Unwanted Zero(e)s are appearing in Field Text Boxes that I have Used the Calculate/Sum of + feature

Hello,I am preparing a form for our shipping department and I have it set up to calculate taxes, palletizing, etc and give a total.  At first, it was giving me numbers with a bunch of decimal places like $37.555555557778 so I set the format to number and 2 decimals.  It also makes an unwanted zero appear in that space even though no data has been entered yet.  How can I fix this?  I want my calculations to remain the same and for the numbers to only display 2 decimal places but I don't want the zero there because we sometimes have to fill out the form manually.  I have very little experience with java script, I read up on some things but they do not make any sense to me.  If there is a flat out formula you know that I can just copy and paste to the custom format box that achieves this, please just let me know.  I greatly appreciate any help and thank you for your time.

PDDocDeletePages causing blank page that is "in use" to appear

I am running the code below to attempt to remove a page I created and added a legend to. It gets no error. I created a test file that only had one page and a legend. If I step in the debugger, I see the scroll bar change as if there is no second page and then change back. the second page is now a blank page and does not have the legend content. The bookmark is gone. If I attempt to delete the pag in the UI, I get an error indicating the page is in use. If I save and close thfile, then reopen it, I still get an error saying the page is in use if I try to delete it in the UI. void RemoveLegendBookmark(PDDoc pdDoc){DURING// We make top-level bookmarks only, so add a new bookmark to the rootPDBookmark bmRoot, bmNode;bmRoot = PDDocGetBookmarkRoot(pdDoc);if (PDBookmarkHasChildren(bmRoot)){bmNode = PDBookmarkGetByTitle(bmRoot, pOptions->LegendBookmarkTitle.c_str(), pOptions->LegendBookmarkTitle.length(), -1);if(PDBookmarkIsValid(bmNode)){// get the action for the current bookmarkPD

getPageNthWord combines pairs of words instead of reporting each word individually

When using getPageNthWord to obtain words in a PDF, every sentence that is wrapped causes the wrapped pair of words to be concatenated.  for example assume wrap at the 7 6 CFR 210.5(c), 7CFR There should be 6 words obtained6 CFR 210.5 c 7 CFR instead only 5 worrds are obtained6 CFR 210.5 c 7CFRThe 7 is concatanated to the CFR which is incorrect and makes searching fail if I am searching for "7 CFR". I assume this is a bug in the SDK for the javscript example I am usingobject[] getPageNthWordParam = { p, i }; word = (String)T.InvokeMember( "getPageNthWord", BindingFlags.InvokeMethod | BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Instance, null, jsObj, getPageNthWordParam); If indeed this is a bug, where can I report it?Is there a work around such as disabling sentence wraping?Another way to read individual words other than getPageNthWord? I can not use my program and it is a lot easier to convert PDF to DOCX and not even use Acrobat

Confirmation Checkboxes

I am currently designing a form in Acrobat Pro with Javascript providing the required functionality. The form has 7 pages with two hidden as templates. I have two paired checkboxes Competent and Not Yet Competent (NYC). When the NYC checkbox is selected I want the twp hidden template pages to appear but I also want to alert the person that by selecting the NYC the pages will appear and do they wish to proceed. If they select 'Yes' then the checkbox will be ticked and pages will appear. If they select 'No' then the checkbox will not be ticked and the pages will not appear.I am using the follow script: event.target.checkThisBox(0, app.alert("By selecting this checkbox the Re-assessment pages at the bottom of this document will appear for re-assessment purposes. To remove the Re-assessment pages select the Competent or Satisfactory checkbox to the left.\n\nCheck this box?",2,2)==2); this.getTemplate("Page6").spawn(5); this.getTemplate("Page7").spawn(6); My issue i

Same radio buttons (groups) on two pages

Two-pages PDF with forms: for the most part the same - first page for company, second for client. Contains the same forms (differences just on top, marked as copy for client or for company + some extra frames on companys copy).In Acrobat Pro DC i made and copied the forms from the first page to the second, so they have same names, and after filling them on first page, same forms are automatically filled on second too (as intended).OK for text fields and check boxes. Problem just with radio buttons - changes in them are not copied to second page. And when radio button is checked on second page, radio buttons in same group on first page will be unchecked.For now, i deleted copied radio buttons on second page (3 groups with 2 to 4 radiobuttons) and created new ones (with new names). They can by filled independently (changes on one page will not mark/unmark radios on other page). Better, but not perfect solution.Is it possible to make radio-buttons work same as text and check boxes? So, wh

I am trying to follow instruction here - https://developer.adobe.com/document-services/docs/overview/2.2.0/pdf-extract-api/quickstarts/ to test pdf extract, and as indicated below, there should be private.key no matter it is personalized download or non personalized, i tried both and both downloads don't have private.key! where and how should i get it?=================== AuthenticationOnce you complete the Getting Credentials, you will receive a zip file with content whose structure varies based on whether you opted to download personalized code samples. The zip file structures are as follows:Personalized Download: The samples download.zip contains a private.key file and an adobe-dc-pdfservices-sdk-python-samples directory. Each sample directory contains the sample code as well as a preconfigured pdfservices-api-credentials.json file.Non Personalized Download: The samples download zip contains the private.key file and unconfigured pdfservices-api-credentials.json file.
