I would like to get the name of the computer user. Is this possible?

Hi guys!

Is there a function I can to get the user name of the computer that is using the / open my form?


I would like to surprise the user, praising your name on the form

Thank you!

Hi Rafael,.

It can be done, but you have to work within the security of Adobe strategy. It is considered a security risk for the form to use the script to collect information about the user of the computer. You will need to use a function of trust, which is in a JavaScript (.js file) file. This .js file is then placed in a specific folder on each computer using the form.

See a thread and examples here: Re: Dungeon user to print and see some pages

This can be very difficult to maintain, and you will encounter problems if the form is activated in Acrobat Reader.

Overall, it is possible, but it is a pain and if you form are intended to be used on several computers (outside), then it is probably not worth the effort.

Good luck
