Creating a dropdown menu for address book.
Copy link to clipboard
Copied
Dear Community Members,
I want to create a form via Adobe Acrobat DC so I can select a name via a dropdown to fill in the address information. This is the template for a letter, so that I can easily select the correct organization as the addressee. Can anyone help me with the best way to do this?
In a way I guess I wanna know if it's possible to give the dropdown item a name, where the visible information placed in the document is much more that just that single name?
I hope you guys could help me.
Thanks in advance.

Read these two article:

Both contain example very close to what you want to do.
You should also consider more advanced data handling techniques for this type of application

Use the Acrobat JavaScript Reference early and often
