How do I transform a pdf into a quiz

Hi,

I recently used teachermade app to transform a PDF file into a quiz. 

I would like to mark some questions on an existing PDF with the corresponding answers. Then the student can simply open the PDF, select the answers (either dropdown/ yes-no/ multiple choice etc) and at then end have a score generated. 

 

Is this possible in adobe acrobat?

Thank you

Yes, it's possible. You just need to add form fields with consistent names and export values, and then you would be able to use a script to automatically calculate the score.

Thank you for your prompt reply. Can this be done in the free version of acrobat reader DC or is another version required?

 

Also, how do you make the scripts?

Thank you.

No, you must use the full Acrobat to do it.

 

We can help you with the scripts, once you have the form fields set up.

If the fields are named consistently, like Q1, Q2, etc. then it's just a question of comparing their values to an array of correct answers and keeping a tally of how many match.
