Unable to select or enter the text in the hidden form field

If I select 'Visible' to fields in the form that I created, I can enter text in them BUT they show as a gray light box.

If I select "Hidden" or "Hidden but printable" there is no box grey, but I can not put in value, select or enter the text in the fields once the PDF form is saved.

It of the same or not I have to save as 'Reader Extended PDF' or not.

I use Acrobat for Mac.

Thanks in advance.

It's highlighting of field assets.

  • Need help in the RTF form field to display the value yes or no based on xml

    Hello

    I have the data in xml format as follows: < CP_ZERO_COST > 2 < / CP_ZERO_COST >

    Now my requirement is, if CP_ZERO_COST is 2, then the column should display 'No' and CP_ZERO_COST is 1 column displays 'yes '. Now this 'yes' or 'no' is not in the xml tag. I need to do in the RTF form field.

    Could someone tell me please how to do this?

    Help, please.

    Thank you

    Try this:






    -You don't have to include this if the only possible values are 1 and 2.

    You can also use if so another logic. Be sure to specify the correct path to join CP_ZERO_COST

  • How to protect the edit form field text

    Hi - I use Acrobat 9 Pro Extended Windows.  I created a form; in the date field, I need the day to display when the form is activated first (open).  The form is sent to the additional workers, I need to stay in the field of the form and not change the date.  I was able to get the current date to display on the logon form, but each of the following to open the form changes the date.  I even saved a completed form (after you complete the form in Reader) but when he opened subsequently, it changed to the current date.  I'd appreciate any help.

    Thank you.

    Yes, you can use this:

    var currentDate = this.getField("Today").value;

    If (' currentDate == null | currentDate == "") {}

    var f = this.getField ("Today");

    f.Value = util.printd ("mm/dd/yyyy", newDate());

    }

    You must manually clear the field, make it read-only and then save

    file and close it.

    The next time that you open it, the field must be filled.

  • Is it possible to create a PDF file that will add and subtract in the same form field?

    I design a pdf form to fill out for a friend in need as an invoice. He wants to add each element of cost that happening automatically and I got including but now he wants to be able to subtract an element if necessary and I am lost as to how to get the correct code. Is this possible?

    So let's say that you have called Item1, Item2, Item3, and discount fields and you want to add the first 3 and then subtract the fourth total (sub).

    You can use the simplified field Notation on the calculation of your total field tab and enter the following in it:

    (Item1, Item2 and Item3) - Discount

    If the field names are more complex then a custom calculation script may be used instead:

    event.value = (Number(this.getField("Item1").value) + Number(this.getField("Item2").value) + Number(this.getField("Item3").value)) - Number(this.getField("Discount").value);
    
  • 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.

  • Importing data from XML form in hidden form fields &amp; making it visible if the book value

    Hello:

    I export the data in the form submitted, and important in the 2nd-> 3-> etc... Forms, however, a lot of these areas, I want to be kept hidden, unless they have a value. When I import data from field of forms 1, it will be smooth, however if the fields are hidden, you must go through the selection of checkboxes to make it visible again or just do all visible all the time. I was wondering if there is a feature or coding that would go in the direction of: Once imported XML favorite on click on the button "Update fields", go through fields and if hidden fields now have a value do what subform/Sub-sous-form Visible.

    The reason is that if you do have an incident report form which can take 10 names of employees, but only 2 were involved in an incident, it would look very cluttering on the survey form, if there are 10 fields name employee, 10 fields, 10 fields of plane location, etc... But only 2 employees have been involved in a minor incident on the incident report form which does not imply anything else.

    Any suggestion or help would be greatly appreciated and thanks for gratefull to any answer.

  • The pre-population of the child form fields

    Hi all
    I am commissioning user AD based on access policies. I also need to decide the DN of the group to that user based on the attributes of user profiles. For this I created a pre-fill adapter, but it doesn't work (maybe because the name of the group is a child table field).
    I went through the other forums that says we cannot pre-fill values in the child table. Is this true?

    The solution that has been to create access policies and give the name of the group, but in my case, there are about 1000s of different groups. Please suggest how can I set the Group dn in this case.

    Thank you
    Deepika

    Pre fill child Table is not possible.

    You need to add a task in the process definition which will read the user attribute and add groups to the user of the child form to AD object. This task will be called after the creation of the user.

  • Exclude the cfloop form fields

    Is that anyway to exclude some fields of the form while loop on others?  If I could simply not loop on certain fields in the form on the page of action it would be perfect. Not sure if this is possible.  I'm from the form elements, and adding or deleting a list... but I don't want all the form fields to do this.

    Right now the code is:

    < cfloop list = "" #form.fieldnames # ' index 'i' = delimiters = "," > "

    Making functions here to add, remove items from the form in a list.

    < / cfloop >

    You pouvez just add a conditional statement in your loop.  Something like that might work.

  • Calculate the based form field check

    I'm sorry to have to beg for help for what should be a very simple operation but being new script and can't find what I'm looking for

    While searching on the forums, I would really appreciate help with this simple operation:

    I have a checkbox called 'PlanCheckYes-No' and two form fields, called "Subtotal" and "PlanReviewFee".  What I'm trying to accomplish is to have PlanReviewFee to generate a tax of 35% of 'subtotal' when 'PlanCheckYes-No' is checked.  zero if it is unchecked.  in common language the equation would be something like this:

    If 'PlanCheckYes-No' = TRUE, then 0.35 * "Subtotal", if not then 0

    Anyone able to give me a hand with this?

    Would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

    Put this in the custom calculation of PlanReviewFee script:

    If (this.getField("PlanCheckYes-No").isBoxChecked (0) == "1")

    {event.value = this.getField ("subtotal") .value * 0.35 ;}} else event.value = 0;

  • Enter the info intoText field causes another field to autopopulate

    I have this form:

    Clipboard01.jpg

    I would like the form to fill the "Subtotal" and text fields 'Total' with the amount appropriate when a box is checked against a selection.

    I would also like to produce it even when a customer initiates a number of evidence in the text boxes in the 'Art Extra' section at the bottom. For example, the customer selects the "Vintage Collection" box and $399 is automatically entered in the "Subtotal" and "Total" (read only) areas. The client then decides that in addition to the impressions that come with "Vintage" Collection, they would like to add an 8 x 10 of one of the favorite from the shoot. They do so by entering a number of evidence in the text box next to "8 x 10 • $20" under the section "Extra." When they enter this number (or any text at all in one of the areas of text next to "• $20 8 x 10"), I would like the fields subtotal and Total to add $20 to the $ 399 already there.

    I contacted Adobe Support and they told me that it should be possible and ask here for help.

    I'd appreciate any help.

    Yes, it is possible, but it will write a script about measure that calculates the total (and the subtotal) based on values entered into the fields.
