Acrobat SDK

I know this has been asked several times, but I was still unable to find a solution to my problem when trying to use the PDF Embed API. I generated the code using the Adobe demo, and replaced all relevant info and file location (yes, I removed the <> carrots). I'm attaching the code and info below. Thank you to anyone that can help with this. <div id="adobe-dc-view"></div><script src="https://documentcloud.adobe.com/view-sdk/main.js"></script><script type="text/javascript">document.addEventListener("adobe_dc_view_sdk.ready", function(){var adobeDCView = new AdobeDC.View({clientId: "fbb5f2505a7b4d2bafc5906ba90f05a2", divId: "adobe-dc-view"});adobeDCView.previewFile({content:{location: {url: "https://joshuatawney.com/TAWNEY_SELECTED_WORKS.pdf"}},metaData:{fileName: "TAWNEY_SELECTED_WORKS.pdf"}}, {embedMode: "LIGHT_BOX"});});</script>

I need import FDF data into PDF for several hundred files. try67​’s simple script for export FDF (from post Batch Exporting FDF Files) was great for me, could anybody help me and create similar one for import? The PDF and FDF file names are always the same (ex. 123.pdf, 123.fdf; abcd.pdf, abcd.fdf...).I note I am not programmer. Thanks.

Hi Everyone. I am trying to extract data from a pdf file that has cascading dropdowns. I am trying to recreate the document with all the data that is hidden from the dropdowns.

Hello! I work for a tool and die shop. We use Acrobat XI Standard to master part prints for each job. Each print has a job number, revision level, and short list of quality information that we have a dynamic stamp for. Occasionally, the information is the same for more than one job; however, I can't always copy and paste because when I do the stamp turns automatically 90 degrees. Is there any way to rotate the stamp without having to start over again? I've been searching forums and help sites for weeks and have found some solutions but they don't seem to work for me. Thank you in advance for any help!Paige

I set up a document for digital signatures, there are usually 2 signatures within my organisation and then 2 signatures required externally as well. No matter what I do as soon as the document leaves our organisation it is 'locked' for signature by the external company.  I have set up the emails so that if a different person is to sign it can be delegated to them. The lock option is not ticked prior to sending externally. Hoping someone can help?ThanksPhoebe

Is there a way to allow a specific amout of prints for a pdf? I read the same question in a 2016 discussion and the reply was "no". I hope the the in 6 year time something has changed

I want to delete all the items in the pdf file at once. I do it manually and it's tiring

Hi, all,   I'm wondering if it is possible, within the javaScript of a dynamic stamp, to get the page number of that particular stamp within the Dynamic stamp file.   event.source appears to only have 3 properties (forReal, stampName, and source), based on the output of Object.getOwnPropertyNames.   What I'm trying to accomplish: I have a dynamic stamp with some fields filled in via custom dialog. I'd like to be able to add extra fields to the side of the stamp for additional, optional text. If that optional text isn't used, the stamp would resize itself to crop off those extra fields (so that it doesn't end up covering any extra space on the target page). I'd like the js within the stamp to be able to get the page number for the call to setPageBoxes, as opposed to me having to specify it explicitly, in case I pass the file around and someone decides to remove one of the other stamps in the file.   I know of 2 workarounds for the issue if I can't

Hello everyone, I noticed such a problem: after hiding comments in a document using code, the file size increases tenfold!function Hide() { this.delay = true; this.syncAnnotScan(); var annots = this.getAnnots(); if (annots==null || annots.length==0) { app.alert("there are no comments in this document", 1); return;} for (var i=annots.length-1; i>=0; i--) { annots[i].setProps({readOnly: false, lock: false}); annots[i].hidden = true;} this.delay = false; app.alert("all comments hide",3); } After optimizing(File - Save as Other - Optimizide PDF) the document, the file size returns to its original size, but after displaying comments and saving, it again grows in size by + 3 MB, and so on each time after the hide/show/save cycle.How to solve this problem? add file optimization to the main code? Or is there an option in the program settings that will clear this automatically? 

My Excel formula is =IF(A3>=DATE(2022,1,1),0.53,0.5) This looks at a cell (e.g., A3) and determines whether or not the date in that cell is after Jan 1, 2022. If it is, then the value is .53 and if not, it is .50. The purpose of this formula is to auto-caluate mileage reimbursement rates. I am not familar with Javascript, though I've been able to learn some things online (how to code if/thens). What I can't figure out is how to represent "greater than xx/xx/xx date" in JS. 

Hi, I could see the free hand draw tool is available in pdf-embed-api.But we need the shape tool for adding squares/rectangles/circles.Is there any plugin available for this? Thanks. 

For my small plugin I'm using next function of DigSig APIDigSigAPCreateLayeredStreamExto create custom appearence. Using DigSigAPCreateLayeredStreamEx I'm filling few layers - one is n1 which I'm using for custom background (stamp) and other - n2 which I'm using for custom text.I've found such function of AcroFormsAFPDFormFromPagewhich helps me to use another PDF as a source for custom stamp as it returns XObject (CosObj) and then such result can be placed (almost) directly to n1 layer for DigSigAPCreateLayeredStreamEx function.All is fine and good until things came to work in Acrobat Reader. From FormsHFT.h of Acrobat SDK it can be seen that AFPDFormFromPage is not available in Reader./* The following APIs are NOT availabe in Reader configuration */ #if !READER_PLUGIN ..... #define AFPDFormFromPage (*((AFPDFormFromPage_SELPROTO)(gAcroFormHFT[AFPDFormFromPage_SEL])))Is there any alternatives for AFPDFormFromPage to use in Acrobat Re

I'm getting this error when trying to create a PDF Form from a Word document: "Knowledge source failed.  <Gather Form Data> [1]". I've created several other forms in the exact same way, but for some reason Acrobat doesn't like the Word source file this time. I can't figure out why. And this same question has been asked before in forums and it has never been answered. Help.

Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me urgently on this one... I have the following formula in excel, but not sure how to change it so it works as Java in the custom calculation field in Acrobat (I've used some online tools but none seem to work).=SUM(B2:Q2)/(13*(COUNTIF(B2:Q2,"<>")))*100 JS wise, this where I've got to....not very far:event.value = ( this.getField("FINALscoreS1").value + this.getField("FINALscoreS2").value + this.getField("FINALscoreS3").value ); There'll be a number of 'FINALscoreS#' fields (yet to be decided). and what I'm after is:The sum of all results in the 'FINALscoreS#' fields, divided by the sum of 13*however many 'FINALscoreS#' have a value (even if that value is zero...so ignoring any blanks).(And then multiplied by 100 to give a percentage - the excel formula works perfectly if that's any use) Does that makes sense? Can anyone help?? Pretty sure there'll be an array involved somewhere... Huge thanks in advance...I expect for a JS
