Questions

I've recently started using the SDK with the interapplication communication documentation to work with PDF files through VBA (in this case, VBA through Excel). Presently, I've been able to successfully write code that finds text on a page, sets the correct rectangle bounds around that text, and then crops the PDF to that area. However, when trying to use the Javascript "SaveAs" method, it doesn't work properly. My line of code reads:JSO.SaveAs wbpath & "\IAR YtD.png", "com.adobe.acrobat.png"Where "JSO" is the name of my Javascript Object and "wbpath" is the string variable containing the path of the excel workbook I'm working with. The result from using it changes based on if I try to export a Jpg or a Png. As a png, it returns a "write error" saying there isn't enough disc space (when there is plenty). As a jpg, it completely crashes the entire Adobe Acrobat application. What do I need to do to make saving the PDF file as an image work through VBA?

In a single pdf having >100 fields with the same dropdowns, would it work to put the dropdown in a DOC-level script and  call it from each field? The choices are the same for each field. An example would be very helpful.

 I don't see a property that sets transparency or a background color, but not positive that a form XObject is transparent by default (or always). Working on transparency of image inside of it and want to make sure I am not getting confused by form obscuring background when I think it is the image. 

I am trying to get one of the sample plugins working on Windows 11 using Visual Studio 2022. The BasicPlugin compiles OK, but when I copy the dll into the Acrobat plugins folder, the plugin fails to load. I made no modifications to the code. Any suggestions as to what the issue could be or where I can look to see what the problem is? CheersPete

I have a PDEImage that I assign to a PDEImage with the simple call:PDEImageSetSMask(pdeImage, pdeImageMask);and then I get an error in Acrobat that says something is wrong and the page may not display correctly and the image does not show. Don't do the assignment and it is fine. But I can change my code so that I use the image mask I ceate as the image and that displays fine; it is a grayscale rendering of the same image. So it is a valid PDImage but I assume it must not meet some special requirement to be a mask. I am having trouble finding any concise information on image masks. Is there somewhere it is documented. It's another case where I am using a working sample as the basis for my code. As mentioned, my own experiemnt of just using the generated mask as teh image demonstrates that it is a properly formed PDImage. but something makes it fail when used a s a mask.

On the attached form there is some wierd rounding issues occuring that I can't figure out. Line 7 and 8 are both numbers to two decimal places.  Line 9 uses the following formula:var a = this.getField("A").value;var b = this.getField("B").value;if (a !=="" || b !==""){event.value = b-a;} else {event.value ="";} value of a is 5,112,068.82value of b is 5,184,600.47 For some reason line 9 calculates to 72531.64999999944.I am having the same issues with line 10.  Can someone please take a look and help me out? I attached the PDF for reference.

 Hello,I posted on Acrobat forum. But it may be better here. I created a PDF form using InDesign with a submit button. The button doesn't work when uploaded onto the website. Link is below. https://madinaacademy.org.uk/images/downloads/document1.pdf Also, when the form is downloaded, the submit button disappears. If you hover over the area where the button is, the pointer changes to a hand but still the button doesn't work.  See image below.

Hello I am new to using Adobe products instead of receiving them from agencies for signature. I have been approached to retype PDFs to Word documents from overseas.  Do you think they really asking me to convert PDFs to Word?   I have downloaded Adobe Acrobat but wanted to know if I need any other APPs to complete the process?  I have not received the docs yet but wanted to be ahead.  Any tips?

When a document is OCR'd, Acrobat DC places paragraphs -- or what appears to be paragraphs -- in each own bounding box. This "feature" prevents me from copying several paragraphs or pages to paste in another application (i.e., email message).  This is not an issue in Acrobat X. Screenshots below.Is there a way in Acrobat DC to convert scanned page to editable text without bounding boxes or remove the bounding boxes?Acrobat DC - unable to select beyond bounding boxAcrobat X - able to select multiple paragraphs

Hi,I create documents in Indesign and then export to PDF to be placed on the web, but I've been experiencing problems with documents the past week or so; specifically, if I create a document that is A4 landscape, Chrome only displays the first page, it will not scroll. Bizarrely, if I rotate the page it 'reveals' the rest of the document, and then allows me to scroll through it.I have tried various page sizes and orientations and oddly this ONLY affects A4 landscape.The PDF's display fine in all other browsers.To eliminate issues, the same problem occurs when I create a PDF from MS Word (so it's not an Indesign issue)and I DON'T have a problem when I create a PDF using a different PDF maker (so not a Chrome issue)When I inspect the code for a troublesome PDF, I see there's a div id called "sizer" which is only recognising the size of the first page, and not the whole document as it does on PDFs which scroll correctly.When I change the size within the div tag, the scrollbar appears, but

Hey guys! I have a query. I have 2 dates and a text box calclating working days excluding sat and sun. Everything is working well unless i enter start date as sat or sun, the calculation then starts adding that sat or sun also. Example: (format: mm/dd/yyyy) Begin date: 04/09/2023(sunday) - End Date: 04/17/2023(monday) so W.Days should be 6 excluding the start date sunday but unfortunately I'm getting 7 days. Same problem is occuring when i enter start and end date as sat and sun then the entire calculation is messing up. I'm attaching the file and I'm not good with js, please if anyone can help me with the script 

I have a Military CAC that I am trying to use to sign a PDF document with.  I created the document and have tried multiple signature fields.  I have my CAC connected via an ActivCard reader and my computer is correctly reading the card.  I have verified that the certificate is present in the computer and that Adobe Acrobat Pro can see the certificate.  I am not given the option to sign with the card.  Am I missing something?   Thanks, Alex

Question: How can I programmatically set Initial View settings while running a VBA macro?Background: I'm working on an Excel tool that includes manipulating PDFs. I'm not an experienced programmer, but I've been able to figure out how to do the following via VBA:Create bookmarksSet document properties, e.g., Title, Author, Subject, etc.I also found code that allows me to call JavaScript code with VBA, which I'm using to run a script (by Thom Parker) to clean up bookmarks. For reference, here's the VBA I'm using to call Javascript: If avdoc.Open(File, "") Then '//write JS-Code on a variable Ex = " // Put JavaScript Code here... '//Execute JS-Code AForm.Fields.ExecuteThisJavaScript Ex MsgBox ("Done") End If Additional Details:It looks like I'm not able to do this with JavaScript, but is this correct? If I can set standard doc properties metadata, it seems to me that I ought to be able to set the Initial View settings??I read that I'm not able to run an Action program

Does Acrobat DC have the ability to Imposition pages into printer spreads?I'm creating a 4-page brochure in InDesign. Each page has a full bleed (.125"). Using InDesign's Export to PDF function, I can have it print Spreads, which marries p2 to p3 (removing the bleeds between them), but it leaves p1 and p4 isolated.Can I use Acrobat DC to marry p1 to p4 and remove the bleeds between their common edge?
