Date displayed incorrectly

[Neha Niphadkar]

I have a pdf which gets populated by a power automate flow. The date field when the contract is generated is formatted like so

When the contract is generated, the month in the date field always appears to be '0'

When I click on the field, it appears to be correct. Its just being displayed incorrectly.

Power automate formula to populate the field is

convertTimeZone(utcnow(),'UTC','Eastern Standard Time','MM-dd-yyyy')

You need to change this part:

MM-dd-yyyy'

of the Power automate formula to all in lower case:

'mm-dd-yyyy'

In order to express UTC conventions correctly in Acrobat JavaScript, a few considerations must be followed.

For example, month, days, year, hours, minutes, seconds, to include ante-meridian (am), post-meridian acronyms when using a 12 hour clock time format instead of a 24 hour military clock time format, you'll notice that in Acrobat JavaScript the expression "MM" is used to declare minutes, not a month.

That is why the formula is throwing that incorrect format.
