Adding a countdown timer to PDF form

[first.officer]

Hi all,

I've a need to add a countdown timer to a PDF from created using DC Pro, and have found one example by Thom Parker, which is very nice - but sadly doesn't work on an iPad - any way around this that anyone knows of? guessing its all down to the way both at an app level, and also the iOS level, as to how the JavaScript is handled?.

It's not very likely to be possible on an iPad, since the applications on

it have very limited support of JavaScript in PDF files.

Your best bet is to try an app called PDF Expert by Readdle. It's not free,

but offers the best JS compatibility. If it doesn't work there, it's not

likely to work anywhere.

Hi g,

Many thanks for that - and yes, suspected that to be the case - I tried it already in Fluix (Enterprise version of PDF Expert) and sadly its not supported, real shame but guess that's how it is sometimes lol.

Thanks for reply.
