import information to build a list and fill in the text boxes

I would like to make a shape something like this tutorial (https://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/change_another_field) where a drop down menu fills text fields. Its for an address book of all kinds. The customer name in the drop-down list, first line of text form would address, second, city, state and zip.

Is it possible to have this information imported from a text file, file xml or something a little easier to manipulate outside of acrobat? It would be the best of the worlds so he could shoot from an excel document.

Something like that? Scripts custom Adobe: Acrobat - fill the drop-down list

  • How to connect the DELETE keys and BACKSPACE in the text box?

    Hi all

    So I know I can addEventListener (TextEvent.TEXT_INPUT, onTextInput) to capture any text entry events.

    How to capture when someone presses the DELETE key or back?

    I tried addEventListener (KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, onKeyDown); with if(event.keyCode == Keyboard.BACKSPACE), but it triggers the event before the change is made to the text box.  I'd like capture the event return back after that the text box is updated.

    Any help appreciated.

    Also, does anyone know how to capture you cut / copy / paste events?

    Thank you

  • Cannot change order of stroke and fill to the text

    In Illustrator CC, I have a text with background colors and contour, and I hang outside the text, not half-n-half. From what I can read (for example Why can't fix us a line of text to the outside (as in InDesign) without having to first convert them into text vectorized?), the way to do that is in the appearance Panel, dragging filling to the top or the race down. But they don't change places when I try - I drag, but nothing changes. And in the Panel advanced stroke, the second and third options to align the lines appear dimmed.

    If I saw the text, then all the choices to align the shots are allowed, but I prefer to do it with the living text. Is this possible?

    It should work as follows:

  • Drag and drop the text box color - pages

    Hello

    I just upgraded from Pages 09 to 5.6 Pages. Pages 09, if I did drag a color from the menu of color on a text box, it might change the color of the text. 5.6 pages this action changes the fill of the text box, not the color of the text. Is it possible to force the behavior of 09 to 5.6? I change the color of the text much more often than the color of the background of the text box.

    Thank you very much!

    Force the behavior of Pages ' 09 v5.6? Absolutely not.

    Pages ' 09 and v5 are entirely different applications and not surprisingly, they work differently also. In the Pages v5, fill, text and a text box border color come from different parts of the application, not a central color palette.

  • You can prevent a user copy and paste in a text box Widget?

    Hello

    I use the Widget text box in a custom quiz that I created.  Is there anyway to prevent a user to paste into the text box?  Basically, I need to make sure that students to type in the answer, not just copy a document and paste in the text box Widget.

    Initially I was using BER (which naturally seems to avoid this) but moved to Widget text box, so I could to format the text.

    As always, I appreciate the help!

    They can also paste a TEB, sorry. You can provide such a limitation. The interaction of the scrolling text can be used to display the text (check the 'read only' option) or to allow the user to enter text.

  • Letters in boots upwards in the text boxes and captions

    Hello

    I was working on a pdf file in Acrobat 8.1.4 Standard and I made the text boxes and legends throughout this document, but recently it has begun to overwrite the text. When I open another pdf file and start making notes, there is no problem.

    I can't upload a sample of this document because it is a Government document and there are permissions, but like I said I did my annotations and recently he started to arrive.

    Help, please.

    I found this on my own. It seems that the embeded font was corruptted so I just use a different font for text boxes and all is good.

  • Need help to fill in a text box in a drop-down list.

    I think I have most of the code and correct settings, but I need help.

    I have a drop down list that is populated with 3 States. When a certain State is selected in the drop-down list, I need a text box to fill with tax information for each State. I list them set up variables that define the drop-down list data and the data that I want to appear in the text box. I also code basic javascript in place - but it is not perfect.

    The problems I'm having with the dynamic .pdf file include:

    1. where a State is selected in the drop-down list, the user must first click the text box so that the appropriate text appears in the box.

    2. when a State is selected in the drop-down list and the user clicks on the text box to display the text of tax info, tax info text does not change as it should if a user selects a different State in the drop-down list.

    3. the tax information in the text box will appear for 2 States (what is because the variable list that I put in place for these States has too many characters of text? Is there a way to bypass this limitation?)

    Can someone help me change the javascript code and settings that I use to make the text field to fill in correctly? It is the first project of livecycle that I tried and my first experience with javascript.

    Here's the file I'm working on:

  • Can I define the contour of an object to be on top / face and filling on the bottom / back?

    Can I define the contour of an object to be on top / face and filling on the bottom / back?  I've asked this question before and told to go to the appearance and drag the background and outline around as if they were a layer, but this did not bring my race to the top of the image.  I did this wrong somehow, or is there another method?

    I was just thinking ' didn't I said this the other day... ". "in any case...

    This is an object with a dark gray line and a red fill. the race is in front of the filling. any random object that you draw will be the race before filling unless you tell her not to be. You can say that the race is forwards here because it extends also on each side of the framework encompassing:

    Here, the situation is reversed. Note the appearance palette. You can fill is in the front because it now covers half of the race which extends inside the frame enclosing:

    If this is not the behavior you're seeing, it's time to refer to the list of Jacob.

  • I use LR 6.5 on an iMAC. Files RAF Fuji originally, I imported from an SD card worked and exported in the form of PSD and then after saving the files on an external hard drive RAF erased from Lightroom. I now want to import some RAF b HD files

    I use LR 6.5 on an iMAC. Files RAF Fuji originally, I imported from an SD card worked and exported in the form of PSD and then after saving the files on an external hard drive RAF erased from Lightroom. I now have to import some RAF of the HD files but LR shows them as dazed out and said that they have already been imported when I hover over the thumbnail. I have this problem when importing files in the same HD Canon CR2, and who have been treated exactly the same. Anyone got a clue as to why this is happening? Thanks, Phil

    Hi Phil,

    If Lightroom then reads these as duplicate files, it shows that they are already present in your Lightroom Catalog.

    You can search by file name and check if the image is present in your library.

  • Print form fields don't all of the information in the text box

    I work with Adobe Pro.  I created a form to fill out.  When you print this form I get all the information in the text boxes that you want to print.  Anyone out there know how to do this?

    You must set the size of the font of the auto field so that all the text is visible on the screen, and then it will appear in its entirety on the printed page.

  • White type in the text box with fill with transparency

    This page of color in my INDD document a lot of transparency on this - in the following stacking order:

    1. downstairs are two boxes gradients covering the entire page.

    2. next is a background photo that's an advantage to feathers.

    3. then comes my text box that floats over a part of the photo in the background. The text box is filled with a gradient purple feather. The text box contains 8.5 PT. White type (Helvetica Neue Medium).

    4. a transparent dingbat straddles a corner of the text box.

    Where the white guy is pictured in the background, a color is reflected type. I have not noted on the PDF, but of course, the work of back of the printer, you can see.

    I thought all type except automatically eliminated black?

    I pulled out the file using PDFX-3 (1.3) because my printing does service provider ' t supports the 1.4. I underdstand this version flattens transparency. I scanned "Print Production Guide for transparency" Adobe and learned that the areas of complex transparency can cause unexpected results. Is what happened here?

    When I opened the flattening of transparencies and he asked to highlight objects with 'Text of Raster-Fill and Stroke' or 'Text described', this type area is highlighted. No other boxes on this page type were noted, even where it overlaps the background photo (which has applied feather).

    Several other transparent dingbats (such as duplication of the text box) are also highlighted as 'Raster - Fill and Stroke text'. They are all on the highest layer (type).

    This isn't a disaster - it's still readable - but the details of the publication who are affected, which is important. Maybe next time I won't be as lucky. What would I do different?

    It is possible in the more recent versions of ID to the value of transparency to the object, STROKE, fill and levels of content, and I suspect that you have applied your effects to the object level. I was able to recreate what you see as well by using the gradient feather tool and in the effect controls panel and using the pen it y to the entire object. Oddly enough, once the gradient feather tool has been used I couln can't access options in the effect controls panel or in the menu object.

    In all cases, if you can, select the block of text, open the effect controls panel or object > Effects > menu feather degraded, remove the gradient feather and reapply just the filling.

    If you are not able to do so, copy the text, delete the block of text and create a new and paste back the text, and then select the image and apply the gradient feather to complete using the effect controls panel or the menu object.

    Can I still create my site design by dropping the images, the texts and the text boxes or what I have to learn code?

    Database coding (HTML & CSS) is necessary to get the most out of DW.   It of not an app drag & drop like Photoshop or Illustrator.

    If coding isn't your strong point, try Adobe Muse.  MU is for designers and non-codeurs enjoy working in a GUI.   You are limited with what you can build with MU.  So don't expect to do advanced stuff or you will not be disappointed.  But for the basis of hobby, charity or vanity sites, MU might be all you need.
