PDF document with the text field does not have to scroll down after being placed in InDesign

Hello. I have a PDF form that has a text box. If people type a lot of text in there, a scroll bar appears so that someone who reads the form allows to scroll up/down in this text box to read all the data.

I placed this PDF file in a new InDesign file. When I export a new PDF file, the text is still there, though, he is no longer scrollable. If I highlight the text in the box and drag my slider lower, I can highlight "invisible" text that matches the text that someone would normally scroll down to see.

Is there anyway I can 'keep' scrolling form PDF > Indesign > new PDF?

Original PDF form was made in InDesign. Thank you!

The PDF file that has been placed in ID loses all interactivity and form fields. There is no way to do what you want.

    Hi all

    }
    
    

    The problem is, it does not take the value that the user selects in the drop-down list and the text field. It takes the default value as "January" and the year is '2013' as these two values are given as selectedIndex:0 and editContents: "2013". I compared the coding with a few other scripts work as well, but it does not work. I added several alert boxes to check the value we get.

    In addition, search for it and change also does not work. Please help me on this. Thank you.

    Kind regards

    It is on the same computer.  The PC has the standard COMPUTER stuff.  VIper and they handle most of the firewall settings (windows).  I have turned them all off before installing.  I think it was a matter of execution engine.  I have no time to fight with LabView, so I uninstalled all LabView!  Then I made a new installation of the DVD.  This works.  I never install a patch of NOR without a week of free time!  In others, ever!  Whenever I do it, it takes me at least a day to get my operating environment!  Thanks for your time.  It is appreciated.

    I have 9, 1 pages in PDF files that are accessible and the need to combine them into 1 PDF file.  I tried adding, adding and the combine process of PDF files. The file created does not take my changes. The file created is partially accessible, but I have to re - the problems that I had fixed in the unique files. I need suggestions on what else can be done, if any. Using Acrobat pro XI.

    By habit, I tend to combine PDF files in the Page pane by right-clicking thumbnails then 'Insert of Pages'-> 'From File'. For me, this preserves the tags of these two documents, although the tags may have to be moved to the correct location (if I remember correctly the tags for inserted pages are put at the end of the tag structure, regardless of where the pages are inserted), if I put the tags in the document to insert into a container as a Section tag It makes the process easier. Travel set of tags in the right place is the only re-fixing that I remember having to do. What behavior you encounter?

  • images don't "move with the text" correctly when I have several columns

    I use 2 columns, have been inserting images in my text and chose 'move with the text' but when I have to go back and fix something, or add text over the images all move and do not stay with the text.  They start on their knees and move to the other columns and will not stay with the text.  In my view, this has to do with the use of columns, does anyone have any suggestions?

  • UCR-6002: the database specified does not have the minimum requirement to load the metadata repository.

    Hi all

    I want to install a test environment with the following software products:

    WebLogic Server 10.3.6

    WebCenter Capture 11.1.1.8.0

    WebCenter Imaging 11.1.1.8.0

    BPM 11.1.1.7.0

    SOA Suite 11.1.1.7.0

    Oracle Database Enterprise Edition Release 12.1.0.2.0 12 c

    I use the remote 11.1.1.8.0 to create the database schemas.

    When RCU checks the prerequisites, it comes up with a warning as follows:

    «The database you connect to, is one newer than the supported version.» See the matrix of certification for the supported DB versions".

    If I type 'ignore' on the message box, it stops the verification process will not continue. Also, if I type "Cancel" does the same thing.

    The error message displayed in the Message box is both below:

    UCR-6002: the database specified does not have the minimum requirement to load the metadata repository.

    UCR-6080: Global check prerequisites failed - requirement of verification for the specified database

    The database that you connect is a CDB that is not supported.

    Action taken:

    1. check again on the database character set and confirmed it is set up correctly for AL32UTF8

    2. the databases are supported for WebCenter 11.1.1.8.0 + 12.1.0.1, so the database version is supported.

    Hope someone knows what's going on.

    Thanks in advance.

    Try to create a plugable (PDB) database within the CBD and then rerun

    the UCR.

    May be restricted the RCU to install MDS and other schemas FMW the

    CBD, but rather in the PDB.

  • FlowFieldManager not 'compatible' with the text fields?

    Hi all.

    I'm making an icon to follow the end of a given text. A bit like the phoneLog done with the green phone icon next any number that you enter.

    I tried the substitution of the DrawText, but unfortunately after conditioning to the new line I don't have an X coordinated to begin to draw.

    That's what I would like to:

    +-----------++-----+

    | text 1234 | icon |

    +-----------++-----+

    After entering the text more:

    +--------------------++-----+

    | text 1234567890 | icon |

    +--------------------++-----+

    Unfortunately FlowFieldManager encapsulates the new line icon

    It seems that she's done this before and after each text field. If I have two icons, one after the other, they have a format horizontal, but at the moment where I have to add a textField, it is wrapped in a new line (are complemented by the icons) or icons are pushed to the next line (if the text box before the icons).

    So, how can I add this icon to track the length of the text?

    The problem here is that text fields normally tell their manager encompassing that they want to take the entire width.  FlowFieldManager who will respect and give them the entire width.

    You will need to customize the text field, replace the functions of layout and width and make sure he asks only the size that he actually need.

    If the text cannot be updated, and then you try to use rather than RichTextField LabelField.  LabelField asks only the width he needed.

    Sorry I can't give you any appropriate code because I have never done this.  I did not because from a user interface point of view I don't think it looks good.

    This mechanism can fail when the text field resumed more size on a width - fields are always "rectangular".

  • Calculation of amount on several text fields does not?

    Hello! I apologize if this question was asked before. I looked through the forums for a few hours, but has not found an answer that has helped me.

    My problem: I do a calculation of the mileage form. It is supposed to add up everything in the line of mileage and put a total in the total box, in a different area, multiply total mileage of a specific quantity and display the result in dollars. I, however, am stuck on the first part of the calculation.

    What I did: I've created a form to an existing document. I went to the box, I wanted to show the number of miles and right-click on it in form editing mode. I clicked on 'Properties' and went to the tab 'calculate '. I clicked on the option of radio "value is the sum of the following fields." I then select the fields I want to be added. I have them labeled as follows: MILES_1, MILES_2, and so on up to the MILES_31. I chose MILES_1 through MILES_31. Then I clicked on 'Close' and saved the document. This editing in Adobe Acrobat Pro (trial version) works fine, but when I edit in the preview player or Mac, no calculations are made. I checked the order of computation of field, and the only field in the order is the total mileage. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong or what else I should do.

    What I'm trying to do: I wish that all fields, MILES_1 thanks MILES_31 added together and the sum displayed in the total mileage and then this sum to be multiplied by a specific amount and display in another area.

    Apple saw the ruins of the PDF Forms. Never use it to open a PDF file with form

    fields.

    If it worked in Acrobat, it should work in Reader.

  • Why the text tool does not work?

    whenever I choose the text tool that doesn't work. It allows me to create the bar, but the curosor doesn't even blink. I type and its Blanck. I hit accept the test I typed shows on the layer, but not on the screen, I need help. I've even updated, reinstalled. I need help I am ready to throw my laptop. Please someone

    Is this a new problem with an old facility?

    Or a new facility and the Type of tool has never worked?

    What is the size of the image in pixels and resolution?  Something that sometimes happens is that people get the wrong units and I think they are pixel setting when it is in fact centimeters.  If you have a low resolution game, like the default 72 dpi, which can cause the tiny text, it might as well be invisible.  This is particularly problematic when the Type is set on Points.  To test simply do a new document with reasonable proportions.  that is 1000 x 1000 pixels, 300 dpi

    Another test is to select the text layer and use free transform, or zoom so you can see if you have a small bounding box.

    If this isn't the question and the text color is not the same as the background, then...

    First step is to reset the preferences.  (The relocation does not overwrite the preferences file).

    Also try resetting subject tools.

    Then uninstall Photoshop and use the cleaning tool before reinstalling.

  • The text tool does not work in Photoshop CC

    When I try to use the text tool, that it does nothing when I type even if the font size is 12, and the color is black on a white background, and then when I try to get out of the text tool a progress bar will appear that says "Record type" and the progress bar does not until 15 minutes later. After that, no text shows. I tried to move the text tool above where I have used it previously, and the cursor doesn't detect any text in the box.

    This is a brand new installation of photoshop, I did not any customizations to it.

    My operating system is a Mac with OS X 10.7.5.

    I already tried things:

    …………………………………………….

    -J' tried to uninstall and reinstall Photoshop CC and creative cloud.

    -J' tried to change the font size, color. Each took 15 minutes due to the type of rendering progress bar.

    -J' tried to change major fonts such as Verdana, Arial, etc..

    -J' did the steps on this page to troubleshoot fonts:

    http://helpx.Adobe.com/Photoshop/KB/troubleshoot-fonts-Photoshop-CS5.html

    It was the procedure on this page:

    S ' ensure that Photoshop is the most recent version.

    -Clear overview of the policies.

    -Delete the specified fonts known to cause trouble.

    -Clear cache fonts photoshop

    -Clear cache OS police

    -Try to remove everything except a font on the Mac and keep the rest in another folder.

    -Use their fonts test script.

    Now the police only that I have in my folder of Mac fonts is Arial.ttf

    I did all these things, and the problem still occurs. All other tools works fine for me! I need to use photoshop for graphics work, I need to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I found the problem! When I pressed 'File' > 'New' to make a new document, I typed in the 1000, but I'm used to the measures in pixels, not inches. The new facility was in inches lol. The Web was gigantic! Once I put it to a smaller size that the text tool worked great! I feel stupid, I over looked that.
