In PDF form, Java script for inserting dynamic stamp "Received" or "Approved" along with default author, date etc..

I have created a PDF Form button, when the button is clicked, the "Received" stamp from Dynamic stamp annotation to be inserted in the particular position. Please, let me know the java script for this action.

Hi, when i use "this.selectedAnnots[0].AP" it shows that it is undefined.

Thanks

Make sure you select an applied stamp comment (using the mouse) before running this code.

You need to find out the AP value of that stamp and then you'll be able to do it using the addAnnot method of the Doc object.

It's exactly the same thing... Use the same method you use for the standard stamps for the dynamic ones.

I like to apply a stamp to a file and then select it and run this code from the JS console to find out its AP value:

this.selectedAnnots[0].AP

Edit: fixed the code
