Is there a way to have a master file to make edits. This would allow me to edit one document without having to go into each individual form and make the same changes. So the master form would be link to the other forms.

Hi.

You can have one master text file (.txt or .js) containing all the JavaScripts used in your forms.

So, you edit once and just have to copy-paste many.

I do this for some clients which have a set of similar forms.

All scripts are embeded as functions in a document level script, and fields, calculations, validations, etc. only call functions.

Some functions are useless in some forms, but I have only one master .js file to edit.

No, that's not possible with PDF files.
