Use Identity Preferences in Dynamic stamps

[Marinus236317636wdt]

I tried to create Dynamic stamps for different departments and Jobtitles.

Does someone know which Javascripts are available for creating these stamps.

I already have managed to create the user name and date,

but I have to know the scripts for "Department", "Title" and "Organisation"

Thanks for your input.

You only have access to these identity properties (copy and paste from the API documentation): 

corporation

email

loginName

name

https://opensource.adobe.com/dc-acrobat-sdk-docs/acrobatsdk/html2015/index.html#t=Acro12_MasterBook%...

Hi,

You can get all properties typing in the console:

for (var i in identity) console.println("identity."+i+": "+identity[i]);

That's when you get into undocumented waters... Adobe can change these items that are not in the API documentation any time they want, without having to tell you.

Thanks all for your help.

I managed to get the diffenrent Javascript fields into my Dynamic stamps.

At the moment I'm still figuring out to get the checkboxes working.

You need a dialog box if you want to indicate either the checkboxes are checked or unchecked.

Take a look at Thom's article at https://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/dynamic_stamp_secrets/ to see how dynamic stamps will work with custom dialogs. Once you understand that, take a look at this page from the API documentation, it describes how to create such a dialog: https://opensource.adobe.com/dc-acrobat-sdk-docs/acrobatsdk/html2015/index.html#t=Acro12_MasterBook%... 

I would recommend to get the samples working, this way you can play around with the code to see what the different options do. This is pretty complex stuff, so be prepared to climb a steep learning curve. If you need help, Thom's site pdfscripting.com has a lot of resources, it does however require a subscription.

I can help you if you can share your stamp as it is at the moment. That shouldn't take me too long time!

Hi,

Without any answers from you and as I have to be away for a few days, here is an example with a "basic" dialog box, but it is possible to improve it and add some input fields (for example "Department", "Title" and "Organisation").

I let you test the attached stamp.

If you have any question I will answer asap I am back.

Yes, it is. Read the documentation of the Dialog object (under the execDialog method of the app object).

Hello,

Your stamp (scanned) is working fine with the checkboxes. Thank you for that.

I tried to copy some things from your stamp, but it didn't work.

All my Dynamic Fields are working in my stamp (attached) but I could not make the check boxes working.

Are you willing to help me once in this case, it would be much appreciated.

Regards 

Marinus

Hello again,

Is it possible for you to remove the specific Stork stamps from the community site in order to avoid other people using these.

I already downloaded the 2 stamps.

Thanks again,

Marinus

[Marinus236317636wdt]

Hello,

They are removed initially, but pop-up again afeter leaving the site and new log-in.

Thanks

You've posted this information in a public forum, so it should not be a big surprise that the information remains accessible to the public. Next time, please think twice before posting information you do not want to remain public in such a public forum. 

The public nature of this forum is for the benefit of others. When you are trying to solve a problem, the forum provides a knowledge repository that oftentimes helps you to find solutions. By removing valueable information, you are denying others the benefit of that information. The experts in this forum are providing this service for free - we are not getting paid - and only (at least in my case) because of the public nature of this forum, hoping that what I do today to help somebody will help ten more people down the road. 

I've removed the one remaining instance of the stamp file and the image of your stamp. 

[Marinus236317636wdt]

Thanks for your reply and I understand the policy.

I wasn't aware that my stamps with names etc. would be visible, therefore my question.

Thanks again for your help.
