Complicated Excel form needs to be converted to PDF Fillable form

I have an Excel file have has hidden cheater fields (M&N) and a hidden lookup table (O:P).
The form fields that are used follow (using row 10 as an example, rows 10-25 are involved)
E10 = Lengthft (entry field)
F10 = Widthft (entry field)
G10 = Patchsy (formula)=ROUND(IF(F10="",0,(E10*F10)/9),3)
H10 = PlanPatchThicknessin (entry field)
I10 = MeasuredPavementThicknessin (entry field)
J10 = Adjustedsy (formula)=IF(F10="",0,IF(N10="Extra Work","Extra Work",G10*(N10/100)+G10))
M10 = hidden field (formula)=((I10-H10)/H10)*100
N10 = hidden field (formula)=VLOOKUP(M10,O1:P7,2)
Hidden Lookup (O1:P7):
-99
-20
-30.0001
-15
-20.0001
-10
-10.0001
10.0001
10
20.0001
15
30.0001
Extra Work
I know very little about java script and have been learning as I go.  I have created some custom calculation fields but this is way over my head.  I have converted the pdf to a form and added the fields, I have already added calculations for Patchsy and ToDatesy (not shown in list of fields).
I am completely lost in how to proceed with the Adjustedsy field because it is using all these hidden fields to obtain the answer.
I hope someone can help me.
Thanks

I have tried to write this out as a problem and not sure if it makes sense to anyone but me.  This is all used to fill one field (AdjustedSYRow1).  The last part of the problem is written as an if statement.  Not sure how else to write it out.
I understand the variable part and can write the first part of the problem - then I get to the lookup and don't know how to do that.
// Get field value
var v1 = getField("MeasuredRow1").value;
// Get field value
var v2 = getField("PlanRow1").value;
if (v1==0) event.value = "";
else event.value = (v1 - v2)/v2*100;
That will answer the first part of the problem, but then I get hung up on the rest of it.
First part of the problem:
((Measured Pavement Thickness - Plan Patch Thickness) / Plan Patch Thickness ) * 100
Example with form field names:  ((MeasuredRow1 – PlanRow1) / PlanRow1) * 100
This is where I get stuck:
If the answer to the above is…
< -30 then -20,
between -20.0001 and -30, then -15,
between -10.0001 and -20  then -10,
between -10 and 10, returns null(?), a period was used in the excel lookup because a zero would not work – but it means that there is no adjustment.
between 10.0001 and 20  then 10,
between 20.0001 and 30  then 15,
over 30 then “Extra Work”)
The above information (in bold) is then used to complete the rest of the problem. 
=IF(F10="",0,IF(N10="Extra Work","Extra Work",G10*(N10/100)+G10))
Example with form field names:  If WidthftRow1=””,0,if(above answer is “Extra Work”, “Extra Work”, PatchRow1*(above answer/100)+PatchRow1

  • 34,000 page excel file needs to be converted to pdf

    I have a 34,000 page excel file that I need to convert to pdf. The excel file is 13mb. I'm using excel 2013 on Win 7.
    Within excel, I have tried Save As pdf.  It has never finished.  I've let it run all day and night, but it gets to about 90% and hangs.
    Last night, I tried converting it within Adobe (let it run all night), and found that it had crashed some time over night.
    I really want this to be one pdf since it's one excel file and it would be simpler for traceability and audit purposes.
    My questions are:
    1.  Is there a maximum file size or page limit to conversions?
    2. Any suggestions on how to convert this into one pdf file?
    Thank you!!

    That's a large file. PDFs can have many more pages than that though, so it's not due to a limitation of PDF. As a test, are you able to select fewer pages to convert to see how it goes?

    "Adobe" is a company. If you mean "Adobe Reader" then you can't (at least not easily). You need Adobe Acrobat for that.

  • Output of RFC needs to be converted into PDF format

    Hi Experts,
    In the ESS screen, we have to provide one link for every employee. When the user will click on the link, one letter in PDF format should be displayed to the user. This PDF will act as a "Address Certificate". The address certificate will contain information related with name, address, passport details etc. How we can achieve this?
    In my view, we will have to create one Z-RFC. The ABAPer will create the Z-RFC. Now the input for the Z RFC will be employee no. The output will be Name, Address and Passport details.
    The information provided in table format needs to be converted into PDF form. How we can do so? What all services needs to be activated for this?
    Regards,
    Gary

    Hi Gary,
    When you say the ESS screen, what do you mean by this is it ECC side or in Portal Side.
    It its in Portal side then, I think you need to create a WebDynpro application which display output through ADOBE forms. For that you need to have basic WebDynpro knowledge.
    Apart from that ADS needs to be configured. There are sevrel tutorial available in SDN. For creating a WebDynpro Application with Adobe Interactive forms.
    Do let me know if you require more information.

  • Excel cell border disappears when converting to PDF (continued)

    Continuing from http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b4dd40 which was archived already.
    I too am getting the problem in which Excel cell borders are disappearing from cells with a background color. Lowering the resolution to 300 dpi does not help.
    The borders are definitely disappearing. Printing the worksheet from Excel 2003 prints the cell borders. Printing the worksheet from the resulting PDF does not. I created the PDF using the Create PDF macro that Acrobat 9 adds to Excel.
    Here's the really odd thing: it only affects two adjacent cells in the same (first) row of the worksheet. Other cells with the same background color in the same columns or the same row are not affected, nor are the cells in other rows or columns.
    Copying similar cells that don't have the problem, then re-converting doesn't help.

    I just tested inserting a blank row 1 in the spreadsheet, moving the problem cells to C2 and D2, but the borders still disappear from those cells.
    Restoring back to C1 and D1, I note that if I copy the cell formats to other worksheets, the problem cells lose their borders on all worksheets.
    I then tested what happened if I specified No Color for C1 and D1. The problem transferred to cells G1 and H1, which had then become the first adjacent cells with background color.
    Restoring the background color to C1 and D1 transferred the problem back to C1 and D1, and removed the problem from G1 and H1.
    Next, I gave cell A1 a background color of white. This removed the problem from cells C1 and D1, and gave it to A1.
    Finally, I turned accessibility tagging off and that made the problem go away. However, I need tagging as we must post accessible documents.
    So now I have a consistent way to describe the problem: cell borders disappear from the first set of contiguous cells with background colors if tagging is turned on. I'm going to file this as a bug.

  • Subject: Document attached to record (Automtically convert to PDF)

    Dear All,
    My requirement in record management is as follows:
    I have a document attached to a record. (Tcode: SCASE)
    The document needs to be converted into pdf and attached a different node in the record. All of this should be done by the system automatically (as a background step of the workflow). Do we have any configuration set in the record/document management to convert them?  Please suggest.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    Class CL_CRM_DOCUMENTS has different methods that you can use:
    CREATE_WITH_FILE
    CREATE_WITH_URL
    CREATE_WITH_TABLE
    Depending on the source of the document you want to attach, you can call one of those methods to attach your document.
    Embed this in a FM that you trigger out of your action, and you should be good to go

  • Converting Election PDF's to Excel;

    When converting several different election PDF's to Excel, the conversion does not come out correctly. Individual rows in the PDF's are grouped together as sets of three in the corresponding Excel file. It is very difficult to work with the resulting Excel file.
    For example try converting this PDF election file: http://www.acgov.org/rov/current.htm
    The result in Excel becomes this: (note how three rows are gouped in each cell)

    I have an Adobe account and used the online converter. I also had problem converting such files with Adobe Acrobat Pro XI.
    Are there any options or other trick that can be used to convert such files?
    Thanks

    Short response:
    "You cannot make a silk purse from a sow's ear."
    Expanded response:
    Just looked at "sovc2012-11-06.pdf".
    From looking at the PDF and at the content exported to PDF -
    The Excel file has multiple rows in a single Excel row.
    re: (note how three rows are grouped in each cell)
    Root cause for export content needing cleanup = the PDF is not a tagged PDF.
    Viewing the content one "sees" and extrapolates the intended logical hierarchy.
    However the PDF content has no logical hierarchy imposed as it is not a well-formed tagged PDF.
    ("well-formed" as defined by ISO 14289-1, the ISO standard for PDF/UA).
    Export needs the content's logical hierarchy to be known.
    When this is not present heuristics are used. How effective this is is dictated on how the content was created and processed out to PDF.
    The PDF I viewed is intended to represent tabular data.
    That is not how the content in the PDF was created/painted.
    If you have Acrobat Pro open the PDF then open the Content Panel.
    Ignore the "Path" entries.
    Select a "Text:" entry.
    From the Panel's Options menu select the "Highlight" choice.
    Now move down, selecting "Text:" entries for a given page.
    Observe how what is highlighted bounce about different locations on the page.
    Whatever application was used to feed Distiller (which produced the PDF) did not provide requisite logical hierarchy.
    The page bounce I mentioned displays the order in which textual content was painted to the PDF page.
    A consequence of how the PDF source content was mastered and how this was processed to PDF is that what we see/know to be, logically, discrete rows gets bundled during export and placed into a single row.
    This would not occur had the PDF content been created as proper tabular data with correct application of the PDF <Table> element and this element's child elements/tags.
    If this PDF had been mastered properly and appropriate tag management used the tagged output PDF would've had a well-formed <Table> element with proper child elements.
    An export of this to Excel would've required little to no cleanup in the Excel file.
    Unfortunately you do not have the "well-formed tagged PDF".
    Consequently ExportPDF or Acrobat export is hampered.
    n.b., manually tagging to provide a proper <Table> is, typically, not practicable.
    For this particular content it'd be a waste of life-minutes.
    Unfortunately, you'll have to perform manual cleanup of the content exported to Excel to get where you want to be.
    As good as ExportPDF and Acrobat export are they are constrained by what is provided as input.
    It's unfortunate that Alameda did not provide well-formed tagged PDF on it's publicly facing web site.
    Consequently they are not accessible to many (i.e., Section 508 accessibility), they are not fully supportive of "re-purpose" via export, they are not fully supportive of use on mobile devices.
    Disappointing because with Acrobat Pro (and perhaps some ancillary supporting tools) it is not so difficult to provide well-formed tagged PDF.
    Be well...

    Im trying to convert a PDF into an excel document and I keep getting an error message that reads "An error has occurred while trying to access the service". WHat am I doing wrong?

    it seems my subscription had expired so I signed up again.. It was still having trouble so I repeated the sign up process again.. Then it worked perfectly.. Unfortunately, I think I just subscribed twice and need to cancel one of them. Ugh. Such a pain when I'm trying to get this project completed. I'll be canceling at least one of the subscriptions in the morning. Adobe is not my favorite company right now. None of this was intuitive. And trying to get help was an absolute waste of an hour.

  • Good day, I have installed Acrobat DC, and would like to combine 2 files. One is excel allready converted to PDF - No problem. The other one is from Pastel mailed as PDF.

    Good day,
    I have installed Acrobat DC, and would like to combine 2 files. One is excel allready converted to PDF - No problem. The other one is from Pastel mailed as PDF.
    When trying to merge the files, this file ask for a Password. No password was issued from the setup or mail?

    Good day abrieb93050306,
    I can understand your concern, however can you please let me know that are you able to open both the PDF files ( the one you converted form excel to pdf & the other pdf that was mailed to you ) individually without using any password?
    As it asks for the password, it means that the postal mailed PDF is password protected. You can ask for the password from the sender of the postal mail & then try to combine the files.
    Please follow the steps in the provided KB doc.to combine the files : Combine files into single PDF | Adobe Acrobat DC tutorials
    This will probably resolve your issue.
    Let me know if you still experience any issue.
