Acrobat SDK

Hey guys, I've got a weird issue that I'm pretty sure is caused by my work's local security policies: I use Notepad++ as my external editor. Recently (like 7 months ago), I found I wasn't able to use it. When I try to open a script through Adobe Acrobat into the external editor, Notepad++ opens with the following error: "C:\Users\130027~1\AppData\Local\Temp\acrobat_sbx\Adobe\Acrobat\DC\JSEdit.js" doesn't exist. Create it?Options are 'Yes' and 'No'. 'Yes' creates a blank file JSEdit.js, which will load back into Adobe Acrobat just fine. 'No' creates the standard new file, which I can manually save as JSEdit.js and then Adobe Acrobat will load it on close. My home copy of Adobe Acrobat Pro 2017 doesn't have this issue.  My questions: If I'm right and this is security policy blocking Adobe Acrobat from writing to it's own temp directory, is there a way I can point this at another direct that Acrobat does have write access to? Is there another w

Hi All,I'm looking at creating a Javascript button that when clicked brings up the red pen so users can sign their names in a box.I have been reading this and Thom Parker has provided an answer but I am still slightly confused.Re: To draw in the pdf using pen tool in acrobat reader x If I was to escalate this to my service desk what exactly would I tell them to do with a step by step process?And once its enabled I'm assuming the following line of code will automatically bring up the pen tool ready for use?app.execMenuItem("Annots:Tool:InkMenuItem");Also assuming this will work in both running Adobe DC Reader and DC Pro?Cheers,Seb.

Disappointed been trying to cancel my trial, couldn’tcancel it since a month ago and keep on getting a bill. tried to cancel it via account, tried to contact adobe support no luck no response. I am having sever anxiety dealing with this. Please or the 10th time cancel my trial. I already have a subscription with adobe. I never intended to even try the trial. This is the order number, so please please cancel my trial. I am being charged for a subscription I do not need. My heart is aching from this thank you, appreciate if I get an answer from Adobe..  AD00733900019CCA

I've read multiple posts about this - which helped a lot but... I'm having...odd issues...I have a Google Form and Sheet. I've copied the field IDs using Get Prefilled link. I'm trying to get this to work with a short form - 6 fields...text, integers, and a date. I'm up to about a dozen trials submitting it. When I submit I always get a timestamp but only the first field (L Name). In Acrobat, the fields are named "entry.xxxxxxxxx" - matching what I get from the prefilled link. In the prefilled link the reference is: "entry.498728576=Weasley&entry.238933929=Fred&entry.672957676=2011-11-11..." I tried entering the ampersand both before the second field and after the first field. I received a General Error. After removing the ampersand fields 1 and 2 were sent to the Sheet???? Did not make sense, but I tried that with field 3 with no positive result. When all 6 fields in Acrobat are named "entry.xxxxxxxxx" I get a General Error message. What am I missing?

Hi, I recently received my personnel file from my time of military service and it came in disc form requiring me to have adobe flash player on my adobe reader. I have a windows 11 acer laptop that does not have flash player already on it so I can't view my records at the moment due to flash player being blocked and removed from your site. I really need flash player. It's so I can view my records and get my medical benefits due to the exposures I had in Afghanistan. I understand that this is an inconvenience for you guys but this is a major inconvenience for me as well. I'm hoping to  even purchase a copy if possible

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?
