Text hidden in the sent form

Our company uses and Acrobat for our jobs online form and applications of volunteers.  We have a problem with a form being transmitted to with all the fields of text apparently "hidden." the only way I found to get the text entered to appear are to selece each text box, check box and radio button and change the property of filler on appearance "no fill" tab  I have to do this even if it is already set to "no fill".  I do it once all the text appears.  The form is currently downloaded by the applicant, filled in Reader, saved and then sent to our human resources department.

Anyone has any ideas on what could cause this problem?  The form was created in Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro.

Here is a link to the form.

Thank you

It is probably caused by people who use the application on a mac. For more information, see: http://kb2.adobe.com/community/publishing/885/cpsid_88564.html

The first few paragraphs and the "discussion" section should help.

  • Touch and hold to display the text hidden on the phone site.

    Hi all

    I was wondering if it is possible to have hidden text appear when you tap and hold an object on your site phone version. I will try to give an example to help clarify what I'm after.

    For example, I am a Graphic Designer under my article "offered services, I would like the user to be able to touch and hold an icon for, say, Print Design. When they touch and hold this icon, 5 bullets of text appear under the icon they hold, and all objects under this icon move toward the low make room for these 5 chips. Once the user takes their pressure on the icon, points 5 retract back to hidden and all the objects under the icon back in their original position.

    I hope it's possible? If so, how?

    Thank you much in advance. It is appreciated.

    Mike.

    Just try to press on and hold your finger on this text (or image) and you'll see why this is not possible. By pressing and holding an object in a browser, the operating system takes over and selects the text or the image under your finger to copy.

  • Default properties for the text field of the PDF forms

    How can I set the default properties for the text field?  The creator of forms set of font sizes that are too large.

    Right-click on the field > use current properties as new default.

    It will keep the new settings until the next time that you do this. It is not specific to the document. Do it separately for each field type (text, button, etc.)

    On an existing form, you can select multiple fields. A pro tip, is that you don't have to close the properties to move from the field to the field to the field. Dungeon opens and work faster.

  • PDF with hidden text readable in the drive, but not acrobat?

    For some reason, when I analyze documents in acrobat adobe all of the document is illegible - sound all hidden text.  However, when I open the same document scanned into adobe reader text is perfectly readable.  I received many documents PDF of colleagues who have the same problem - I have them open in acrobat, the text is unreadable, and hidden in a player of his fine.  Everyone knows about this problem?  I was able to play with the settings of the parser and were able to create PDFs without text hidden from the scanner.  The real problem is that I have to print a lot of PDF files I get - many of them are quite large. During the printing of the player, there are at least 5 minutes per page.  Any help/suggestions are appreciated.

  • How can I correct a text 'hidden' in a searchable PDF file?

    This seems to be a simple question. However, the answers are always complex, do not give the desired result and often answering a different question altogether. I say all this just to warn people at the outset that the 'problem' is easier than how many people and PDF application developers, including Adobe, generally it include the proposed "solutions" are invariably a total... Well, botch a reasonable word if somewhat underestimated.

    Here's the real problem:

    I have "searchable" PDF files created by scanning documents and their implementation through an OCR process. I create "searchable" PDF files to archive, index and possibly allow search for scanned documents. A "searchable" PDF file meets these criteria better than any other commonly used, 'portable' archive format - although I'd be happy if someone could indicate an obvious alternative I can remember. I don't have a perfect OCR results. If I need a document to edit or maybe feed in a spreadsheet or a database, I expect to be able to reprocess the page images in a given "searchable" OCR PDF and convert the content Word, RTF, Excel or another file format as needed with more carefully to the results for the archived document itself. Therefore, the "searchable" PDF document is scanned page images making it up while the OCR generated 'text' is secondary, but still important. Therefore, each file must contain images of the scanned page in sufficient detail to be efficiently converted by OCR if possible and quite readable for people who consider the images to be able to establish a process of OCR can not understand. Once scanned, these pages are the 'document' and so 'immutable '. However, OCR is not perfect. For an archive of searchable documents, it doesn't have to be, but some mistakes are important because they can prevent the document to be found by a search. Therefore, there must be a way to view and, if necessary, change the text 'hidden' in a "searchable" PDF file without changing the view of a document or how it is printed. No redaction. Not visible "corrections." None of the PDF stuff publishers want to insert in a PDF file when you edit it. I don't want to modify the document without exporting to a format suitable for an editable document. I just want enough 'correct' text hidden in a PDF "searchable".

    I apologize for the length and redundancy in my description of the problem. However, past attempts to explain my problem and objectives as well as what I've seen in response to similar questions through the Internet indicate that most people trying to answer this question coming home the same point of view shared by most, if not all, sellers PDF tool or application. They seem to think that all desire to edit a PDF file is a desire to have a PDF processing any. Or, they assume that the process of OCR employee may need tweaking of the means by which people apply and then a process like 'find the suspects' is sufficient to deal with errors. But no, it's not what I'm trying to accomplish and the responses that deal with these subjects do not meet this issue.

    In short, what tool or the application of any provider will reveal "searchable" hidden text in a file PDF produced by any OCR or any other process and then enable corrections to the text hidden without changing the document display settings at all? Note, includes hidden text generally limit the information in the box which indicates the portion of the picture that the text has been recognized. This information must be lost or changed when you change the text "available".

    Thus the tools or applications that can do that? If Adobe Acrobat Pro XI can (use of a copy of the trial showed that hidden text content may be revised, but publishing has failed by any simple way I work while trying the application), fine. However, list $ 500.00 or even a $200.00 can update a copy of Adobe Acrobat X Standard that came with my scanner is a lot of money for personal use when reviewing and changing the hidden text in a PDF "searchable" OCR is the only function I need. Therefore, other instruments suggested or applications that make what I need for less would be greatly appreciated.

    I scan a document directly or starting with a PDF "only images", no Adobe product offers a convenient way to examine and correct the 'hidden' text generated by either the process Adobe Acrobat OCR OCR tools or third-party applications. When you use Adobe Acrobat, the 'Find the Suspects' function will allow correction of the flags of Acrobat OCR results, but a lot of mistakes-for example the names are a particular problem because incorrectly recognized the outcome of the names of "viewable" files that could not be found when looking for files containing the text elements that are among the most likely entered search terms - will not be reported as "suspect" and cannot be corrected in a file to be saved as a file PDF 'searchable' where 'searchable' is Image indexable () 'Exact)"- that is a PDF file containing images of scanned documents original, no altered page - with the"searchable"text written in the file as text 'hidden' 'under' the images on the page.

    For scanning and archiving paper documents with text 'hidden' to enable computerized research, products from other suppliers should be used. Adobe Acrobat products are insufficient to the task.

    If you want to scan documents, treat them with OCR, and then convert the results to other formats - for example Word, RTF, etc. - to be edited by hand, then Adobe products can be used. However, just at how they perform this task is outside my experience and is beyond the scope of my original question.

  • The fields appear "hidden" when the use of ADADS to fill out the form.

    Hey,.

    I came across a weird problem that I can't solve;

    Whenever the created form is filled using a MAC - sent form has all its hidden text fields.

    I have to click on each field to reveal the data entered.

    As soon as I click on another text field, then that text is revealed and everything else is hidden.


    Any fix for that?

    The forms have been created using Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2.

    See you soon,.

  • Add the date and time to a text field when the form is submitted

    Is it possible to add the date and time to a text field where the user is clicking the button of form submit?

    I created a custom send form button and do not use the distribution process to collect the results and would like to have a time stamp of when the form has been sent.

    Thank you!

    Sure. Before your submit order add a command run JavaScript with this code:

    this.getField("SubmitDate").value = util.printd ("mm/dd/yyyy hh: mm", new Date());

    Change the field name or date that required such boss.

  • Deleting all the blocks of text hidden unexpectedly removes blocks of text embedded (but visible). Why?

    I try to use the code below to remove all the blocks of text hidden in a document. It is works quite well, BUT for some reason, removes the visible anchor text blocks.

    (the argument currentTextFrame.length is to prevent it remove hidden text blocks if the content is threaded, in which case the text is redéroule then in blocks of text that is visible.) I need to find a solution to this, but it's tomorrow problem.)

    I have a similar function to allGraphics and does not remove the anchored frames.

    Can someone point me in the right direction? I can add a check to see if the text block is anchored, but I fear that I might get bored the biggest problem.

    var myDocument = app.activeDocument;
var myTextFrames = myDocument.stories.everyItem().textContainers.reverse();
var myTextFramesLength = myTextFrames.length;
for ( i = 0; i < myTextFramesLength; i++ ){

    Hi Naomi,

    and there is an array of arrays with:

    myDocument.stories.everyItem().textContainers

    Try this:

    var a = app.documents[0].stories.everyItem().textContainers;
for(var n=0;n

    I suggest the following, which should work:
    

    var doc = app.documents[0];
var myStoriesArray = doc.stories.everyItem().getElements();
var storiesLength = myStoriesArray.length;

var textContainersToRemoveIDs = [];

for(var n=0;n

  • Simple form: just 1 text field and the radio button 2...

    I have a question about the Muse Widgets when it forms.  I have a very simple interface, I want to try to apply an additional tax of an amount of entry; I want to give the user the ability to select Add fresh or not.

    The only widget I found on current Muse was a Simple Contact form emails. I've stripped down to 1 input text, group 1 radio. I exported html code, added in the onclick event in the HTML for the radio buttons perform the calculation of the additional tax.  On the action of the form = "xxx", muse creates a few php files for validation and finally sending the form as an email, I have a test in the form e-mail address.  I can stub out that php and put in my own actions to waive the sending of the email.  I have 2 questions: ONE QUESTION) on the level of code there is a control of the syntax form fields (corresponds to the entered text input, is a selected radio button, etc.). SimpleContact form comes with 3 < p > < / p > due to the action of the form = "xxx" statement. The 3 lines correspond to the errors, which is a generic "server has encountered a problem." (something like that).  Does anyone know what code is to identify the error and how it is returned to the call statement? MuseUtils.js?  It is not in the action = "xxx" php referenced file.  It maybe too much, I'm interlacing syntax, semantic validation on a form after the muse html export.  Second QUESTION) is before all this... it all simple forms of 3rd party, I can use (Group 1 radio 1 text, drop-down list), which I can integrate Muse?  Looked at Muse-themes.  Don't have a complete package of e-commerce, yet.  (This is for a non-profit and trying to reduce recurrent costs).  Sorry, this is so wordy, appreciated by any direction.

  • I've created a form that uses the value field text to fill the text of another field.  Does not take into account changes

    I've created a form that uses the value field text to fill the text of another field.  However, if I need to change the text, the second field does not update this change.  Instead of reset the form each time, is the Javascript code to update the fields if they have been modified?

    For example I Text1 and Text2.

    When I type in Hello in Text1 I see Hello in Text2.

    Later, if I decide to change to Goodbye Text1, Text2 remains Hello.

    The shape of the hoe can recognize this change?

    Thank you

    Edit: I think I have misunderstood the situation.

    If you want to both fields have the same value, just to give them the same name.

  • I created a pdf form to a Word doc with the air police 9 pt formatted; the text on the pdf form is air 9 pt, but the fields are formatted in courier 12 pt - how can I reformat the police in the fields?

    I created a pdf form to a Word doc with the air police 9 pt formatted; the text on the pdf form is air 9 pt, but the fields are formatted in courier 12 pt - how can I reformat the police in the fields?

    Edit the form fields so that they use Helvetica by 9 points. Do not set the Arial font. Acrobat/Reader will use a private version of Arial as a substitute for Helvetica. If you specify Arial, it will integrate the entire police (sometimes several times), makes that increase the file size unnecessarily.
