Does anyone know the regular expression syntax used in the SearchRedactPatterns.xml file for pattern searching?

I am creating a medical referral form and would like some advice. My form has an area in which the service being authorized is to be selected via checkboxes. The user can select either Screening Mammogram OR Diagnostic Mammogram AND/OR Ultrasound (Screening must stand alone but Diagnostic can be bundled with Ultrasound if necessary). I’m using a Document JavaScript to control this, where the Screening box is automatically deselected if the user selects Diagnostic and/or Ultrasound (or vice versa). These three categories each also have three choices (bilateral, left, or right) and those are all controlled in the same JavaScript to allow the same OR-AND/OR configuration. Each group of three sub-choices have the same checkbox name, so that only one of the three can be selected (i.e. you cannot check both bilateral and right). Everything is working as intended up to this point, but now I’m stuck. I need the price we are authorizing to appear in a text box, pricing varies based on the check

I have created a digital pdf of a document that must be digitally signed. I need to run a javascript on the signatures. It worked yesterday. But now I cannot get the popup to show me an "OK" box to approve the javascript I have pasted in.

My client wants the ghost text to be light grey and centred, while the enter data to the black and left aligned.I understand how to  enter the default text and change the colour for the two but not alignment.Here what I have// On Focus script:if (event.target.value==event.target.defaultValue) {    event.target.value = "";    event.target.textColor = color.black;    event.target.alignment = 0}// On Blur script:if (event.target.value=="") {    event.target.value = event.target.defaultValue;    event.target.textColor = color.ltGray;    event.target.alignment = 1}

I want to give a lower and upper limit to the (PDF) file size that can be uploaded into a PDF form field. How can I achieve the same?

I'm creating a form for work and I'm trying to reduce back and forth questions between clients. The form I am creating has the user input their birth date in (Field A). I already used the following script to automatically calculate the age and put it in (Field B):event.value = "";var dobValue = getField("dob").value;if (dobValue!="") {var dob = util.scand("mm/dd/yyyy", dobValue);var today = new Date();// compute age in millisecondsvar age = today.getTime() - dob.getTime();// convert age to years ( millsec in sec * sec in min * min in hrs * hrs in day * days in year)// truncate to whole years and adjust for binary floating point errorevent.value = Math.floor( age / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24 * 365.2425) - 0.005);}I'm trying to get (Field C) to show after (Field B) reaches every five years at the following values: 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45 and every year 50. It is important that the field only shows on the zero/five years, but remain hidden when the value is one through four and six through nine.

I have a 28x14 grid of form fields that are named "Hour.1.1" where the first digit is the row number and the second is the column number.  I have managed to figure out how to sum across the columns using a document level function and a custom calculation script, but I can't figure out how to tweak it to sum across rows.  The code that works to sum across columns is below.  Please help!!!// document level functionfunction SumH(cParent){var nSum = 0;var oParent = this.getField(cParent);var aParent = oParent.getArray();for(var i = 0; i < aParent.length; i++){nSum += Number(aParent.value);}return nSum;} // end SumH function// end document level script// Custom Calculate script// use document level functionvar sum = SumH("Hour.1");// field value is blank unless sum greater than zeroif (sum === 0) { event.value = ""; } else { event.value = sum; }

I need to duplicate contenet into new page when I click on button "ADD";

I made a custom stamp that I have been using for a while, it has 7 inputs to type in and with pop up boxes.  My issue is that I have never had it working properly and every time I go near the stamp button the popups for data entry appear before I can choose the stamp.  It gets really frustrating.I have looked for many hours online but I can't exactly work out which part of the code I'm getting wrong.  I worked out that I needed to get the stamp name from the code (which I've done) but I don't know how to meld the event.source.forReal code with my code!  I also had the javascript calculations seperate for all the boxes with inputs but I've seen that its supposed to work much better if you only have one script.My attempt at adding the code together is at the bottom.  If anybody can help me out and let me know where I've gone wrong I would greatly appreciate it.Regards Jeremyif (event.source.forReal && event.source.stampName=="#lyvn1KW9WUYWKxxaJXcLDA") {e

Hi,I'm looking to make two matching sets of radio buttons. That is:Set 1: yes/noSet 2:yes/noThat autofill each other so they always match (both ways, so you can change either set and the other will change as well). I've done the auto matching with checkboxes before, but those don't give mutually exclusive options. How do I capture both functionalities?Thanks in advance!

I am working on a form that contains a drop down box (titled Rep) for the user to choose their rep from.  When the rep is chosen, another field (titled RepEmail) is supposed to populate with the appropriate email address.When you press submit, the form will be emailed as a PDF attachment to the email address that generated.I have had this work on two occasions.  The first time it worked the first three times I tried it.  When attempting to show someone how it will work, it didn't do anything.I reworked every field and calculation again and it worked.  This time I was able to choose different names in the drop down and the email changed appropriately.  I pressed submit form and it popped up the email with the right email address and attachment.I attempted to show someone... and it stopped.You can choose a name in the drop down, but nothing generates anywhere else.I know the JavaScripts are right since they did work once... why would they stop?I have the cloud Ad

Hello,I have no javascript experience at all; however, I learned by searching on the internet that I need to create a Custom Calculation Script on my .pdf form to get it to do what I want. I researched and attempted it myself and was unsuccessful.I have four fields created that are named:NumofCriteriaMetTotalNumofCriteriaPercentofCriteriaMetCPRatingScoreCurrently, I have a simplified field notation (division) in the PercentofCriteriaMet as follows: NumofCriteriaMet/TotalNumofCriteriaand it is working.What I am trying to do is take the number auto-populated from PercentofCriteriaMet and assign a value based on the range below and have the value auto-populated in CPRatingScore0.0 to 0.59 = 00.60 - 0.89 = 10.90 - 1.00 = 2Also, I don't know if it makes a difference, but I currently have the PercentofCriteriaMet and CPRatingScore field set to "read only"If anyone can assist in helping me create a working Custom calculation script, it would be much appreciated.Shelly

Is there a good way to spellcheck and check grammar of a large batch of PDFs? I'm using the latest Acrobat CC. If there are reliable scripts or third party tools for this sort of thing that would be of interest too.

Last week, before updating to the most recent Adobe Acrobat, company drawings were printed on 11x17 paper.  After uploading the newest version of Adobe Acrobat, those same documents now print on 81/2 x 11 paper.  How do I get the program to print on what is correctly needed, whether it be either size paper?

I have a form with required checkboxes highlighted in red.I have successfully added javascript to remove this border from my text fields once filled in, by running a custom validation script, but this script does not work for checkboxes. Can anyone help me with a script to simply remove the red border of a checkbox, once checked? I am new to javascript, so a script and location would be wonderful. Thanks in advance.

I'm using Acrobat DC Pro.I am trying to show or hide a field based on the calculated total that appears in a field named NVCA Raw Score. The calculated field has possible numbers of 0 - 7. If the calculated field displays number 0 - 4, I want to hide the FLAGGED field. If the calculated fields displays numbers 5, 6, or 7, I want the hidden field to display. I've tried my best to cobble some JavaScript together from other scripts using < >, but the hidden field never displays. I've learned a lot from this group, but still need help every once in a while. Any help will be very appreciated.var nResult = this.getField("NVCA Raw Score").value; if ( nResult >= 4 ) { this.getField("FLAGGED").display = display.visible; } else if ( nResult <= 4 ) { this.getField("FLAGGED").display = display.hidden; } Many thanks,Charliecharlie6067

I'm creating a form that will use pull down menus with basic choices to start. I will have the box checked to let the user enter custom text. Is there a way to have that custom entry automatically add itself to the existing pull down menu items so that it is available as an additional choice to the user the next time they fill that field out?
