Printing text field names on mapped PDF

  • January 11, 2024

Is there a way to print all of the text field names on a mapped form?  I have a form that a previous employee created and I need to recreate it on a slightly different updated version, but going through every field and matching to the javascripts and bouncing to my other screen is getting tiresome...if I had a way to print the text field names it would be awesome. 

 

i did use the Use JavaScript tool to pull the All javascript strings, which tells me what named text field it belongs to, but it would be so much easier if i could match that to a printed document that had those text field names on it.

 

Any help would be appreciated!

You should try the Form Report plugin, which is part of the free abracadabraTools :

Try this:

Replace the pages of the form with the pages of the updated document.

Would that work if there are some slight differences between the two forms, i.e. the new form has some new fields.

 

Would replacing the old page with the new still retain the field mappings?
