  Hello

  Try to re - install ZoneAlarm on laptop, BUT it tells me that I must upgrade to the Microsoft Windows Service Pack 1 (SP1) to do this... I am running Windows Vista and when I click on windows update it works for literally hours without anything happeneing.

  Zone Alarm has a key valid license - but for some strange reason, he will not have, so I had to uninstall and reinstall ZoneAlarm - he tells me that I need this update - who will not come?

  Note: Windows Firewall is turned on right now and when I look at 'exceptions' does not offer updates of windows as part of the selection list.

  Please, any advice on this will be greatly appreciated.

• I created a form to complete 4 page. I would like to place a button at the bottom of page 4 when you click inserts another copy of the form in the existing file. I have the user to have the ability to easily create muliple copies of the same 4 pages in

  I created a form to complete 4 page in Acrobat. I would like to place a button at the bottom of page 4 when you click inserts another copy of the form in the existing file. I want the user to have the ability to easily create multiple copies of the same 4 pages in a single file. It is possible with Acrobat? I use a PC.

  It is possible using models and JavaScript, but if it is to work with the player, users will need to use the desktop version (Windows/Mac) of 11 Reader or CD player. Here is a link to an older article which explains the basics: Planet PDF - a lesson in the templates for Adobe Acrobat

  Note that this is a bit outdated, but it should help you get started. If you have any other questions, post them in the Acrobat JavaScript here forum: JavaScript
