Acrobat Pro XI: Creating a form of page multi with repeated fields requiring different input values

Hello.  I am working on a form that has more than 130 areas by page and 16 pages.  The form is a set of report cards for a classroom.  All except two fields per page will have to repeat on each page, but NOT duplicate the input value.  These are individual students names and brands in different areas of the assessment for the 4 quarterly marking periods and the teacher comments (each page of the form is a report card x 16 students the students in the class).  I need to work on platforms (PC and Mac), or I'd do it in Word.  Word and Pages don't play well with the complex layout of the form, so I turned to Acrobat.

I am looking for a way to set up a page and then copy the fields on the following pages, with a suffix or another convention that can quickly be changed per page without frames of hand-label nearly 2400 / form (on top of that, I am doing this for 7 classes).  I read that using the naming convention item.0 allows duplicate fields to select and the +/-key to adjust the suffix without going into the Properties dialog or the area of field to rename, but it does not work for me and I find enough information about the feature to help me with what I'm doing wrong.

If there is a better way to do it, I'm open to all suggestions.  I need help if the script is needed, as I am not a programmer.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Usig the increment/decrement keys +/-, the tail number is no longer a feature available. I believe he was abducted with Acrobat 6, but it may have been 7.

You can use a hidden template page to make their fields on a page and to ensure that the fields are automatically renamed. First create you a blank page, copy a page of the fields on the blank page and make a hidden model. You can then use the template.spawn JavaScript method to add fields to any other page. For more information, see: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.1216.html

I know that this answer is sparse, so if you have any other questions, post again and understand which version of Acrobat you are using.

    Right-click in the PDF file, go to 'Open with' & choose "Adobe Acrobat XI".

    Yes, it can create form fields. It can activate the document reader, but cannot include the use of the digital signature law as Acrobat Pro and will not let you work with JavaScripts at the level of the document.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro / Adobe Reader display glitch (jerky page display)

    Hi, I need help.

    I use Adobe Acrobat Pro 10.0.0 and Adobe Reader 11.0.07 for some time now, but never stopped updating because they have begun to develop strange problems.

    Everytime I open all PDFs, the page is jerky or broken (I don't know how to describe it). The display of page breaks. The menu bar disappears. Also, the title bar disappears. When I press on F9 he returned but then it disappears. I can't do anything on this subject. If I read or scroll or minimize/maximize the problem still persists. I thought that maybe it's the 2D graphic acceleration and I tried turning power, but it has not solved the problem. The page simply breaks in the middle and the menu bar and title bar disappears immediately. It kind of changes back.

    This problem has occurred for a long time and I spent my default to Foxit Reader pdf reader but I wish Adobe back. Everyone please help.

    I run Windows 7, 32-bit Intel i3 and 4 GB of RAM, with a @ 2 GB RAM NVIDIA graphics card.

    Probably, Yes.  Update to version 15.0.2.361 and the issue of the disappearance of the bars/menu toolbars should disappear.

    When I create a pdf file in Acrobat Pro XI and attach it to an email (Outlook 365), the email will not send.  He will sit in the Outbox to always generate an error in the transmission.  When I create a pdf file with another program (for example pdf Complete), he gives and sends fine.  I have Norton 365 and off Scan outgoing emails and disabled the Norton Spam filtering.  This problem started in the last 2 weeks.  Anyone has a solution or have seen this problem?  Thanks in advance.  Curt

  • Can Acrobat Pro XI create pdf 3D CATIA models V5R23 directly?

    We are seen to get Acrobat Pro XI, but don't know if Acrobat Pro XI can create pdf 3D directly from CATIA V5R23 models. We had earlier Acrobat X Pro, which requires an add-on (Tetra4D) in order to create a 3D pdf file. Is it the same with Acrobat Pro XI?

    Never to return. Adobe has made it very clear that they are not and will not be a seller of 3D CAD.

    Adobe have nothing to do with the conversion of model engine - it was initially licensed by a third party, briefly programmed internally and then transferred to third parties such as http://www.tetra4d.com

    If you want something other than a U3D or PRC file included in a PDF file, go buy their software.

  • Acrobat Pro 9 - return of form as a pdf instead of xml?

    I designed

    a form superimposed on a

    existing PDF.

    Everything is going well except when my client cl

    ICKs on the bu to return by email

    tton, he returned to me as an xml

    file, but I want that he returned in pdf format.

    How can I fix?

    You will need to go to the designer (the reason you should ask in the forum of LiveCycle) and check the options in the submit button. I find a bit of a pain to use Designer as they default to a lot of things that I wouldn't use (bad practices such as email), but it's not real clear on how to change. I guess it's just that I'm used to the forms in Acrobat and not have played with Designer enough. In any case, in the designer, check the properties of the submit button. I can verify AA7 in a bit to see what is there.

    In my previous post, I was suggesting to simply live with XML. It is easily imported to the PDF form to give the same result if the form had been sent with fields filled. Can be a lot simpler in the long run.

    More info: I went to Designer 7 and selected block to submit properties. On the field of the object, I selected presentation button, no e-mail or http. This operation adds a tab to submit. On this tab, you have the choice of the type of selection. I guess the Designer 9 is similar. You must set the mailto URL: (do not immerse in the space between the ":" and address) If you want the presentation of e-mail, but be careful with presentation of e-mail as it fails for a lot of people because of their e-mail client Setup program. You will then need to return to Acrobat (I think) and turn on the rights of the player, but activation is to be cautious about using regarding license restrictions.

  • How to create a form on a table with 3 columns for a PK

    Hi all

    We have a table that has 3 columns that make up the primary key and I want to create a form based on this table; Let us on the 'create form Page' it is only 2 options that identifies the first and second columns of PK.

    Is there a way I could add the third column PK.

    Kind regards
    Mel

    Mel:

    I don't think you can use the form wizard to create the form for you in this case. You can create the form manually or modify the table to have a new column that will act as a substitute PK for the table. This column can be filled from a sequence and must have a Unique key limited defined against it.

  • How I can run a purchased Acrobat Pro XI on a new Win 7 laptop with serial number problem?

    Dear Forum

    I have not used this service before, so if all the protocols there please let me know.  I just bought a new laptop Fujitsu and tried to download my Adobe Acrobat Pro XI that I bought for $239.00 in 2013.  When you enter the serial number I am informed that the serial number does not match the product.  I've now had three conversations with the service the customer without result!  They sem believed that what I bought an upgrade to Acrobat Pro XI.  This seems strange to me as the product worked on the old lap top

  • Several Page flowed form with repeating field, causing a blank page

    I have a form 3 of the page with a repeating field on page 1.  I have configured positioned pages like fluid with subforms and everything works fine, until you type a lot of info in the repeating field and it moves everything from page 1 to page 2, the problem appears after the text is moved, there is a big empty space after the text that was moved.  Basically, the rest of the information is moved to page 3, and then there is a 4 page.  Hope it makes sense.

    Original - Page 1, Page 2, Page 3

    Expanded beyond the page - Page 1 & 2 (then big empty space), Page 3, Page 4

    I would like to just the pages flow together so that if the expansion box goes on the next page just sections continue to follow without a huge empty space on page 2.

    It sounds as if your content is set to do not allow page breaks inside it.  Have you checked all forms of sub containing the option below?
