How to paste into the text field of the Clipboard with JavaScript?

I implement the following actions in the form of javascript:

1. a user clicks on a link on the PDF to open a web page

2. the user uses the web page to find information and then copy text from the web page

3. the user clicks a button on the pdf form and it formats the text to the Clipboard and paste them into the text fields.

I can't find any references for the reading of the data from the Clipboard with javascript in PDF Forms. is it not possible?

Perhaps 'not possible' was a little too hard. It would be a security hole if she accepts a script in a form to copy the contents of the Clipboard without the user explicitly allowing it. It has been possible to copy the contents of the Clipboard into a form field using the app.execMenuItem method without the user knowing / allowing it, but that hole was closed. The restriction can be overcome, as explained in the documentation: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.143.html

  • Disabled pasting into a text field

    I have created a PDF form and I'm wanting to prevent the user so that they can paste text from another source in a text field on the form.  Is this possible?

    I use Acrobat Pro DC.

    Thank you.

    Script custom strike (the text field properties dialog box > courrieronglet > format Custom category > typing a Script custom) can be as simple as:

    Event.RC = event.change.length<>

    The problem is if you need to do for fields that use one of the categories (for example, number, or Date) built-in formatting, it gets complicated.

  • Adobe PDF printer crashes when you paste into the file name field

    Hello, first off there is no similar problem with all freeware pdf printers so I want to remove my config system as being the culprit. This only happens in Adobe PDF format.

    How to reproduce the problem? Have something in your Clipboard and try to paste it into the file name field when you print the file in pdf format - you should have now crashed everything that you were trying to print and the program behind it.

    Please make a fix for this, it is ridiculous that I have to install a second, freeware, pdf printer because thousand dollar software does not work properly. And I've lost tons of recipes and work this way.

    Solution is not to copy and paste into the save box.

    I found that this happens in programs other than Thunderbird and the reason why the freeware application works is that you paste into the window of the application instead of Windows' save box.

  • Cannot insert field or paste into the existing local Variable (Boolean container)

    Cannot insert field or paste into the existing local Variable (Boolean container)...  TestStand 4.1.

    It is very strange, especially since I've done it before.

    'Paste' and "insert field" selections are grayed out and disabled in the context menu.  I tried everything I could imagine and tried various combinations of positions.  I'm sure it's something simple, bu redicoulously, I can't find the redicule to solve this annoying problem issue.

    The local variable is a container of Boolean.  It has 90 elements and I need to add one more.  I can not change / rename or do something with this Local.  Must be karma (for those who know me in the LabVIEW forum).  Usually, you do a right click, insert field and that's where...  Not this one...

    Anyone seen this before?  Closing and re-opening TestStand doesn't change anything.  There is a collection in LabVIEW that feeds the local section in TestStand.

    It is a container of data custm type.  To change flags are ok (edit is allowed).  Can't think of any other valuable information...

    He finds...

    It should be edited in the Data Types...  It was not automatic after reloading the prototype of LabVIEW.

    I knew it was something stupid that I didn't...  I became close... but had not sought far enough.

    I was looking at the range of Types, but not in the file of the sequence...

    Hello

    Edit the element... There is a Readonly tab... Enter the condition for readonly... for example... Suppose you have a hidden field P1_X for the primary key. To add the new record, this field will be null and for editting p1_x will have the primary key value...

    So you can make the condition as P1_X readonly IS not null...

    Kind regards

  • Anyone know how I can disable the block with the wikipedia etc. that appears in the place of the cursor if you hover over the texts? This is a most annoying invention! Help, please! Thank you!

    Anyone know how I can disable the block with the wikipedia, google, etc., which opens at the location of the cursor if you hover over the texts? This is a feature of most annoying that one should be able to disable if not needed. I use windows xp family and have the latest desktop version of FF, but I don't think that they are the problem. Thank you very much.

    This isn't a core feature of Firefox (AFAIK) - looks like an extension you have installed is that fact.

  • I can copy a URL, but may not be able to paste into the body of an e-mail message. Also the hypelink doen't it. I don't have this problem with Internet Explorer...

    When I copy a URL and go to paste it into an email, it will not stick. Another box opens. I can paste the URL in the subject line, but doesn't hyperlink it. (blue) When you use Internet Explorer, I don't have this problem. I'm new to FF with a new computer.

    Paste a link in the subject line does not a link so that the part is normal. But being not not able to paste into the body of the e-mail is not. I can't think of a reason that would happen. What email program are you using?

    You must call the CreateInsert for the underlying ViewObject operation when opening the popup because it does not allow to clear the input field, you must have a new record created
