• Adjust the text in the form field

  How do you shrink to fit the text in the form field when you fill in a document?

  I use reader XI.

  This document is a form of Government and a protection on it, if it's important.

  It is mainly for the purpose of printing and using the paper document. When you print from the field cut the text and it is impossible to read the entirty of the field.

  Thank you

• Is it possible to delete the default text in a form field onclick?

  I am trying to add javascript to clear the default text in a form field using onclick?  Any idea?

  Thank you!

  Rather than enter a default text in the field, get rid of any script, you have for the field and use the following custom format script:

  Custom Format script

  If (! event.value) event.value = "your default text goes here.";

  The string that you specify here will be displayed when the field is empty and the text that is entered in the fields, in the opposite case. It will also disappear when the field is selected, which is what you want.

• Replace the text in the form field with javascript

  Hello

  I am trying to replace an existing text in a form field, if a user enters a number.  For example, during the validation of required fields, Adobe does not accept "0" as a valid entry.  My users regularly enter '0', and it must be valid.  I noticed that if you enter "0.001 ', he admits that, but still the poster ' 0.00' (I'm only show 2 decimal places, so it's OK)."

  My problem is that I can not find the syntax to have the ' 0.00' replaced by a "0.001' by the system."

  I would be very happy for any input!

  Thank you!

  Try the following script:

  var requiredFields = [], error = "";
  
  for (var i = 0; i < numFields; i++) {
  
      var fName = getNthFieldName(i);
      var f = getField(fName);
  
      if (f.type !== "button" && f.required && !f.valueAsString) {
          requiredFields.push(fName);
          error += fName + "\r";
      }
  }
  
  if (error) {
      app.alert("Please complete the following fields: \r\r" + error, 3);
      getField(requiredFields[0]).setFocus();
  } else {
      print();
  }

• Enter the text for the form field and do to repeat in the following pages

  Hi - I'm working on an interactive form of 14 pages. There are two text fields that must appear on the bottom of each page.

  Anyone know if it is possible for the user to these fields in competition once and while the text automatically repeat on the following pages?

  I create the form in InDesign CS6 (I CC, but it runs like a turtle).

  Any help much appreciated! Thank you.

  Form fields with the same name will have the same value, so just name them

  Similarly.

  Duplicate a field on several pages is easily achievable in Acrobat, by the way.

  There is a built-in function that allows you to do when you right click on a shape

  in form editing mode.

• Display additional text on click (form field)

  I'm trying to get the text formatted in a form field. Is this possible?

  This field is only for display during the click on another field. Click, I want to display a table of columns 2 and 3 with borders and another font and font size in the document. I can do this with an image (icon button field), but I would stick with the text if possible.

  You must configure the field to allow rich text editing. Change the properties of the text, display the toolbar properties by clicking Ctrl + E and you will see how you can change.

• How can I change the text (not the form fields) in the forms of the documents I created in LiveCycle ES pre?

  I can't edit it in Adobe Acrobat X or DC (it gives me an error message saying that I need to edit in LiveCycle Designer), but when I try to use the new LiveCycle Designer ES4 the function of editing text appears in gray.

  Help, please!

  You must make all editions of text on a form in Designer in the designer. It is therefore more a regular PDF, but rather an XML contained in the PDF structure. So you can change is no longer the text form in Acrobat.

• Small opaque text behind the text in the form field

  When I type in the few fields on this application , namely in the children's section, on the first page and the section on the second generation something strange happens. When you type in the field, it works; However, it reflects the exact text BEHIND the text in the normal field. This text in mirror is small and opaque, but there nonetheless. When you print on demand, the whole area looks like jibberish due 2 texts that overlap. Any help would be great, thanks!

  For some reason, all the fields child, spouse's name # and Date of birth in this file are double, one on the other. And since they have the same names, their values are replicated, which is the strange shadow effect that you see.

  This occurs with other areas as well as in the file, but not with them.

• Import text from the form field in the subject line of the email

  Hello

  Is it possible to import the text field in the subject line of the message when sending back (fixed) PDF form?  In other words, there is a "name of the applicant" and I want that name to the subject line of the e-mail.

  I use Adobe Acrobat X (10.1.7)

  If someone has orientation aby or online resources, where I can find this information I would be very happy!  I have searched all day, but have not yet found a solution.

  Thank you!

  Make sure that check the option Edit - prefs. - JavaScript to display the console on errors and warnings.

  In addition, 'subject' is a bad name for a variable, because there is already a property with the name of the Document object. Rename this variable to something else. Also, remove the bUI: false parameter. It has no effect and takes by default to true.

• Help: Duplicate text in all form fields

  When the field (from the PDF form to fill out on-line that I created) form to fill in the PDF file, duplicate text in other areas in the PDF file, no matter what box you type in. Help?

  This is the behavior of PDF forms if the field names are the same, so you just need to change their names in Acrobat so that they are all different.

• Wrap the text in the form field

  I created a PHP form in DW MX04/Win XP SP2 by using a script of form... One of the fields is a multi line text field where the user can enter a resume or type information. When something is pasted (for example a CV) into the input box encapsulates the input and the input box does not overflow and create a horizontal scrolling. However, when something is typed in, the information continues in a single line and a horizontal scroll bar appears. Is it possible to limit the width of the entrance and do a 'carriage return' on the right edge of the input box? I tried all settings to wrap in the property inspector, but none of them do.
  
  TIA
  
  Fred

  Thank you Gary. I found out what the problem was/is. As a test I was now the key 'A' and let it repeat. In doing so he continued on a single line and created a scroll bar. However, if I type a 'normal' sentence, it wraps at the end of the box. Because I don't think that anyone will enter a long uninterrupted string, it shouldn't be a problem.

• Copy the text of form field text box on another page

  Hi all

  I'm designing a document using Muse who, in a wizard-esque fashion, get the user to fill the fields of the form, and then the text entered in form fields is automatically filled fields of text on other pages so that a customized document can be printed.

  However, research, I made, I have not found anything I can use other than using PHP code style but I can't juxtapose that to bring the value of text to another page instead of an email.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you, in advance.

  You need to add a custom to your form code to achieve this.
