Hello I have a c# application that stores documents in Sql Server FileStream.One of my clients would like to be able to edit the document once it's been uploaded and save changes. With Microsoft Word I do this by lanching a Word instance, opening a temporary copy of the file then capturing the close/save of the document and pushing the changes back to FileStream. Can something similar be done with PDF files and Ado Pro 2020? If so can you please point me in the right direction where I can get more details on the interface? Thanks in advanceAllan

Hello I look for a simple standard deviation forumula between 2 numbers (called "ResultOldLot1" and "ResultNewLot1"). The equivalent of STDEV in Excel. I know nothing of java and everytime i try one of the formulas i find online it doesnt work. 

I need to parse the meta-data of a given PDF file to get counters of different types of objects contained in a pdf and extract the various object. Say object of type "/JavaScript" or "/ObjStm".

I have an active Web API that I want to refernce in my script within Adobe Acrobat so that I can pull data from and populate the form fields in my document. I have read around and saw similar questions on these forums but nothing that matched my need or even worked for me. Any help in this area? Thanks in advance.

I am creating a form with mutli pay options available. I would like the first payment amount ("Amount To Be Paid on First Card") to autofill with the total amount but be editable if the total amount ("Amount To Be Paid") is to be split.  In that event, I would also like other fields ("Amount To Be Paid on Second Card") to become required if the first amount is lesser than the total amount. I am entering the following code into the Amount To Be Paid on First Card custom calculation script field.It pulls the auto fill, it makes the secondary payment field required, but it does not allow the amount to be changed from the autofill of the total amount.I am still learning (mostly from this community) and would appreciate any help that can be offered.  My attempt is below.  Thank you for any assistance. event.value = this.getField("Amount To Be Paid").value; var n = this.getField("Amount To Be Paid On First Card").value; if (n < "Amount To Be Paid On Fi

Hi,I am hoping someone maybe able to help. I have been looking through but nothing is specifically working for what I need.I basically have a pdf with some document level javascript but would like to add some more.Basically there are 5 checkbox each saying a deptartment like 'Finance'I was wondering if I could get the checkbox to check when the document is automatically opened and it looks for specific string that contains (so it might have other text around it) "Finance" So for example Filename: 'Document Invoice - Finance - 1234.pdf'Ideally because the document title includes finance it would automatically check the textbox called 'Finance' on the PDF form? If finance wasn't there it wouldn't check the box at allAny help would be much appreciated. Many thanks,

Hi, I'm trying to do something very specific that seems to have been asked many times, but much information appears to be out of date in today's world of security precautions. I am trying to create a button on the last page of a PDF document that will allow a user, using Adobe Reader, to save the last page of the document to a separate PDF file preferably under the same folder as the current PDF that it was "extracted" from. In running the this.extractPages() function, I do not believe that a user has the ability to actually execute this function without going through some major configuration hoops to their Adobe Reader. It would be ideal to have the single page PDF open in a new tab and bring up the dialogue box for the Adobe Reader user to save to a location where they want it to be, and that may sound like it’s a bit more "security-minded" in that the script therefore is not saving the document itself. Using:this.extractPages({nStart:5, nEnd:5, CPath:'profil

I have 2 dropdown menus with auto-filling multiple fields, but they don't work together just one work individually. I've attached the file and I hope anyone can help and know where was the problem. Thanks in advance

Help why cant I use the features?

Hello, I am looking to achieve this several times over 'if "checkbox" is checked, value is sum of "fieldA" and "fieldB", else value is "fieldA"'The formula I put into the Custom calc script is:var x = this.getField("IntB").value;var y = this.getField("ProfB").value;var z = this.getField("Check Box 12").value;if(z == "Yes"){event.value = x + y;}else{event.target.value= x;}I don't receive an error, but the field remains blank. Any help would be greatly appreciated! 

Hello, I'm wondering how I can create a script that will create a bookmark and then name it with a value in the PDF file. The value is a randomized number that will have the same number of characters. So if the pdf is ten pages, I should have ten bookmarks named with that unique number. After this is done my plan is to be able to split the pdf file based on the bookmark. Unless this can be scripted too but that's for another time. Thanks for any help you can provide.

Is it possible to create a plugin that contains a customized button, when the button is clicked, it would post the file to a web app? I know it's doable to send a message to a desktop application using DDE but not sure about the web app. Thanks for any reply.

Hi Recently I had a strange issue with recent Acrobat version such as 2021.001.20135.String cast in the following worked fine.---ASPathName asPathName = ASFileSysPathFromDIPath(m_asFileSys, CT2CA(diPath), relativeToThisPath);CString sFilePath = reinterpret_cast<char*>(asPathName );---But it doesn't work anymore at V 2021.001.20135.So I'm wondering why it doesn't work suddenly. Is there any change on API level? If yes, can I get info about what was updated . Anyway I coluld resolve the issue by using  ASFileSysDisplayASTextFromPath rather than string cast something like the below.--ASFileSysDisplayASTextFromPath(m_asFileSys, asPathName , asText);CString sFilePath =  (LPCTSTR)ASTextGetUnicode(asText);--I believe it's right resolution. ThanksJason

Hi I would like to select a radio button from my tab delimited file I am importing. I am creating the tab file from excel so I am wondering what I put into excel to select the radio button. The option in the button Male has the radio button choice male, so I tried 'male' and 'check' in the excel cell but I guess I must need something else?  I also have check boxes to select so tips on that are also welcome! Thanks

Hi Folks I am trying to find a way to automate opening a PDF form in Reader and import an XML using VBA.  I have been trying with the AcroExch.PDDoc object, but am getting error 462 - the remote server machine does not exist, though I am testing with a PDF file on my local computer.  Any thoughts?  Is there a command line parameter to load an XML file automatically? Thanks.

I purchased the Acrobat Pro subscription to then find out it doesn't work on Microsoft surface pro X. What a waste of money!!! 

Hello.  I am using Acrobat Pro 11.  I have created a few Quantity Text boxes that when they are filled in with a number, there is a Total box that is supposed to show the new total the customer owes.  The problem is the Total Box is not updating when I fill in the number in a Quantity text box.  Total box only updates when you click inside another Quantity Text box and fill it in with a number.  In other words, my Total box is always one step behind.  It shows lower amount than actual.  I was hoping there was a command or java script that forces the Total box to update price data as I enter a number in the Quantity Text box.  Any thoughts?  Thank you in advance.
