This is what I wanted:

When user input a number in a "field", i.e "temperature", then a degree symbol will be added automatically above the number. Is it possible in a fillable PDF form? Thanks in advance!

Yes, you should use the custom format so only the displayed value shows the symbol.

// custom format to add degree symbol to custom field foamt;

if(event.value != "")

{

event.value = event.value + "\u00b0"; //

}

Hi,

Thanks so much for your reply. Could you please elaborate your answer as I am not good in these codes. If I have a field named "T", what should be the code and where should I put it in? TIA
