it flashes like crazy. Then the CPU fan kicks in. It never actually lets me save it. Red alert!

I am on Windows 10. I recently updated my build version. Perhaps that is the cause of this problem.When I got Reader DC, it worked fine. But I have not needed it for over a month. Today when I did use it, any attempt to save a document resulted in a window popping up but remaining blank and never going away. Print still works. Not sure what the next move is or should be. Let me know. Thanks.

Hi,Acrobat opens pdf files with titel name (if there is one) instead of document names.I know, I can change that one in document prefs, but have to re-pdf (print to pdf again) loads of files.I searched the prefs... didn't find an answer.For example Doc names are 1. First chapter.pdf (titel is document01)2. Second chapter.pdf (titel is also document01)It does not print the documentnames but prints the document titles... So all files now called document01.pdf!Does anyone know how to set document names as standard?Thanks,Ruud.
