Adding fillable field in the middle of a sentence

New Here ,
Jul 13, 2023 Jul 13, 2023

Is there a way for my to add a fillable field into an Acrobat PDF and have the text wrap around it?

 

Right now I have an sentence that says:

"Between [Client of Record] and..."

And I would love to have the client of record field be form fillable and then the rest of the sentence will expand and warp around whatever I write in the field.

 

I haven't been able to find anything that suggests I can do that yet.

No. If you want it to work like that then the entire text needs to be one large field. You can then populate it using a script that combines the static part with the dynamic value from another field, so that the text wraps around nicely.

Thank you for the answer, would you be able to give me an example of the script?

You can use something like this as the combined text field's custom calculation script:

 

var name = this.getField("Client of Record").valueAsString;
event.value = "Between " + name + " and...";
