Questions

Hey Everyone, I have data in a flask API that I want users to load into their custom pdf forms. My problem is finding documentation on how to approach this.  My idea is that I have the user run javascript from the pdf (hit a button); have them enter a # in an app.alert window and then use the entered # for a HTTP GET request to flask which will then show the data.  Which is where my problems start on how to best set this up, I've found the following code on the forums here which I hoped to utilize. var url:String = "wwvv. URL GOES HERE/Script?number=007"; var importer:URLLoader = new URLLoader(new URLRequest(url)); importer.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onFileLoaded); function onFileLoaded(e:Event):void { var importer:URLLoader = e.target as URLImporter; var importedVersionText:String = importer.data; dataImported_txt.text=loadedVersionText; } My questions boils down to the following:What is the best (data-)format to hand fielddata to a

Hello,I am reaching to see whether OCR processing of PDF documents using Adobe PDF services SDK is done on your on-prem servers ? If yes, is there a way to have that processing done locally where an Application is running? I do not want to share sensitive pdf documents in a remtoe fashion. Thank you,shree 

Exiting implementaion C# code Type.GetTypeFromProgID("AcroExch.AVDoc") !== null , means the Adobe Acrobat is installed. But after the latest Adobe 64 bit reader installation, the above condition is true for Adobe Reader itself. So how we can detect which Adobe(Reader or Acrobat) is installed. Enviirment Details Windows 10 64bit os Adobe Acrobat Reader DC (64bit)

Acrobat PDFMaker has found inconsistencies in the database. Please make sure there are no blank records or email fields in the database. What can I do to fix this issue? There are no blank records in my database but I need the email address field to send the PDF documents. Any help would be great. Thx

I have a template that spawns x number of times based on a value of a field on the form. The spawn is set to happen when the files is saved. My issue is that when the form is first completed and created it is being done in Netsuite and as fasr as I know there is no way to trigger that script while this process is happening. What the user is currently doing is letting Netsuite fill the pdf and then they download the form, change any field in the form and then revert that field to what it was before so that the save option is avaialble and then saves the form so the spawn is triggered.  My goal is to bypass having the user manipulate a field so that the save option is available and the spawn is triggered. Any ideas on how I can achieve this?

I am creating a fillable form which includes a dropdown list. The two options are "Vacant" or "Occupied". I want to be able to count the number of "Vacant" entries in a separate field. The dropdowns are named "dropdown.10" through "dropdown.31". I have tried scripts from a number of different answers to similar questions with no success. I attached two images as a reference and I can provide more information if needed. Thanks.

After using the applyRedactions function from the api, the function leaves over these Vector Objects. Is there a way to remove them with more scripting? I guess one solution is to make layers and then delete the Vector Objects layer... Is there a way to automate that?  All I wanted to do was remove any text at the footer for all pages using js. Thanks  Additional info:Script I used I copypasta'd from hereHere's what I mean by Vector Images left by redacting

Hi does anyone know how make Java script work on Acrobat mobile app for showing and hiding fields when a check box is selected? var nHide = event.target.isBoxChecked(0)?display.visible:display.hidden; this.getField("platinum").display = nHide; this.getField("platinum_price").display = nHide; this.getField("audio_plat").display = nHide; This completely works on desktop but when testing on Acrobat app, its not working. Please let me know how to solve this.  Thanks! 

I've created a "drawdown sheet" that tracks reoccurring payments/invoicing on a PO.  I can't do it as a spreadsheet because it attaches to the pertinat PO which is a PDF.  A drawdown will have the starting balance (the amount for which the PO is written) and show the running balance as each weekly billing is paid.  I've attached a screen shot of the form and the issue.  The calculation is a simple subtraction from the previous balance but the issue is that the formula is performed down the sheet.  I tried to do an if,then statement:  If "2amount" is > 0 then "1balance" - "2amount", if else then leave "$0.00". Obviously that isn't Javascript but that is my problem - I don't spreak Javascript.  I scoured the web to find a solution and selfmedicate but it wasn't in the cards for me.  I even watched tutorials on basic javascript related to Acrobat but nothing stuck.  HELP!! 

Very new to this so appreciate the assistance! My form  has three subtotal fields COREPOINTSMGMTPOINTSC_MPOINTS If the MGMT POINTS field is 0, would like the C_M field to be 0. If the MGMT POINTS field has a value, would like the C_M field to reflect COREPOINTS + MGMTPOINTS. Thank you!   

Several years ago I developed some solutions using FDF to populate a PDF form, I'm trying to locate the content on your site as the following links no longer work and a search does not find them : https://partners.adobe.com/asn/developer/acrosdk/forms.htmlhttp://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/pdfs/acr4formssysnotes.pdfhttp://partners.adobe.com/asn/developer/acrosdk/docs/fdftk/FDFtkovr.pdfhttp://partners.adobe.com/asn/developer/pdfs/tn/5186AcroJS.pdfhttp://partners.adobe.com/asn/developer/acrosdk/docs/filefmtspecs/PDFReference.pdf does anyone have updated links for these ? The original article can be found at https://greggriffiths.org/webdev/serverside/asp/asp_fdf/. The partners.adobe.com links all also give the following error : Not FoundThe requested URL /libs/granite/core/content/login.html was not found on this server.

Does anyone know what happened to the old FDF Toolkit? Or where a copy might be found?    

I refer to the count-checkboxes code mentioned here.I use Option-Fields instead to make only one activated checkbox valid.How do I change the code to "read" all option-fields?var nSum = 0;var aCkFlds = this.getField("checkn").getArray();for(var i=0;i<aCkFlds.length;i++){if(aCkFlds[i].isBoxChecked(0))nSum++;}event.value = nSum; 

Help with radio buttons. I need to calculate a specific button in a given group/row.I have a form with radio buttons. I've roughly set the radio buttons in for now. I need to have each column total Random, Informal, Formal and Dynamic. So only one radio button selected from each horizontal row 1, 2a, 2b etc.I'm guessing it has something to do with scripting which I'm not very familiar with.

The folowing code periodically returns nothing for the JSObject for some files and for others returns the object needed. When I open the PDF files directly (i.e. not through code), the Javascript tool shows the Debugger, Document Javascripts, All Javascripts, and other buttons as selectable. If the same file is opened using the code, and the file displayed (i.e. AcroExch.App.Show), the same buttons are greyed out and the JavaScript button within the Preferences Menu (Edit --> Preferences) does not show up. But, again, it's only for a subset of files that are opened using the programatic interface. The files themselves are NOT read-only, I've checked Access Levels and have even input command line code to ensure that all local users have full control over the file (Call Shell("cmd.exe /C """ & returnFileName & """ /e /p Everyone:f", vbHide)). Additionally, not to overstate, when I open the file directly (from within Adobe Pro), the JavaScript functionality is available to me.

I have Acrobat Professional version 8.3.1 installed/licensed on PC and laptop and I want to upgrade to Windows 10.  On Acrobat, the option to deactivate the license is available but when I have used that before, it would not reactivate without long hours on chat with Adobe.Has anyone upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10 without de-activation issues with Acrobat 8.3.1?On a Google search, others who have upgraded to Windows 10 have had nothing but trouble dealing with Adobe after their Acrobat 8 pro license deactivated and they were not able to reactivate without long hours on chat with some remote Adobe admin person.  They were first told that Acrobat is not compatible with windows 10, but after finally getting a new activation from Adobe, Acrobat 8.3 worked just fine as it did with Windows 7.  Thanks,  Jim

Hi Is it possible to create pdf from c# code. If you can you please help? Thanks

I'm trying to replicate the attached excel sheet as a PDF and I'm stuck on the meal calculations. Essentially, if someone departs after 12pm, they only get a half day of meal coverage. I have assigned the hour, minutes, and am/pm number values in order to get a value that the formula can compare. In excel, it's the following:IF (D9=J9, 0, IF (G9 > 0.5, 1, 0)) [this is in the Q column. my comparison value would be 12 the way I programmed it]IF (D9=J9), 0 IF (M9 < 0.499998, 1, 0)) [this is in the Q column. my comparison value would be 11.99998 the way I programmed it] D9=DepartureDateJ9=ReturnDateG9=SumD [sum of the three dropdown departure times]M9=SumR [sum of the three dropdown return times] This is the script I put in custom calc:var DepartureDate = this.getField("DepartureDate").valueAsString;if (DepartureDate == "Return Date") event.value = 0;else if (this.getField ("SumD") > 12) event.value = 1; Both excel and PDF are attached. Any help appreciate

Sorry new to Java Script and hoping someone can help me. I have three specific check boxes if any one or combination of those three boxes are check I want textfield1 to have a black background. If all text boxes are unchecked I want textfield2 to have a black backgound. Currently the background colors for both of those fields are set to none. 

Basically, I have a form for logging mileage.  Currently, drivers manually enter their starting mileage for the month into a "Starting mileage" field, and then daily ending mileage into a column. The form autopopulates the largest number in the column into another field labeled "ending mileage for the month".   I would like to set up the form, so that if someone puts 15 miles at their starting mileage, and then 10 miles as their ending mileage, they get an error saying that their ending mileage cannot be smaller than their starting mileage. I would also like it to pull from the "Starting miles" field that is manually entered for the first day of use, so they can't put something smaller than the number they entered before. Something like this: Day 1: 10 Day 2: 35 Day 3: 5 <- error saying that their ending mileage cannot be lower than the starting mileage

I have radio buttons check box's  Choice1 and Choice2  When the user checks Choice 1 I need for field Destination to hide  When user checks Choice 2 I need for PORT and FOREIGN to hideI also need to use the reset button to return them to original document. 

I have Adobe Acrobat Standard DC installed core version 18.2304. I'm using Visual Studio 2017 and using Visual Basic. I'm trying to create a code to mark a pdf drawing as a draft. I'm starting from the example on one of Adobe's iac developers's guide example thinking that would be a good place to start. I tried out the code that starts on page 23. It didn't work, and I've narrowed the problem to the JSObject. I can use methods from pdDoc to get the correct filename for the PDF, so I think all is working up to that point. The jso object also isn't nothing, so it enders the if statement, but the jso object doesn't have any of the methods used by the pdf example available, so it throws me an error when I try annot = jso.AddAnnot. I have the below references added to the project. Anyone have any idea what the issue might be?
