Form field ToolTip & Read Out Loud

I know that having ToolTips for form fields in a document PDF is a requirement for accessibility. When I use the view > read this Page in Acrobat Reader format does not read the ToolTips for the fields of the form, even if I turned on read form fields in Preferences > reading. I have a two checkboxes and text on the form fields.

  • What should I do to have the functionality of reading this Page to read the ToolTips for form field?
  • And, if the features of read this Page actually read the ToolTips form field, wouldn't not rather redundant that it reads the balloon and then, it also reads label printed text on the form?
  • Some types of fields in form, considered as ' not accessible?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

All types of fields in a standard (i.e. not XFA) PDF form are accessible if - and only if - properly tag.

  • How to add 'Read Out Loud' in the 'set of tools.

    I always use the TTS. I want to add a shortcut in the toolset, then I can use my TTS immediately whenever I want to use.

    Thank you.

    You can't find it because it is not there. Quick tools will usually only allow you to pick up stuff that has a somehwre of button in the user interface. Read out loud does not have such a button.

    Instead of this, as recommended abiove, use keyboard shortcuts already assigned to reading aloud features, such as Ctrl - Y to start reading loud and Ctrl + V to start reding the current page.

    The fact that it is a PDF file, or you see the text on the page does not mean that it is in fact the text. Most likely, it's just an image that contains text inside. Therefore, the ROL feature does not recognize this text and cannot do anything with it. If you attempt to select with the mouse, you will see that it selects the entire page.

    There is nothing you can do about it in the drive, however. You must run the recognition of text on the file using Adobe Acrobat.

  • How to stop the message "this file contains form fields to fill out" to appear?

    Hello

    I have created a PDF file, but seen in Acrobat Reader displays a message at the top of the screen "this file contains form fields to fill live... »

    How can I stop this message from appearing automatically?

    PS, The original PDF has no form fields.

    If the document has a lot of buttons, this is probably the reason. If you have Acrobat, you can apply the security of the password and set restrictions so that filling form is not allowed. This will prevent the message appears.

  • Auto form field change color/data from pronounce on another page

    Adobe form help.jpg

    Hello!

    I recently got help on the forums and was able to write javascript to change the form fill and border based on an entry of individuals (thanks!).  I am now to experience the problems that I continue to work on this document.  I drew a picture that illustrates 3 different results, its located above.  To explain what I need, here is how the form is supposed to work:

    1. a user enters the State of equipment on page 2, I make sure that only AAA, BBB, CCC or s/o became acceptable.  Each value changes the field of form as shown above and n/d is no change on the ground at all.

    2. based on the user to page 2 input, I'm trying to get a form field only read to a "general status" page to change the color and change its value based on these entries.

    The three columns above show the 3 possible outcomes of the general State of page 1, that is to say:

    1: date of AAA [BACKSPACE] page 2 Date1 field. (all user entries are AAA (n/a which is not taken into account))

    2: date of BBB [BACKSPACE] page 2 Date1 field. (user input contained one or more of the values BBB or CCC)

    3: date of CCC [BACKSPACE] page 2 Date1 field. (all user input were CCC)

    I do this train to work and don't have adobe Adobe Acrobat XI worm: 11.0.13 at home.  Thanks for the help and if my description or photo is confusing, let me know and I can try to explain it differently.  Each column is a document, the document possible self doesn't have a 3 columns.

    J

    Let's see if I understand:

    1. the user enters 'AAA', and the color of the background/outline field turns green.

    2. the user enters "BBB", and the color of the background/outline field turn yellow.

    3. the user enters "CCC", and the color of the background/outline field turns red.

    4. the user enters "S/o", and the default color (it looks like teal) will be used

    4. If all the entries on page 2 are of the same color or the value "N/a", this color will be used for the field page 1

    5. If all the entries on page 2 are not the same color or the 'N/a', 'yellow' color value will be used for the field page 1

    Describes the behavior of the form?

    I would use a document level function to manage both the validation of the seizure and the choice of colors. The first part of the function (validation) is quite simple. The second part (setting the current color of field) is something that you already know how to do it. The third part, determine the color of a field of the general State is a little more complicated. I would like to look at all the fields that are not current on the ground - loop - (because you can just make a call to Doc.getField ()), then take the current information in the field of the event object in the validation script and determine what should be the status of the output (and then set the color accordingly).

    Something like this should work:

    function ValidateStatus() {
        // is the data entered either "AAA", "BBB", "CCC", or "N/A"?
        if (event.value == "AAA") {
            event.target.fillColor = color.green;
            event.target.strokeColor = color.green;
        } else if (event.value == "BBB") {
            event.target.fillColor = color.yellow;
            event.target.strokeColor = color.yellow;
        } else if (event.value == "CCC") {
            event.target.fillColor = color.red;
            event.target.strokeColor = color.red;
        } else if (event.value == "N/A" || event.value == "") {
            event.target.fillColor = color.cyan;
            event.target.strokeColor = color.cyan;
        } else {
            event.rc = false;
            app.alert("Only the values 'AAA', 'BBB', 'CCC', or 'N/A' are allowed");
            return;
        }
    
        // set the field on page 1
        var fields = ["Status1", "Status2", "Status3", "Status4"];
        var theStatus = "N/A";
        for (var i in fields) {
            var v;
            if (fields[i] != event.target.name) {
                v = this.getField(fields[i]).value;
            }
            else {
                v = event.value;
            }
            if (v == "N/A" || v == "") {
                continue;
            }
            else if (theStatus == "N/A") {
                theStatus = v;
            }
            else if (theStatus != v) {
                theStatus = "BBB";
            }
        }
        var msg = theStatus + "\n" + this.getField("Date1").value;
        var theColor;
        if (theStatus == "CCC") {
            theColor = color.red
        } else if (theStatus == "BBB") {
            theColor = color.yellow;
        } else if (theStatus == "AAA") {
            theColor = color.green;
        } else {
            theColor = color.cyan;
        }
        var f = this.getField("OverallStatus");
        f.value = msg;
        f.fillColor = f.strokeColor = theColor;
    }
    

    You then call it in four areas as a custom validation script:

    ValidateStatus(event);
    
  • Blocking of form fields before you send it by e-mail


    I created a form with fields and the button to send it by e-mail. This button should send the form with the information filled in PDF format, before being sent, some of the form fields to read only so no one else can change the contents of the fields.

    To achieve this end, I used the following script:

    1. F.Page_1.Button1::full - (JavaScript, client)
    2. F.Page_1.FIELD_ONE.access = "readOnly";

    ..

    1. F.Page_1.FIELD_TWO.access = "readOnly";
    2. app.execMenuItem ('Save');

    However, when the file is sent to the fields are not locked (ReadOnly), they can always be changed.

    Thanks for the tips!

    It is because you are using a Submit button. Thise buttons cannot be programmed. I suggest you add a second button (it is a regular button) and then the click event will be active. Add your code to this button and at the end of your code you can programmatically click the button submit like this your_button_name.execEvent ("click"). After that you can make your invisible submit button so that the user sees only a single button click.

    HOEP that helps
