Adding a bookmark in Designer

Is it possible to place a bookmark using designer so that when a user opens the PDF file they will be able to navigate a large form more easily. Or, do I have to open the form in Acrobat Pro and add them manually?

This can be done - I've just finished a large form where I implemented Bookmarks for various sections of the form. You need to use Acrobat JavaScript - and the Bookmark object in that.
Here is a small fragment of code that may be helpful.
function showBookmarks (myDoc ) {
myDoc.bookmarkRoot.remove();
myDoc.bookmarkRoot.createChild ("MyForm", 0);
var bkm = myDoc.bookmarkRoot.children[0];
var page = xfa.layout.page ( xfa.resolveNode("AvokaDoc.page1.subFormSample") ) - 1;
//xfa.host.messageBox ("Page = " + page);
if (page > 0) {
bkm.createChild ("Sample Page", "xfa.host.currentPage = " + page );
Make sure that you read the document on using AcroJavaScript from Designer - it explains how to get the "myDoc" variable.
Good luck

  • I can not delete my history and adding new bookmarks. Upgrading to later Firefox versions and/or re-installing didn't help. The address bar still shows the web addresses of old and whenever I make new bookmarks, it's always gone as if it was never made.

    Also, I have noticed that every once in awhile you can not close tabs you've opened, either by pushing on the X button and/or clicking on the mouse to close it. Although closing the window and opening it again (without closing the Firefox application) seemed to rectify the problem in the short term, it's becoming quite annoying.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == the Firefox is being used

    I think I have a solution.
    First, download the add-on SQManager. This should be included with FireFox, it is really good.
    Look for the file '''moz_hosts''' in the folder '''places.sqlite'''.
    Don't delete the file, just delete the information in the file. My file has over 3600 websites, which go back years!! I did not know they were there, but I was frustrated about not being able to get rid of them. They popped up every time I used the address bar. Clearing my history would not get rid of them.
    This is where they are stored!! I found that by deleting the pesky web site from '''moz_hosts''', it does not appear in my address bar anymore!!!
    I think that if I just delete all the websites in moz_hosts....
    Wa-la...History Gone!!!
    As long as you don't delete the file, just empty it, FireFox won't know the difference. It will just keep adding websites to it until you empty it again.
    Why running "clear recent history" doesn't do this, I don't know. You are doing manually what "clear recent history" is not doing.
    Please tell me if you see any flaw in this.

  • Installed Firefox 4 on Mac OS X 10.6.7. (1) How can I delete icons it added to bookmarks toolbar so they'll all fit again? (2) Where is the Organize Bookmarks tool now?

    Don't know what details you might want.

    I'm not sure about the 'icons' added to bookmarks toolbars, but you can control your bookmarks using "Show All Bookmarks". That replaced 'Organize Bookmarks'. It will open the bookmark library & you should be able to rearrange, add, delete, etc from here.

  • How to add default values when adding custom component to design view?

    I have a set of custom components (usually) extending Spark components. But when adding our custom component onto design view, how can I define defult values (in AS3).
    For example, s:Button has default label = 'Button' when added to application, or mx:DataGrid has 3 columns predefined, but when using custom components there are no predefined values like this.
    I can put this values in constructor, but they are not visible in design time, only runtime.
    Any ideas? Thanks
    Esmin

    yes, I am. By the way I've found the solution. Someone might find this usefull.
    In design.xml having
    <component name="ExtendedTextInput" namespace="mynamespace" category="beta" displayName="ExtendedTextInput"/>
    use this
    <component name="ExtendedTextInput" namespace="mynamespace" category="beta" displayName="ExtendedTextInput">
            <defaultAttribute name="text" value="ExtendedTextInput"/>
        </component>
    so when adding this component to design view, it will have text setted to value ('ExtendedTextInput' in this case).

    I just started using Firefox. When I added a bookmark it was alphabatized and now when i add a bookmark it is added randomly

    hello scarsman, i think by default all bookmarks are sorted by their creation date - however you can right-click each folder and choose to sort all currently available entries by name. in the bookmark library you can click on any column (name, tag, last visit date, visit count, date added, etc...) to sort them as you want...

  • Adding to bookmarks

    Adding to bookmarked?

    In safari, the upright side, you can see an arrow icon which is beside of a book icon, touch it and you can see "add bookmark" function in the first row. If you want to see your bookmark, the book icon is the bookmarks you saved.

  • Adding new bookmarks in Safari

    Whenever I add a bookmark to the "bookmarks bar" folder it always adds the website to the top of the list, which ruins the order in which my "hot keys" (command + 1, command + 2, ect. ect.) While this is a very quick fix of just dragging the newly added website to the bottom of the list, is there anything I could enter into terminal which would just automatically add the websites to the bottom of the list? This is just a minor inconvenience which logically seems like a quick fix. Any help would be great

  • How to make Safari not autoexpand folders with same icon when adding a bookmark

    I am just stunned at how hard it is to add bookmarks to Safari. Any ideas?
    The deal. I have a highly organized, highly nested, voluminous bookmark list. When I go to add them, Safari auto-expands all folders, uses the same icon for them no matter if they are child or parents, and has no toggle to collapse. I would like a collapsable list by default and then expand to add. Man, I hate to sound negative, but this is 101 usability design and RIM does the same thing that Apple does for their backup on the BBErry when you want to select what you are backing up - autoexpand, no collapse, same icon. I think that's enough said on usability

  • Adding samples to Space Designer...

    Hi folks
    I have a bunch of samples someone gave me to add to Space Designer (wav samples of spaces...) but I'm wondering if there's a quick way to add them as presets to Space Designer - only way I've worked out so far is adding them one by one and saving them one by one. Admittedly I could have looked harder... Just wondered if anyone out there had already done this and could help me out?

  • Adding a Bookmark into a Page Layout document

    I cannot insert a bookmark into a Page Layout doc? Only a word processing doc? Garsh that doesn't seem right at all. But the bookmark Plus button and the Insert Menu option are grayed out unless I create a word proc doc - nope I need a layout doc. Help.
    Can't search yet - due to site maintenance.
    Message was edited by: smidi

    I disagree that the word processing mode was added in iWork '08/Pages 3. Pages 1 & 2 had the default text layer as does the word processing mode. In every way it continues to function just as the single mode available in the prior versions. When page layout mode was added that default text layer was removed requiring the user to put in some type of object - text box, graphic, table, etc. - before text could be entered.
    I think of page layout more like AppleWorks' draw, it's a blank slate. Pages' word processing is like AppleWorks word processing in that you can switch to an object mode & place text boxes, etc. as floating or place them inline. I think the Pages programmers added the mode because there were so many posts/complaints with users not understanding that the text layer was always there.

  • Word 2010 to pdf in Acrobat X under Win 7 64: numbers and letters added to bookmarks

    In some documents I convert, the bookmarks are prefixed with what appear to be 'internal' codes like 99B; in others -- based on the same template, and with the same formatting -- the bookmarks are created appropriately. It's clearly a Word 2010/Acrobat X interaction, but I cannot pin down the source of the problem. I've copy/pasted text from an offending .doc file into a fresh file, based on a different template, without success. Any advice will be gratefully received.
    Thank you,
    JGH

    There is nothing to activate the AcroTray.
    Most if not all are running 32-bit.
    Are you talking about the coping the whole 'Abobe PDF' directory in the All Users.

  • Adding a bookmark in Safari ios7?

    I cannot add a bookmark in Safari.  I updated to iOS 7.0.2 a week ago.  When I try to use the bookmark button (box with an upward arrow) Safari freezes and I have to close it.  I looked at settings for software and it said I am up to date.  All of my existing bookmarks are there, but I cannot add any new ones.  I don't know what else to do.  Any ideas?

    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear Cookies and Data.  Now close Safari.
    To close an app - Drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to Safari and then swipe "up" on the Safari thumbnail to close it. Now reboot the iPad.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    Now see if you can add bookmarks without Safari freezing.

  • Adding a bookmark does not save the bookmark if you press cancel

    When i click
    bookmarks -> bookmark this page
    It comes up with a popup saying "Page Bookmarked". Naturally, I hardly ever want to change the name of my bookmarked items so I click cancel. My bookmark is gone. Either it is getting deleted when i press cancel to the annoying popup that comes up, or its not getting saved in the first place.
    I consider this a HCI bug. If you want to argue that this is the correct functionality that you would expect, I must disagree. Bookmarking has always been a single click procedure and I'm not sure why pressing "cancel" would mean the bookmark is not stored. I have lost countless bookmarks from pages that I have thought were bookmarked but then when I tried to access them the next day, they were gone.

    Hi Cor-el. Thanks for the tip. I agree with everything else you have said. It is good to have the functionality for accidental bookmarking.
    However, my quarm is with the text "Page Bookmarked". Essentially what you have said means that it is actually a lie. It hasnt been bookmarked at all until I press confirm. Perhaps you should change the text that pops up since it is quite misleading. Perhaps "Bookmark Page" or "Page Bookmark" would suit it better. The extra "ed" means that it's actually referring to the verb and not the noun which is why it confuses me.
    I know it is a small thing, but it has annoyed me enough times to be bothered to sign up to these forums and ask the question.
    Thanks
