Hi Newbie here. I have made a file (with Acrobat DC forms). This file shoud be sent to a worker (on his mobile phone or tablet that has Adobe DC installed). To dokument the job, I want him to take a photo and place it inn the file, and after he signs the form I want this to be returned to my email adress

The users ar both iphone and android mobiles with free acrobat DC. Can I use a button with javscript like " event.target.buttonImportIcon();", this script works on PC with adobe reader but not on iphone or android. Is there a javascpript for ios and android for this?​

That script will work with PDF Expert on iOS, but nothing else that I'm aware of. Definitely not with any of Adobe's mobile PDF viewers.

Hi will PDF Expert be able to taka a photo inside a form?


When the button that has the buttonImportIcon script attached is pressed, the user will be prompted to take a picture (or select one from the camera roll) and the picture will appear as the button's icon.

What type of mobile device is he using? That sort of thing won't work with any Adobe PDF viewers, but it can work with PDF Expert on iOS.
