Custom Scripts in Text Field Properties on PDF Forms

New Here ,
Mar 16, 2023 Mar 16, 2023

Hello, I have a form that has custom scripts, such as 'CS_PDF_V(event);' in the 'Run custom validation script:' in the 'Validate' tab. Where can I find that sctual script? I would like to use it in other areas on this form but cannot locate the javascript(s) that are used in this form. They must be somewhere. Is there a way to 'unhide' these scripts?

 

Sincerely,

Catherine

There's no access to the doc-level scripts through the UI of Acrobat Standard, only Pro.

They just upgraded me to the PRO version. Now I see the scripts that were hidden. Thanks so much for your help.
