Questions

I am new to Adobe Acrobat Pro DC. I want to do several things.Firstly, convert a text string to proper (title) case.Secondly I want to have a field duplicate the value entered into another field.Thirdly I want to calculate the age of a person based on their date of birth and a given date (not based on today's date).

I created an Excel VBA script to create a table that is in the same format as a fillable tax spreadsheet. I would like to copy the cells from Excel to the fillable tax spreadsheet, but when I try to manually paste the Excel table into the Adobe PDF, it pastes into one cell instead of all the cells. How can I fix this? I have attached the fillable pdf and my Excel data. I would like to paste the Excel table into the large table on the second page of the pdf. Eventually, I would like to script this in VBA, but I want to know how to do it manually first. Thank you.

I created a form with check boxes. When I uncheck the box, I am unable to recheck the box. How do I format check boxes so that a box can be rechecked after it has been unchecked?

I have an email submit button on my form, I  have auto filled the subject line and body of the email, I was wondering if there is a way to change the font size/ color of the text in the email body? Here is my current script: this.mailDoc({cTo: "Email Address", cSubject: this.getField("Text Field").valueAsString, cMsg: "Email body text "})

HiI am struggling to round down decimel numbers in fields to prevent the default to round up - ie: if I have 4 decimel places: 0.0000 and I type in 0.34567 - I need the field to round down the nearest decimel point: 0.3456 rather than the default of rounding up to 0.3457.  Is there a way I can do this in acrobat?

Hello, Apologies for the stupid quiestion! Im very new at this! I have a peice of code that will let the user know that required text fields have not been filled in. the code is as follows: if(this.getField("Text Field 1").value == ""){app.alert("must be filled in");}else if (this.getField("Text Field 2").value == ""){app.alert("must be filled in");}else{this.mailDoc({cTo: "Email Address", cSubject: this.getField("Text Field 1").valueAsString})}; This works except it will not allow for an input of zero. This is fine on Text Field 1 as it should always be submitted as a 6 digit number, however on Text Field 2 it can be zero I have tried setting as a numerical text field although this did not work

I have a client that has requested a fillable pdf be both password protected against editing non-form items but will also flatten the forms on save (I currently have that function as a button fyi). I know the usual security settings causes flattenPages() to fail. Are there any alternatives I can run with javascript to achieve a similar result?Push come to shove, I'd also settle for a method that locks editing without offering the option to enter a password at all. I'm trying to keep the pdf as friendly as possible for potentially computer-illiterate end users, so special saving methods to flatten the form are out.Any tips are greatly appreciated! I don't usually use pdfs for anything other than sending artwork to printers, I'm a bit new to all of this.

Hello.I am currently making a PDF form for warranty issues on machines. I have 3 drop down boxes that autofill other text boxes with pre determined text. i would like to store the dropdown choice (name only) in another field so that you can see what warranty has aleady been done, is there anyway of doing this? Sorry i am quite new  to this so apologies in advance!Thanks

Hi all,This is a fairly straight forward question, I've done a load of research into it with nothing concrete on why, or how to fix the problem.So, I'm creating an interactive PDF doc, and I'm using 'buttons' to create roll-over states that reveal an image when the cursor rolls over a certain element. (I have attached the doc in question to show what I mean). This seems to work, however on my machine the roll-over effect seems to flicker in and out as you move the cursor. It does not hold where it should. I have tried testing out on another laptop (a windows machine this time) and it still has the same problem.Is there something I am doing wrong in terms of structuring the buttons etc...?Thanks so much for your help!Lisletest.pdf - Google Drive

I have RIKLA certificate for x32 Reader plug-in and signin with it new build for x64 bit plugin failed to start in Reader. Should I request new certificate for the same but x64 plug-in? 

Came across a bit an unusual situation using Acrobat DC - I'm trying to edit a PDF with text fields to fill out a form using Fill & Sign.Note: It's just a plain PDF, no Acrobat/other form fields highlighted.When I fill things out in English (or Japanese or Chinese or most languages) the text fields save correctly.But when I try to fill out something in Thai, the text fields disappears right after I close the Fill & Sign.Spent an hour with Adobe chat support but didn't get anywhere. My best guess is it has something to do with Thai font licensing issues.Has anyone come across a similar issue with other languages/fonts before? Is there a way to get around this?Thanks,Aaron

Does my version of Adobe Acrobat 9 Bate stamp documents?

Hello everyone. I have installed Active Directory Certificate Services, with the web component.I have deployed the CA certificate to the machines and i can effectively see the certificate in mmc being trusted.I create a user certificate with MMC and sign digitally a PDF with acrobat reader DC. However acrobat complains that it can't check if the certificate has been revoked, with the following error:Error when downloading the CRL list Location: ldap:///CN=MY_CA_NAME,CN=SERVER_NAME,CN=CDP,CN=Public%20Key%20Services,CN=Services,CN=Configuration,DC=MY_DOMAIN,DC=com?certificateRevocationList?base?objectClass=cRLDistributionPoint  Cannot connect to server.However, on the same machine when using certutil -url with that complete ldap url, here's what i get:I click the "recover" button with the CDP option checked (it's the default) and i do get both the base CRL and difference without errors. I do get a warning that says that the certificates or CRL have not been thoroughly checked becau

Hello dear Adobe Support Community,at the moment I'm working on a VB.NET project where I can merge several pdf-files to one pdf-file.I'm using the Acrobat Library to accomplish this.Now I have a problem with pdf-files which have security protections like read-only for example. Of course, this files can't be merged with the other files.The idea is to have a For-Loop which checks every single pdf-file and returns an error message if the file is read-only.My code looks something like this:Dim appAcrobat As Acrobat.AcroApp Dim apddSummary As Acrobat.AcroPDDoc ' This contains all single pdf-files in the end.' Dim apddSingle As Acrobat.AcroPDDoc ' This contains a single pdf-file.' Dim iNumPages As Integer Dim iNumPagesSub As Integer ' At this point he should check the files. ' apddSummary.Open(Cstr(Me.ListBox1.Items(0))) For Each strFound as String in Me.ListBox1.Items If Me.ListBox1.Items.IndexOf(strFound) > 0 Then iNumPages = apddSummary.GetNumPages() apddSingle.Open(st

This is my first post and I'm just starting out so please excuse my lack of knowledge. I can't figure out how to place a check mark in one of two fields automatically based on a calculated value compared to a range value. Any help is highly appreciated!

Hello, Java Script novice here. I've seen a few posts with this same question, but haven't quite gotten it to work yet. I have some fillable forms in which I would like an amount to populate in the corresponding text box when checked, but would like it to remain blank when unchecked. I would also like to have a total populate at the bottom depending on which boxes are checked, to be added to a base price. I was able to get it to populate the amount once it was checked, but then if I unchecked the box, the amount would stay in the field. I'm a complete beginner, so if I could be able to cut and paste a script that would really help. I have included one of the forms as a reference. Thank you in advance for any help you can give.

I referenced the Javascript documentation and tried using a Net.HTTP.request. The documentation only shows an example of how to do an MKCOL request, not a GET request.If I hard-code the cURL value, I get the value "undefined". If I try passing it through a variable (as in the example below), I get the error "Invalid Arguments".My code looks something like this:foo = app.trustedFunction(function (cURL) {    app.beginPriv();    var params = {       cVerb: "GET",       cURL: cURL,       oHandler: {            response: function (msg, uri, e) {                var stream = msg;                var string = "";          &nbs

Hello,  I am working on a proof of concept to be able to send a PDF to a web service,  I am running into a roadblock as to what it is sending and how the Web Service should be receiving the data.I read conflicting documents as to what Adobe sends.   Some say it is SOAP, some say HTTP, some say you need LifeCycle, some say you don't.  I have what I think is a valid Web Service(ASP.NET & C#) but after several attempts and variations the button returns an error in Adobe and no actions seem to be performed(I am trying to get it to write the file to the Server).  I've done web services in the past, but this is the first one I am doing where the sender is really a "black box" as to what it sends.I have basically been beating my head against the wall for a couple of days and I am really looking for an example(or even at this point a small snipit) of what the code I need for the C# side of the Web Service to accept the request.  Any links to additional so

I need to merge two .pdf files, one after the other; both have the same name, I would like this operation to be done automatically as we are talking about 4000 files, unfortunately I have no programming experience I would like to find an easy way or for someone to tell me in detail how to do it .. thank you very much

Hi there! Am trying to use the "Custom Calculation Script" to calculate a percentage off a final sale for the "Amount Due" field. For example, if the total is $100 and I grant 25% off, I want the Amount Due to show as that. 

Hi,I'm trying to make a PDF reader with Excel - VBA. But, i'm having some troubles finding "Adobe Acrobat 10.0 Type Library".I have Acrobat Reader DC installed in my machine.There is no way to get another reader, since this one is my company's standard and i'm not sure if this library is right for my reader.Ty!

Hey there everyone! I'm just stretching my coder wings in regards to javascript.I've been diving deep into custom PDFs and Calculations. What I'm trying to accomplish seems simple; but I can't find the resources anywhere to help me resolve the problem. Most likely it's because I don't get know how to ask the right question.What I'm trying to accomplish is to set up a Calculation where if a checkbox is activated (checked) then it Subtracts 1 from a specified Text (number) field elsewhere on the page. If I can get one checkbox working then I can implement the technique elsewhere and on future projects. The project I'm working on may seem frivolous, but it's a very valuable and practical learning activity for me. I'm currently making a custom Character Sheet for a Tabletop RPG. I have all the other fields functioning precisely as desired; but they're all simple addition or cloning of values from other text fields. So here's the situation:I have 12 check boxes; they represent dam
