Acrobat SDK

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

Hi there. I just purchased Adobe Acrobat Reader DC and I can't seem to figure out how to EDIT a PDF file. I want to EDIT certain things from my PDF file, such as the text and Image Logo but it's not allowing me. Please HELP!!

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

Hi to everyone, I am a Delphi(Pascal) developer but I am able write code enough in JS and C, and I would like to develop an Adobe DC / Acrobat Reader plugin that fetchs data from internet and modify/manipulate the pdf content.First problem is I've never developed any plugin for Acrobat/Reader yet. Second problem is I don't know how to do it? (I am glad to hear your suggestions about IDE(if possible), examples, etc.). 3rd problem is; I don't know is it possible to make this kind of plugin for Adobe DC / Acrobat Reader? I am not sure about OS issues, Adobe DC / Acrobat Reader version problems and Adobe DC / Acrobat Reader SDK capability problems.I hope this newbie question is in right place. Thanks right now.

Hello, I am VERY new to Javascript and have been scouring these threads to find a solution, but I'd appreciate any assistance! I'm trying to develop a conditional form with 8 checkboxes. If a checkbox is selected, I want the applicable text to appear. I was able to make this work using the Actions Tab and "Show/hide a field." However, if the checkbox is unchecked, I'd like the text to be hidden. I drafted the code for a text field, but that didn't seem to work:if (event.target.value("CHECKBOX").value=="Off")event.target.value("TEXTFIELD").value=""; Also are there any suggestions as to how to adjust the formatting if only 4 of 8 checkboxes are applied? I tried to input the terms into a table, but I'm not sure how that would work...

Sorry for the continued questions, I'm hoping this will the last one I curently have a checkbox set up to spawn a template using the below, so when you click it, it spawns a template after a specified page this.getTemplate("Section1").spawn(this.getField("Marker1").page+1, true, false); I want it to remove this page though when you uncheck the box, is that doable? Thanks for any help! 

I have a contents page with checkboxes that I need to set to spawn template pages from. I need them to spawn at specified points in the document, so they come after pages already in the PDF. I can't use page numbers as the page count will vary depedning on what's been selected. So I was thinking of making them spawn based on a page name or title, so it spawns after that page? Is that possible at all? Thanks for ay help
