Hello, I am having some issues with a VBA script. I am fairly new to this so there may be some issues I don't see. My main issue right now is that the forms are being filled but the save function is not working. I can see the forms are being filled but closed without saving. ultimately leaving me with blank forms.  I downloaded and installed the SDK as per the page I found but maybe I don't have the right ones enabled or installed. Also my script is a mishmash of a ton of other threads I've found online so maybe its faulty from its base level.Thanks in advance!Sub FillDocuments() 'Step 1 Define Variables Dim FileNm, gApp, avDoc, pdDoc, jso Dim i As Integer Dim Path As String Dim ProjectName As String Dim EQID As String Dim SubNum As String Dim FileName As String Dim QCForm As String 'LOOP Start i = 2 Do 'Step 2 Define Data from Excel Sheet ProjectName = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("EQData").Cells(i, 1).Value EQID = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("EQData

I just started to use Adobe Acrobat Pro DC and I use stamps on a daily basis.  In v10 of Adobe, when I selected a stamp, it would stay with my cursor so each time I moved to a new page I could place the same stamp just by clicking the mouse button.  In this new version, I have to reselect the same stamp from the stamp palette each time I want to place it on a page.  How can I have this stamp stay active so that I can place it on different pages without having to go back to the palette each time?

Hi all,I'm creating a pdf right now which has to be filled out by our customers.Due to Audit restrictions every field has to contain a valid value. - if nothing is entered the field should display "n.a.".My code right now:event.rc = true;if (event.value==""|| event.value ==""||event.value==0){    event.value="n.a."}Problem is: It's valid only for one field and triggered by selecting the cell. - I'm searching for something like a Loop which checks all empty cells after finishing the editing.. (at saving, or signing digitally)Many thanks in advance, I appreciate it kindly regards Fango

I have a key to sign my application for use in Acrobat Reader. I have had a working 32-bit plugin for some time and recently upgraded my project for use with the new Acrobat Reader 64-bit version. I have added the 64-bit configuration to my project and am able to successfully build. I am then using the 64-bit signtool.exe supplied in the latest version of the SDK to sign my plugin using my existing keypair and cert. When acrobat is opened, the plugin loads and I do not get the "Invalid Plugin Detected" message, however shortly after opening the application crashes. I have tried the same process on the latest "BasicPlugin" in the SDK and the same thing happens. Everything is still working when built for 32-bit using the new 32-bit signtool.exe. Is anyone seeing a similar problem? Any help would be really appreciated.

Hi, I like to create a form where I can import an image and text by a user and export those inputs in txt file. For the image import i'm currently using the "event.target.buttonImportIcon()" in JS and for the export to a txt-file I use JS to write the user input into a variable which is saved in the text file. Is it possbile to process the imported image in any way? I thought of exporting it as a base64 text for example. Where and how is the image saved when using "buttonImportIcon()") I tried "var photo = (event.target.buttonImportIcon());" and exporting 'photo' but the output is just "0. Thanks for any help in advance! 

Hey guys, I've got a fun twist on the common "merge signed PDFs" question: I have forms that need digital signatures, however they are intended to be printed after being QC'd by our admins. Each form is precisely 1/3 of a Letter sheet.  How can I preserve the appearance of the digital signature AND print 1x3 per page?And how can I make this process completely, or nearly, seamless for my admins?  Portfolios are already a 'no' because they don't allow mixing of the files when printing, which is a such an obnoxious feature miss.  I see two options:1. Fancy JavaScript and fields to extract the signature's appearnce and then mimic it right after it's digitally signed by the customer.2. JavaScript button to flatten the current file and then invoke the Merge Documents option. I'd love to know if there's a better way to handle this.-Azure's Skye(Yes, I am well aware of the purpose/intent difference between a digital siganture and a wet signature and

Quick question: Does anyone have documentation on how barcodes fields are supposed to work in Adobe Acrobat DC Pro? The SDK References don't mention them except under usage rights and I've been stumbling through the dark on making best use of them.  I did have a specific question, but it's escaping me right now 😢-Azure's Skye

Hello,  I am new to Acrobat/Javascript and have been using tutorials on here to come up with a barebones worksheet. I am using this code to show different text fields & layers based on drop down selection but the text fields for HHG & NTS are not showing up when testing. This is the code I am using; var layers = this.getOCGs();var v = event.value;for (var i = 0; i < this.layers.length; i++) {if (layers[i].name == "HHGNTSc1" && v == "Household Goods (HHG)") {layers[i].state = true;this.getField("Group1").display = display.visible;this.getField("Group2").display = display.hidden;} else if (layers[i].name == "HHGNTSc1" && v == "Storage (NTS)") {layers[i].state = true;this.getField("Group1").display = display.visible;this.getField("Group2").display = display.hidden;} else if (layers[i].name == "UBc1" && v == "Unaccompanied Baggage (UB)") {layers[i].state = true;this.getField("Group2").display = display.visible;this.getField("Group1").displa

Anyone have any insight on setting an element's Alternate Text field using strings with accents (i.e. à, é, ô)? I'm able to set the value using PDSElementSetAlt, but if the text is using accents (French, Spanish, German) then the accented characters are not showing up correctly.For example, I have a P struct with "à la maison" as the textual content for the node. I then try to set the Alt Text for that tag using PDSElementSetAlt. The result is that it comes out as "‹ la maison" in the Alternate Text field in the Object Properties panel. The à gets saved as ‹ If I print out the string using AVAlertNote, I get the correct "à la maison" printed.but Alt Text field does not show accented characters.Here are the 3 lines of code that generate the Alert Note, and set the PDSElement's Alt Text:sprintf(str,"Setting Alt Text for <%s> element to \"%s\"", nodeName, altText ); AVAlertNote(str); PDSElementSetAlt( pdsElement, (ASUns8 *)altText, (ASInt32)strlen(altText));I'm a

Good afternoon,I am looking to use Adobe Acrobat Pro's Request Signatures feature in order to help lower the amount of paper we are using. I have to get two signatures from a number of various executives. Is there a way that I can submit a form to all of the signatories and limiting the requirements to only two signatures? The goal is to be able to send one document to all of them, but have the document close and return to me after two signatures. Thank you! 

Hello. I am trying to create a dropdown with about ten selections, then with that selection, make data relative to thatspecific selection auto populate in separate fields.For example, If I create a dropdown and I select "home" from my dropdown, I want my street address to populate inthe next field, the city in the field after, and so on with the state and zip code. If I were to select "work", I would wantmy work address to auto populate in the next several fields.For clarification, I know how to create the dropdown with the selections, I just can not figure out how to get therelative information for each selection in the dropdown to auto populate.If I select "HOME" from the dropdown, what do I need to do to get "123 Anywhere St" to populate in theADDRESS field, "New York" in the CITY, "New York" in the STATE, and 55555 in the ZIP fields?

Hi, I am a learner of adobe plugin SDK. I am developing acrobat plug-ins with the latest acrobat SDK The following problems were found during the test: a) The plug-in cannot generate files to the computer. It has permission protectionb) Crash occurs when the plug-in copies multiline text.  If I turn off the protection mode, I won't have the above two problems.

Hi, I'm trying to create a script that will change the fill color of a text box depending on the value.  The text box is formatted to numbers only, with no decimals.  The text has transparent fill and border by default and will be empty by default.  The desired behavior is if text box value = 0, 1, 2, or 3 then change fill color to red and border color to blue.  If blank or > 3 then fill and border color should be transparent.  The problem I'm having is that if the text box is blank, it applies the red fill color/blue border color.  I have the trigger as On Focus and again On Blur, trying to account for what our staff may potentially do when working with this document.  My company has ADOBE ACROBAT STANDARD DC. Any guidance would be appreciated! My code so far:var nRemSup = this.getField("Rm Supply text box 1").value;var fld = this.getField("Rm Supply text box 1");if((nRemSup < 4) && (nRemSup >= 0)) {fld.fillColor

Hi, I am working on a 5 page document that has a checkbox located on page 1 for supplemental information if needed.  When CB is selected, it makes template visible.  How do I add to the code to put it in the next page (page 2) of the document and not go to the end?  Below is the code that is currently in the checkbox.  I have searched multiple support threads and tried varies ways to add npage, but seem to be unsuccessful.  I am not a JS guru by all means.  Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance! if(event.target.value!="Off"){this.getTemplate("Extended").hidden=false;}else{this.getTemplate("Extended").hidden=true;}
