Copy the text in the field to other areas in the same PDF format?
Is it possible to give the user an option to copy the text entered in certain areas to other areas in the same PDF? I want to do it is because I have the user fill in several fields of address (address, city, State, zip) and I have another section to ask a physical address (address, city, State, zip). I would like to users the ability to click on a button (?) to automically fill in the fields of physical address if the address is the same.
Thank you
Derek
Here's a line of code that copies the text from the text field to the other. You can use it in the mouse event to the top of a button and add as many lines as required:
// Copy value of one field to another getField("text2").value = getField("text1").valueAsString;
Replace "text2" and "text1" with real field names that you use.

Why the same PDF allows to comment on Windows but not on Linux?
All,
I have a PDF document that (on version 9.5.1 Adobe Reader on Linux) has its file > properties... > Security > field commenting on the value "unauthorized." However, I copied the same file on a Windows and Adobe Reader 10.1.3 machine to open. On the Windows machine, the property of security even said this annotation is authorized. Why the difference? I would like to make comments on the Linux version, but it won't give me the tools to highlight or sticky notes.
For what it's worth, all security properties (for example, 'Impression', 'Assembly of Document', '"content copying", etc.) between the two copies of the PDF are identical.with with the exception of the property of 'comments '.
Thanks for any help,
-Steve Ross
Thank you for your detailed review. In my opinion, your table supports my statement, and all is well. I stated (by the Readme) Reader X has been extended to allow the highlighting and sticky notes EVEN when a file is not extended.
Thus, the Linux player, in version 9 and older than this change, should not for a default file display these tools. Since it cannot display these tools and no one else, poster correctly it is CORRECT to say his comments is not allowed.
It seems to me that your table correctly records the difference between version 9 of the reader (Linux or Windows) and version X of the reader (not available for testing on Linux), except that nothing is wrong.
It may not be what we want, but it's a whole different story.

in Acrobat 8 Standard advanced editing tool is grayed out in Windows 7 and Windows 10 but works with the same pdf file in Windows XP Professional. Why?
Perhaps because Acrobat 8 is not compatible with Windows 7 or 10.

Is it possible to create the icon PDF format display with the cover of the document image, when sending via "Mail" on a mac?
InDesign has no control on how Apple Mail displays a PDF it creates.
My experience is that Mail displays a preview of a single PDF page, but not a multiple page PDF. In addition, for a single page PDF, the user may tip if the PDF shows a preview by right-clicking the icon/preview.

Multiple opening/window of the same pdf file
Hello
How can I open the PDF even several times (twice) in multiple windows (two)?
If I click on the same pdf once again, after that it is already open, it seems to sense that it is already open and does not open it again in a second window.
Any ideas?
Thank you
Franz
Use the window menu > new window.

Copy the contents of multiple fields to other areas
The application is a purchase order. There is a column for billing information. There is a column for shipping information. I would like to have a small box or a button that fills the shipping info if it should be the same as the billing information. Can you point me in the right direction?Hello
You can use JavaScript (with or without dynamic Action) and write something like
$s( "P20_SHIPPING_INFO", $v("P20_BILLING_INFO") );
This should be called on the onChange event of the checkbox or if the button should be at the onClick event.

Why a transportable tablespace for the migration of the platform in the same endian format?
RDBMS version: 10.2.0.4
We intend to migrate our database to another platform. The two platforms are in BIG endian format. Search on Google, I came across the following link
http://levipereira.files.WordPress.com/2011/01/oracle_generic_migration_version_1.PDF
In this IBM paper, they migrate to AIX 6 of 5.9 on Solaris (SPARC). Both are BIG endian format. Since both are the same size endian can they use TRANSPORTABLE database? Why use RMAN COVERT DATAFILE (Transportable tablespace)?In this IBM paper, they migrate to AIX 6 of 5.9 on Solaris (SPARC). Both are BIG endian format. Since both are the same size endian can they use TRANSPORTABLE database? Why use RMAN COVERT DATAFILE (Transportable tablespace)?
they use portable database - that they do not import data to the dictionary, not creating users--rather than use data conversion, they used convert datafile to avoid to convert all the data files (you will need to convert only cancel + system tablespace)-there are MOS Note: avoid Conversion Datafile during the transportable database [732053.1 ID].
Basic steps to convert database:
1. check the prerequisites
2. identify the directories and external files with DBMS_TDB. CHECK_EXTERNAL.
3. (coherent) stop and restart the database source in READ ONLY mode.
4. use DBMS_TDB. CHECK_DB to ensure that the database is ready to be transported.
5. run RMAN convert database command.
6 copy the files converted into the target database. Note that this implies that you will need 2 x the storage on the database source for converted files.
7 copy the parameter in the target database.
8. set the configuration files as required (setting, listener.ora and tnsnames, etc.).
9 start the new database!All other details are:

Export to SWF format, keeping the same page formats
Hello
I have a document InDesign, CS5, with different pages. They are all double spreads of A4 except for two pages. One is A4 portrait on its own and landscape.
When I export to swf format, these pages turn into double page spreads, which means that I end up having what looks like a blank page next to my single page.
Is it possible to keep different page sizes when exporting to SWF format?
Thanks in advance,
ZoeByDesign
Not West not. InDesign exports your SWF using the size of the largest spreading in your document. Small gaps or pages will be exported to that as well size, filled with extra white space...
I suggest you change the size of these unique pages on the size of the other "spreads" (portrait A4 > A3 landscape) and fill the empty space you want in InDesign rather than let the SWF exporter to use white color. If you want it to look like it s single page, fill empty space with the same color, you as the background for your html-wrapper file.
Check this sample (cover page is actually a gap, but the left side is full of gray that was used as the background):

6 Lightroom uses the same catalogue format Lightroom CC (2015)?
If I open my catalog Lightroom 6 (backup external drive of home computer) with Lightroom CC (2015) on my work PC will be the catalog be transformed or used as what? I know how to open a 5 Lightroom Catalog will require conversion to the new format of catalog (and then I won't be able to use the catalog converted on my PC at home with LR 5).
Hi michaelk,.
It will not conversion for the catalog from Lightroom 6 opening in 2015 CC with Lightroom, because both are the same version.
Lightroom (perpetual) 6 and Lightroom CC 2015 (cloud creative), so there should be no problem.

How to cut a clip and export using the same file format
I use CS6 on a Windows 7 system. I have a MB 304, 8 HR record from a workshop that I put on recently and I would like to extract the different sections of the workshop in their own files.
Here's the info from the source file:
Type: MPEG Movie
File size: 304,0 MB
Image size: 1920 x 1080
Frame rate: 5.00
Audio Format: 16000 Hz - compressed - Mono
Project Audio Format: 32000 Hz - 32 bit floating point - Mono
Total duration: 07; 35; 20; 25
Pixel format: 1.0
My ideal solution is to delimit work areas that cover the section I want to extract and then export it to the target file by using the same parameters as the source file.
So far, the resulting files have been considerably larger than the source file, so I hope that there is a simple way that I'm missing.
THX!
So, can you go down to set rates manually? It's been a while since I used CS6, but I think that the option was there... and something you can do to help, is to say MediaInfo on your computer...
Media Info: https://mediaarea.net/en/MediaInfo
Drag & drop your clip on that, it will tell you the exact wrapper and the codec used, including the bitrates & such. You will know exactly what your current clip is this way. Build a preset to match.

I'm unable to change the text of a document when I imported a document in PDF format in word 2013
Cannot change the text in word after import
Hi gfjbo,
Please try triple click in the text block that you want to change. By default, ExportPDF performs OCR (optical character recognition), so if the PDF file has been created from a scanned document and the text of the contained image, it would have been converted into editable text by ExportPDF.
If this does not work, please let us know and we will take it from there.
Best,

Why are all my folders/files in the same display format? Win. 7
A few days ago I had some folders/files in the "Détails" view, then I could get into this folder and the files/folders would be to "large icons". For some reason, all my folders/files turned to mode «Détails» If I changed the view of the "Large icons" folder, it would change just return to the 'Details' when I returned to the folder. I changed it if all folders/files are now to "Large icons", but it was so much easier having separate folders contain separate views. How can I return it to that?
I use Windows 7 Home Premium.This article basically talks about about how take a point of view and copy to other folders, but it also explains how to do the opposite. This also explains why the libraries do not allow this (which means that you can never have seen separate if you go to a library).
