Hello,I am using a dependant drop down box that changes several drop down choices, however some of the drop down choices are not dependant. I would like all drop downs to clear/ revert to the " " that I have as the primary choice if the dependant is changed, is this possible? If so how would I go about this?

Hello,  I have several dependant boxes, these work fine and change the choices depending on your initial selection, however, when I go to submit the form the code will look for any answers that are "No" and put that into the email. I have this working for non dependable  . Is there some code I am missing for it not to work correctly

Before anyone gives the answer of 'you can install on second machine' or 'you can install on as many machines as you want'.... but can only use one at a time (and it has been said you can remain signed in on both machines) the question is, how do you get Adobe Acrobat DC to work on the second machine.  The tools only say (add) and do not allow them to be used, and the options are 'start a free trial' or 'purchase'.  I purchased and simply want it on my main computer that was not available when I purchased and originally downloaded.How do I get it to work on the second machine.

Hi All,Im currently trying to set up a PDF form where the users can insert screenshots and then sign the form. It works very well with the prepare form -> add an image field tool. If I understand correctly, this creates just a form field with the JavaScript command event.target.buttonImportIcon(). Unfortunately, I cannot find a way to lock the images trough signature. Does anybody know if there is a solution to this? Signature action -> lock all fields does not work, I still can replace the images after. If it does not work by signature, maybe there is a way that the javascript can only be run once to prevent changing the image later.Many thanks in advance for any thoughts on this

I created a form, with several check boxes; the form works fine for me, however, when others try to fill in the form, some of the boxes seem to be linked (even though they have nothing to do with each other).  The boxes are all named different things, so I know it's not that.  Even my IT department can't figure this out, any advice is greatly appreciated!

I have a form with four individual columns that need an average calculated, but with the zeros ignored.  Below is what it looks like.  The fields in each column are either E.  R2.  R3.  R4., wish sequential numbers after each dot. The averages need to calculate in the DLA  row. (Keep in mind this page two, there are numbers on the other, bringing up the sum at the bottom).   I've come across different codes but I am understanding they have to be a document level. How do I do that when I need four different averages?  This is what I have found. Document-level script:  function calcAverage(aFields, bIgnoreBlanks, bIgnoreZeros) {    var total = 0;    var n = 0;    for (var i in aFields) {        var f = this.getField(aFields);        if (f==null) {          &nbsp

In searching through posts it appears I will need to use custom calculation script to ingnore N/A repones in a drop down menu when averaging. This is my first time doing a custom calculation script. I have the drop down Export Values set as 0, 1, 2, 3, and N/A when N/A is selected I would like it excluded from the average. I have 82 drop down menus set-up. Each average will include specific dropdown menus into the average. I have one that should include the following dropdown mensu named: Dropdown7 QMS, Dropdown8 QMS and Dropdown9 QMS. I am hoping someone can help me. 

I have an employment intensity indicator form field that requires a value to be exported between 1 and 8 but also needs to have a 'real' value that is used in calculations. For example, if someone input 35 (hours per week), the field would have an export value of 8 (gov code), but the 35 would still be able to be used in other calculations running on the PDF.  These are the constraints I need to use to allocate the export value:ILR Specification: Attribute field: Employment intensity indicator - GOV.UK (submit-learner-data.service.gov.uk)

I need a code that will calculate the total cost if one of the check boxes are clicked.  For example, if people check "12 Cups" then the "Cost" text box will calculate: 12*1.50/ cup.  If people want 24 cups, then just change the calculation to: 24*1.50/ cup.  So on and so forth.  Any ideas?  

These check boxes have hidden values (1-5) and we would like to calculate the the average of these values only if those particular Check Boxes are checked. The Check Boxes in each row are named the same. Thanks for any help you can provide!

Has any one who uses PDF for PDF accessibility, ever had this error?OCCD (optional content configuration dictionary) contains AS key

My application which loops through multiple pdf documents, copies from a template, opens, populates fields with data and saves stopped working after the November 18, 2021 Windows update.  I have tried different save flags (first parameter on the save), the close function (does not work), upgrading to Windows 11 (still does not work).  Is anyone experiencing similar behaviour?

Hi Guys, hoping someone can help me. I can’t change the unit measurements from inches to mm.  I make the change in the usual way via Preferences, Units and change from inches to millimetres but it won’t stick.  As soon as I close out and restart it defaults back to inches. I am using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro.  I have run a disk repair and looked for latest updates but nothing helps. Can anyone help.Cheers Mark D.

I have this script setup to trigger on mouse up on a button action in my pdf The objective is to cycle through 3 colours so people can mark the status of a text field Red Amber or Green (RAG) This works if I hard code named colors in my events, so I thought I would do the smart thing and declare variables and setup custom colors. This is not working var MyCrimson = ["RGB",0.537,0.776,0]; var MyOrange = ["RGB", 0,0,1]; var MyLimegreen = ["RGB", 0,1,0]; if (color.equal(color.MyCrimson, event.target.textColor)) { event.target.textColor = color.MyOrange; } else if (color.equal(color.MyOrange, event.target.textColor)) { event.target.textColor = color.MyLimegreen; } else event.target.textColor = color.MyCrimson;But this does work (just ugly colors)if (color.equal(color.red, event.target.textColor)) { event.target.textColor = color.yellow; } else if (color.equal(color.yellow, event.target.textColor)) { event.target.textColor = color.green; } else event.target.textColo

I am using Adobe Acrobat DC and I find that I am often making the same formatting changes to things like date fields so that they appear dd/mm/yy or turing off border and fill colours for tick boxes/radio buttons. Is there a way to set these defaults at a program level, so that I don't need to keep making these small changes?

I have used IAC to copy pdf page image to the clipboard.  Here is the code that no longer works (it was working for a long time until a week ago).  The code still works on our old Acrobat XI Pro systems; it fails on Acrobat DC systems.  The exception is always thrown.  Does anyone know what happened or how I can solve the problem?private Image getImageFromDocPage(CAcroPDPage pdfPage){Image img = null;CAcroRect pdfRect = new Acrobat.AcroRect(); // the pdf regionCAcroPoint pdfPoint = new Acrobat.AcroPoint(); // the pdf pointpdfPoint = (CAcroPoint)pdfPage.GetSize();pdfRect.Left = 0;// Tricky!

Hi,I have been using a modified version of the code on this website (Read And Write PDF Forms From Excel (VBA) ~ My Engineering World ) to copy text from an excel document to a PDF template and then save the result. Now I want to have the macro also add in an image to the image field in my template. I'm pretty new to VBA coding, so appologies if this is a dumb question.Basically for my text I was just using "objAcroPDDoc.GetJSObject. GetField.[field name].Value" to highlight the relevant field in the PDF and paste in the value from my excel file. But I'm not sure how to modify it to have it add in an image from a specified file path instead.Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi,I have been using a custom javascript I wrote for years on Acrobat Pro 6. It also works on Acrobat Standard X but I have not been able to get it work on Acrobat Reader DC. The javascript finds a location for a signature field, creates the field, then signs it with a Digital Certificate Signature. everytime the code gets tofield.signatureSignThe console gives  a Notallowed security error. I already have a trusted function etc (this all worked in Acrobat X) but cannot get it to work in DC Reader.After it errors, I can click on the signature field with my mouse and Reader DC pops up up the sign dialog and I can then sign the file, so reader is working with the digital ID, is able to sign the documents etc, but not from javascript? Can anyone tell me whats different, is this a function not available in Reader?Can anyone confirm they can get Adobe Reader DC to  field.signatureSign in javascript correctly  Code section below, it is "C:\Program Files (x86

Hello Adobe Support Community,I'm new to the Acrobat SDK and have only used some of the features. I'm using the Acrobat library through VB.NET right now and I'm trying to check, if an user is actually logged in in Acrobat at the time he's using the program I wrote.Because I will get an error message everytime if I'm not logged in. Is there a way through the Acrobat library to check this?
