Hello dear friends,

I have a task to calculate the percentage of fields in Adobe Acrobat PDF form containing status "Done".

There are following statuses:"Done", "Open", "Feedback". So I need to calculate the percentage of the  fields that will be filled with status "Done". The names of fields are "Status1", "Status2", .... "Status15".

I need to write customized Javascript and to be honest I am zero there. Can anyone help me with this ?

You can use something like this as the field's custom calculation script (set the field's Format to Percentage with the desired number of decimals):

 

var doneCounter = 0;
for (var i=1; i<=15; i++) {
	if (this.getField("Status"+i).valueAsString=="Done")
		doneCounter++;
}
event.value = (doneCounter/15);
