Hi. I'm considering performing the following processing automatically for multiple files in different folders.(1)Using Edit PDF -> Header & Footer -> Add to insert page number in specified font at the center of footer andchange the margins(top,bottom,left,right)(2)run a custom action to protect the pdf file.I tried inserting the page number using "addField" as below through IAC, but I donn't know which the property to change the margin andit seems that the page number inserted using "addField" is different with the result of (1) process.-------------------------Set acroFooter = jso.addField(CStr("xftPage" & i - 1 & 1), "text", i - 1, Array(bStart, 30, bEnd, 15))acroFooter.Value = "Page: " & i + 1 & "/" & TotalPagesacroFooter.textSize = 6acroFooter.ReadOnly = FalseacroFooter.Alignment = "center"-------------------------Because it is possiable to add a new action that executes the process of (1) and I have to execute the (2) action ,so I thought about t

Hello everyone,I have excel spreadsheet that I'd like to convert into a fillable PDF but I don't know how to write in Javascript, can someone please help me ?Here is what I do in Excel : - There is three variables Var A, Var B and Var B (picture 1) - Depending of theses variables there is a first calculation (picture 2) - And to finish a last calculation that show the result in one cell (picture 3)For information "SI" means "IF" and "ET" means "AND"Thank you very much for your help 

In Adobe Acrobat Pro 2017 I have pages of fillable form fields. Let's say something changes on one of the pages, I delete the page from the document, scan the new copy in and add new form fields (separate from the main document). When I try to use "Organize Pages" to insert the new page back in to the old document I have issues where either my signature fields dissapear or text fields will dissapear or change names to "i" and then when I try to delete them I can't. It seems to bug the whole page. Any suggestions? I have made sure that the form field names are unique or that if there are any of the same names that they are of the same type. Seems like there is no good way to replace pages with fillable form fields without bugging the document, I've even tried the portfolio method and same thing happens.  

I have Acrobate ver 9 pro and now when I try to scan to PDF, the software can no longer find my scanner. I have tried to reinstall the scanner, but that did not fix the problem. The scanner software that cam with my scanner does not have a problem finding the scanner. Any ideas

Hi there, please can someone help me with a question about the user cancelling a dialog? I have a js process that works ok.What I'm having a problem with is the user cancelling a dialog. var exitDialog = 0; while (exitDialog !=999) { var cRtn = app.response("How many checkboxes would you like (1-9) ?"); if (cRtn > 0 && cRtn < 10) { var exitDialog = 999; } else { if (cRtn == null) {break;} app.alert('Please enter a value from 1-9'); } } // the rest of the process happens here and that works ok.I can run the code above and it works fine apart from if the user cancels the dialog.If I run the code above in the debugger it works ok. When I load it as a custom menu item it still works ok until the user cancels.What I'm trying to do is allow the user to cancel the operation by pressing the 'Cancel' button on the dialog. Plea

Specifically, I have a form field that I'd like to be subjected to the date formatting (mm/dd/yyyy). Rather than rely on a tooltip or other means to alert the user to this format, I'd prefer to use the Default Value on the form field (text field properties>options>default value). When I enter the default value I'd prefer, mm/dd/yyyy, it's rejected by the form as the date formatting takes precedence over this label. This makes sense to me, but I do not know another work-around to remedy this scenario. For what it's worth, here is my code from the custom validation field:if (event.value) { if (util.scand("mmddyyyy", event.value)==null){ app.alert("Please format date: mm/dd/yyyy."); event.rc = false; } }Any help would be sincerely appreciated. Thanks!

Hello, I am recreating a form we use at work, and I am a novice at best when it comes to java script. The two things I want to accomplish are; One, have an auto generated number with either a two or four digit year as the prefix. This is for organization of the forms. Two, I want to be able to add photos to the form that can be viewed full size and/or printed when the form is accessed from its saved location. Can anyone help me with this? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I'm trying to copy an existing hyperlink to another part of the same pdf. I'm not a sophisticated Adobe Acrabat user so I would appreciate  step-by-step instructions.Thanks so much.

I am trying to combine multiple files within a folder into a single PDF. I need to be able to select which specific files I need from the list via multiple select. Before my recent change of laptop, I was able to select a checkbox next to each file and combine the selected files into a single PDF.However, after switching laptops, I now must hold the control button down to select multiple files. My question is, how do I get the option to select the checkbox next to each file back? There must be some setting somewhere that I am missing. Thanks in advance for your help!

Hello,I've developed a custom Acrobat Reader plugin for digital signature using a remote signature provider. The signature part works as expected, but I have a problem with the signature validation after a successful signature.By default Acrobat tries to validate a signature using my plugin and fails, but I don't wish to implement a signature validation in my plugin.I want to fallback to Acrobat reader validation that works perfectly well. The only way I was successful in doing this is by setting the following setting:Verification Behaviour -> When Verifying -> Always use the default method: "Adobe Default security" So my question is how can i achieve this programmatically in my plugin code? Thank you in advance.

Is there a way to allow various time formats into a "Time" field but have the field contents display HH:MM?Using the Format tab of the field's Properties, it seems to allow only one format, but the PDF users want more flexibility. Specifically, to input with or without a comma, but output in the field with a comma.Thanks.

I am trying to take the contents of a multi-line text field and split them into an array by the newline escape character but its not working at all.For reference im trying to make it so that my boss can edit the staff members on a staffing form (as people are hired) by editing the text field, they would then be included in drop down menus. var dropdownexample = this.getField("dropdownmenu")var stafflist = this.getField("stafflist")var arr = stafflist.value.split(/\n/);dropdownexample.setItems(arr); I am just confused why its not picking up the newline character... Im more accustomed to python where this isn't usually a problem. I would greatly appreciate any help y'all have to offer. Thanks!

Actually there are two requirements which are (1. Document to be opened in shared review mode automatically through programming by owner) and (2. Simultaneous commenting on the document by users). We are facing problem in 1st part. Please refer the problem statement below. Problem Statement – I have multiple PDF files stored at one network folder which is shared with all the users so basically all the users have access to those PDFs. The one who creates the PDF is the owner of that document and the ones who will put comments in that PDF are the users. What I want here in this requirement is that when user opens the PDF, then it should open in review mode directly so that user can put his or her comments and when he clicks on “publish comments”, it will be seen to other user who has opened the same document at his or her machine using “Check for new comments”. This commenting part is feasible as I checked that on my machine but the real problem is to open document in review mo

I have a column on my form that enumerates the days in a month. I want to setup a hidden field that calculates the total number of days in a month based on month and year field inputs. The number of days will determine what shows up on the column. For example, if I put 4 in the month field, and 2016 in the year field, I get 30 in the hidden field. So on the "Day" column, I will have numbers 1 to 30 listed. Or if I put 2 in the month field and 2016 in the year field, I get 29 in the hidden field. So the numbers 1 - 29 will be listed in the "Day" column.Found this code from some javascript forum://Month is 1 basedfunction daysInMonth(month,year) {   return new Date(year, month, 0).getDate();}//JulydaysInMonth(7,2009); //31//FebruarydaysInMonth(2,2009); //28daysInMonth(2,2008); //29I don't know how to convert this code to adobe JavaScript and don't really know how to use it. All I know how to do is to setup the field values for the month and year fields as variables. I am a novi

Hello,I am trying to find a code that uses the Luhn Algorithm in a editable PDF file to confirm that a credit card number is valid before saving the file.I'm not finding anything that is specific to a cc number, though I did find something useful that uses the algorithm to validate a Swedish ss number.I don't think I know that right questions to ask to generate guidance on the internet.Any assistance that can be provided would be most appreciated.Thank you in advance!

HiI understand that this a forum for Acrobat SDK. However, I'm still posting this question here because -1. I couldn't find a forum specifically for Adobe PDF lib2. The PDF lib is a subset of the Acrobat SDK (minus the AV layer) so I'm guessing this is "relevant" here too(Please let me know if I'm mistaken) That having been said here it is..We have licensed Adobe PDF SDK that we're using within an in-house service (in a Linux container) to convert PDFs to PDF/X-1a (for reliable printing). This works perfectly most of the time. However, some of the PDFs fail conversion. We get a "[Error 269221888] PDFX Font Error Occured". We're using code which is very similar to that in PDFProcessor.cpp (included in the SDK samples) ie: using the PDFProcessorConvertAndSaveToPDFX. This function is not listed in the docs so I'm guessing that this is an "undocumented  plugin" that comes with the SDK.We know that the failing PDFs have some "unembedded fonts" and so installed the missing fonts bu
