Add a date of expiry to a document - Acrobat Pro

I want to add an expiration of my document IE 12 months from when it was created.  I recently got Acrobat X Pro on my computer and the don't know how to do this now.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

In Adobe Acrobat 8, it has been possible through the addition of JavaScript by clicking t he Advanced menu > Javascript document > Change CheckDoc

Then we could open the JavaScript and put the end date, as below

Thank you!

Although you can still do it in Acrobat X Pro (component tools > Javascript > Document Javascripts) it is just an illusion. If a user turns off JS (which many do, for safety reasons) the script will not do anything. On most Non-Adobe PDF software it won't work at all, and even if they do not trigger the script, they can ignore it.

The "correct way" to set a future date on a PDF document is to use digital, such as via Adobe LiveCycle Rights Management.

  • Import data from Excel in PDF with Acrobat Pro XI - is it possible? How?

    I need to be able to create a pdf file where certain information can be merged to an Excel spreadsheet in the pdf file so that our land use specialists can use tablets to fill the field. I also need to be able to create a field where the user can join or import a jpg file. Is it possible to do this with Acrobat Pro XI? Another program is necessary. I need to know the answers to my questions by January 28, 2016.

    Hi shannonr80675036,

    Yes, but you there are two things you need to do in Excel for this to work:

    Columns must be named the same as the field names in the PDF form. The names that you use in your PDF form, or you must change the names of fields in the PDF form so that they correspond to the column names in Excel, you can either match. In this example, I took the first approach and used the field names as my column headings:

    When you export your data to Excel file, you must select the "Tab Delimited Text" format. It is one of the export options in Excel (and other spread sheet applications) which is available when you select file > save as:

    Once you have your tabs-delimited text file, open your PDF form, and then select Tools > forms > more form Options and click Import:

    In the file dialog box, select this option to import a text file, browse to your exported text file and select it. In the next screen, you can then choose what import record, you can import only one record at a time:

    This will complete the PDF form with the selected values:

    That, for each record you have in your Excel file and save the PDF file under a new name.

  • Moving between the keyboard shortcut Documents: Acrobat Pro DC

    Since the update to version 2015.009.20069 of Acrobat Pro DC on Mac Pro (end of 2013), I am unable to use any keyboard shortcut to navigate between open documents. Before the most recent update to Acrobat Pro DC, it was possible to navigate between documents open by using the keyboard shortcut. So, what has changed with the keyboard shortcut?

    Paul

    Hi Paul,.

    Correct me if I'm wrong but I think you want to open several documents (e.g. 3) in acrobat and then switch between them (i.e. the document 1 document 2 and so on).

    Since version 2015.009.20069, several documents are open as tabs instead of Windows of Acrobat.

    You can use Ctrl + Tab to switch to the next tab and Ctrl + Shift + Tab to switch to the previous tab.

    Thank you

  • Question of document Acrobat Pro XI conversion:

    I bought Acrobat Pro XI.  I scanned a document in a book and created a JPEG Image.  I have used XI of Acrobat Pro to make this Image JPEG to PDF.  I then try to modify the PDF into a WORD document.  Whenever I have some difficulties with the WORD document, errors or in other words, may not be a copy of the PDF file. I wonder why I have these errors.   Perhaps 2007 Word is too old to work correctly, or my scan image is not good enough.  Please notify.  Thank you.

    Good to know - when we scan a text on paper still have the scanner output to TIFF.  Use Acrobat to TIFF to PDF.

    Creation of JPEG via scanner almost always involves use of lossy compression really pipes of power of the image support OCR detailing.

    This is important when there is a desire / need to export PDF content to Word.

    Suggestion: Use Acrobat ClearScan OCR as it is more favourable to the inevitable "touch-ups" of characters / words that want to carry out.

    With a proper workflow, you can get a viable export.

    DO not expect to do the cleaning of the Word file created.

    Don't forget - when booting with output of scan as 'source' you have the pig ears; You can't have a scholarship of the silk.

  • How to add pages to documents Acrobat Pro XI?

    I need to know how to insert new pages in an Acrobat PDF file of XI.  I am trying to add additional pages of a certain form of a document; every page should have different data, he concluded.

    When I click on the button insert of Pages from another file (Ctrl-Shift-I), I invited me to make a copy of the document, and then add pages to copy.  When pages are added, the program automatically fills with the same data.  If I try to change the data on one page, those changes are reflected in all other pages.  This is unacceptable and I need to know how to solve this problem.

    Change the names of the fields. All the fields with the same name get the same value.

  • Assign a language of document in Acrobat Pro XI and store in Adobe Reader XI

    Hello

    I'm having a problem with Acrobat Pro XI and XI of Adobe Reader. This happens when you assign a language of document to a PDF, Acrobat Pro XI file.

    Whenever I attribute to a language of document in Acrobat Pro XI (I do this by setting the language of the document in the Advanced tab of the file properties dialog box [file > properties]) and open the document in Adobe Reader XI, the language of the document is not preserved. Instead, if I check the playback Options (located in the same place where I set the language of the document, the Advanced tab of the file properties dialog box [file > properties]), there is an empty space next to the 'language '.

    I'm sure I'm doing things. After all, before closing the document (after the assignment of a language of the document), Acrobat Pro XI wonder if I want to save the changes made to the document. Also, if I open the document in Acrobat Pro XI (after assigning a language of the document) and checking playback Options, it says language I selected next to "language". The problem is that the language is not maintained in Adobe Reader XI, I need whether for accessibility reasons.

    So my question: how to assign a language to the document in Acrobat Pro XI and store in Adobe Reader XI?

    Here is a screenshot of the same open document in Acrobat Pro XI both Adobe Reader XI to show what I mean:

    AcrobatReaderSupportScreenshot-Language.png

    Thank you for your help.

    Assistive technologies (screen readers AT - aka) rely on what's in the tree structure of a tagged PDF document. Try to set the parent top of the language of the structure tree.

  • Add the Date and time in PDF format when printing in Acrobat Pro ms

    Hello!

    I am trying to find a way to add a date stamp and time in a PDF file in Acrobat Pro ms when the document is printed. I found a great video on how to do it, but the version of Acrobat is older and the method no longer works.

    Old video version: https://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/how-to-add-a-date-stamp-to-a-form.

    The video lasts only 1.5 minutes and described what I need a t-shirt! I know that the process requires javascript, but I have no experience with this and need a very simple description of what I need to do (very, very basic if you please). As and for the record, I'm working on a Windows 7.

  • Is it possible to make a drafting in bulk in a legal document without manually scanning and OCR the document?  For example, there is an add-on that I can buy that can accomplish my goal in Acrobat Pro

    I work with legal documents throughout the day.  To submit supporting documents in the Court, the documents must be redacted statements inadmissible evidence. For example, information about the claims number, social insurance number, date of birth and date of birth must be redacted.  I want to know if there is a way to redact this information by a global search and replace rather than manually searching for information, which will be extremely laborious?  If not, is there a third-party application or add on that I can buy to use with Adobe Acrobat Pro, which will help me to achieve this goal?

    Why not just use the Radaction tool provided with Acrobat Pro. It is quite sturdy and offers various possibilities. Review of help for a detailed study of the tool.

  • When OMF add the data file in the tablespace

    Hi friends,

    We use oracle 11.2 with CMS (oracle managed file) for the database on the linux platform. the parameter - DB_CREATE_FILE_DEST had been set. at the present time, we received a message from global warming this tablespace criterion is 85% full.

    According to the document of the oracle, OMF auto will add a data file in the tablespace tast. more than a week, I do not see any data file has been added by OMF.

    I want to know when OMF adds the data file in the tablespace? 85% or 95% or some (parameter) setting this action?

    Thank you

    newdba

    OMF does not automatically add a new data file.  You must explicitly add a new data file with the ALTER TABLESPACE ADD DATAFILE command tbsname.

    What is OMF is to provide a Unique name and a default size (100 MB) for the data file.  That is why the ALTER TABLESPACE... Command ADD DATAFILE that you run didn't need to specify the file size or file name.

  • make a date of expiry of the coupon

    Hello

    I do a coupon as a form of Acrobat so my customer can modify the % off and customize.

    What I've got so far is a field 'issue_date' with a custom of the day, "event.target.value = new Date();" and calculation which is being shaped with the tab formatting to be displayed dd/mm/yyyy.

    What I want to do is then having the date "expires" field, which is generated by adding x number of days from the current date.

    So say 30 days after the date of the day.

    Can someone help me find the right script?

    Thanks in advance.

    Here is a script to custom calculation that you can use in the field of data of expiry:

    // Custom calculate script expiration date field
    (function () {
    
        // Get the current date
        var d = new Date();
    
        // Add 30 days
        d.setDate(d.getDate() + 30);
    
        // Populate this field with the result
        event.value = util.printd("m/d/yyyy", d);
    
    })();
    

    The script for the current date field should be something like:

    event.value = util.printd("m/d/yyyy", new Date());
    

    instead of using event.target.value

    You want to write the date and time in the photo?

    You need to do it in an external editor.  Photos can't.

    You can print the date and time and other legends on a Board-contact, however.  When you select a photo and then use the model of the "Contact Sheet", you can click the 'Captions' button and select the metadata to use as the legend on the contact sheet.

    To write directly to the photo, you can use the Preview.app.

    Export the photo to go to Photos and then open it in preview or install the extension of"external editors" of the App Store. Then you can open preview directly from the Panel of editing in Photos.  See this tip for user: external photo editors are here
