Custom Dynamic Stamp Allowing Custom User Text

Maybe there are too many results to read through... I've searched and searched to no avail...
I've created a custom dynamic stamp (in Acrobat Pro X) but I want to be able to enter whatever text I want into the field and I seem to be doing something wrong. There's no way that this isn't an option... is there?
I've checked "Value Is Not Calculated" but once I insert the stamp, I don't know how to add text to the field.
Maybe this is a super-newbie question, but I'm stumped and would REALLY appreciate a hint!
Thanks a lot!

Yes, you can use the 'app.response' method or the Dialog object.

Sharing dynamic custom stamp to other users

In Acrobat pro 9 and earlier, I could share my stamps folder to other users and the dynamic custom stamps would travel and work just fine to new users. But not in ProX. Steps have been repeated from 9, The legacy folder was tried as a replacement, fresh dynamic stamps were built in Pro X. Nothing travels over. Help and guidance would be appreciated. Thanks in advance -doug.

Are you saving the stamp file in each user's stamp folder?

Question regarding the creation of a custom dynamic stamp using "Will Print" from "Set Doc. Actions

Hi all,
Using Acrobat 9.0 Professional, I have successfully created a dynamic stamp using the forums where I have added Login / Date to my own image and it works great as designed. However, the problem I am having is that when a document is stamped it becomes flat and doesn't update dynamically which does not work for my requirements.
I need to create a pdf that is stamped by myself so that other users (using only Reader) can open the pdf and when printed the stamp will print with the correct date/time (in the format I describe below).
I found a workaround (outside of a stamp) where I added a text box (called "Today") that updates everytime the document is printed by going to
Advanced / Document Processing / Set Document Actions / Document Will Print
and adding the following Java Code:
var f = this.getField("Today");
f.value = util.printd('yyyymmddhMMss', new Date());
This provides me with the unique number that I need for printing (ie: 20100317102030). It works great as an inserted text field on my pdf.
My problem is that when I use the "create custom stamp" as in other tutorials by inserting this new text field, it will not update (or display) on print, even though it was set the exact same way as the custom stamp I got working using the Adobe dynamic stamp information.
Can you offer any advice on how I can get this to work as a custom stamp? I would rather not have to create both a stamp and then overlay the text field manually as I have hundreds of documents (maybe more) to do this for.
Also, as an aside, if I could get this to work, I would also like to add Login ID that updates in the same manner as my custom date format (but one problem at a time I guess! )
Thanks for any and all help that you can provide. I looked through these forums and elsewhere, but I don't seem to see anyone else with the same problems (with solutions posted).
I really wish Adobe had a Custom Stamp creator as part of their program, with the dynamic option. It would be so easy for them and save a lot of users so much time.

Stamps are just like a inked rubber stamp, except in Acrobat you can suppress printing them and you can move them. So if you use a dated "Faxed" stamp when you fax a document, even though you can adjust the stamp before affixing the stamp, once the document is stamped the date on the document can not be changed or moved. It appears, that the use of a stamp might not be the best solution.
"Interactive" means Acrobat JavaScript programing.
With JavaScript not only can you insert variable data but also fixed text strings or a combination of both.
So your script could be updated to something like:
var f = this.getField("Today");
f.value = "Printed : " + util.printd('yyyymmddhMMss', new Date());
http://forums.adobe.com/message/1333261#1333261
Getting the 'login name" will require some special JavaScript code being added to an application level JavaScript folder that runs upon initialization and is the data or function created is then accessed by your PDF. This file will need to be installed on each user's system.

Custom Dynamic Stamp Java not working in WIN7

I currently was upgraded from WinXP to WIN7. Running Acrobat Prof 8 with all the updates. I created a dozen customized dynamic stamps that grab info and date/time from the system. Using the following java, the stamps worked perfectly.
event.value = (new Date()).toString();
AFDate_FormatEx(",m/d/yy");
event.value = " " + (identity.name || identity.loginName) + " - " + event.value;
In WIN 7, I am getting a long date and time with no identity.
HELP

GK,
I tried a completely new file from scratch, used your script and it did not pick up the user, it used a long date format, etc. Here is a sample of what I got. I only want the short date and name. No time zone. No name appears. It should be KPanthen.

Creating custom dynamic stamps in Acrobat 9

I have Acrobat 9 Pro and I'm trying to create my own custom dynamic stamp. I have the image in a PDF format and I can create custom stamp out of it but I can't figure out how to add the dynamic fields. It's pretty easy in Acrobat 8 but there's just no info on how to do it in 9. I've gone through the web, lynda.com, and nothing. Some from Adobe, please help wtih this! Thanks.

Can I create a custom-scripted dynamic stamp in Acrobat Standard or do I have to buy Acrobat Pro?

I am researching options for the company I work for to take it's invoicing system paperless and I need to know if I can create a custom-scripted dynamic stamp in Acrobat Standard or is that possible only in Acrobat Pro?

You can create a custom dynamic stamp in Std. and Pro. and you can use the dynamic stamp in Reader as well. Here is an infographic on Creating a Custom Dynamic Stamp in Acrobat XI.

Acrobat 9 dynamic stamp customized transfer from previous version

client of mine made a custom dynamic stamp and they can get it set up fine (dynamic field inserted in the stamp) and in the correct folder where it pulls the other stamps, but it is not finding it in the stamp list in the program, is what they've told me. This was functioning properly in our old computer when they were an earlier version of Acrobat. I want to know how I can get it to show up. The custom stamp I believe is a jpg cause it was created in photoshop.

The Acrobat/Reader stamp file specification has not changed sinced Acrobat/Reader 6. So if the stamped worked in an earlier verion it will work in Acrobat 9 and later as well. Since she recreated the stamp it is very likely that she did something different, because it sounds like the stamp was made incorrectly.
Not all pages in the stamp file are stamps. Stamp pages are marked in a special way. You typically make a dynamic stamp by first creating a static stamp, and then manually modifying that static stamp. So, did she create a static stamp first? and does this static stamp show up where it should on the stamp menus? This is the starting point for a dynamic stamp, and the first thing that should be checked before adding dynamic features to the stamp file. See the link below for the "All About PDF Stamps" book. You'll find everything you need to know about creating stamps there.
BTW: it is not a good idea to add new custom stamps to the built-in stamps, and especially if it means editing the original built-in dynamic stamp file. It is much better to create your own stamp categories.
You also need to restart Acrobat after creating the dynamic stamp file.

Copy Dynamic Stamp Between Users

I've created a Dynamic and Interactive stamp using Adobe 9 PRO and was wondering the best way to implement the stamp company-wide. My understanding is that you must create the stamp image prior to adding the custom fields and script calculations. I've tried to move the completed stamp into the users "Documents and Settings" folder but once I create the stamp on the new local machine...it becomes static (as expected). Thanks in advance!

What product and version is the user using?
You need to adjust the location of the user stamps for the userID and product version.
Use the following JavaScript to locate the user's stamp file location:
app.getPath('user', 'stamps');

Request Offerings not showing up for custom User role in SMPortal

Hello All,
I've created a custom End User role and scoped it to the domain users group.
To this role I want to show a specific set of Request Offerings on the portal
For that Purpose I created a new Service Offering and added these Request Offerings to it.
I then went on to create a Catalog Group and added the Service Offering to it.
I then created the custom user role based on the EndUser role and allowed them to see all Forms, all Queues, All CI's and on the Catalog group I select that they could only see the Catalog Group which I just created.
I then logged in into the SMPortal and was expecting that my Service Offering would be shown to them.
However, they don't see the service offering.
What could cause this?
Is there something I'm missing?
Thanks in advance!
Filip

You have to add the Service Offerings and the Request Offerings in the Catalog Group. Nesting doesn't work because Service Offerings and Request Offerings are different types of objects.
This offers the option the manage the access to Service Offerings and Request Offerings very granular if needed. For instance you can control access to a Service Offering in one Catalog Group related to one user role (A) and use two additional Catalog Groups
with different Request Offerings related to other user roles (B) and (C). Result will lead to:
User in Role A and B -> Can see Service Offerings A containing Request Offerings B
User in Role A and C -> Can see Service Offerings A containing Request Offerings C
User in Role A, B and C -> Can see Service Offerings A containing Request Offerings B and C
User in Role A only -> Don's see anything because of the missing permission on any Request Offering. So the "empty" Service Request won't show up in the portal.
Hope his helps.

How to specify a custom User-Agent for an HTTPService call?

I'm trying to have HTTPService send a custom User-Agent
string in the request headers but it seems to ignore the header=""
method.
Is there any documentation on how to do this? Or would I have
to use URLRequest instead?

Hi,
The column's style classes will be added on the <td> elements, not the header sadly. So for your use case you'll have to place the class on the table itself then use the selector
af|table.MyStyleClass af|column.formHeader::header-text{}Sadly this will affect all columns, not just one so I don't know if it's going to fir your need.

Clean Install With Custom User Id

Hello
From experience I am aware of problems in our network when we have 2 users with accounts which have the same User Id. For this reason I have always tried to ensure each User on our network has a unique User Id.
I am upgrading several User's iMacs to Mountain Lion and I will format their drives and perform a clean install. Is it possible, using Terminal, to perform a clean install but specify a custom User Id?
Many thanks.
Chris

It would probably be easier to change your Apple ID password. This would allow you to continue downloading past iTunes/App Store purchases.
Apple ID - Manage
Do you have a backup? If not, backup before doing anything because an erase and reinstall will cause you to lose all your data.
If your MacBook came with Mountain Lion pre-installed, you would have to purchase a copy from the App Store, but you can probably avoid that.
Boot to the Recovery Volume (command - R on a restart) or hold down the option key during a restart and select Recovery Volume. Run Disk Utility Verify/Repair and Repair Permissions. Then select the Erase tab. Format is Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Erase and then reinstall the OS.

When you reboot, use Setup Assistant to restore your data.

Mapped a custom user profil propertie office 365

Hi,
I created a customer user profil propertie named ="CodeUO" , Type Text.
I have ticked the index and alias box
then I created the property bag for this property.
but when I user the search
https://--------/_api/search/query?querytext='*'&sourceid='B09A7990-05EA-4AF9-81EF-EDFAB16C4E31'&selectproperties='CodeUO,AccountName'
I have this result:
-<d:element m:type="SP.KeyValue">
<d:Key>CodeUO</d:Key>
<d:Value m:null="true"/>
<d:ValueType>Null</d:ValueType>
</d:element>
Best Regards,
ND

You have to perform a new crawl of the user profiles in order to get values in the properties. So you have new user profile properties which are getting corresponding crawled properties called People:PropertyName, and you have mapped these to two managed
properties in the search schema named CodeUO and AccountName..right?

Differnce Between Customer & User Exits

Pls tell me
What are various types of exits?
with Regards,
Manmeet singh

Hi Manmeet,
Differnce Between Customer & User Exits
In contrast to customer exits, user exits allow developers to access and modify program components and data objects in the standard SAP System. On upgrade, each user exit must be checked to ensure that it conforms to the standard system.
There are the following types of user exit:
User exits that use INCLUDEs -
These are customer enhancements that are called directly in the program.
User exits that use tables -
These are used and managed using Customizing.
Customer Exit
SAP creates customer exits for specific programs, screens, and menus within standard applications. These exits do not contain any functionality. Instead, the customer exits act as hooks. You can hang your own add-on functionality onto these hooks.
If you want to enhance the functionality of your SAP System, you should take advantage of the exits available in standard applications. There are two main reasons why you should use exits rather than modifying SAP software yourself. Add-ons attached to exits have the advantage that:
· They do not affect standard SAP source code
When you add new functionality to your SAP System using SAPs exits, you do not alter the source code of standard SAP programs in any way. The code and screens you create are encapsulated as separate objects. These customer objects are linked to standard applications, but exist separately from SAPs standard software package.
· They do not affect software updates
When you add new functionality to your SAP System using SAPs exits, your objects (called customer objects) must adhere to strict naming conventions. When it comes time to upgrade a to a new software release, customer objects names ensure that they will not be affected by any changes or new additions to the standard software package.
Customer exits are not available for all programs and screens found in the SAP System. You can only use customer exits if they already exist in the SAP System. You find find more information about locating applications with pre-defined exits in Locating Applications that have Exits
User Exits:
User exits allow you to add additional functions to the SAP standard.
Programs with user exits contain subroutine calls at certain points in their syntax that are identified by the prefix USEREXIT. The actual user exits are located in an include that has been assigned to a module pool. This is where customers can include any changes (enhancements) that they want to make to the system. These includes are always processed during program flow.
Advantage: In principle, customers can modify anything they want that is found in the include (tables, structures, and so forth).
Disadvantage: SAP cannot check the individual enhancements themselves which often leads to errors in the enhancement process.
Types of Exits.
1)MENU EXITS
2)FUNCTION EXITS
3)TABLE EXITS
4)SCREEN EXITS
5)KEYWORD EXITS
6)FIELD EXITS
Menu Exits
Menu exits add items to the pulldown menus in standard SAP applications. You can use these menu items to call up your own screens or to trigger entire add-on applications.
Function Module Exits
Function module exits add functions to R/3 applications. Function module exits play a role in both menu and screen exits.
When you add a new menu item to a standard pull down menu, you use a function module exit to define the actions that should take place once your menu is activated.
Function module exits also control the data flow between standard programs and screen exit fields. SAP application developers create function module exits by writing calls to customer functions into the source code of standard R/3 programs.
These calls have the following syntax:
CALL CUSTOMER-FUNCTION 001.
screen exits:

Function Module Exits
Function module exits add functions to R/3 applications. Function module exits play a role in both menu and screen exits.
When you add a new menu item to a standard pull down menu, you use a function module exit to define the actions that should take place once your menu is activated.
Function module exits also control the data flow between standard programs and screen exit fields. SAP application developers create function module exits by writing calls to customer functions into the source code of standard R/3 programs.
These calls have the following syntax:
CALL CUSTOMER-FUNCTION 001.
Field Exits
Field exits allow you to create your own programming logic for any data element in the Dictionary. You can use this logic to carry out checks, conversions, or business-related processing for any screen field. Example: The data element BBBNR identifies a companys international location number. You might want to set up your R/3 System so that all international location numbers are larger than 100.
The field exit concept lets you create a special function module that contains this logic.
You assign the special function module to the data element BBBNR. You then assign the module to any programs and screens in which users can add new international location numbers. When you activate your field exit, the system automatically triggers your special routine whenever a user enters a company location number.
In 4.6c, you can use "RSMODPRF" program to create field exits.
Screen exits:
