Is there any mistake in this script?I wanted to add few variables in a pdf form, but it is not working: (I am a learner) (this.getField("A").value)*10+ (this.getField("B").value)/3.5+(this.getField("C").value)*2+(this.getField("D").value)/2+(this.getField("E").value)/4+(this.getField("F").value)/0.227+(this.getField("G").value)/2+ ((this.getField("H").value)||(this.getField("I").value))+((this.getField("Text1").value)||(this.getField("Text2").value) ||(this.getField("Text3").value)); Thanks,

Is there a way to make a form field in a pdf switch to read only after a user supplies an input value to the text box? Basically I have a design I converted into template that my client wants to send to different branches and have them personalize it by adding in their own information to make it local. Since the branches can email them to customers, it cannot look like it was a template and so I need the fields to disappear and only show the text.  Read only is the only way I found that makes the fields inactive. But I cannot find a way or a script that converts them to read only after input. Also I have to keep in mind that most branches will only have Reader. Any help would be very much appreciate!I have been trying to figure this out for days with no luck and I have to get it back to my client as soon as I can. (I am pretty sure that none of the recipients would know how or have an e-signature to sign it in order to lock it up that way)

Hello! I have created a calendar that requires filling in an intial date and then other dates autopopulate. I am running into a strange thing where I enter the date and up to date field 9 is populated. But then I have to re-enter the date in the first field again in a slightly different format for date fields 10 and on to populate. For example, I can enter "9/3" and date field up to field 9 auto-populate. But then I have to enter it again as either "09/3" or "9/3/20" for the other fields to also fill in. I'm thinking it might have to do with the custom script I'm using in the auto-populated fields but don't see any issues. Anyway, I am perplexed so thought I would throw it out to see if anyone had ideas. thanks! Josie

Is there a way to have a javascript run when combining two PDF Forms? I need to hide specific fields in each form that are normally managed by a document level javascript function.  It seems that when merging PDF files, the all javacript scripts embedded in the forms are stripped when merged using the combine files tool.  If merging one file into an open file then only the scripts from file 2 are stripped. FYI, all functions and global variables in each form are unique. I created two forms, each of which has an error readonly form that dislayes if the document is not opened in Acrobat or Reader on either Mac or PC.   Here is a screen shot of the warning message displayed on top of page 1.  It is the first form in the field.  The text and formationg was enteried into the field as ReadWrite then set to ReadOnly when finished.:  At the to of the document level javascript of each form is the following (Unique variables and function nam

I'm trying to create a survey that will allow people to identify movies they do or do not like. I would then like people to pick, among the ones they do like, the ones they like best and among those they don't like, the ones they like the least. My idea is to copy all the yes items into a section 2, part a form, and all the no answers into a section 2, part b form, so that people can then select from those specific sections. Is there a relatively easy way to do this using javascript? The movies listed in section one will be selected as check boxes as opposed to radio buttons. Not sure if this matters at all, but thought worth mentioning. Thank you!

Hello All, I have to write a Java scrript to User not to upload Images for More than 45 kb. I have checked the Bible did not find anything related to images size Validation , Could you please help me with this.

Hi.  I'm trying to import an image into an image field on a form by passing an argument.  The argument is the fully qualified path + file.  I saw the following short script in a post and I am trying to tweak it to make it work ... var a =this.getField ("Hidden Text").valueAsString;var b =this.getField ("Application Images(Screenshots)").valueAsString;event.target.buttonImportIcon(a+b); I have also tried to hard code the argument, and the field will not accept the image. [ event.target.buttonImportIcon("/C/myPath/Image1.jpg"); ]I get nothing ... Any suggestions would be much appreciated.  Thanks!!

I am using a drop box in a acrobat XI form and using the below code to populate timesheet fields depending on how many work orders have been done during the shift. If i execute the javascript in the calculate tab of the field it executes extremely fast, but won't let me input the field manually because it erases them on the next scan. If I put the code in the validate tab it executes extremely slow, like 4 seconds, but allows for manual time entries in the fields. I'v tried simplifying the code, function calls, and running as a text box, but it all comes out the same...am I stuck with the lag or does someone know a trick? Please and Thank You. //Reset the FROM and TO fieldsReset2()// Resets the below fields//Check selection and input time values// 1 Work Orderif (event.value == 1){this.getField("FROM21").value = "07:45";this.getField("TO21").value = "16:15";}// 2 Work Orderselse if (event.value == 2){this.getField("FROM21").value = "07:45";this.getField("TO21").value = "11:45";thi

Hi, I'm trying to fill out an application using Adobe Acrobat Reader DC version 2015.010.20056 that I just recently updated to.

I am using a MacBook Air Mac OS X El Capitan 10.11.2Adobe Acrobat Reader DC Version 2015.010.20056

I have a PDF form where I have infomration about X customer. Call it Pickup Info. I then have another set of fields below that with info about Y customer. Call it Delivery Info. I am trying to create a one click button that will take the form filled text from "Delivery Info" and replace the current text in the fields under "Pickup Info". Thus allowing a 1 click swap of this text vs manualy copying the text over. Would this require java script? if so, would this be difficult to create a script for? I am not familar with Javescript, but understand the flow of Form creatation.  Thanks for the help.

I would like to group multiple comments together using JavaScript.  I can do it manually - select objects, right-click, group - but cannot find any data on how to do it using JavaScript.  I would be appreciative if anyone could point me in the right direction on this. I am aware of the current issue with grouped objects not staying together when being moved, but I still need to use the functionality. Thanks!Nick
