I'm a total beginner, so please excuse the question...

I need to add a page between every other page in a document.  Someone wrote a script for it which I can purchase.  I've been trying to find where to put the script in order to run--I've managed to open the java dashboard but I pasted the script and can't get it to run.

 

Can someone please explain or point me to a link that has instructions for how to run a script that is already written but needs to be placed in the document somewhere...

Thanks.  Stephen

If you purchased script, doesn't it come with instructions, or can't you ask the seller about it?

If you use JavaScript console, paste script into it, then select entire script and press ENTER.

You can try creating button field → select 'Prepare form' tool → right click button field and select 'Properties' → go to 'Actions' tab → where it says 'select trigger' select 'Mouse UP' and from 'select action' select 'Run a JavaScript' → click on 'add' and paste your script there, click ok to close window, now exit properties and close 'Prepare form' tool, now when you click on button it should run script. If it doesn't work, share your script with us or even your file if possible.
