• PDF form field calculates the AVERAGE incorrectly

  I have a PDF form field which is defined to calculate the AVERAGE of the other 4 fields. Each of these other areas has its validation configured to allow only the values from 1 to 3.
  
  The average field is dividing the total by 4, even if a person completes only 2 fields. I thought THAT AVERAGE would count only the fields that have a value in them. But it is to see which ones are empty as containing a 0, even if it is an invalid value for this field.
  
  How can I fix? The client really wants to have up to 4 fields and an average of only those that are filled. I thought it was what average was supposed to do.
  
  Is there a way to tell Acrobat to ignore fields if their value is less than 1?

• All I want to do is to fill in PDF Forms. Which is the cheapest product should I buy?

  All I want to do is to fill in PDF Forms. Which is the cheapest product should I buy? All I have now is Adobe Reader 9 (which I think was downloadable for free) and allows me to edit PDF files.

  Thanks in advance for pointing me in the right direction!

  The product cheaper Adobe's Acrobat Standard. It will allow you to create, fill and save PDF Forms. Acrobt Pro has several editing features, but it is not clear to me if you need.

  Reader allows you to fill in PDF forms if they have interactive form fields. Not all PDF files that look like forms. It will save a completed form if it has been enabled for reader. This allows the reader to do the things that he normally can't. You can activate Reader a form with Acrobat Pro or Standard.

• In a PDF form fields

  I created a form using tables in InDesign CS4 and exported in PDF format. Open the PDF file in Acrobat Professional 9 and created for my clients to enter form fields.

  The problem occurs when they open the PDF and finish type, and then try to save the file. The file is opened from their desktop and then typed using acrobat Reader. Then, once they're trying to save that they receive a dialog box that gives only the option to print, cancel or save under vacuum. Which has not any information they typed in the fields.

  What's not?

  You must enable the PDF for Reader users until they can save.

  In Acrobat 8 Pro, the option is under Advanced > enable usage rights in Adobe Reader. Not sure if they have moved or not but look about her.

• Design of a PDF form to fill-in the drop-down list

  Design of a PDF form - how we copy the content of the 'text' of a drop-down list box to paste into "boxes" of several drop-down lists for the same shape?

  You can't copy and paste the values of the range of object definition, but you can copy and paste the object in its entirety... who would not do the same?

• Remove or disable the duplication of value for the PDF form field

  Hello

  How can I remove or disable replication of field value in a PDF form? Say, if you enter the address on a single page, it is duplicated at the address on another page. For some reason whoever created this form, made a mistake of linking to the wrong field. Say so a management office address is bound to the address of the owner.

  We have acrobat 8 and the latest version X.

  Thank you

  Make sure that the fields do not have the same name.

• Combine PDF forms without fusion of the fields?

  I have nearly 60 applications that were sent to me by individuals, each in a form that they downloaded from my site, I created.  I need to combine these files into a single document that can be numbered from end to end.  When I'm going to merge the files into a single PDF document, I get the following message:

  "The form fields with the same name in the merged documents are now merged into one. If you want that these values are unique, then you need to create a PDF Package instead of merge the files. »

  Of course, when the documents are combined, the information of each candidate are replaced by the first information of the document.  There is NO WAY I can go through and rename the form fields in 100 documents, and yet I need all these forms in a single document so that I can add page numbers, etc.  Help!
  
  David

  If you do not need to retain the form fields, you can flatten each document before merge you them. You can do it with JavaScript code in a batch sequence:

  // Flatten this document
  flattenPages();
  

  Note that flattening is not reversible, in order to work with copies of the originals.

• How to create a script for the calculation of the VO2max using text on a pdf form field values.

  I'm trying to create a script that calculates the VO2max based on user input in several text fields.

  My form is set up so that the user can enter values in the 4 fields of text:

  1 weight = weight in kilograms

  2. age = age in years

  3 time = time to walk 1 mile in decimal

  4. the heart rate (HR) = heart rate recovery immediately after you have finished walking 1 mile

  The VO2max equation that I use is:

  VO2max = 132.853 - (0.1692 * weight)-(0.3877 * Age) + (6,315) - (3.2649 * time)-(0.1565 * HR)

  After the user enters values in 4 text fields, I want the text of VO2max field automatically calculate the above equation and display the result to the user so that the user doesn't have to get all those numbers into a calculator.

  Any suggestions on how to write the script?

  Assuming that your domain names are what you entered in the formula, you can use the simplified field notation:

  132.853 - (0.1692 * weight)-(0.3877 * Age) + (6,315) - (3.2649 * time)-(0.1565 * HR)

  If you want the value to display only after al the data fields are complete you need to use a JavaScript calculation:

  function GetField (cName) {}
  oField var = this.getField (cName);
  if(oField == null) app.alert ("field of error for access to the" cName + "\nPlease verify the name of the field.", 1, 0 ");
  return oField;
  }

  var weight = GetField ("Weight");
  var Age is GetField ("Age");.
  var time = GetField ("Time");
  var h = GetField ("HR");

  Event.Value = "";
  If (Weight.value! = 0 & Age.value! = 0 & Time.value! = 0 & HR.value! = 0) {}
  Event.Value = 132.853 - (0.1692 * Weight.value)-(0.3877 * Age.value) + (6,315) - (3.2649 * Time.value)-(0.1565 * HR.value);
  }

• Prevent printing of PDF forms and masking of the useless message boxes.

  I have a PDF form and I need to avoid printing this PDF form, if the fields are empty.

  To change my form, I use Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES3.

  On how can this be done is written here: http://Forms.stefcameron.com/2008/04/13/prevent-printing-PDF-forms-in-Acrobat-8/

  The only thing that I need more than this article - is to remove the cancelled 'Impression' message box.

  So, if anyone knows how, please help me.

  Hello

  the XFA specification does not describe not a way to remove the error message for the item to validate, so it seems to be impossible.

• What is the correct syntax to a PDF form file name in the subject line of an e-mail. Doc Javascript?

  The name of the file is not part of any form field. The name of the file will be also unique whenever the form is used. I also want the name of the file that will be followed by the expression 'evidence' returned by the customer, as in:

  Topic: Proof of Papa Murphys SALEM 8 - 30.pdf returned by the customer

  Here is my existing script, but I need to know the syntax to get the PDF file name added in the subject line.

  this.mailDoc ({bUI: true, cTo: "[email protected]", bassujetti: "proof returned by the customer", CMSG: "attached is the signed evidence.}) Please send to the graphics dept '});

  I'm not very familiar with Javascript so have tried to reconstitute it.

  Unfortunately, there is only so much you can google to get a working solution, I would suggest that you get at least a little familiar with JavaScript (there are a lot of good tutorials and books available). If you want an introduction to Acrobat JavaScript, have a look here: Beginning JavaScript for Adobe Acrobat

  There is a property of the document object that returns the name of the file. You can read the property of Doc.documentFileName here: DC Acrobat SDK Documentation

  In the simplest implementation, you can use this to enter the file name in the subject line:

  this.mailDoc({bUI: true, cTo: "[email protected]", cSubject: this.documentFileName,  cMsg: "Attached is the signed proof. Please forward to the graphics dept"});
  

  If you want to add more information that just the file name, you will need to assemble your subject line by using variable elements and string constants. Something like this works:

  this.mailDoc({bUI: true, cTo: "[email protected]", cSubject: "The filename is " + this.documentFileName,  cMsg: "Attached is the signed proof. Please forward to the graphics dept"});
  

• How to edit PDF form fields after registration

  I am very new for PDF forms and thought I was getting better.  I'm create forms of Word documents and need to make frequent changes to the PDF form after that I have recorded because I'm still learning.  I thought I read somewhere that you should be able to change the properties of a field after saving a copy, but that did not work.  I forgot to uncheck "Ahmed multi field" and the need to set in my text boxes but I can't change.  I continue to recreate the formula over and over again on the Word doc.

  Hi Ally1286,

  Save a copy, it is required to change the form when you have distributed the form or registered as a Reader extended PDF. In this case, if you want to add scrolling functionality to a tool to "Prepare the form" field then go in (in DC) to the title of the Toolbox on the right.

  

  On this screen, select the file and click Start. Double-click on the field and go to the 'Options' tab check the appropriate box.

  Let me know if it works for you.

• No data found in report csv or pdf on first loading of the page

  No data found in report csv output on the first load of the page. Report appears on the page, but no data is available in csv or pdf output. I still need to send the page and then it shows the data in the downloads. The page contains a form (read-only) with a report that refers to 4 page elements by using something like the following:
  
  and b.employee_no = v ('P5_EMPLOYEE_NO')
  and c.fisc_year_pk = v ('P5_FISC_YEAR_PK')
  and b.job_class = v ('P5_JOB_CLASS')
  and b.organization = v ('P5_ORGANIZATION')
  
  Yet once again, report to page appears except there is no data in the downloads. Can someone help me solve this problem? I'm under Oracle APEX 4.2.1 in Oracle database 11 g 2.
  
  Thank you.

  Sounds like a question of classic session state.

  You must eat the page elements using calculations of page rendering to ensure they are set to session state.

  Or if the download is triggered by a button, you should check that the elements of the page are subject to session state, perhaps via an action of PL/SQL.

• Form Acrobat on Ipad - form field to open the photo camera and use in the field?

  If I use a form acrobat on an Ipad can I put a required field to open the camera, take a picture and put the picture in the field?

  It is possible, but not with the player for iOS. The PDF Viewer only for iOS, I know it can be done with is Expert PDF of Readdle. You can configure a button with one disposition other than 'Label Only' and use the JavaScript code following the mouse upward in the event of the button:

  Script mouse upwards

  event.target.buttonImportIcon ();

  It will allow you to take a picture or use an image from a photo library.
