Name of ToolTip to display in the form to fill out?

I'm new here ! Looking for help on how I can make a text field has a name that will be displayed for the user to know what information is needed in the field, but will not display the name of the ToolTip. I searched and found that it is possible with a Javascript. However I'm not fimiliar at all with this... but can quite understand it with the help please. I use acrobat 9 standard to create my form.

You can set the actual ToolTip text on the general tab of the field properties dialog box.

If you want the text to display in the actual field that disappears when the field is selected and does not print, you can use the following custom Format script:

// Custom Format script for text field
if (!event.value) {
    event.value = "Instructional text goes here.";
    event.target.display = display.noPrint;
} else {
    event.target.display = display.visible;
}

If you also set the ToolTip text, this code can be changed to:

// Custom Format script for text field
if (!event.value) {
    event.value = event.target.userName;
    event.target.display = display.noPrint;
} else {
    event.target.display = display.visible;
}

  • Why information from individual PDF files that were created by using the form to fill out is changing when I try to combine the files?

    I have several pdf documents created using a form to fill out.  When I try to create a combined PDF information either is removed from all pages after the first page or all the pages after the fact look page 1 as duplicate page 1.  what I am doing wrong?

    The problem is that these files have fields with the same name in them, thus

    When you merge them they become copies of each other and of all their

    the values are the same.

    To avoid it you must either rename the fields before you merge the files

    or flatten, converting them to static content.

  • How to stop scrolling in the forms to fill out?

    Can someone please please please tell me if I can stop the form to have a scroll bar?  When I create the form from scratch, it happens, but when I create from a template, is not.  I want to create from scratch but do not know how the section of form to fill out to keep getting more content is added without a scroll bar.

    Hi melissab58588649,

    Could if it you please let me know which version of Acrobat you are using.

    You may double click on a specific form field and must open "properties > Options tab '."

    Then, check 'option of scrolling long text' and 'Multiline' options to allow to type as many characters as you want.

    Let me know if you wish for the same options or something.

    Kind regards

  • With the help of professionals to create the form to fill out that can save a user of reader

    New to Acrobat Professional. Used to create an evaluation of performance with areas to be completed and made available on our intranet.  All employees have just the free reader.  I assumed they would be able to complete and save on their own car because they are may not be able to finish in one sitting. Form requires supervisor to complete a section too, so was hoping they could send to them to complete.  Isn't this possible?

    You have a little more. Your form open: Advanced > extend features in Adobe Reader.

    On android devices it will not show the Signature field.

  • Is it possible for someone to insert a logo when you fill out a form to fill out? I'm looking for all the options under the button 'add a text field.

    It is not possible within a text field, either. If they have Acrobat, they can use the built-in under Tools - editing content Add Image tool.

    If they drive XI or higher, they can use a button form field you will need to set up for them, but the image must be in PDF format.

    Hello Nefertari,

    You try to view more characters in these areas?

    Each of these locations is plugable using custom plugin extensions.

    For example, you can go into extensions/config/CustomPluginExtensions file and add the following nodes under the node FormatPlugins.

    I think that the default values for the sites are set to 50 characters, so I had to be up to 100 characters (note NameMaxLength = parameter in the attribute FactoryURL 100).

    It will be applicable to all specifications, if you need something more specific, you will have to create your own class where you can check the type of technique.

    Make your own judgment in what concerns how enough will be the look on the screen after you increase the length to a large number, but you can always control the formatting in your own class.

  • I'm filling out a form that is available on a site. When I click on the option to fill out and submit the form 'online' a pdf document is displayed in chrome with the following text "to display all of the content of this document, you need a later version

    I'm filling out a form that is available on a site. When I click on the option to fill out and submit the form 'online' a pdf document is displayed in chrome with the following text

    «To display all of the content of this document, you need a later version the viewer PDF.» You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader from www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html for further support, go to www.adobe.com/support/products/acrreader.html"

    Needless to day, I installed the latest version. I even reinstalled using the link in the message, but nothing helped. Whenever I click on the link to go forward, I get the same message. Question: (i) is it my PC/software (Vista), (ii) is the site where I'm trying to submit the form, or (iii) is it the software acrobat reader. Note that I used successfully the last version to fill out and sign forms.

    It is none of them. It's Chrome, which is ignoring Adobe Reader and showing the message.

    Solution: just save the document (with the message) to your desktop. Then open it in Adobe Reader. The 'real' should then display.

  • Of the reasons why the contents of a form to fill out on-line can be displayed or printed?

    I created a form of 2 pages on Adobe Acrobat XPro. I sent it to specific people, and they filled, saved and sent it back. I am able to view what they typed in my monitor only, when I click on the field, but it will not print the content. Of the reasons why the contents of a form to fill out on-line can be displayed or printed?

    What you describe is typical of a PDF form that has been used and corrupted by the application on a Mac. An outdated version of Acrobat or Reader will not cause this. A less likely possibility is also corrupt forms PDF, Microsoft Reader, but in different ways than the preview.

    OK, what you can do is to rename all the copies (for example, Text1 to Text1a), unchangeable value of the copies and use the custom script next to validate the main field (Text1):

    Copy the value of this field in double fields

    getField("Text1a").value = event.value;

    This may seem obvious, but if you want to receive data from a form, and then place it in the form. A hidden form field with the title page and the text of your Web page will send these data on the form submission.
