Is there any Acrobat SDK I can use to add a sub-menu in an existing Acrobat context menu?  For example, the Content panel can be brought up by Acrobat's View->Show/Hide->Navigation Panes->Content.  On the content panel, one can select 1 or more items, right-click brings up a context menu.  If I want to add a custom menu option to allow me to access the selected object(s) and perform my own custom actions, is it possible and if so, how do I do that?  See the menu in the screenshots below.  - Thanks!Thanks.

I have a simple form where I have buttons that attach a copy of the document to an email.  I want a script that replaces the "approve" or "decline" button when it's clicked, with something that says "approved", THEN attaches to the email. Then on the final approval, the entire form becomes read-only.  I am using Pro 2017.This is a form that will travel along an approval path, until it's approved at the top level.

I tried populating the fields of a spawned template right from the spawn button but it seems like the fields of the template remain inexistant until the script ends.I have 60 pairs of fields containing a person and an account balance.  Upon spawning, I need only to list all the people with a positive balance in a field (a simple string) then deduct 5$ from the balancevar a = this.getTemplate("groupe")a.spawn()var aParticipants = []for (var mySolde=0;mySolde<=59;mySolde++){if (this.getField("solde."+mySolde).value >= 5){this.getField("solde."+mySolde).value -= 5aParticipants.push(this.getField("membres."+mySolde).valueAsString)}}//Show participantsvar prefix = "P"+this.numPagesvar group0 = this.getField(prefix+".groupe.list.0")for (i in aParticipants){ group0.value += aParticipants+"\n"}How can I add values to my newly spawned page's fields?

Hallo Community,erstmals vielen Dank für die vielen Informationen die ich zu anderen “Projekte“ finden konnte. Leider komme ich nun nicht wirklich weiter und konnte auch kein zielführenden Beitrag zu dem oben genannte Thema finden. Deswegen habe ich mich nun registriert und hoffe das Ihr mir hier weiter helfen könnt und dieser Beitrag auch anderen weiter helfen wird.Derzeit bin ich dabei ein Tool via VS2017;VB zu entwickeln. Dieses Tool soll PDF Inhalte in ein XML schreiben. Genau wie die Funktion "Exportieren in ein XML (1.0)".Das PDF wurde auch von mir mit ES4 erstellt. Es ist zudem ein interaktives PDF. Ziel ist es nun die Eingaben mit diesem Tool auszulesen und in ein XML-File zu schreiben.Ich habe einige freie DLL´s ausprobiert, nur liefern diese immer nur die "Festen"-Werte und nicht die Dynamischen.Weiß einer wie ich gerade die dynamischen Felder auslesen kann? Im Idealfall wurde ich das Tool so aufbauen, das es genau das gleiche File erstellt, welches die Standard Export Funkti

I have a document with 2 different options to choose from. Upfront payment, or monthly repayment.I need to know what Javascript to write: If option 1 is selected, then value is "Total Cost", but if Option 2 is selected, then value is "Total Cost / 36"Thanks

I am working on a pdf form of a service report for my team.  All is going well and I am now looking at using some java script to assist me with its operation.On the form are areas for labour, travel and parts costs.  Here’s where it gets a little more complicated:Currently the form auto calculates the values of labour and travel depending on the number of hours selected from a dropdown box multiplied with a predetermined rate (labour or travel). This is fine for a customer who has no service contract.We have three variables: A customer has no contract in which case the above works perfectly.A customer may have a ‘full contract’ in which case they do not pay for any parts, labour or travel. So I need the total boxes to read 0 or ideally “Contract”.A customer may have a ‘support contract’ in which case they do not pay for any labour or travel. So I need the labour and travel total to read “Contract” but any parts prices to still be applicable.I am new to the java script world a

Using Adobe Acrobat Pro,Ok so most things i've been able to figure out myself, including how to name a page etc. This i can not seem to be able to figure out how to do if it's even possible to do...I have created 2 pages that are templates, 1 is a calculator, the other is sales... i would like to be able to get it that when the page spawns from a button that it will spawn with the name of the actually page. so when you click on calculator it will spawn a page with the name calculator, and when it's sales it will say sales... There will only be 1 page of each so there will never be multiply pages of the same thing. The document is limited to 3 pages between the buttons that spawn pages.With i also want to be able to have it that when someone pushes down with mouse on a checkmark that the page for example with the name sales will be deleted automatically. i can't do it by page numbers because sometimes there's only 2 pages, sometimes there's 3 and it depends on the spawn order to with on

Thanks in advance for your help!I have a form that tracks expenses for a six month period and tracks an average for each expense listed. Three months in, you get the average for January, February and March; April, May and June would not be included in the average since there are no values in those fields.The calculations work out pretty well until I try averaging the TOTAL EXPENSES during that same period; for example, the AVERAGE TOTAL January expenses, February expenses and March. It results in a average of all six months, not just the three with data entered.Here is the script for the AVERAGE TOTAL Monthly Expenses:event.value = Avg('ESExpenseMonthly_01_TOT', 'ESExpenseMonthly_02_TOT', 'ESExpenseMonthly_03_TOT', 'ESExpenseMonthly_04_TOT', 'ESExpenseMonthly_05_TOT', 'ESExpenseMonthly_06_TOT');Again, thanks for your help.

I am trying to make a script where once a checkbox is clicked, it take information from two field, then each populates to it's designated area. And if the checkbox is unchecked, it removes that information. So far, I have a script that can take information from one field to another. I posted the code below. if (getField("Box1").value=="Yes") this.getField("profile").value = this.getField("Landmark").value;if (getField("Box1").value=="Off") this.getField("profile").value = "";So how would I attempt this? I posted the code of how I thought it could work below.if (getField("Box1").value=="Yes") this.getField("profile").value = this.getField("Landmark").value;this.getField("main house").value = this.getField("Landmark Price").value;if (getField("Box1").value=="Off") this.getField("profile").value = "";this.getField("main house").value = "";Basically, when the checkbox is checked, I want field "Landmark" to populate to field "profile" as well have field "Landmark Price" populate to field "m

I am having issues with one of my scripts. I have a sequence where I check a box and information from one field goes to another. This scripts does exactly that. But when I unchecked the box, it's supposed to remove the information from the field that was populated. When I do this, I get an error saying "The value entered does not match the format of the field ("main house")", which is the name of the field. Both these fields are formatted into numbers. The only way I can fix this is formatting it to a non-number. I don't get it because it populates just fine when they are formatted to numbers. Only when unchecked to remove the info it does this. Is there anyway to fix the javascript where it will work when the field is formatted to a number? This is what I have for the javascript on the checkbox.if (getField("Box1price").value=="Yes") this.getField("main house").value = this.getField("Landmark Price").value;if (getField("Box1price").value=="Off") this.getField("main house").value = " "

I have a very large form where I have set the border color to red on multiple fields because they are important to check but may not be required. We're talking 100+ Fields some unique and some duplicated. Now that I have finished making the form I am trying to determine the best way to make the red borders show up for users filling in the forms but not print when they print the forms. I was hoping to work out a solution that would change all text fields, radio buttons, check boxes etc to transparent border using the strokeColor property like so from the DC SDK Documentation: for ( var i=0; i < this.numFields; i++) {    var fname = this.getNthFieldName(i);    var f = this.getField(fname);    if ( f.type == "text") f.strokeColor = color.transparent; }However this has not worked on the Document will print event. I was trying to get the bare minimum to work too as worst case scenario I could just get every field with red borders individually

How do I set up the check-boxes to auto-populate fields when checked, then remove the info from the field when unchecked. I am a complete beginner when it comes to javascript. This is what I have soo far based on looking at online forums.Basically the checkbox represents a product. If the person is interested in choosing this product, I want them to click the checkbox so that info goes to the next page for the final form. If they accidentally click the checkbox, I want the information to be removed. if (getField("Box1").value!="Yes")      this.getField("profile").value = this.getField("Landmark").value;if (getField("Box1").value!="No")      this.getField("profile").value = " ".value;I inserted screenshots below. The one checkbox that says "Landmark" is the Landmark Field. The second screenshot, I want that information to go to "Product Name" which is the profile field. I only did this one check box, but plan on having all the selections, in scree

Is there a way to display all the text and what font each text item is in the console with javascript?The text are not fields of any sort. This is a "cover page" with maybe 15 words on it that was created in word and saved as a PDF.I'm using Acrobat Pro DC

Hi,I am currently working on a large form, with a lot of images. Like, A LOT of images (200 give or take). In the form, these image's states of visibility are  changed by a different checkbox with a bit of javascript, and either the images are "hidden" or "hidden but printable". However, when I reset the form,  the images visibility's are not reset. This leaves the whole form so that the checkbox's states and the images visibility's aren't aligned anymore (IE a box will become unchecked after a reset, but because the code on the checkbox doesn't run, the image doesn't switch its state of visibility).I am trying to figure out a fast way to reset all of the image visibility's to "hidden but printable" once the reset button is hit. I am not able to put every name of every image into an array, because of sheer volume (I have several different forms like this.)Does anybody have any ideas?(I have had a few ideas on how to do this but don't know how to execute them)- Attach the same
