Use Space instead of Decimals

[anmols74082189]

Hi,

I want to use space instead decimal as a separator without affecting its calculation.
For Example, 10,590.24 should be 10,590 24

Thanks

Hi Anmols,

Sorry for the delay in response.

You may try: Once you place a field on the form>Field properties>Format tab, from the drop-down "Select format category" and choose the predefined ones or choose custom. https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/pdf-form-field-properties.html#format_tab_for_form_field_prope...

Let us know if that helps.

I, too, am looking to use a space instead of a decimal point in all dollar amount fields on a form.  The predefined options in Format > Number do not have this option.  How would I code to do this?

Example:

User types:                                              Display as:

    Line 1:  165.25                                          165 25

    Line 2:  64.98                                            64 98

    Line 3 auto-calculate Line 1 minus Line 2 and display as:    100 27

I have the calculation part working fine, it's just changing the decimal point to a space without it affecting the calculations that I need help with.  My forms have a hard-coded decimal point on them and the two decimal points (one on the form and one in the data field) are causing problems in processing.  Changing the form to remove the hard-coded decimal point is not an option at this time.  I've tried to line up the decimal points and cannot get it exact for all users.
