opening webpages through adobe pro

[owkoepfw231]

Hello

Since we are unable to create GS1 datamatrix in adobe itself I was trying to see if i could bring it from an external location.

I know you can open a URL through the following javascript, app.launchURL("https://barcode.tec-it.com/en/DataMatrix?data=(01)03453120000011(17)120508(10)ABCD1234(410)950110102...",true).

This will generate a DataMatrix barcode, and I can always change the data by modifying the command to

barcodedata = this.getField("barcode").valueAsString;

app.launchURL("https://barcode.tec-it.com/en/DataMatrix?data ="+barcodedata);

But now is there a way for it to automatically click the download button on the webpage once the page has been loaded.

Also, some online barcode generators do not change the url when data is inputted in the text field.For instance, (https://www.online-qrcode-generator.com/gs1datamatrix) So is it possible to populate those text fields with values from the adobe form and then download the generated barcode.

Then i would be able to import the downloaded image into my adobe form as an icon.

Please advise,

Thanks

Adobe is a software company or a building material. What do you mean by "Adobe" ?

Acrobat Pro and Acrobat Standard can create Datamatrix barcodes, but Acrobat Reader cannot.

Hello JR

thanks for your reply.

I should have been a more clear as mentioned in the subject I am referring to Adobe Pro.

And yes I understand that with Adobe Pro you can create Datamatrix barcodes but I was looking to generate GS1 DataMatrix. If you have any tips on how I could encode/structure my barcode data so it generates as GS1 Datamatrix that would be a lifesaver! I have tried putting Application Identifiers but to no sucsess.

Thanks

There is still no "Adobe Pro" software…

Sorry, I don't know the difference between GS1 and other Datamatrix.

Apologies for the confusion, I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro

Is there a way to click a button on a webpage after it loads up by running a javascript in adobe acrobat pro?
