Questions

Just wondering if there is a way to do this. I'm creating a fillable pdf(using InDesign), where users must go through and check boxes to answer questions. I want to know if there's a way so that once they've filled in the form and hit save, the PDF would then generate an extra page that has the cumulative results from all the checkboxes, seeing as the questions will be spread out over several (30-40) pages, and one place to show all these results would be great. Someone in the InDesign forum mentioned getting someone to do this in Javascript??

Is it possible to create a nested tag tree as a group rather than individual create each tag? Say there is a list that needs to be tagged manually; I would have to create the <L> list tag and then any <LI> list item (and each list items’ label <Lbl> and list body <LBody>) after. Is there a way to auto-populate the nest so if I insert an <L> tag, it would already have a list item <LI> nested inside it?

I want to flatten, save and email a PDF using javascript. The document will be saved on a local server but emailed to someone who will not always have access to. I want the file to be sent as PDF but when it arrives to the recipient they get the error message that the file cannot be found as they do not have access to the server..What is the best javascript to use here?I'm using Windows, have Acrobat DC.

I took a packet that's broken up in 7 different files and combined them all as one .pdf. Problem is, I'm in the Navy and doing that is technically "altering an official document" (even though all I did was essentially copy/paste), which is a big no-no. The way it exists now, it takes longer to open/save/print each file than it does to do the work. So, I combined them and automated where I could, now it takes about 15 seconds vice 15 minutes+. But, I need to get the 4 .docx and 1 .xlsx back to their native format after they've been filled out in the master file, then knock the other 2 ranges out as .pdf. I'm not sure how, but this worked perfectly once using:this.extractPages(start,end,'/C/myPath/myFilename.docx', 'com.adobe.acrobat.docx'); In a button action. Which (as I understand it) shouldn't be possible. The file saved where I wanted, with the name I wanted, in the right format, and looked flawless. Then I made the huge mistake of leaving my work PC on overnight and came back to a

I have a form set up for users to score individuals in 8 categories. At the bottom of the form, I have created a field that adds up all of the previous scores that I'll refer to as TOTAL SCORE. I now want to create a text field that will automatically display certain text (5 possible values) when the value of TOTAL SCORE falls within a certain range.For example,If the TOTAL SCORE field is > 16, I want the text box field to automatically populate to say "UNACCEPTABLE".If the TOTAL SCORE field is between 16-23, I want the text box field to automatically populate to say "NEEDS IMPROVEMENT".If the TOTAL SCORE field is between 24-31, I want the text box field to automatically populate to say "MEETS REQUIREMENTS".If the TOTAL SCORE field is between 32-39, I want the text box field to automatically populate to say "EXCEEDS REQUIREMENTS".If the TOTAL SCORE field is equal to 40, I want the text box field to automatically populate to say "OUTSTANDING".

Hello!I am trying to find a way to have an Index automatically add new PDF files once added to a folder? Is this possible?I am trying to get companies to use the Index feature more, but everyone has the same issue. Great at starting it, not great at adding the new ones to rebuild the existing Index. So, I am trying to find a way to automate that process.Any thoughts, suggestions or guidance here?Cheers,babs

I have a script that counts the checked boxes up to a predefined number (lets say 5) and stops users from checking more boxes. But when I close and reopen I can check another 5. Is there a way to prevent this from happening? //----------------------------Document JavaScript Code ----------------------------var counter = 0;                 // Checked counter//--------Count Checked boxes again when document is closed and re-opened ------------for (var i =0; i<= 100; i++){          if (getField("chkBox" + i).value == "Yes"){          counter += 1;          }}//-------------Validation Function ---------------------------------------------------function validateCheckBox(name,value){          if (value == "Yes" && counter &lt

Hello, I've created a form in which certain check boxes and fields are required. When clicking on the submit button, I would like it to verify if those check boxes and fields have been filled in. If they have, then send a mail with the PDF. However, if they haven't, then highlight the empty fields. Unfortunately, I know pretty much nothing of JavaScript, which means that if I find an article that shows the solution, it doesn't work for me (probably because I didn't specify the names of the fields...). Can you please help me out?The check boxes that need to be filled in are "Customer" and "Site". The fields that are required are "Name" and "Contact".

Greetings,I am designing a form that will be filled out in three steps.  I have it set up to show the fields for the first person and have the second and third person's fields hidden.  When the form is signed digitally, the action will lock the fields on page one, make the fields visible on page two and then (This is the part I cannot figure out) email the form intact to the next person (hard coded) for them to complete their section.  When they sign the form it will lock the fields on page 2, make visible the fields on Page 3 and save it (yes, I have to figure this out too) in a specific location for the final person to complete and sign.  The final signature will lock the remaining fields and save the file in a new location (repeat of the previous signature script with a new location).I have successfully created the first script to switch the fields, but when I use the script to email the form, it arrives without any data or fields for the next person.Any directio

Is there a way apply different formatting to text as default text in a text box?In the example shown, I would like to have the first word (shown in green in the example) bold - and the rest normal unbold.   Unfortunately, applying formatting appears to apply to the entire contents of the "Default Value" - not just selected text. If that isn't possible, can the text box have a title?

I am trying to add in proper script for my form in order to calculate certain fields but am running into NaN (Not a number) error codes.Additionally, I would prefer for all cells to remain blank until filled in and they start to populate. I would also like to format the first three columns in the table as number (currency) and the last one as percentage but am running into additional error codes when doing so.To my understanding, I need custom calculation script rather than my simplified field notation to ensure I am able to do this but I am not familiar enough with JavaScript to do this myself. I have taken a partial screen shot of the specific table I am talking about below:       I would be looking for the proper JavaScript to put into columns 3 and 4. Any assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance for your time
