Hi,
Are you working on a document that is stored in a file sharing application (onedrive, dropbox....)? in which case I would download it to my desktop or downloads folder and try again.
If you already have it downloaded I would try moving the file to a location where you are sure you can save files.

Hi,
This probably depends on how the bates numbering was added, are you able to share a sample document so that we can investigate?

Hi,
The only way to realy dupliacte a section (without having a lot of white space) would be to use templates

Hi,
To be clear,
Group 1. Group2. Percentage
5 5 100
5 4 90
4 4 80
as so on?
if that is the case then the attached file shows how this can be done
there is a document javascript called updatePercentage which does all the work
function updatePercentage () {
// change these to the names of the two groups
var groupOne = this.getField("Group1");
var groupTwo = this.getField("Group2");
var groupOneUseValue = 0;
var groupTwoUseValue = 0;
//update the options so they match what you have
if ( groupOne.value == "Choice1") {
groupOneUseValue = 5;
} else if ( groupOne.value == "Choice2"){
groupOneUseValue = 4;
} else if ( groupOne.value == "Choice3"){
groupOneUseValue = 3;
} else if ( groupOne.value == "Choice4"){
groupOneUseValue = 2;
} else {
groupOneUseValue = 1;
}
if ( groupTwo.value == "Choice1") {
groupTwoUseValue = 5;
} else if ( groupTwo.value == "Choice2"){
groupTwoUseValue = 4;
} else if ( groupTwo.value == "Choice3"){
groupTwoUseValue = 3;
} else if ( groupTwo.value == "Choice4"){
groupTwoUseValue = 2;
} else {
groupTwoUseValue = 1;
}
// update this to the field you want to output too.
this.getField("Text2").value = ( groupOneUseValue
+ groupTwoUseValue ) * 10;
}

Hi,
Not quite sure what plus-one everything means, but if you copy and paste the first Initials, then change the participant, you can then have an initials you can copy for Participant_1 and one you cant copy for Participant_2, mabe not a perfect solution, but does enable a kind of toolbox of initials for use in your form.

Hi, I would assume it only has an effect if you are actually editing the content in the file, i.e. it controls how the cursor acts when you type a word.

Hi,
It depends on the document you would be editing
English and a lot of other languages == left to right, top to bottom
Arabic and Hebrew, == right to left, top to bottom
Chinese and Japanese == top to bottom, right to left
That are the ones I know.
Hope this helps

Hi,
I have taken a look at your file, and I am unable to replicate the problem so I cannot provide any help. Although when I edit the field, it is all 1 line, not multi line as you have in your example. I don't know if that would make a difference

Hi,
If you are using Acrobat 9 on a up to date machine then there is probably not a lot we can help with, does it doe this in an up to date Acrobat Reader application, to give some context from the Adobe website
https://helpx.adobe.com/uk/acrobat/kb/end-support-acrobat-8-reader.html
it states:
"As stated in the Adobe Support Lifecycle Policy, Adobe provides five years of product support, starting from the general availability date of Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat. In line with this policy, support for Adobe Reader 9.x and Adobe Acrobat 9.x ended on June 26 2013."

Hi,
When you say browser, do you mean using the "Adobe Acrobat for Chrome" extension, or are you using the inbuilt features of the browser, we can only really help if it is an Adobe Acrobat related issue, if you want to post the form we can check there is nothing specific in the PDF form that may cause this.

Hey,
You might be able to use the embedded viewer to make it harder for someone to download the file but it would require some coding to make it so that the PDF would not have a visible link.

If you decheck this option it will open each PDF in a new window -
And if multiple documents are in the same window, you can grap the tabs and take them out to a new window.

Hi,
Can I check that that is the complete code? if it is then it might be worth adding code in to set all the variables to nothing when you are done with them.
lRet = objAcroAVDoc.Open(PDFPath, "")
lRet = objAcroApp.Show
Set objAcroPDDoc = objAcroAVDoc.GetPDDoc()
Set jso = objAcroPDDoc.GetJSObject
pageNum = objAcroPDDoc.GetNumPages()
For i = 0 To pageNum - 1
wordNum = jso.getPageNumWords(i)
For j = 0 To wordNum - 1
wordStr = jso.getPageNthWord(i, j, False)
If wordStr = MyFindWord Then
' Do some processing
end if
set wordString = Nothing
next
set wordNum = Nothing
next
set pageNum = Nothing
Acrobat and Excel don't seem to handle their objects very well, so you may just be running out of memory.

Hi,
First point of note, this is not Adobe support, this is other users/programmers/coders/enthusiasts that help out for free and provide the best information we have and to the best of our abilities.
Adobe Acrobat Reader on desktop and the Reader in the ipad are two very different products, you can create a plug-in for the Adobe Acrobat Reader but then you need to get it allowed to be installed an run in Adobe Reader and you will need to contact Adobe support for that, and I am sure that it costs to be able to do this. For the iPad as far as I am aware this is not available at the moment.
this link may help - https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-sdk-discussions/starting-point-of-acrobat-reader-plugin-development/td-p/12973815

Hi,
If the text box is actually a comment then you would need to select the comment panel which should then show the tools to change the formatting of the comment.
The formatting tools are then shown along the top of the window (in my set up anyway)
