Dynamic Stamps with Text Input Options

You guys were so helpful I thought I'd give this another go. I'm trying to create a stamp like the one used in this tutorial (http://blogs.adobe.com/acrolaw/2009/05/add_dynamic_exhibit_stamps_in_ac.html), but based off of the attached image. The tutorial is great if you want to work off of the existing file, but I can't quite figure out how to make it work for creating something from scratch. Bascially I need people to be able to input their name and date, and have it not change after it's been entered. Thanks!

Have you looked at the links to the other web sites for the more advanced tutorials?

Text input options missing

Hi,
After running some updates yesterday, the "show text input options" is no longer available in the options. Neither can I select suretype when writing a message. Would appreciate some help.
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Had to re-boot after removing an application and everything back to normal! What bugs me is that my service provider tech never brought up a re-boot but rather wanted me to delete all my data and start all over!

Dynamic stamps with Acrobat Pro X

Help needed!
How to create own dynamic stamps with Acrobat Pro X, without any knowledge of programming.
It was very easy with the program used before (Nuance); unfortunally it's not possible to export from Nuance to Acrobat.
Thanks in advance
vtosi

It can't be done without using a script, and not a very simple one, either.
There are detailed tutorials about how to do it, for example here:
http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials
If you're interested in someone to create the stamp (and all the required
scripts) for you, feel free to contact me by PM or at [email protected] .

Dynamic stamps with multiple editable fields

Our Accounting department wants to go completely digitable with invoices.
For them to be able to do this they require a stamp that has several editable fields such as
General Ledger number
Financial Controllers name
Comments
Date
Approval status
They want to be able to stamp a PDF invoice and then fill in the fields manually.
I cannot find a stamp that will do this. I tried a couple add-in stamp apps for Acrobat 9 but they did not offer this kind of feature.
Thanks

Hi teede,
We have begun publishing a large amount of information on creating/developing custom dynamic stamps at www.pdfscripting.com due to the number of requests for information on these powerful PDF workflow tools. It is a membership site requiring a paid membership for full access to all content, but we recently published a free video "PDF Stamps Gone Wild!" on the home page under Featured Videos that shows many possibilities for what you can do with custom dynamic stamps.
We'll be adding downloads of some the stamp files shown in the video over the next few weeks.
Hope this helps,

Dv video time stamp with analog input

Hi,
I have a dv video which I want to time stamp with a analog input. For the video, which is dv brought into the computer with ieee1394, LabView calls up a C++ program which then stores the video. Simultaneously, in the program which calls up the C++, an analog signal is also stored (seperately). I know it sounds tricky as well as messy but this is the best we've been able to work out, given the uncorroperative nature of LabView with dv camera. Does anyone have suggections for time stamping these two signals so that I know exactly where in the video the analog signal occurs? The PCI board we use is the NI 6014, which I know is timestamp capable, but I dont know if it can stamp the video feed since it doesnt come in through the NI card.
All thanks in advance for any help!
Daniel

Daniel,
Does your DV camera have any sort of timing or triggering signals? Without these, it will be virtually impossible to correlate measurements. It is cetainly possible to accurately time an analog input with your DAQ card, but correlating these to the digital video would be extremely difficult. Is this video streaming in real time? Or are you reading it off of an already-recorded tape? If this video is streaming in real time, with an acquisition started in software, I would suggest attempting to start the software DV reading at the same time as your DAQ task. If you do have an external signal that can trigger the video acquisition, then I would suggest using that same signal to start your analog acquisition.
Hope this helps,

Mail - Subject line automatically deletes with text input

Another 'annoying' intermittent issue with 10.5.1 upgrade.
When I begin a new mail message, the subject line automatically deletes and highlights what would be the affected number of characters when I begin typing the subject. Once I input 4 characters, the line is deleted. It occurs 75% of the time.
Anyone else having the same issues, or have a possible fix?

would you happen to have a plug in or input manager such as rapidowrite or text expander or some other sort of app installed with Mail and AB by any chance? (if you have rapidowrite, i believe there is a new version that is more compatible with leopard, recently released.)
if so, then i would suggest you quit mail, then uninstall/get rid of these, drag them to the desktop, launch mail again and see if that clears the issue.
you can find these plug-ins in homefolder/library/mail/bundles and in homefolder/library/address book plug-ins
hope this helps

Help with text message options

Is there a way to adjust the size of the text in text messages on my Curve 8530? Or maybe make them bold or change colors? I've tried other apps that let you do this but I really like the way the native SMS works. Thanks for any help.
Got my first ever Blackberry on 8/10/2010
Curve 8530

1. Put a 0 somewhere in your sheet.
2. CTRL+C in this 0 cell.
3. Select the column(s) which you want to convert to number.
4. Paste Special > Add (under operation section)
5. Now, this will convert that column completely to Numeric even if something is left out in your manual method.
6. You may delete the 0 which you put in step 1.
7. Make sure that lookup value is also numeric.

Can I balloon engineering prints in Adobe Reader or Acrobat? Create a dynamic stamp w/ Java Script?

I am trying to establish a very simple way to balloon prints with character numbers; below I have uploaded an example screen shot. My end goal is for the user to select a dynamic stamp (a circle with a number in the center) and it start numbering with 1 and then increment by 1 yet the user is placing each balloon in its respective location, resetting for each PDF document, one addition would be to allow the balloon numbers to be edited like a text box after they have been created in case there is an error in balloon placement etc. Is this possible? I have programming experience in other languages, but have only built a few dynamic stamps with time stamp information provided by java script code.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated!

Yes it's possible with dynamic stamps, but the code is rather messy as it has to keep a running total.
See http://www.pdfscripting.com/public/department53.cfm for some samples (and the definitive book on creating your own dynamic stamps), and Rick Borstein's blog for some basic samples that put exhibit numbers on legal documents.

Create stamp with empty textfield

I want to create a dynamic stamp with an empty textfield.
After placing the stamp on a drawing I want to be able to type a random text in the textfield.
Can anyone help me?

That's not possible, I'm afraid.
Once a stamp has been applied it is flattened and can't be edited anymore, including any form fields in it.
What you can do, however, is prompt the user to enter the text into a response box, and then populate the text field into the stamp just before it is applied.
Have a look at this tutorial to see how it's done: http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/2007/02/dynamic_stamp_secrets

Dynamic stamp rotates after creation, why?

Afternoon,
Acrobat X Pro
Windows 7 Pro
I've been finagling with a dynamic stamp with user-populated fields/javascript and one version (which I hammered out a few months back) works great, the second version (which I've recently picked up) is not doing so well. I've got the stamp page size/background/javascript/form text fields all worked out but after I've created the stamp I notice that it's rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise... Any ideas as to why? I'm still working with it and will report back if I find a solution.
Any/all help is greatly appreciated, thanks!
Ted

Best solution I've found is to simply rotate the stamp page in it's PDF but it doesn't explain why this particular stamp's orientation at creation is incorrect. When placing the stamp on a document the incorrect 90 degree counterclockwise orientation dimensions are still visible (2.75" H x 1.8" W) and the preview stamp image is stretched/distorted; but on placement the stamp is correct (1.8" H x 2.75" W).
I could have also just left it with the incorrect orientation and had the field users rotate it themselves after populating the fields but I don't want to hear 'but why isn't it this way or that way' any more often than I need to.
I still welcome any/all assistance to more permanently correct this problem.
Thanks again,
Ted

Text input popup

I am writing a simple RSS reader app in Flex (for AIR).
I have a "change feed" button in my app. I want this to
launch a popup with text input, to take the URL as a string and
return it to my main app. This seems like something that should be
incredibly, and I'm missing something. Any help would be
apreciated.

You can create such a popup with a TitleWindow and
PopupManager:
------------ MyPopup.mxml ----------------
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<mx:TitleWindow xmlns:mx="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.managers.PopUpManager;
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:TextInput width="200" />
<mx:Button label="Done"
click="PopUpManager.removePopUp(this);"/>
</mx:TitleWindow>
--------------------- Test.mxml ----------------------
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.managers.PopUpManager;
import mx.core.IFlexDisplayObject;
import components.MyPopup;
private function showMyPopup():void {
var helpWindow:IFlexDisplayObject =
PopUpManager.createPopUp(this, MyPopup, false);
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:Button click="showMyPopup();" label="Show My
Popup"/>
</mx:Application>

Where do I find Dynamic stamp files on a networked mac?

Hi there,
I am trying to create a dynamic stamp with a form field in Acrobat XI pro. I have been told that once you have loaded in the stamp image to create the stamp you then must open this stamp file in order to add the form fields. From the reading I have done I believe you should find the stamp files by right clicking on the application in finder, going to show package contents and then following the path Contents > Plug-ins > Comments.acroplugin > Stamps > ENU
However when I try to follow this path I get as far as Plug-ins and then hit an empty folder? The only examples on the web for this method have been with Acrobat 9 and I am using a networked mac so I don't know whether either of these factors has any bearing on my problem?
If anyone can point me in the direction of where to find my stamp files I would be very grateful. (The stamp I created appears in the stamps in Acrobat so I know it must be saved somewhere!)
I am using Acrobat XI pro (Adobe CC) on a networked mac version 10.9.3.
Thank you in advance!

There are two possible locations. The one you're mentioned is for the built-in stamps, and the other is for user-created stamps. Here are the two locations on my system for Acrobat 11:
/Macintosh HD/Users/georgejohnson/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Acrobat/11.0/Stamps/
/Macintosh HD/Applications/Adobe Acrobat XI Pro/Adobe Acrobat Pro.app/Contents/Built-in/Comments.acroplugin/Stamps/
These locations are given by running the following JavaScript in the interactive JavaScript console (cmd+J):
app.getPath("user", "stamps");
app.getPath("app", "stamps");

Specified url text input type of form in DW CS5

If I wanted to dilspay a text input type form on the site's last page, Will the url link function during my table data display? I'm assuming it will be hoverable and active as a link if the text input type form used to submit the link to the database is set up properly? The text input type form creates a record that is automatically saved on a database that I can then use to check for display errors. What other type of url links work with text input type forms in DW.

I don't understand what you are asking. Can you say more about this url link function, and the text input type form?
