Text fields for export in CS4

I believe that it is possible to create and export text fields for the completion of a PDF file but can't find this feature in my (albeit) version of InDesign CS4. Does anyone know if it is something that only became available in CS5 go?

Grateful for any help.

Michael

CS6 forward.

  • How can I add a text field for the main menu?

    I have a project with a menu.  He has a title.  I wanted to add an additional track on the menu, what I had done in an earlier draft.  I would have thought he would have intuitively obvious, as highlighting the existing title I and do a copy and paste.  However, I learned that nothing is intuitive with Premiere elements 12.  Can someone tell me how to get a 2nd title on my main menu?  I have done it before, but apparently did not write it and I was faced with that I falsely assumed would take me 30 seconds to accomplish.  Thank you.

    Rick

    Do you really need a second title for the page in the main menu and the selection of scene or you page fixed for your Adobe title in more than one line?

    I wonder

    I wanted to add an additional track on the menu, what I had done in an earlier draft.

    Is it possible that as soon as you use a theme which came with 'subtitle', as the trip/Beach Resort, not all do.

    Workaround for the title with more than one line of text can backfire on you. But you can try. Excerpt from my first items 13 on this blog

    0019 first Elements 13 movie Menu title question: multiple lines of text


    A first elements 13/13.1 user reports that, if it creates a 3 lines of title text for the main menu of the fake big screen theme in the customization area of Movie Maker project, these 3 lines of text eventually "encoded" in the project of reopening after that that there had been closed.

    We have confirmed this report and extended it to include this problem appears for 13 of Menus other than the fake Widescreen cinema. This issue is not seen in first items 12/12.1 and earlier versions.

    BEFORE REOPENING THE CLOSE SAVE

    Figure 1. Main menu of Spring Flower home with 3 lines of text, as seen before the closure of the Reopen

    AFTER THE REOPENED NARROW SAVE


    Figure 2. Spring Flower main Menu title initially with 3 lines of text, as seen from the closure of the Reopen



    The only way found so far to get the final product to have 3 lines of title text for menus in the final product is to customize the theme to the movie Menu in the customization of the Menu movie of the project area, do not save, close the project at this time and can do the burn to.


    Many variables were examined to explain this behavior. So far, no answer for why.

    If you are determined to use a particular theme that comes with the title menu and subtitle, look at the text of the Palette layers layers in the editing menu .psd file (.psd Editor could be Photoshop CS or higher).

    Regarding

    on my project last year that was the menu that I liked with 2 text fields, I have also got rid of the "arrow" shortly before the text that was the menu key.  Anyone know how I do that?  I can't figure that out now.

    Could you be more specific. But, for now, consider... If you Play All text, you double-click to open the text of the amendment, the deleted text, click OK. Play All disappeared. Sometimes, in page and removal of text "main menu" scene selection to the navigation button... double click on the button to open the changes to the text, delete text, press ENTER, and then bar spacing, and click OK.

    Please let us know if everything above the target you wanted to know.

    Thank you.

  • text field for class stage access

    Hey,.

    A simple access of class issue:



    I have a dynamic text field on my stage, name the instance: "lives_txt."

    I want to fill this field in my Document class 'Ball.as '.



    Then in my Ball.as class I tried: parent.lives_txt.text = String (life);

    where: var public life: int = 3;



    I get an error: access of possibly undefined property lives_mc through a reference with static type flash.display:DisplayObjectContainer.



    What I am doing wrong?



    Thank you

    Yes, I made a typo in the original post (now edited)

    lives_txt. Text = String (life); Could not access it.

    MovieClip (root).lives_txt.text = String (lives); Is what I was looking for!

  • Problem of text selection in the text field for entry in the emulator

    I'm having a problem of text selection in a text field when I run my application in the emulator Playbook. Let me see if I can expose the problem here:

    1. The field in question is a classic text, text with an integrated in police entry field. The domain is in a SWC and referenced in another FILE.
    2. The code is set up such that when a user clicks the field function is called to highlight all the text. The code is more or less as follows:
    thisField.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onFieldClick);
    
    private function onFieldClick(event:MouseEvent):void
    {
       var selectedField:TextField = event.target as TextField;
       selectedField.setSelection(0, selectedField.text.length);
    }
    

    The problem I'm having is that when I try clicking on the emulator, the text field in 'domain' is sometimes selected as expected, sometimes not. When the text is not selected as expected the cursor always appears in the field and the Playbook keyboard slides up by below. What is particularly problematic, that's what often happens, is that the whole scene moves upward on 10px when it is clicked on the ground. If I try to click on the same ground once again, another change to the top of 10px or so, etc..

    So why the text not properly selected and why the scene evolves upwards?

    I realize that more information may be required from me to correctly solve this problem, but if someone has all understand why this may be the case, I would be happy to learn from him.

    Thank you

    David

  • How to set the text field for the credit card number?

    Hi, this seems like it should be a no-brainer in the Properties menu, but what is the best way to add a credit card number to a form?

    I have mine set up like a text field > category format: number > decimal: 0 > Style separator: (by default with the comma, but not what I want, of course)

    and the symbol > No.

    Is there an easy way to create 16 character space to the digits of the credit card?

  • engaging multiple values to a text field for a button

    I have a form that has several buttons that uses the items.push (command/script/EC) that you have to put some text in a text field.  People are asking now that they can put several selections from the button in the field.  Can someone point me in the right direction, or suggest a way to do it?

    I have attached a screenshot.  I clicked the button on the left to view features of the buttons and right I already have something of the key and he was placed in the text field.  I would like to be able to place several things in the field of the key even if possible.Screen shot 2011-01-19 at 12.14.18 PM.png

    You could change the code to:

    If {(response)

    Get a reference to the text field

    var f = getField ("competency");

    Add the selected value field, separated by a carriage return (except if the field is empty)

    f.Value = f.value? f.Value + "\r" + elements [answer]: [answer] points;

    } else {}

    App.Alert ("You have not selected an element.", 1);

  • Acrobat Pro DC: need help to bind the text fields for text overflow

I did some research but have only found solutions for older versions of Acrobat, if instructions are essentially useless. Please and thank you!

    I did it! You have to edit the custom script typo and enter in this:

    this.getField ("name of the overflow field goes in here") .setFocus ();

    Only problems I ran into is that you can't have fields bound, and he cannot have special characters or spaces in the name of the field.

  • How to format a text field for credit card numbers?

    OK, I found this conversation, http://forums.adobe.com/message/3598185, who gave a useful overview and I adapted the code appearing in to make sure that the user types in a 16-digit number, and he told them to just do it if they do not.

    Here's my problem:

    With the code that appears, I can either get a unique 16 digit string (e.g.: 1234567890123456), or I have to do the user to manually type in the spaces to get the usual format of the CC (1234 5678 9012 3456).

    What I hope is a code that will allow me to allow the user to just type in 16 continuous digits, but which will then display that entry into the format expected. (So user 1234567890123456 types, but the field when they tab or click out of it will show 1234 5678 9012 3456)

    Here is the code I have so far (as I said, almost word for Word copied from the link above):

    On the Format tab, under Custom Script Format:

    function checkFormat (s) {}

    If (! s) return true;

    var r =]

    / ^ \d{16}$/

    ];

    Return AFExactMatch (are, s);

    }

    On the Format tab, under typing a Script custom:

    (function () {}

    If {(event.willCommit)

    var isValid = checkFormat (event.value);

    If (! isValid) {}

    App.Alert ("Please enter a valid credit card number without spaces or dashes. 16-digit", 1);

    Event.RC = false;

    }

    }

    })();

    I'm sorry it's so simplistic. Although I rooted around in other languages (HTML, C++) programming, so I'm not a complete noob, I don't know anything about Java at all...

    Thanks in advance!

  • Custom for Lat/Long text field format

    I am new to the creation of PDF files and did not JavaScript for 10 years.

    I was hoping that someone would be able to provide the custom format script required format a text field for Lat/Long in DMS (e.g. 70 ° 12' 34 "W).

    Short, someone at - it a custom format script I could go and change?

    Thanks in advance!

    Try calling the function shown below in the latitude or custom Format script longitude field. This function is intended to be placed in the form of script at the level of the document.

    As a custom Format to the text box script, use the following:

    For Longitude field

    dd_to_dms (true);

    -OR-

    For Latitude field

    dd_to_dms (false);

    I was liberal with the comments in the hope of equivocation. What I have not done is a kind of data validation. The field entry is supposed to be a number that makes sense (for example, to +/-180 for longitude, +/-90 for latitude). You can add a custom script to strike to limit the entry of a number and a Validation script to check its value. He rounds as second to the second, but this could be changed if you need fractional part for seconds. Post again if you have any questions.

    function dd_to_dms (isLong) {}

    Custom Format script for text acroform field
    Convert lat/long values from decimal to degrees, Minutes, seconds
    ' DDD.dddd-> () [DD] D [M] I S [S] "N | S | E | W
    isLong: latitude, longitude = true = false

    Field blank if no entry
    If (! event.value) {}
    Event.Value = "";
    return;
    }

    Get the field as a number entry
    var val = + event.value;

    var cd, t, degrees, minutes, seconds;

    Determine what cardinal to display
    If (isLong) {}
    CD = (val< 0)="" "w"="" :="">
    } else {}
    CD = (val< 0)="" "s"="" :="">
    }

    To make the number positive
    Val = Math.abs (val);

    degrees = part of the input value
    degrees = val | 0;

    Download fractional part
    t = val 1.0%;

    minutes = fully part of (fractional part * 60)
    t = t * 60;
    minutes = t | 0;

    seconds = fully part of (the fractional part of previous * 60)
    t = t % 1.0;
    seconds = (t * 60) | 0;

    Display in the field
    Event.Value = degrees + '\u00b0' + minutes + "'"+ seconds + "\" "+ cd;»

  • How can can add text fields in the form automatically pdf document?

    I use Adobe Acrobat X (10.1.3) installed on Windows 7 to create pdf forms. My document is very similar to a "lined paper A4 notebook.

    I want to add the text field for each row of lined notebook, so people will be able to write what they want line by line.

    As my document has 20 lines in each page, and a total of 64 pages, I won't add these fields one by one. (drawing of rectangles with precision and aligning each other, assigning separate 'field name' to ensure solid mounting.)

    Property 'Set the Multiple field' within the right - click cause misalignment during 5-6 lines statement on the other.

    You have any suggestions or work around I can receive?

    See Doc.addField. If there is a model for the positions lines on each page, then you can generate the positions in JavaScript and use Doc.addField to set the text fields.
