How to create forms in pdf format with text for example which can be rewritten

I'm using a mac (version 10.10.2), using acrobat pro. Originally created the document in InDesign, then create form fields in acrobat pro.

Sorry for the somewhat confusing title. Basically I have a pdf I want to be able to change.

I've set up the PDF with form fields that works perfectly - however, I would like to have a sample text in the areas that can be "crushed" by a new text.

Example of

If the field were asked for the date, it would be in gray italics an example of date, (ie. 01.01.2016)

Then when you clicked on the ground this example text would disappear and then when you typed in the new data, it would appear in normal black text.

I can't understand how to do this on a form which is not online, as this form will be sent from one person to another and not hosted on a site.

Help would be apprectated!

Yes, the default value is under Options.

Two scripts have to go under Actions, Yes. You select the trigger first (on the focus and then on Blur) and the type of action is "Run a JavaScript" then when you add it to the list of Actions, a window will open. Paste in the code and press OK. That's all...

    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.

  • How to create forms in Acrobat 9?

    I have a problem. I don't know how to create forms to fillable word document in acrobat 9.5.5. and can't find anything online

    The usual way is to create the word of PDF form, open the PDF in Acrobat and adds the fields of the form: forms > add or edit fields

    and you will be where you can add and configure the fields in the form of form editing mode.

    To add form fields to an existing PDF, select: forms > add or edit fields

    To create a PDF as Acrobat file an existing Word document, you can select: forms > start the form wizard > use an existing file

    You can select PDF, Word, Excel, etc. and Acrobat will attempt to automatically add form fields where he thinks they belong.

    I do not recommend the choice: forms > start the form wizard > create a PDF form from scratch

    Since then, it will start an older version of LiveCycle Designer.

    All this is will work with Acrobat 9 Pro. If you have the level, some things are not available, but you will still be able to enter the form editing mode.

    Error: get a lot of error. Do you know how to change my code?

    Question: how to create a file name variable with the County and the date?

    Mini code:

    std::string * rawfilepath;
    std::string * rawfilename;

    rawfilepath = "./shared/documents/";
    RawFileName = rawfilepath + 'rawlog -' + 0 + '-.txt ';
    QFile file (rawfilename);
    If (file.exists ()) {}
    rawfilenamecount ++;
    RawFileName = "./shared/documents/rawlog-" + rawfilenamecount + "-.txt ';
    }

    Thank you for your attention,

    Thank tzander reminding me the idea. Method of cascades is not good for me because all of the kernel code is written by Native. If I change the channel to QString, I need to change a lot of codes.

    Solution is below.

    While (access (rawfilename, F_OK)! = - 1) {}
    rawfilenamecount ++;
    sprintf (format, RawFileName, rawfilenamecount);
    fprintf (stderr, "file exists");
    }

    Rawlog = fopen (rawfilename, "w"); Save the file in a specific path.
    fprintf (rawlog, "System Time (ms)" "");

  • How to create a my Signature (signature with the tablet of manufacturing) Action?

    How to create a my Signature (signature with the tablet of manufacturing) Action?

    I use PSCS6?

    I have no problem making an action of signature if I pick a font and then type in my name,

    but to make a real action of my signature seems impossible.

    Hello

    There is a very cool technique to do by your signature in a Photoshop brush.  Once this is a brush, you can change the size and place the signature everywhere where you want.

    Google "Photoshop brush signature" or something similar and you will see a lot of tutorials.  Try this one:

    Photoshop reference guide | Creating a custom brush Signature | Peachpit

    Basically, you sign your signature on a blank piece of paper, then you scan in a JPG or TIFF file, then you open that file in PS to create a brush.

    I hope this helps.

    Hello

    I have a problem with vWorkSpace do not load VM and I really hope that someone here might be able to add comments. We run vWorkSpace v8.5 on a box of windows server 2012 and v6.1 Hyper-V on Windows Server 2008.

    After running then changing the main image, I've updated the image of our cloud. Once the update of the virtual machine would not load, giving the below error

    We believe that it is somehow to do with Hyper-V under Windows 2008 and vWorkSpace running on Windows 2012 - the VHDX format is not supported by the version of Hyper-V server. A glance online confirms this. So my question is, how update the master image changed the format VHD vWorkSpace wants to use and is there a way to assign vWorkSpace don't know this format?

    I have widely in search of a solution to this line and not found anything it either, nor there seems a clear way in the vWorkSpace console to change that.

    Thank you

    Hello

    I suspect that you have created a snapshot on your model.  It is not supported, if you delete the snapshot so that the .avhd is merged to the vhd/vhdx and update the model in vWorkspace again.  If this does not work, you will need to delete the model of vWorkspace and then re-import.

    Concerning
