Acrobat - email populate? app message?

Report · Nov 04, 2020

Hello, please see attached pdf file. What I am trying to do is be able to "copy and paste" page 2 of 2 to include the paragraph AND text fields entered by the user in page 1 (page 2 makes it read only). I plan to copy and paste it into an email which will then be sent out - unless the copy and paste feature can be cut out all together and simply have the entire text in page 2 be emailed. Hope this makes sense? and thank you all for your help!

The text on that page is not even real text. It's just an image.

You will need to hard code all of it into your script. Something like this:

var msgBody = "Good morning " + this.getField("name3").valueAsString + ",\n\nThis is a paragraph...";

this.mailDoc({cTo: "ezloves2smile@server.com", cMsg: msgBody})

++Edited link I made a mistake in the PDF, is corrected now

Here's the original file with the email field and button added with that script above:

If that is the case, then most likely yuo want to create multi-line textfield and make it read-only.

And use the same script modified slightly as a custom calculation script in the multi-line textfield like this:

event.value = "Good morning " + this.getField("name3").valueAsString + ",\n\nThis is a paragraph that will continue. Add date here " + this.getField("date3").valueAsString +" and as it continues it will go on, enter identifying number of individual here "+ this.getField("identity3").valueAsString+" and finally enter the time here "+  this.getField("time3").valueAsString+" .";

The slide below shows the end result which can then be copied and pasted in an email draft:

Is this what you're asking?
