I have been reading up on this quite a lot and have found ones that give answers but I am still quite confused on exactly how to accomplish this. Even with the answers given I am still not sure where to even start. I am reletively new to working with acrobat and using java with it.  I am trying to make an action button lock the text fields in the document and then save it in the alotted location and have the name "xyz.date". I found the way to lock the fields in the document and that is working well, but I am really struggling to understand how to get the file to save somewhere on its own.  Any step by step of exactly how to do this would be much appreciated! Thank you!

Every document I run the script, the height changes to 35 cm and the width remains the same.For example:I have a document size 10 width by 21 height, I want to change the height to 35.The media size, not the crop size.another example:Document size 15 width by 20 height, I want to change the height to 35. The script will be inside the menu in Acrobat.

Hi there, I have found many replies to this kind of issue but none helped me so far.  So here is what i work with and what i did so far. I have a form of 1 page (intropage). To this 1st page can be added 3 different templates.  - interior checkup-exterior checkup- final page (for signatures, annotations etc) I have added 3 buttons on each template with javascripts to "add" the page model, when needed.The javascript looks like this: this.insertPages({nPage:this.numPages-1, cPath:"MODELNAME.pdf"});  The "Modelname" is for showcase here, I use the specific file name of the int/ext/final page. Depending of the situation, I need my first page and, for this example, 4 interior check templates and 3 exterior check templates -  and of ourse the final side for signing.  Actually my page numbering is scripted in a text field (custom calculation) as follows :  var pnum = this.pageNum+1;var numpag = this.numPagesevent.value

I recently purchased Adobe Acrobat Pro DC ( Order Number: 12152877759 ) for MAC. I followed the steps to download the program.

Hello: I have a script such as this:    var dialogComm01 = {   initialize: function(dialog) {   dialog.load({"comm":this.strComm});   dialog.load({"rd1": true});   this.ServArea = true;   dialog.enable({      "rd1" : this.ServArea,      "rd2" : this.ServArea,      "rd3" : this.ServArea, The first radio button "rd1" is the default.  I would like to set the default via a variable or global variable instead which might be rd2 or rd3 etc. such as like this:    var dialogComm01 = {   initialize: function(dialog) {   dialog.load({"comm":this.strComm});   dialog.load({global.defSA: true});   this.ServArea = true;   dialog.enable({      "rd1" : this.ServArea,      "rd2" : this.ServArea,      "rd3" : this.ServArea, But it does not fly.  Any direction wou

I would like help with the following please:  Radio button group 'Soort' existing of options 'New' and 'Damaged'.When 'Damaged' is selected, 4 checkboxes appear: 'VZ', 'AZ', 'BZ', 'PZ'.When for instance 'VZ' is selected, checkboxes 'V1', 'V2', and 'V3' appear, each containing a different value. Same for 'AZ' ('A1', 'A2', ...) and the other ones.'Total' is the field for the result of the calculation, based on the input. When 'New' is selected the calculated value of 'Total' must be overwritten with value '795', otherwise the values of 'V1', 'V2', 'V3', 'A1', 'A2', and so on must be added up to 'Total'. I currently have place this script to the 'Total' field (tab Calculate, alternate calulated script), but keep getting errors when 'Damaged' is selected (possibly because the underlying options are not selected yet?): var soort = this.getField("Soort").valueAsString; if (soort=="New") { event.value = "795"; } else if (soort=="Damaged"){ var v1=this.getField("V1").v

I am working on a script which both resizes pdfs and adds notations.  I'm running into problems with regards to the origin point.  Even if I can assume that the origin initially coincides with the MediaBox (and that is not always the case with the files I'm working with), the resizing I need to do requires me to adjust the MediaBox.  Once I do that, I'm unsure as to how to obtain the origin point in order to properly place my notations.  Is there a way to reset the origin within javascript?  If not, is there a way to return coordinate values of the existing origin as they relate to the page boxes?

Hello All,    I am working on a timesheet that has In/Out In/Out and am having NaN errors with my code.

Hello Everyone, I want to create a site for attorneys and users who does a lot of legal paperwork. It saves their common information in database - think of first name, last name, address, license number etc. Thereafter, any form that needs such information will be auto-populated. Here's on such form:https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/forms/g-28.pdf  Seems like all such government forms are protected with owner password. Can someone please shade light on how can I achieve this goal? Thank you!Pratik

Hi, I have a PDF containing multiple report cards, and each student's report card is bookmarked. Some report cards have an even number of pages, and some are odd. That and the number of pages vary depending on how much was written on the report card and the student's grade level, therefore it is not a set number of pages. I would like to insert a blank page after each report card that ends on an odd number of pages, so that the entire PDF can be printed double-sided. These PDFs are generated from our Student Information System. The SIS Tech Support is not giving me a solution to do this directly from the system, therefore I am trying with Adobe Acrobat Pro DC. I am not familiar with Javascript. I have found how to add an action to "Execute Javascript", but I do not know how to write the proper code to do this, if it's possible. I have found codes to add pages at the end of odd docs, but not the end of bookmarked sections. Does anyone have any suggestions? Pleas

I want to calculate the future date from todays date plus x number of days. Never having used Java Script before what steps do I follow to incorporate the calculation into the PDF Document. When I attach the PDF Document to an email I don't want the field to be updated for the recipient but remain effectively at the original date. It represents the expiry date on a Membership Card and we don't want it to change each time the recipients opens the attachment.

We are placing static stamps on several pdf files and I would like to automate this. I am looking into javascript and trying to figure out how to set up a code. I would like a code to take a stamp named "Draft" and place it 50 mm from bottom and 50 mm from right. I have tried to use add watermark and use the stamp as source file (and apply to multiple files) but it is not as easy to move the watermark, if necessary (for example if it is placed over something else). If the source file is added as a stamp and then the stamp is placed on the drawing it is much easier to just grab and move the stamp around.

I often need to revise a PDF form that already has form fields on it. First I open the form. When I click "Prepare Form" in Acrobat DC, Acrobat first wants to know which PDF I want to use. When I choose the PDF I currently have open, it then tries to detect form fields, and finally I'm able to edit the PDF form.Is there a command that I can choose, like "Edit PDF Form" so I don't have to go through multiple steps and choices before I can edit the PDF form I have opened in Acrobat?
