Acrobat Xpro - give a value to a field

Question

Hello
We bought Xpro-Mac last April and still not very familiar with it.
Creating a table where individuals will enter the quantity they want to order for each pamphlet.
Pamphlet title
English
French
total
Title
Title
Postal fee (fix)
11.50$
Order total
total including
postal fees
We want the quantities to multiply by 0.20$ and in the last colum, total will be : english * 0.20$ + french *.020$. We are not able to find the way to do that. Also, the total of each line has to add up at the bottom after a fix postal fee.
One more question, how do I create a fix value in a field.
Could someone help me?
Christine

Answer 1

For the row total fields, you can use the simplified field notation calculation option and set it to something like:
.2 * English + .02 * French
where "English" and "French" are the coreesponding field names in that row. The other option is to use JavaScript, but it may not be necessary in this case.
For the column total fields, you can use the built in calculation option of "Value is the sum", and select the fields involved from the list.
After you set up all of the calculated fields, check the field calculation order to make sure it's correct.
