I have a form with 3 buttons:1. a button to check to see that all dropdown fields are not default value (also set to visible, but does not print)2. a Save button, which does 2 things (first, make all fields "read-only" and secondly open the "Save As" menu item (set to visible, but do not print)3. a button to clear "reset" form (set to visible, but does not print)My issue is, when I was testing the read-only javascript code, I saved the form, yes I realize not the same as printing, however, when I opened the saved form, all fields were set to read-only, as I wanted, but I also noticed that button #1 was not showing, which I thought was strange, but then I went though all of the properties of each button, but each buttons properties for display purposes were the exact same.So why would that first button not show when being saved, but the other two did?

Hi - I've created a PDF Form with Acrobat. I'm automatically filling the form fields with data from a SmartSheet.  I have some fields that I need to change the background fill color of depending on the content of the field, once filled. For instance, if the field value is "Green", I would want to change the background fill color of the field to Green, etc. Would this be a Custom Format Script? It seems like it would be. Can someone provide some assistance on what this code would look like?  This is my first crack at using Javascript in Acrobat, so a bit lost.  Here is my first attempt:var status = this.getField("Risk/Issue 1 - Status Color");if (status.value = "Green")status.fillColor = color.green But that results in the following error:InvalidSetError: Set not possible, invalid or unknown.Field.value:2:Field Risk/Issue 1 - Status Color:Format I seem to be stuck at the starting gate. Any assistance is appreciated. Tony

Hi everyone!  I am trying to figure out how to copy a PDF document with multiple different watermarks. I have Adobe Acrobat pro. I found a code online (copied below), but when I enter this, the code only produces a 'COPY OF THE INITIAL FILE' and 'Doc COPY 01' but it does not create the additional watermarked files. Additionally, one line is appears at the bottom of the javascript code saying 'undefined'. If anybody has any suggestions, that would be hugely appreciated. Code: // ———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— // ———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— // ———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— // // C R E A T E C O P I E S O F A P D F W I T H U N I Q U E W A T E R M A R K S // // // This script prompts the user to select a PDF // file and makes copies

Hello, Sorry I am new at this, and still attempting to get my head around java code! I currently have a submit button that sends the form to an address with a ccd address, subject line and email body. I was wondering if I can change what is written in the body of the text depending if a check box has been ticked or not? 

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.

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.

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

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
