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.

    Hi S27.

    We had the similar problem, and I guess you went to the database MSSQL and verified that the table exists in fact.

    The problem we encountered was that we were in the wrong database on the instance of MSSQL.  I am unsure of your Setup, but if this is your case, you can try either by setting the database default to the ODBC connection to the correct on the instance MSSQL database (can be done on Windows, I'm not sure about Linux), or you can USE the command through the :

    SELECT
         DBMS_HS_PASSTHROUGH.EXECUTE_IMMEDIATE@<> ('USE <>')
    FROM DUAL;
    

    You try your select statement from the DB link.

  • I put 240 photos in an InDesign document using mini bridge.  Is there a way to hide the photos I used after I have put in my document?

    I put 240 photos in an InDesign document using mini bridge.  Is there a way to hide the photos I used after I have put in my document?

    I think Willi, and I even read your question differently. I thought you wanted to hide the images in Mini Bridge once they have been placed in InDesign so that you could keep track of those who you have (if you put twice the same image). If you want to hide in InDesign (as Willi read the question), his suggestion is very good. Another alternative is to use the shortcut to hide (command 3 on Mac OS), after putting the images, but before you click next to deselect them.

    I do not use Mini Bridge, so I can't help you there. If you want to use the full version of the bridge, you can use a Move command to move the selected items to another folder (temp), where they will not appear in your current folder. You can move after that that they all were placed. A bit of a hack, but it could work.

    I'm on Acrobat 10 for mac and I need help with the distribution of shape feature. Is there a way to change the registration e-mail download addressed to the? Currently all forms I create and then distribute may only be subjected to my email account... I appreciate any help!

    Do not use the feature distribute the form. Instead of this, just put up a button "submit" and configure it to send email using any email address you want. Just add a button and set the action of the mouse upward on "Submit a form" and use a type mailto URL and specify that you want to send the full PDF. Then activate the reader of the document: where "Advanced/extended features in Adobe Reader" is located in Acrobat XI?

    If you really want to use distribute the form for some reason, change the e-mail address in your preferences: Edit > Preferences > identity > Email address

    Link to your thread to listen would have helped: Oracle XE 11g with Apex No problem of Listener (ORA-12541: listener TNS:no)

    It seems that your listener uses the static instance via the listener.ora file registration and missing entries for the http service. Edit your listener.ora (F:\Apex_Installed\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server\network\ADMIN\listener.ora) file and add the following entries in the listener.ora file DESCRIPTION_LIST. Then, restart the listenerer.

    (DESCRIPTION=

  • have 8 GB of ram, but seems like all cached then run IE9 makes so slowly. Is there a way to clear the cache

    have hp computer with 8 GB of RAM running on vista 64-bit and see lately all put physical memory cached in the Manager of tasks with almost no free left.

    is there a way to clear the cache?

    Thanks in advance

    The value specified in the 'Cache' in the Task Manager includes more than the real system file cache. In particular, it includes the pending list. There are programs and files that have been previously referenced and the Windows file previously read. The waiting list pages can be reused immediately if an application requires more memory. There is an article with the definitions of the terms used and an introduction to the management of memory here:

    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ntdebugging/archive/2007/10/10/the-memory-shell-game.aspx

    To see your use of memory more in detail, download and run Process Explorer from here:

    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/Sysinternals/bb896653

    Go to view > system information. (or Ctrl + i). Select the memory tab and view the information in the left column under Commit Charge and physical memory.

    To better answer your question, please provide the following details.

    • Describe in more detail what you mean by Internet Explorer is slow.
    • Being of other applications of runs slowly or only Internet Explorer?
    • How many tabs you have open and how many other applications is running when Internet Explorer is running slowly?
    • You are running Internet Explorer 32-bit or 64-bit? See this article to know that if you do not know: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ieinternals/archive/2009/05/29/q-a-64-bit-internet-explorer.aspx

    I don't use Constant content so I can't be specific, but if the Constant Contact provides you with the forms that you can integrate in your Web site then you can do this by using the object--> the tool Insert HTML code. But there is no way to do it with the standard format of Muse.

  • Is there a way I can add alternate text to links in Indesign cs6?

    Hello

    I need to put a lot of (> 1000) hyperlinks in my indesign document. Is there a way I can add alternate text to links in Indesign cs6?

    The idea is to then copy - paste the links by using the search function.

    So far I had to manually ad text in acrobat.

    My document is supposed to work like this: when a person reads the text and does not include an underlined word, they can click on it and it is brought to a dictionary into the document.

    The document must be accessible to people with disabilities.

    No automatic way. The problem is that each hyperlink typically has unique text. Therefore, there is no way to really automate it. You can see a sanitation such as by Netcentric Technologies Commonlook product. It is generally used for the protection of the files for accessibility, but it may include the ability to more easily add the alt text in hyperlinks. It would be well done in the exported PDF file and still not in InDesign.
