InDesign CC: Text in editable text fields in the process of disappearance after export

Hello

I'm having a problem of text of text editable in endangered fields after you export the document as an interactive pdf. I created the text that should be editable in acrobat with InDesign CC. Thus, for example, I want to have a field editable text that said "I am Marie." I want users to have the ability to change from "Married" to "Tom" or "Ben" in Acrobat. So the pdf should have a form of editable text, saying the phrase "I am Mary" when users open the PDF in Acrobat. However, aafter export, the remains of fields of text, but the text itself "I am Mary." disappeared. I do not understand why this is happening because the text is there when you preview in the Preview SWF window in InDesign.

Here it is the list of steps in my work.


STEP 1: Create some texts (for example, m with the tool text frame in InDesign CC )


STEP 2: Click with the right button on the image and click on "Interactive > convert to text field»

OR

STEP 2: Select the block of text, open the window "buttons and forms" and change the type as "text field"


STEP 3:  Export the document as an interactive pdf. The parameter is set by default.


Result: When I open the PDF in Acrobat, the text field is there, but it is empty.


Please help me solve this problem. I know this is possible because a person in front of me in my work.

Thank you!

As far as I know, to have a form pre-filled text [I am Marie] appear in the text field, you must set the default value of the text field in Acrobat. You can do this by selecting the field property > Options > Default Value

  • Text in the text captions in the process of disappearing in Captivate 6

    Hi, we have a problem of corruption. We use Captivate 6.0.1.240. The text in the slide captions disappear when we open the file. And it is only the text itself, the text box is visible. When you look at the film, the text is there, and if we select a legend on the blade and move it, the text appears again. However, if we do this, save and close the file, the text will disappear from the slide again once the file open.

    These files as summer created in CS5, we later moved to CS5.5, then knit using 6. My colleague and I are working equally between 32 and 64 bit.

    If someone has had this problem before or someone knows a solution for this problem? This is getting very frustrating because all our files have been to corrupt as apparent that without reason. Thank you.

  • Form multipart with fields in the process of disappearance; best practices

    I have a very complex shape with about 500 fields divided into about 25 groups of tabs. Not all fields are applicable, or any tab groups.  There is an integer variable 'type of form' which determines which fields are applicable.   I have the ability to place a special character in the database for a field indicate that it is not applicable.

    The visible fields are overlapping sets, i.e. a, b, c may be visible in a condition all in b, e, f are visible in another.

    It is not enough to turn them off, I want the fields not applicable to disappear and to not leave an empty spot on the Panel where they would be displayed.

    I looked at the STATES, but the complexty of the overlay defines overwhelmed me.  I was worried that everything would be good for a few games, but most have been implemented, I'd get too complex code to debug and maintain.

    The best solution I can think of is to adjust the height to 0 if a field is not applicable.  Since I had subclass the form widgets flex for other reasons anyway, it's not too hard.  It just seems like there should be a better way.

    Can I use Flex 3 or 4.  Any suggestions?

    You must define includeInLayout to false too.

  • Add the date and time to a text field when the form is submitted

    Is it possible to add the date and time to a text field where the user is clicking the button of form submit?

    I created a custom send form button and do not use the distribution process to collect the results and would like to have a time stamp of when the form has been sent.

    Thank you!

    Sure. Before your submit order add a command run JavaScript with this code:

    this.getField("SubmitDate").value = util.printd ("mm/dd/yyyy hh: mm", new Date());

    Change the field name or date that required such boss.

  • Default properties for the text field of the PDF forms

    How can I set the default properties for the text field?  The creator of forms set of font sizes that are too large.

    Right-click on the field > use current properties as new default.

    It will keep the new settings until the next time that you do this. It is not specific to the document. Do it separately for each field type (text, button, etc.)

    On an existing form, you can select multiple fields. A pro tip, is that you don't have to close the properties to move from the field to the field to the field. Dungeon opens and work faster.

  • How can we make invisible static value in a text field to the OPA

    Hi all

    I have invisible static value in a text field in the OPA.

    For ex: field contains the value 100 while we manage the maintenance should not display the value 100 or make us the text as invisible field. whenever we submit the interview the value should be passed.

    I made the background color of the text in white field, but it reflects all the text fields. I need to make the text of the particular text as invisible field. Can someone give me a solution for it.

    Use two different attributes (the one that is indicated in the interview to the need - for example, as "the id selected user" or whatever the phrase is appropriate) and a different attribute, which is the mapped attribute.  The second attribute must not be on any screen of the interview (by thus "invisible" for the user).  Write a table of rules that concludes that the value of the attribute mapped on is EITHER static value or the selected/expected value according to some logic is appropriate to make a decision in your model of strategy.

  • Filled text field, clear the default checkbox

    I've seen a lot of question and scripts on when a box is checked, then the text field copies the value of the checkbox.

    What I'm trying to do is the opposite, i.e. If a text field is empty, the check box by default is checked; But if the text field is filled with what, check the check box disappears. Could someone help with scripts?

  • How can I add a text field for the main menu?

    I have a project with a menu.  He has a title.  I wanted to add an additional track on the menu, what I had done in an earlier draft.  I would have thought he would have intuitively obvious, as highlighting the existing title I and do a copy and paste.  However, I learned that nothing is intuitive with Premiere elements 12.  Can someone tell me how to get a 2nd title on my main menu?  I have done it before, but apparently did not write it and I was faced with that I falsely assumed would take me 30 seconds to accomplish.  Thank you.

    Rick

    Do you really need a second title for the page in the main menu and the selection of scene or you page fixed for your Adobe title in more than one line?

    I wonder

    I wanted to add an additional track on the menu, what I had done in an earlier draft.

    Is it possible that as soon as you use a theme which came with 'subtitle', as the trip/Beach Resort, not all do.

    Workaround for the title with more than one line of text can backfire on you. But you can try. Excerpt from my first items 13 on this blog

    0019 first Elements 13 movie Menu title question: multiple lines of text


    A first elements 13/13.1 user reports that, if it creates a 3 lines of title text for the main menu of the fake big screen theme in the customization area of Movie Maker project, these 3 lines of text eventually "encoded" in the project of reopening after that that there had been closed.

    We have confirmed this report and extended it to include this problem appears for 13 of Menus other than the fake Widescreen cinema. This issue is not seen in first items 12/12.1 and earlier versions.

    BEFORE REOPENING THE CLOSE SAVE

    Figure 1. Main menu of Spring Flower home with 3 lines of text, as seen before the closure of the Reopen

    AFTER THE REOPENED NARROW SAVE


    Figure 2. Spring Flower main Menu title initially with 3 lines of text, as seen from the closure of the Reopen



    The only way found so far to get the final product to have 3 lines of title text for menus in the final product is to customize the theme to the movie Menu in the customization of the Menu movie of the project area, do not save, close the project at this time and can do the burn to.


    Many variables were examined to explain this behavior. So far, no answer for why.

    If you are determined to use a particular theme that comes with the title menu and subtitle, look at the text of the Palette layers layers in the editing menu .psd file (.psd Editor could be Photoshop CS or higher).

    Regarding

    on my project last year that was the menu that I liked with 2 text fields, I have also got rid of the "arrow" shortly before the text that was the menu key.  Anyone know how I do that?  I can't figure that out now.

    Could you be more specific. But, for now, consider... If you Play All text, you double-click to open the text of the amendment, the deleted text, click OK. Play All disappeared. Sometimes, in page and removal of text "main menu" scene selection to the navigation button... double click on the button to open the changes to the text, delete text, press ENTER, and then bar spacing, and click OK.

    Please let us know if everything above the target you wanted to know.

    Thank you.

  • How to get back to 3 text fields in the footer

    When you open a new document pages, the footer contains three default text fields.  I have a document where I removed somehow 2 3 fields foot leaving only 1. I would like to add the other 2 fields in the footer, but I am unable to find a setting that would let me. My search terms are apparently useless because I can't find any thread on point in a search. Any ideas?

    You can not remove the tripartite fields in a header or a footer. If you visit the view menu: display invisible characters, you will probably discover tabs or spaces that forced each cell to the right in your footer. Just remove these external characteristics and you will restore the three cells to your footer.

  • How to set the text field for the credit card number?

    Hi, this seems like it should be a no-brainer in the Properties menu, but what is the best way to add a credit card number to a form?

    I have mine set up like a text field > category format: number > decimal: 0 > Style separator: (by default with the comma, but not what I want, of course)

    and the symbol > No.

    Is there an easy way to create 16 character space to the digits of the credit card?

    Thanks in advance

    Under Format, select special, then arbitrary mask and enter the mask: 9999 9999 9999 9999
