We have PDF files that are generated using PHP to send to a printing company. The printing company want us to add Bounding Boxes in these PDFs but with the technologies we're using, there's no way to add them without having the box visible on print paper. Also, since the number of PDFs generated are dynamic, it'll take a lot of work for them to add the Bounding Boxes manually.I'm new to Adobe Acrobat SDK, does anyone know if there's a way to achieve the following tasks:1. Loop through each existing PDFs2. Add / Identify the Bounding Box3. Save file with newly added Bounding Box4. Move to the next PDFThe PDFs each have 2 pages, each page is 336.35mm x 226.35 (with 3.175 mm Bleeds - 6.35mm total), Finished size is 330mm x 220mm. Also, assuming if the bounding box is successfully added, will it be visible in printing paper?Thank you.

I have three radio groups rg1, rg2 and rg3 with 6 option in each. I can calculate the sum of the three selection in each radio group easily. But I also need a text field calculation the number of radio groups checked. So if two of the radio groups are answered the text field should show 2. Is it done with a simple java script? And what would it look like?

I have a payroll claim form in which I need a warning message to appear if the claim date is more than 62 days prior to the current date. The forums and links have been very useful to get me to a point where my script works in a test form with just 3 fields - the claim date, claim value and warning message. The warning message is in a text field with the property set to hidden by default (and I have a document level script to reset its display property on closing). The issue I have is that the script doesn't seem to work consistently now I have placed it into the working form. Essentially if the claim date is entered that is less than 62 days old then the message remains hidden but it also doesn't then appear if a date is entered that is more than 62 days old. If that old date is then deleted from the field on hitting enter the warning message is revealed. If a further date is entered that is less than 62 days old the message will be hidden again. The script I am running is below. Thes

Good morning, I am have set up a form containing two columns of text boxes (20 boxes in each column).  I have made an additional box at the bottom of each column for calculations where-in lies my problem.  I have set the text boxes to automatically put an X in each box by clicking on it, however I need to be able to assign a point value of 5 to each X in the first column and have it populate a score in the box at the bottom of the second column.  I would like the bottom box in the first column to calculate the total number of X's in the second column.  I have attached a section of the form to help explain what I'm trying to do.  I am very new to Adobe Acrobat and have little to no knowledge other than just playing around to figure things out, however this is eluding me.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,I am creating form in Acrobat Pro to allows users to insert images via the Image Field function. Once an image is inserted, a text field below is required to be filled in.I have created a javascript code for a similar scenario involving checkboxes.

Have  been producing    print  brochures   2 up with covers  for  many years but with so many devices  browsers  and viewers available it is becoming a nightmare.  In the past  i could  force  the pdfs  to download   from a website  and  hopefully  it would  be  views  in acrobat reader as would  most email attachment  but with the proliferation of  readers  browsers  and devices  that  can handle  pdfs.   Using  Acrobat specific views  are becoming  problematic.Problem is there are so many advantages to  2 up with covers view  like the ability to print pages   duplex  etc  which  clients seem to  like  but   they complain  that their clients are viewing  the pdf in single page  view.   Currently I am solving this issue

I am using Adobe Acrobat DC Professional. I am creating a user filled PDF. What I want to be able to do is once they fill out a column of information, in the next column, have a check box that asks if this column is the same as the first. If they click Yes, that column's fields auto populate with the first column's information. I am also trying to do the same function on the same form but the user will select using a drop down menu of which columns they want to mirror. Thanks for any help!

I am using Action Wizard to insert blank pages on odd page documents.

Good morningI currently have Adobe Pro XI version Adobe 11.0.23 on a Windows 10 ComputerI have created several stamps in the past to place a signature at an indicated place on a document.  I first have the person sign a piece a paper, scan the document into adobe, save it as a .jpg image, then go into paint.net, make background transparent and save as a .gif image.  Then I go back into Adobe, click on the stamp tool, click on custom stamp, create custom stamp, browse for the image, etc.Then I go find the stamp in adobe in the C drive stamp folder--and using the template feature change the name to a more manageable name with #NameOfStampAfter that, I make a java script file with the following script.function NameOfFunction(oDoc){var cStampName = "#NameOfStamp";var oStamp = this.addAnnot ({page:this.pageNum, type:"Stamp",   AP: cStampName,  rect:[97.92,170.64,247.68,192.96]});}app.addToolButton({cName: "NameOfStamp",       &nbsp
