DC Forms, copying a form label and its data from Adobe
Hi. I've searched through and not found my exact issue. Some are close.
I have what will be a "complicated" form (at least for me). Here's what I need to do:
* Have a "cost calculation" section where staff calculate the costs associated with their travel (hotel, meals, transportation, etc.). These are all calculated fields (number of nights X cost of hotel, etc.) This step, I'm fine with.
* Summarize that data into the several lines that will grab data from the caclulations above. (For instance, the meals section will add together the # of breakfasts X the cost of breakfast PLUS the # of dinners X the cost of dinner.) This step I'm fine with.
* Then, I need another bureau to be able to COPY that summary (Lodging/Meals/Transportation/Total) out of Adobe into an application they work with. This is where I am having trouble.
When I copy the summary out, I only get the words, not the data that has been entered. The data has to be pulled field by field.
Below is a SIMPLE mock-up for the purposes of seeing what I'm seeing. If the fields are completed as follows (the dollar amounts are calculated):
Meals: $100
Lodging: $280
Transportation: $200
Total: $580
Now, if I do a copy/paste, all that shows up is:
Meals:
Lodging:
Transportation:
Total:
If I need the dollar amounts, those have to be individually copies...
Is there a way to create a summary that can be copied as ONE grab?
