Can't add java script to Adobe 7.0 PDF document

Hi, ran into a small problem using Adobe Pro 7.0. Created a interactive form in Adobe Designer 7.0. Want to add Java script to run when a user selects certain fields on the forms. However, when I try and use the advanced editing tools to gain access to the Java script properties for that object, the toolbar is greyed out. No document security has been configured. Can this be done? Should it be done in Adobe Prof or in Designer? Can't figure out how to add the java script to the forms.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks Michael

Once a form is started in LiveCycle Designer, it has to be edited in LiveCycle Designer. There are very few Acrboat features that can be used.

Condition verification in java script on Adobe form.

Hello Experts,
I am using a interactive forma text element on my view. (java web dynpro)
It's a simple application. I am trying to figure out how it works with java script.
I have a text field. which displays employ is sales or production dept
the values in the data view and its the output element of a BAPI which returns XF,TF,HF and XK,JK,HK
(record.dept)
if its XF, TF, HF on the text field in the adobe form should print sales else production.
I have never used java script on adobe form.
I figured the strip above the form in adobe designer is used for java script.
can any one, let me know how I can manipulate. the record value
Here is what I am trying record.dept = XF |TF|JF . but i dont know how to run the java script or its syntax.
Your help is highly appreciated.

James,
xfa.host.messageBox should show you an alert dialog box to check data you are getting.
And yes you are right. You can set the value of textfield using code you mentioned.
if(record.dept.equalsIgnoreCase("XF")
             || record.dept.equalsIgnoreCase("TF")
                      record.dept.equalsIgnoreCase("JF"))
   xfa.host.messageBox("The value is Sales");
   <Text-field id>.value = "Sales";
else
   xfa.host.messageBox("The value is Production");
<Text-field id>.value = "Production";
You can even set the texfields to be readOnly, hide some of them etc. But for that I would suggest you going thru the LiveDesigner help. It would solve most of your doubts :-).

Hi Kranthi,
You have option to read a cell content as html. else you will have to go for SDK. I think you will get better suggestions, if you can explain your requirement in a little detailed manner.

Hi,
sorry for asking stupid question
where do I put document script in adobe pro?

Just put the code directly in a document script. Any code in the document script (that is not a function) will execute on opening the document (assuming that Javascript has not been disabled on the user's end).

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<OpenSearchDescription xmlns="http://....">

i did this with the if_ixml interface and rendered the content in a file 'D:\usr\sap\IFD\DVEBMGS01\log\TEST_out.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<OpenSearchDescription xmlns="http://....">

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Use the following code:
set an document encoding
l_encoding = l_ixml->create_encoding( character_set = 'UTF-8'
                                        byte_order = if_ixml_encoding=>co_none ).
l_success = l_ostream->set_encoding( encoding = l_encoding ).
create a xml renderer
l_renderer = l_ixml->create_renderer( document = l_doc ostream = l_ostream ).

How to add text and objects (arrows) over a PDF document?

I am only familiar with Adobe Reader. Looking for the least expensive Adobe product that would allow me to add text and arrows over an existing PDF document. Not looking to edit (change) document other than add a "layer" over the original. Basic stuff I'm sure. Thanks for your help.

If you say so But I read the Original Comments and it doesn't sound like adding comments. When you adding layers as he is describing That is adding content.
"Not looking to edit (change) document other than add a 'layer' over the original."
But if you say Commenting then I suppose you are all correct.

How can I change the page size of a scanned PDF document?

How can I change the page size of a scanned PDF document?
I scanned a 50-page document with an HP 5610xi All-In-One using the software that comes with it: HP Scan Pro. Though the physical document has standard 8.5" x 11" pages, the PDF resulting from scanning has page size set to 35.42 × 48.67 inches (according to Preview's "Tools > Inspector". I want to resize the pages to 8.5" x 11". Shouldn't Preview be able to do that with "Tools > Adjust Size..."? When I try, the menu option is grey so I can't select it.
I'm using Preview Version 4.2.

Thanks for the insight; that explains why it's the wrong size. I selected 300dpi scanning (which is the default, actually), but HP Scan Pro evidently created a PDF with 72dpi indicated. I want it fixed because I want to distribute the file to other people and have them able to print or display it without problems.
I still don't know why Preview won't let me change it, but your question about whether I wanted to print it did lead me to find a workaround: "File > Print" and "Save as PDF..." saved it with the correct page size.

How do i add or delete information from an existing pdf document?

How do I add or delete information from an existing pdf document??

The free Reader has no editing capabilities.

Java script Alert-"Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation". Can't enable it.

I am running Windows 7 SP1, Presenter 7.0.0 version 7328 and Powerpoint 2007 (v12.0.6525.1000.)
My powerpoint file is running in 97-2003 compatibility mode, and I have produced a Presenter project with a link to some web content (a youtube-like video).
In Firefox browser v23.0.1, I can open the Presenter project from it's html starting point, right click on the SWF presentation as it is running, select global settings, on the advanced tab select trusted location settings, enter the website adress to the youtube-like content, and close the browser, reopen it, and the content launches without a Java script alert.
The Chrome browser will not do this. (Version 29.0.1547.76 m) (We are not using IE)
Even setting the web page security permission from the control panel and rebooting will not hold the website in place in the Flash Security settings.
Even going to the web site and editing directly will not work for chrome - ie, here:
http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04.htm l
By the term "not hold the setting" I mean upon reboot the website is no longer listed as trusted in global settings, nor in Chrome, nor in Flash security settings via Control Panel in W7. It IS listed in Firefox global settings as trusted, and so the content launches from Firefox, as said.
Firefox is persistant, Chrome is not, and so - is it a buggy Flash Security setting issue? Or a windows/chrome issue? Or my poor local machine....
Anyone have any ideas?
/brad

Hi Chris:
Thanks for the fast reply!
I looked. Unfortunately, the people viewing it have their laptops locked down, so cannot access the Internet, Control Panel or Flash Player Settings. So the suggestions there do not help. Anything that you suggest?
Is there anything I can do at the production end to help?
Thanks again for your response. It is a bit of an urgent situation, so I really do appreciate it.

How to Debug Java Script in Adobe Form

I have used an alert for empty fields . I have used Check button control for this.
But the button click is very inconsistent. Some times it triggers the event sometimes it doesnt. Is there anyway to debug the java script. I have installed Script editor for IE but I am unable to use it for Adobe Forms.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Vasu

Hi Vasu,
i think that maybe is the check sequence is not very correct.. and maybe you can try to code it one check for empty fields at a time..
example
Name.
Address.
Tel.
Hp.
Email.
so u can try to code for one item at a time then slow try to debug it... as last time i use to insert the javascript inside each component then after it i implement into a button and slowly check for the check sequence which one need to be 1st and etc.
hope it help you. if not maybe u can give more information. maybe i can help you out at myside.
Regard,
Ng Jia Jun

Java Scripting in Adobe Acrobat Pro

Company that I work for wants to create a form using Acrobat Pro with Java Scripting that allows access to data source. Is that possible? It is only being sent out to 350 people. Would we have to purchase LiveCycle still? Would really appreciate any input. Thank you

Depends on a couple of things.
Do you have Acrobat X Pro or Acrobat XI Pro?
If you have Acrobat X Pro then you also have Adobe LC Designer and can use an XFA based form with OLEDB to connect to your data source.
If you have Acrobat XI Pro then Adobe LC Designer is no longer included and you would be creating an AcroForm. In that case then "No" an OLE database source would not be directly available. But you could use a webservice to achieve similar results with Acrobat JS if you were using a web server.

Regarding usage of java script in adobe forms

Hello experts,
Please any body help me out with what events i should use in java script / formcalc .
send links for java scripting and formcalc.
Thanxs,
adi.

The reference for Formcalc is available inside you designer installation directory.
Like this one C:\Program Files\Adobe\Designer 7.1\Documentation\EN\FormCalc.pdf
There you can also find general LifeCycle Designer Documentation (Designer.chm)
In this file goto Creating Calculations and Scripts -> Events -> List of events
As for JavaScript - reference is not in the package, so you have to search a bit. Something is available:
Like this one: http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/tips/CalcScripts.pdf
Hope this helps!
