[Javascript] How to reformat comboboxes & checkboxes

New Here ,
Aug 26, 2024 Aug 26, 2024

Hello,
I am absolutely new to javascript, so I am still trying to read up on how to do this (or if it's possible), but I have a fillable PDF and I need to change the properties on all the checkboxes and textboxes so that any character can be typed in each box (yes, text in the checkboxes).

 

For the text/comboboxes I was manually changing the properties to "None" under Format. 

For the checkboxes I was taking a screenshot of the textbox size and position properties then I would delete the checkbox and create a text box with the same size and position data manually.

It occurred to me that there may be a more sophisticated javascript solution, however, I hadn't found a similar question answered on the forums.

 

Any information to get me set in the right direction is appreciated! Thank you.

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.
