Hi there,

 

I am pasting in javascipt 662 lines of code and I keep getting the message above. Does anyone know a workaround for this as I really need to have all the javascript entered. 

 

Any help greatly appreciated.

 

Steve

What application did you use? With some of them you have to close the application entirely for the script to update and Acrobat to become responsive once more.


Save and Quitting the application works.

1. You can split the code in several parts.

2. You can use an external editor (Preferences : JavaScript), for Mac the best one is BBEdit.

The 2nd option ensures this will never happen again.
