Missing menu items Javascript on Acrobat 9 Standard

I tried to get into some more advanced forms in Acrobat JS coding, and I'm running into a bit of a roadblock to access javascript tools.  Specifically, I keep seeing references to Javascript menu items under the Advanced menu, but my Acrobat doesn't seem to have these at all.  Also, I can not open the console of the debugger JS/avec Ctrl-J, but it opens if I put in a syntactically incorrect javascript statement and try to run it (in a form field, etc.).

Anyone has any ideas how to fix this?  I found references online to which is a problem if Acrobat Reader is also installed on the same machine (it was), so I removed which, but the problem persists.  I can't get javascript into an individual field, but I can't add a script to the level of the document at all.

Thank you

It's funny. Yes, I meant Standard and not Pro. This is a really stupid restriction because it is advisable to place as much code as possible at the level of the document JavaScripts. A workaround for the standard is to put them in the opening event of the Page of the original page. If there is more than 1 page, it is best to add a simple check to see if all the variables/functions are already defined before they are initialized. If it's not supposed to, I could show an example. But it is not required, just a good idea.

  • Missing menu items Photoshop CS5

    When my business has improved my Photoshop CS5 (version 6.0.1) a few years ago, I noticed that some menu items were no longer available. I didn't think too much of it, but I just finished watching a tutorial and they showed one of these options for CS5. The two I can think of to are Image = > Adjust = > Gamma and tone dark / light tones. How can I not, and how to bring them back? I've looked everywhere but can't find it in one of the forums.

    I don't know what you have. I've owned Photoshop since v 5.0.2 (1998) and anything marked CS5 is not version 6, it has the 12 version.

    Reference: history of version of Adobe Photoshop - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia has the dates and numbers.

  • missing menu items

    After I updated my iTunes to version I noticed that when I click on my name in the menu I see more options to buy or wish list.

    If I create an empty library, so it's the same story.

    If I create a new user and open my existing library, then all is well.

    Is there anything I can do to get it working again? As I said, it was fine on the latest version. If I go to the store and choose one of these options in the links on this page and then they work fine.

    Is there anything I can do to get it working again?

    Make sure that you are connected to the iTunes Store using your login password and Apple. In the case, iTunes does not know which information to display.

  • Missing menu items in the menu "file"? Lack of option 'Place. '... » ?

    Hello!

    I use photoshop daily for editing images and thumbnails for Youtube and videos, but recently I noticed that the 'Place' in the file Menu option has disappeared? I checked to see if I have accidentally hidden the visibility of 'Place' in the file Menu, but it does not even appear in the hidden Menu Settings? I don't know how it happened, but I think it may be a plugin problem, because I can't find a trace of it within the Photoshop application! Any help would be fantastic!

    Thank you!

    Sure you are using right now embedded instead if you want to perform the same action as before. and they added that the place related option now as well so if you make a change to this image/file outside the document then it will update in all places its used to record the repetition of the process. Who help me?

  • Folder level Javascript executes the Menu item, but not button - need a work around... Help, please

    I have a JavaScript that contains a function of confidence with a SOAP operation inside the confidence function.

    This function is inside a folder level script.

    When calling this function to a menu item, it works fine.

    When I try to add and call this function from a button or a Signature field to the title of JavaScript execution when signed, it will not work and I get an error message.

    What I'm missing and there is a work around, I need to run it from a button or a signature field?

  • JavaScript: How do you pass the currently active doc to a dialogue in a menu item?

    I use Adobe Acrobat 11.0 Standard on Windows 7, and I have a problem with the menu item that I create.  The menu item calls a dialog box that prompts the user to select a page in the active document.  The problem is, I can't find a way to send the currently active document in the dialog box.  I went through the rest of the documentation, did some research on Google and here in the Adobe forums, but do not have whatever it is turned upward.  The AcroJS API gives the following solution (which is under app/methods/execDialog):

    This function attaches the Doc object to the dialog box, then past the dialog box to the app.execDialog method. The dialog4 object and this function may be at the level of the document.

    function dotheDialog (dialog, doc)

    {

    Dialog.doc = doc;

    retn var = app.execDialog (dialog)

    }

    Finally, the following script can be run an action of mouse-to the top, for example.

    dotheDialog (dialog4, this);

    I did this exact thing, but in the dialog box, the value of this.numPages still comes out as indefinite, indicating that the current document has not yet been adopted.  My own code looks like this:

    function dotheDialog (dialogue, thisDoc) {}

    Dialog.doc = thisDoc;

    retn var = app.execDialog (dialog);

    }

    app.addMenuItem({)

    cName: 'Testbox Dialogue. "

    cParent: "change."

    cExec: "dotheDialog (templateDialogue, this);"

    });

    where templateDialogue is the name of my own dialog, rather than dialog4.  I'm not sure of what concerns the variable retn that they declare in the documentation, but I have tried with and without this part, and it doesn't seem to make a difference.  Does anyone know how to do this?

    The reference to the document is a property of the dialog box, so that you access the inside like this:

    This.doc

    And if you want to access the number of pages, like this:

    this.doc.numPages

  • Acrobat automaton - execute menu item "HTML Web Page"

    I am trying to automate Acrobat of VS 2010 to convert PDFs to html format.

    I know I have to use acrobatApp->MenuItemExecute(...); , but I have not found the name of the "Web Page HTML" menu item which should be passed as argument. Any help?

    It is unlikely that it would help because this menu item displays a dialog box. If automate you, you will automate all display of the dialog box.

  • Missing the Menu item in the import Panel?

    I am using LR3 for over a year - last version 3.6. Without apparent reason, the menu item "Do the second copy" no longer displays in the import Panel. Imported files are copied to the specified location the last time that the item was available.

    When you right-click on one of the headers Panel on the right side of the input dialogue, is "File management" checked? If not, click it or click "show all."

  • Button action JavaScript blocks Acrobat

    Hello

    I work for a company with multiple versions of Acrobat Standard and Pro, from 9 to 11.  We sell software that organizes the construction documents.  This software is written in code .aspx and pulls from a Microsoft Access database that lives on a server, (PDF, for the most part) files in a windows folder structure, related to access.  We 'hotlink' many of these documents by using the buttons in pdf files.  We create a button, add a mouse up-> run a JavaScript action pointing to the URL for the destination web we take this link for access.  For example, if we want to access a page created from our .aspx code, from within a pdf file, in the menu edit JavaScripts we add "app.launchURL("..) ". /.. /.. /.. documents_details.asp? ("BLDG = SOWP & Div = 26 & DivName = ELECTRIC / Sec = 265100 & SecName inner = % 20Lighting & Page = accessories & Tag = C1 ', true); ».  The series of /... /... are the number of deep layers in the structure of the pdf files, the link is on and the code page file lives in.  So in this case, the pdf file is 4 subfolders in the code page file lives in.

    So, it's the substance of what we do.  My problem is that in Adobe Acrobat Pro and Pro X XI, whenever I try to create a button or paste into a button of a previous document, adobe hangs and eventually crashes.  I can't either create, change or move buttons.  We have created these fines since acrobat 7 without problem until versions more recent.  With Acrobat 9 Pro, creation and Paste buttons works most of the time.  After you move a button of a part of the PDF to another, it hangs for 10 seconds before free up and allow me to work again.  Sometimes it hangs indefinitely, and I have to restart Acrobat.

    Can anyone help with these questions?  We use mainly business image Windows 7 Professional, computer laptop Dell latitude E64xx series processors i5 - i7, 4 GB of ram.  I tried this on own complete installs of Windows 7 Professional as well with the difference, if not our brand image.

    This is probably due to the way that Acrobat will automatically reorganize the tab order that fields are added and changed. If you have access to 11 Acrobat, you can disable this option via a preference of forms: Edit > preferences > forms > tab order automatically adjust when you change the fields
