New Here ,
May 10, 2022 May 10, 2022

Hello 

I'm looking to do a click counter of sorts. I need to count multiple things on a pdf and it would he nice if when I highlighted it would start a count. Or a custom stamp also would help. 

 

Thank you

You can only count clicks that trigger an event of some sort, such as clicking a button.

The counter can be saved into a (hidden) text field, or even as a metadata property, but if the user doesn't save the file when they close it, that information will be lost...

To implement a click counter in Adobe Acrobat, you can use JavaScript to track clicks on specific areas or annotations within the PDF. One approach is to create custom stamps with embedded JavaScript that increments a counter each time the stamp is applied. Alternatively, you can use form fields with actions that trigger JavaScript to update counters when specific areas are clicked. For detailed guidance, visit Adobe's scripting documentation or explore third-party plugins designed for advanced PDF interactions.  https://countingtools.com/click-counter/
