  • Expand the text field

    Hey guys you can take a look at my request.

    http://Apex.Oracle.com/pls/OTN/f?p=30452:6

    The text fields are to close on the other, is there a way to spread a little wider text boxes?

    Thanks for all the help guys.

    As I see this example those are elements of single page (resembling a tabular presentation). You can put

  • How to expand the text fields in a form of Muse?

    I want my forms to have longer areas to enter text. When I download the catalyst of business they work fine, but when I export HTML to download on my server and try to type in the text, the text fills only about half of the space available before you start to scroll. The multi line box is even worse. All the entered text is received, but it's horrible. Any suggestions? I would like to know if it's fixable before that I spend too much time listening to my people IT for PHP.

    Please check the status of defined text entry, as if the form is inserted in a container, then try to test the form with different text input boxes in a new page.

    In addition, check the Middle height of the text inserted in the chassis.

    Thank you

  • Expand the text field to allow multiple pages

    Hi all

    WARNING: Not a programmer JAVA/type. I usually Google things to death and try to learn from there. Create a form and have followed some other suggestions, but I'm in a dead end to the expansion of a field (text field) to allow users to enter information, and to print the full entry once submitted.

    I changed the form must be sent using the e-mail button to choose the recipients and as doc pdf. I want to keep it this way. I created the form and do not use a template. I just signed up and looking for the button attach doc, created in Livecycle Designer ES in the hope that someone could take a look. Could not find the button attach. If anyone can provide their e-mail address to take a look, it would be great.

    Niall, I've been reading your posts and actually I tried copy and paste in one of your fields (re: subform as a debit, etc.) but so far no luck.

    I selected all the usual variables for the subform/text box:

    Allow multiple lines, allows breaks, will develop to adapt (height).

    Please indicate if someone is available to take a look and I'll send it to you. Thanks in advance for any recommendations/availability.

    Hi Jeff,

    Users return data can still submit a PDF from a dynamic XML form. It is always a PDF, it's just that description indicates that the form will enable dynamic behavior.

    There are other issues to consider. Knowledge that users interact with the form - Acrobat or Reader? Then you'll be reader allowing the form before deploy you? Finally, if you allow the shape, you use Acrobat or LC Reader Extensions ES2 to enforce the rights of the reader?

    Here is a table summarizing the options:

    There is a post here:

    http://www.assuredynamics.com/index.php/2010/11/using-LiveCycle-Forms-in-Acrobat-and-Reade r.

    So in summary:

    • The dynamic XML form is always a PDF file and can be opened in Acrobat or Adobe Reader.
    • The features of this user with reader can use will depend on what software they use and how the shape was active reader.
    • Refer to the question of whether the user needs to save the form and format in which you want to the form returned to (PDF or XML format).

    Hope that helps,

    Niall

  • Insert the text field into several pdf files

    I was wondering if there was a way to insert a text field into several pdf files. I have about 500 pdf documents that need to have a text field in the same location on page 1 of the document. Is there a way to create a batch for this? Can I create a blank PDF with the text field in the right place and superimpose somehow in the exsisting files? Or I'm stuck with opening each file and paste the text of field in there?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Yes, it is possible to do, if you have the version of Acrobat Pro and some knowledge of JavaScript.

  • I have created a form in Indesign. Is there a way to create the default text in a text field that displays the interactive pdf "insert text here" in the text field?

    I have created a form for the company, so that I work. It is a form that will be used in several offices and has buttons, drop downs and text fields. One of the text fields has a requirement that when the PDF file is opened, the text field has something written in there already, as an example (and one only) INSERT the TEXT HERE. I created the text field in Indesign and used the text tool to type in the area of the body-copy required. After that I have to export it as an interactive PDF, text in the text field disappeared.

    Drop-down lists give an option for a default choice, but I don't see a way to create default text in the Panel of buttons and forms for text fields. Is there a workaround or a hidden feature?

    Thank you!

    Set it in Acrobat.

  • Create a form with AutoFill and locked text fields.

    I have created a 24 page pdf form.  I have a shape on the first page, which contains all the information scattered on next pages 24.  Most of the stuff is redundant.  I would use the pages for auto-complete.  I know that you can name the text field the same, but the problem I have is.  I would like to auto-fill text fields must be blocked at this time there.  So that the tab through forms, these fields cannot be changed accidentally.  Also has been done.  When using excel, you can have the cell/text field search another cell and get this info.  But Adobe doesn't like this.  At least is not that I can find.  How can I automatically fill these fields then the future fields through the locked document?

    Thank you

    You can not give them the same name. You can do something like this, however: that you have a field named Text1 the editable value and a field called Text1Copy where you want to have the same value, but it is locked.

    Text1Copy the value read-only under its properties - general tab, then switch to the tab calculate and enter this code:

    Event.Value = this.getField("Text1").valueAsString;

    After that, whenever the Text1 value will be changed, it will be reflected in Text1Copy.

  • Default properties for the text field of the PDF forms

    How can I set the default properties for the text field?  The creator of forms set of font sizes that are too large.

    Right-click on the field > use current properties as new default.

    It will keep the new settings until the next time that you do this. It is not specific to the document. Do it separately for each field type (text, button, etc.)

    On an existing form, you can select multiple fields. A pro tip, is that you don't have to close the properties to move from the field to the field to the field. Dungeon opens and work faster.

  • How do I change police inside the text fields of the form

    I went through tutorials on lynda.com and success exceeds my form.

    However I can't understand how a change of default Times Roman in form fields in a different typeface.

    I assigned followed by paragraph styles, object styles, but nothing happens. I also can't change the font color in the text fields.

    Anyone know how to change these attributes?

    You cannot change the default font to a form field in Indesign. You can change the font in Acrobat by changing the form > by selecting the field properties > appearance > fonts

  • How do i: fill automatically the area other sections of the text field form?

    Hello. Need help please!

    I need a script, I guess that for a field text entered by the user automatically fill the area in the headers in the form of entry.  The header is identified by all that will enter the name of the user on the cover page.

    ID be very grateful.

    Stephanie.

    If you name the field in the header exactly as the text field, then you just need to set the binding at the global level and no script is needed. You can set the binding in the object palette in the binding tab. Then in the drop-down default choose global binding.

  • place text from the text field to the other in a subform of livecycle

    Hi all

    I have a dynamic form created in Adobe Livecycle Designer ES, which contains several subforms positioned inside a fluid page. I want to have two fields of text inside one of the subforms so that the text entered in the first field of text (not expandable) will continue in the text field (which is a repeating field). I know that there is a script inside of Acrobat that will do, but may not know how to write a JavaScript for the form in livecycle designer.

    The two fields serve as stand-alones without problem, but not as described above.

    (Here's the script Acrobat XI, which doesn't work for in livecycle, but give an idea of what I'm trying to do):

    Action: Triggered on mouse towards the top/run menu

    / * belongs to: AcroForm:textfield1:Keystroke * /.

    If (event.fieldFull | event.willCommit)

    this.getField("textfield2").setFocus ();

    < / ACRO_script >

    < / AcroForm >

    Is there a corresponding JavaScript for livecycle? Thanks for your suggestions!

    Hello

    You can use the full event here for the length text box that is set. So to write the following code in the complete event of a text field whose length is fixed.

    xfa.host.setFocus (the text field whose length is not fixed)

    Thank you

  • How to select all the text fields at a given time in Adobe Reader ms?

    I created a document that contains more than one text field I created with Acrobat Pro DC, I want to allow the user the ability to select all fields in order to change the text size/color and fonts at the same time... not having to go through the entire form and must make each field separately. To be a little more specific, the document is two pages with six place/lounge cards per page, designed for weddings and other events. Each place card has a field for 'user name' and ' number of table: my question is...» Is it possible to 'select all fields' in Adobe Reader? If I go to Edition > select all, the program selects all graphics and none of the text fields. Not exactly what I'm missing here and I can not find my answer online. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you!

    Jodi

    In this case, you can only change the properties of the text selected within a field. Acrobat Reader cannot change the properties of the text field.

  • Change of position of the text in the text field

    Hello! I've created a few text fields in a PDF form, but I have some problems with the text. The text automatically starts in the middle of the text field, and I want the text to start in the upper left corner of the text box. I can't find the option to solve this problem, anyone know a solution?

  • Shrink the text field

    Hi all

    I have a problem with my textfields in Livecycle. My goal is to have a text field of a certain size that can expand to accommodate more text or reduced to fit the text that does not have full space that offers the text field. I put my height of the text field to display everything and wrote a javascript statement to minimize the size of the text box to fit all text entered. The code is as follows and is in the output of the field event:

    If ((this.resolveNode("$").rawValue! = null & & this.resolveNode("$").rawValue! = "") & & this.resolveNode("$").rawValue! = "Enter text here.") {

    this.resolveNode("$").border.presence = 'hidden ';

    this.resolveNode("$").h = "";

    }

    EC that it is supposed to do, is to minimize the height of the text field when the user leaves the field so that the field corresponds to the amount of text (there is a default value on the field "Enter text here."). Everything works perfectly and the field will develop and adjust the text, however when the form is saved and then re-opened, the text field is reduced to an incredibly small size so that only the first line of the text is visible and it is cut in half.

    I suspect that the problem comes from the fact that the script I've written sets the height of an empty value, but it is only in the case of output, so the size of the field should not change from when the form is saved to when it is open. Does anyone have ideas for how to fix this?

    Replace this.resolveNode("$").h = "' with this.minH =".01in ".

    Also, this.resolveNode("$") is the same as just 'this' (as I know).
