Acrobat SDK

I want to integrate a youtube video into a PDF. How do I first find out what format the video is in? Then I did tests and simply appended the ending .mp4 to the URL. The window then got an arrow and when I clicked on it, the film didn't appear, but the window turned gray. A pop-up window opened with the message "controls no". So what do I have to do to embed the video and be able to view it?

I am very new to javascript in pdf files. I have a pdf file with a button and I would like to have it clicked automatically or when the page with it is loaded or after a certain delay.I know these procedures exist in Javascript, but I did not find them in Acro-js. I cannot use methods other than Javascript. How can I do it?

I am having troubles with setting the reference to Adobe Acrobat from Excel VBA which is running on a Mac.  Let me provide a bit of background:I have been programming VBA within Windows in Visual Studio, Access and Excel for a couple of decades.  So I am very comfortable with both Windows and VBA.  Recently, thanks to some assistance from one of the forum questions I posted, I was able to beginning writing an Excel program which interacted with the various forms I created with Adobe Acrobat Pro DC for my windows laptop to retrieve information from the form to various tabs within the Excel workbook, my first venture with Excel/Adobe interaction. I was doing all of this for a friend.  Unfortunately, my friend has a Mac.  So now I am trying to get this Excel workbook to work on his Mac with the loaded Office.  However, I have run into a big problem with regards to the reference to Adobe Acrobat. He also has installed Adobe Acrobat Pro DC on his Mac (he has e

I have two text fields Yes(Text1) and No(Text2). , two radio buttons YES and No. With a "Pass Button". So when I click on Pass the value from the "Text1" field should directly show in another text field named "Text4" and even when I change the value in "Text1" and "Text2" but do not click on "Pass" button I should get the previously entered value. I've attached the form.

I am unable find a method or API in SDK to input data into a XFA file created using Adobe Livecycle. Is there any way we can achieve this? 

Hello,I have a checking in form that when submitted (depending of dropdown selections) auto fills an email with part descriptions and part numbers, this is working fine. I am updating it for other reasons but I was wondering if it is possible to have the email auto populate with different part numbers depending on the selection of part made in a dropdown? So if part 1 is selected (screen) then part number for selection 2 (harness) changes? On top of this is it possible that if the screen and harness are missing from the machine can Adobe search part of the serial number of the machine to identify which screen and harness it should have? Hopefully that makes sense! Thanks

Hi Guys, just do a post to see if anyone can help me with non-programmer. I am creating an interactive pdf form and I used page 7 (11 pages in total) as a template for spawning extra"Task Card" for engineering purposes. I created a button for page generating on the Template page, and I also created a text field on the template page that can populate the sequential numbers for each new Task Card created (the Template page text field will have the total number of cards generated +1), which means the text field on the template page will have the number 7 if I generate the Task Card six times.Here is the barrier I am facing, on the second page of this PDF, I have an index table with a column named Task Card No., so how am I able to let the Task Card number (not the sum total number) pop into each cell every time I generate a card, which is basically a sequential number 1, 2, 3, etc...Another barrier is on the Template page, there is another text field with some brief description of a

Hi I prepared a document with a form text field. The custom validation script for each field is as follows: if (event.value=="No Stock")event.target.fillColor = color.red;else if (event.value=="Medium")event.target.fillColor = color.yellow;else if (event.value=="High")event.target.fillColor = color.green;else if (event.value=="")event.target.fillColor = color.transparent; Basically, it is working fine in Adobe Reader  DC Pro for me and my colleguesBut in all other Adobe Reader versions (e.g. Adobe Reader DC), the coloring is not permanent only when you hover over the field and click on it you can see it.  And I don't understand what I am doing wrong! Thanks already for the help and suggestions

Hi! Not quite sure if this questions belongs to this forum or the Indesign one, but since I guess I might have to use Javascript (hopefully not, because I don't know it) I'll post here to start. I would like to create a multipage PDF, where every page (except for a content page) contains an intruction for a different tool. On the content page, I would like to click and select (with checkboxes or something similar) which pages to print, and then click another interactive button to print these selected pages.Is this possible? Of course I could just let the user manually type in which pages to print in the print settings, but that's not as elegant. Thank you!

I am using Acrobat 11.  I printed a pdf document from the dialogue box and selected multiple pages per sheet.  I now want to reset it to one page per sheet.  When I select the dialogue box, it only offers 2,4,6,9,16 or custom.  How can I resent to one per page?  I have tried returning to default on the Properties and Advanced tabs and this does not work.  Thanks in advance for help.  JB  

Hello, I have pdf created in indesign with interactive textfields and checkboxes. In adobe pro I defined default values for that text fields. Also I defined "Will print" script, so defaul values are not printable, if someone not filled up interactive textfields and leave form with default values. Form works perfect on PC, but doest work on smartphone (iOS), so form can not be printed with blank interactive text fields. It cause that it can not be filled with pen after print. Is it be possible to define default values to be visible only on compatible pdf browsers? Or someone have any other solution for my problem? Script for "will print" for(var i=0;i<this.numFields;i++) { var oFld = this.getField(this.getNthFieldName(i)); if(oFld.type == "text") oFld.display = (oFld.value == oFld.defaultValue)?display.noPrint:display.visible; }
