Adding or deleating unneeded lines from a fillable form

I am attempting to create a form that will request employee information to attend training (basically a four column, one line table for each) .  Depending on the training, there could be from 5 to 50 employees attending.  Is there a way to add/delete lines as needed using a button or other method so that the form does not have multiple unused lines?

This will help here.

  • Why doesn't the image from my fillable form not appear when I save it as a PDF?

  • Omitting pages from Enabled Fillable Form Packets

    I am creating fillable form packets using Adobe Acrobat 9.0 pro (with multiple fillable forms) for use by users using Adobe Reader.  These are enabled.  The problem arises when the end user saves the document, but does not need all of the pages.  Can those not needed be deleted at that point?

    correction, I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro 8.0

  • Collecting intact responses from a fillable form

    How can i distribute the fillable form through a company website but receive submitted responses to an email address?  I need the completed questionnaire to remain intact.  FormsCentral sorts the form's responses which doesn't work for our purposes.

    You can set up a button with a "Submit a form" action and use a mailto type URL to specify the email address you want the forms sent do. Once you have the form all set up, you need to Reader-enable it as the final step. This thread shows how with several versions of Acrobat. You then have to send the form to your users or make it available on a web site.

  • How to combine data from different input forms outside a nested iView

    Hi,
    i try to combine data from different input forms in a single one.
    Because of space reasons in Flex compiling i already use nested iViews. Within these nested iViews its possible to use the 'combine' function to do this.
    But in the main iView I cant compose these function with other elements. I need to do this because of using these model in Guided Procedures with output parameters. These parameters I only get with a 'endPoint'. Unfortunatly its not possible to combine data from different input forms into the 'endPoint'.
    Is there any solution?
    Thanx
    Mathias

    Hi Scott,
    i tried this already and i also tried to map all parameters in the endpoint by drawing lines from the other forms and assign the 'empty parameters' by a formula.
    And when i create a collable object in GP and assign the VC iView, only the parameters of the parent-form (the form who trigger the event) are shown as output-parameters.
    Maybe any other ideas? I cant believe that such a simple thing is not possible?!?!
    In my opinion, thats a bug, that I'am not able to use the combine-operator in the main VC-iView. Whats your mind?

  • Create a fillable form that can be saved by others

    Hi, I'm working in Adobe Acrobat X Pro, I'm on a PC
    I know that you go to File>Save As...>Reader extended pdf>
    After that I get "Enable Adding Text in Documents (that are not fillable form)...
    I then get a form that is using a "typewriter" tool." That's not what I want.  I want a fillable form that can be saved by the person filling out the form and not have to use the typewriter tool.  I don't like the way that looks or works.  I hope there is someone that can help.  I used to be able to do this and don't understand what has changed.
    Thanks!

    Yes, it will allow pre-11 Reader users to save.

    Yup, you guys pointed me in the right direction.
    I changed my adjustmentListener to the following:
    JScrollBar scrollBar = (JScrollBar) e.getSource();
    int endLoc = document.getLength();
    try {
        Rectangle end = outputArea.modelToView(endLoc);
        if (end != null) {
            int n = scrollBar.getValue() + scrollBar.getVisibleAmount();
            boolean locked = (end.y >= n && n <= (end.y + end.height));
    } catch (BadLocationException ex) {
    }By comparing scrollbar position with the visible rectangle of the end of the document, I can now easily tell if the user has moved the tracker back or not.
    To go to the next step of automatically pausing scrolling whenever the user is moving the slider back, I also had to disable the automatic scrolling performed by DefaultCaret. Because there was no way to tell if the user was scrolling or if the output was adjusting from the adjustmentListener, I also had to flag whenever I was autoscrolling.
    The end result is a JTextPane that can be appended to at all, and locked by the user by using the slider. If new data arrives, the window is not scrolled, and any text selection the user has is not cleared. Perfect!

  • Adding a line to an adobe fillable form

    I have Adbobe X Pro and I am creating a fillable form. I want to be able to add a box that allows the Adobe reader user to add an additional line or activity to the report. I have been trying to search for this but can't find it. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Hi Lauried13,
    You'll need to use LiveCycle Designer to create this type of functionality.  LiveCycle Designer ships with Acrobat X Pro for Windows.  Please take a look at this tutorial for more info: http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/creating-expanding-form-fields

  • Prepopulating PDF Fillable Forms with data from XML files

    How can I get a PDF fillable form to open pre-populated with data from an XML file automatically? I've been using Adobe Standard 9.0 and am willing to upgrade in a modest fashion if necessary. I am aware of the Navigation method > Forms > Manage Form Data > Import Data. This works fine, however, my users are not smart enough to do tis much clicking and selecting. Is there an automated way to have this XML data merged into the PDF file on the fly. These files will reside on an internal local area network and will be operated on local PC's that will probably have Acrobat Reader ONLY. I have been told that the only way to accomplish this is through Java Scripting. I would prefer to do this the 'old fashioned' way of command line switches, but that does not appear to be an option. Does anyone have a sample Javascript that would accomplish what I am trying to achieve. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Sharon
    The easiest way is:
    - Open your PDF form within Acrobat
    - From the File menu, import the XML form data into the form
    - From the File menu, use Save As... to save the file with a new name.
    The new PDF will be identical to the original one, but will have the data embedded in it. Voila.
    If you want the same form to pre-populate with different XML files depending on the circumstances, or if you're generating the XML on the fly, then things get more complicated. (And more expensive.) As your consultant said, LiveCycle Forms is one option, but it is expensive (actually even more than 10K). There are other options, including Cold Fusion, custom servlets, etc.

  • Need help with numbers adding instantly in fillable form

    I am doing a fillable form in acrobat where certain text boxes are being added to one another based on the users answers. It is basically a checklist for life insurance. Only problem I am having is certain numbers from equations aren't being added to my total instantly. You have to click on another box before it will do the addition. Other boxes that don't use a calculation add in instantly. Any idea how to fix or get around this???? Thanks for any assistance you can provide!

    Thanks for the reply! I was able to reset the field calculation order
    but have one field that is not populating right away and I have
    changed it's order everywhere?

  • SAP Version to be added in the subject line while posting a question.

    Hi,
    We all have been posting and answering thousands of questions on the SDN. Many times I have seen moderators asking the person who posted a question to use a correct and informative subject line.
    With respect to that, I would like to suggest the moderators to add a rule in the rules of engagement asking the users to provide the SAP Version in the subject line while posting questions.
    This way the person answering the question can appropriately provide information based on that version only and would save the time and effort of everyone.
    Example subject line can be :
    ECC 6.0 Function module xyz is not returning correct results.
    I would like to know the opinion of other users too on what they think about this suggestion.
    Best regards,
    Advait

    In theory - a very good idea.
    In practice - hard to enforce.
    On second thoght, it could be a required parameter. It might have the added benefit of dissuading questions from people who can't figure out which version they have

  • Delete X number of lines from files

    I am trying to find a way (either through an extension or
    some other third-party freeware) to remove a number of lines from
    the beginning of my files and replace them with alternate code.
    I know that in many cases, a Search and Replace would do the
    trick. But in my case, the lines that I want replaced do not
    exactly match. For example, I might want to remove the first 15
    lines from the beginning of each file in question; however, I might
    have three lines of code in the files that each set a variable
    value, with that value being different in each file. Thus, as far
    as I understand it, the DW Search and Replace would not work for
    me.
    Even if I have can just find some way to first strip the
    lines of code out without replacing it with the new code I want,
    that would be fine. Adding in the new code afterwards would not be
    an issue.
    Any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you very much.

    Actually the linfeed is the \n in my suggestion. The ^
    designates the
    beginning of the string.
    Are you on a Mac? I tested it and it worked correctly on my
    windows
    machine. Come to think of it, I have my line feeds set to
    Unix because
    that's what my web server uses. You can try replacing the \n
    with \r or
    \n\r depending on which line feed you're using:
    ^.*\r.*\r.*\r.*\r.*\r.*\r.*\r.*\r.*\r.*\r.*\r.*\r.*\r.*\r.*\r
    or:
    ^.*\r\n.*\r\n.*\r\n.*\r\n.*\r\n.*\r\n.*\r\n.*\r\n.*\r\n.*\r\n.*\r\n.*\r\n.*\r\n.*\r\n.*\r\ n
    One of the three should work.

  • Dreamweaver has added thousands of blank lines to my code

    I installed creative cloud and dreamweaver - I edited a few PHP  / HTML  / javascript  files on my server - now dreamweaver had added thousands of blank lines to my code. It will take days to clean them out and I can't seem to find a "find and replace" or "regular expression" to remove these... first of all... THANKS SO MUCH FOR GIVING ME THIS HEADACHE... and now.... HOW THE FRIG DO I GET RID OF THESE???
    It is dreamweaver that did it...
    I just tested and proved it.
    Took a well formatted html doc....
    Edited it (remotely) with two different software -
    Then connected Dreamweaver Edited it again... and WHAMO!
    11,0000 lines of new blank lines.
    Dreamweaver is for sure confusing something as a new line.
    Undoubted there is a reason for this... but it is for sure Dreamweaver the culprit for actuating it.
    The files are of course downloaded as temp files - edited - and then uploaded at save....
    So my tests are true and consistent.
    Three different editing software all performing the exact same steps.
    Yet - Dreamweaver adds thousands of blank lines.
    It looks to me as though it is adding the line where there was a return. Somehow interpreting it as 2 line returns.
    Whatever is happening - is happening inside dreamweaver, while using its "files connect to remote server" function.
    These are live websites with custom PHP, PHP frameworks, MySQL calls, Javascript and...
    I have been using the "Switch Design View To Live View" to test the PHP changes I make right in DreamWeaver.in Dreamweaver, how to prevent it, or how to get rid of the 10's of thousands of returns once they have been added.
    If anyone has any actual answers as to why this is happening …. Please let me know.
    I am not interested in assumptions from the many here who tend to waste a lot of space and time convoluting these forms.
    This is a real problem and has already been proven to be actuated by Dreamweaver... So please... Only answers that may help sort out why or how this is happening within Dreamweaver.
    Thank you.
    Regards,
    Ken

    Ken, I just posted a potential solution.
    Here is my post:
    For people having issues with DW (or any other ftp app) adding extra blank lines: changing the ftp mode to BINARY probably solves this behaviour. It happened once to me when using Filezilla ftp.
    Dreamweaver automatically uses ASCII to transfer readable text based files (like html and php). To change this transfer mode to BINARY, open FTPExtensionMap.txt (WIndows in AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS6\en_US\Configuration) and edit that file in a text editor.
    Then change the appropriate mappings.
    Hope that helps fix the problem.It's a known problem in certain cases, though I haven't experienced it a lot (just once a few years ago in Filezilla, actually). It has to do with how a Windows system and certain Linux systems might interpret CR LF and LF line endings.

  • Deleting Line from Return Document (error occurs)

    Does SBO Allows to delete a line from return document using the SDK
    I tried to delete a line but an error occurs
    Sincerely yours
    Riade Asleh

    Hi Riade,
    Are you talking about removing a line of a return once the document has been added to SBO? If so, you cannot remove a line either by using the UI or the DI API. This is by design.
    If you are not talking about removing a line after adding the document, please could you post details of the error you get and the code you are using?
    Kind Regards,

  • Drawing line from existing one without joining

    How can I draw a line from the endpoint of an existing line (snap to grid is on), without the lines being joined?  Joining causes two problems for me:
    1. The arrowhead at the end of the existing line moves to the end of the joined line, whereas I want the arrowhead in the middle of the combined line.
    2. Even without entering isolation mode the new line gets joined to a line which belong to a group, thus becoming part of that group as well. This defies the use of grouping to create logically connected units.
    TIA

    while I agree in principle, on practice when clicking on end points with the pen tool most of the time I do want the paths to join but a lot of other times I do not. So, the best practical solution at least for me would be just holding the Spacebar when clicking on an end point to prevent joining without the need to click away and then drag in place. And they should make this an option in the Preferences for those who want to hold Spacebar only when joining.
    The bigger problem is that with overlapping points and edges, Illustrator uses the stacking order and not the selected object when auto joining or adding points which is actually not practical in any case. For example if there are several lines starting at the same point, not the selected but the topmost line will be joined and with overlapping edges adding a point is impossible if the selected edge is not on the top.
