  You can define a field with strike and validate to prevent the user from changing the value of the field. First, set the field to multiline and 'Scroll long text' and the default value for the text to display in the field. Then add a custom script to strike which is:

  Custom keystroke script

  Event.RC = false;

  and to be complete, the validation script customized according to:

  Custom validation script

  If (event.value! == event.target.defaultValue) event.rc = false;

  These scripts will prevent the value to be changed, at least in Acrobat and Reader if JavaScript is enabled.

• Adjust the text in the form field

  How do you shrink to fit the text in the form field when you fill in a document?

• Enter the text for the form field and do to repeat in the following pages

  Hi - I'm working on an interactive form of 14 pages. There are two text fields that must appear on the bottom of each page.

  Anyone know if it is possible for the user to these fields in competition once and while the text automatically repeat on the following pages?

  I create the form in InDesign CS6 (I CC, but it runs like a turtle).

  Any help much appreciated! Thank you.

  Form fields with the same name will have the same value, so just name them

  Similarly.

  Duplicate a field on several pages is easily achievable in Acrobat, by the way.

  There is a built-in function that allows you to do when you right click on a shape

• Update database with several form fields with the same name

  If I've made good progress on my CF photo album project, but now I meet a problem.  Once I downloaded a collection of photos and them inserted in my database, I bring up a page that is actually an array containing the thumbnail of each image, some info on it and the description of the photo.

  The table is inside a < form > tag, and the description is a < textarea > tag.  I have many text boxes that I have pictures, so there may be any number (within reasonable limits).  I'd like to be able to type a description for each picture in each text box rather than having to do one at a time, and then click the button submit to update my file.

  Each text box has the same name, so I had the idea of adding a hidden form field that held the photo ID, then on the processing page, I might have a < cfloop >.  My problem is that I can not understand how to associate each photo with the corresponding description ID, especially if we consider that some of the descriptions may be empty.

  Is there a good way to do this?

  As you probably understand, giving all your textareas eponymous means that when the form is submitted, you get a value that is a list of the contents of each text box comma-delimited.  If none of the commas are typed in the text box, you have a problem.

  My preferred method is to include some sort of identifier as part of the name of the form field.  Since you have ID photo available, I would use those.  This would give your names textareas as description_111, description_112, etc.

  When the form is submitted, I loop through the form.fieldnames list.  If the first 12 characters are 'description_111', I can remore 12 characters to get the id.  I also have the content of the text box using the array notation.

• Forms to fill out and Distribution: to flatten author text but not the form fields

  OK people, first time posting on this forum, but certainly not my first time looking for answers!  I was quite managed with other issues if I think I myself stumped on this one.

  I created the form fillable 'generic' I'm going to use to distribute to various contacts for some upcoming projects that we will participate in.  Because each project will be different, instead of having to create a new form every time, I hope that with my base model form I can enter various information with the type writing tool and somehow to protect this information to be edit/delete while allowing my contacts to enter their information in the form fields.

  I tried to apply the different variants of security features, but the downside of this is that it does not "distribute" my form so that it can be track with Adobe Tracker.  The only way I can successfully distribute this form for the masses and track responses is if all the security settings of the document are disabled.

  I hope that this logic all how I explain it.  Because the information (not the form fields) on the document sent to the changes each week, I was hoping there would be one easier way other than creating a form to complete for each new.  I'm not an expert of Actions, but it would be possible to create an Action that would "flatten" the text of the type writer only?  That would at least prevent third parties to manipulate or remove information that I placed on the document.

  This free tool based on JavaScript for Acrobat is what you need: http://www.uvsar.com/projects/acrobat/flattener/

  The typewriter tool creates a type of text box, so that you would select just this box to flatten.

• Is it possible to delete the default text in a form field onclick?

  I am trying to add javascript to clear the default text in a form field using onclick?  Any idea?

  Thank you!

  Rather than enter a default text in the field, get rid of any script, you have for the field and use the following custom format script:

  Custom Format script

  If (! event.value) event.value = "your default text goes here.";

  The string that you specify here will be displayed when the field is empty and the text that is entered in the fields, in the opposite case. It will also disappear when the field is selected, which is what you want.

• All the form fields do not paste from one file to another

  I use Adobe Acrobat DC on OS 10.10.3.

  I have a .pdf file containing form fields set up on what I want to use it as a 'model '.

  One machine I can copy the form fields and put in a new .pdf file and it works fine, but on any other machine, I tried it on it is not. On the other machines when I copy the fields of the form about 75 percent of stick them in the new .pdf.

  Is there a setting/preference on what I should check or would be - something else causing this problem?

  Thank you very much for the help.

  Replacing the old pages with the new in Acrobat is the standard way to do what you want. The fields of forms, links, code, bookmarks, comments, page/document, metadata, etc. are preserved.

  Hello.

  I guess that these areas use the option 'allow formatting of the rich text.

  Thus, it is not Properties: aspect which resulted in implementing in the form of text, thetext in the form field"' bar (CTRL-E or CMD-E).

  Uncheck the option 'Allow rich text formatting' to return to this behavior.

• StructCount bug when deleting a key of the FORM field

  Help, please.  I can't understand what I'm doing wrong.

  When I try to remove a key from the FORM field, the StructCount to the extent of the FORM remains unchanged, even if the key doesn't seem to be within the scope of the FORM any longer.  This is not the case when I create a struct in the scope of VARIABLES.  I enclose the code I used to test this.

  Is this a bug with ColdFusion?  Is there a fix / patch for this?  I use Coldfusion Enterprise version 8,0,0,176276.

  Unfortunately, I don't think you can avoid it as it seems to be a problem with the underlying FormScope class.  You could wrap your alternative 'counting' code in a cffunction.  Which would keep at least the logic in one place:
