Everytime I add a custom stamp to a document it crashes

We have created some custom stamps for doing electonic editing for shop drawings. After I added the stamps we use the flatten command so the stamps can not be edited or changed and after I add several stamps or sometimes just 1 or 2 adobe crashes and I lose the work that I have done
OMG please help

I suspect what you have done is taken a contact and done an "Add to Favorites". If you do that, you're given a choice of phone number(s), email address(es), and whether to add this as a FaceTime contact. If you've chosen FaceTime, indeed you'll only be given the FaceTime choice, because that's what you chose when you set up that Favorite.

Adding custom stamps to many pages in white space.

Is there any way to add a custom stamp to every page of a PDF book and having it placed into the white space on the document? I have found a script that will do every thing except for the 'white space' part of my query, so I don't think I will have much luck.
Watermarks will probably not work in this instance, the stamp needs to be noticible but not in the way, and the watermark will encouter the same placement problem (as it is preferable if the stamp/watermark is not getting the in way of the drawing pdf's content).
Any help will be appreciated, just let me know if you need more clarification.

The question is what do you mean by "white space"? Is it always the same area on the page (like a 2" margin), or is it a different location for each page, where there happens to be no text or images? The former is possible, the latter only partially, and is very difficult to implement with a script.

Adding a custom stamp to a large number of files.

I need to build a batch process to add a custom stamp to a large number of PDF files. I want to do this without displaying tne files. I'm not sure where to go to learn about how to do this. I've found some sample Jscript code for the for stamps but don't really understand how to invoke the code in a batch process. Thanks for th guidance. Bianca

It should be noted the "Batch Processing" is only available with the Professional or better versions.

Acrobat Pro custom stamp keeps duplicating with mouse move

Using Acrobat X Pro if we add a custom stamp to a PDF document, every time we move the mouse (or onboard pointer) it duplicates the stamp in a new location. This is new behavior & didn't used to do this. Anyone ever see this before or know of a fix?

It sounds like you have the option to keep the stamp tool selected ticked on, which means that after you apply a stamp it will automatically generate a new one. If you want to disable it right-click the tool and untick the "Keep Tool Selected" option.

Sharing Custom Stamp Palette?

Hello,
I have created a Custom Stamp Palette, which is working great. I now would like to share this stamp palette with other's in my office, without them having to recreate the stamp palette on each individual computer. Is there a way I can save my cusom stamp palette, and send it to my colleagues, and have them open it on their own computers and use it? Or do they each have to go through the steps of creating the custom stamp palette like I did? I have tried going to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat\plug_ins\Annotations\Stamps\ENU, and importing my custom stamps to the StandardBusiness.pdf document, but it doesn't seem to recognize my custom stamps. I can delete the default stamps from that document, and when I do, those stamps that I deleted no longer show up. I thought I might be able to add my own custom stamps to this location,and have them show up, but didn't work. I'd be surprised if Adobe didn't think of this in the beginning, I'm sure they knew people would want to share their custom stamp palette's. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Just add your custom stamp pdf file to the location, do not import your stamps into an existing stamp pdf file.

Sort stamps in Custom Stamp Palette

I would like to be able to sort the custom stamps in the Stamp Palette. Once I create custom stamps, they are forever in the order in which I created them. Please make it so that they can be rearranged using either drag-and-drop, or the "Move Up" and Move Down" action in the Create PDF from Multiple Files dialog box. Thanks.

Adding a custom report to a document set

Hi,
We are trying to add a custom report to a document set in OM. When a sales order is released, the sequence of events to occur is - a standard pick list report runs followed by the custom report(a despatch note).
However, I cannot associate the parameters so that the parameters that are driving the standard apps pick list report are also driving the custom report.
Anyone tried this before?
Thanks muchly

Eventually I figured this out. In 54, the edit dialog for the clickstream cloud is set up in the JS at:
     /libs/cq/personalization/widgets/source/analytics.init.js
Effectively the 'registration' of the various stores is hardcoded in this JS file, with lines like so:
     //eventinfodata
     reg.call(this, CQ_Analytics.EventDataMgr);
So, we could overlay the entire personalization widgets clientlib, but that seems crazy just to add one line of code.
So, what I've done is to write my own clientlib and bolded it onto the cq.personalization category (which the /libs/cq/personalization/widgets clientlib is part of). This JS sets up another listener (on the click of the edit button) which adds the additional tab to the edit dialog.

I want to create an 'editable' custom stamp.

I want to create an editable custom stamp.
I can scan in my stamp image in the create custom stamp tool, no problem.
But I would like to make several editable fields: date, reviewer's initials, submittal number.
Anyone know how to?
Thanks

You not only need to create a custom stamp, but you need to add dymanic form fields. See AUC Tutorials - Dynamic Stamps for more information.

Adding Custom Stamps in Acrobat Reader X

I'm wondering how users of Acrobat Reader X can add their own custom stamps to documents. I create collateral for sales people across the U.S. who like to add their own contact information to the pieces. They were doing this by using the custom stamp feature that I enabled using Acrobat Pro 9. One of our sales folks decided to update his Acrobat to the newer version and it doesn't seem to have the same capabilities. I know there is a Signature tool, but that isn't quite the same. Can anyone help me figure this out? I'd appreciate it.
Thanks.

Custom Stamp no longer worker in Acrobat X

I created a custom stamp using Adobe X; not sure it was working the way it was suppose to but it still met my needs.
I used a PDF form which I created using Word, added some form fields and saved it.
Added the PDF form file as a custom stamp.
Opened another PDF document and was able to insert the custom stamp.....and this is where I don't know if it really worked correctly or not. The stamp was basically an image, none of the fields were accessible; I thought a PDF form would act like a dynamic stamp but it didn't work as I expected.
But if I opened the original PDF of the stamp and filled in the form fields & saved it and then inserted the custom stamp again, all the fields were updated/filled in.
But then for some reason my custom stamp disappeared from stamp pull down menu. And now when I try to add it back it creates an anonymous PDF file with the current form fields filled in. If I open the original PDF stamp and change any of the form fields and save it, the custom stamp doesn't update when I go and insert it again.
And if I delete that anonymous PDF file, my custom stamp again disappears from the stamp pull down menu.
This now happens with any PDF file I use to create a custom stamp; Acrobat X creates an anonymous PDF file.
If anyone has any idea how to fix this problem, it would be greatly appreciated.

Behavior for PDFs is not handled by SharePoint, but rather Adobe Acrobat. Validate Adobe Acrobat's PDF browser extension has been disabled (you can do this via IE and I believe Adobe Acrobat has this option within it's own Preferences).

Custom stamp naming

I've created some custom stamps in Acrobat Standard X. I then edit the pdf in my stamps folder which contains the stamp and add text fields and use javascript to create a custom colculation script when the stamp is used (to bring up a prompt so the user can type text which will be added to the stamp). The script references the template name for the stamp. The name, which is randomly generated by acrobat when I create the stamp initially, is cumbersome. I'd like to give the template some unique name that is easier to remember rather than the random string generated by acrobat. How do I accomplish this? If I open the pdf in a text editor I can find the string but if I change it and save the file it corrupts the file. Thanks in advance for your help on this!

I'm confused. Following the instructions above I open the stamp file from the stamps folder. I select Tools>Document Processing>Page Templates. I select the template, with the randomly generated name, that corresponds to the stamp. In the Name: field I edit the stamp's name (everything between the # and the = symbols). Upon changing the name all buttons but the Close and the Add... buttons gray out. I click Add... and it adds a new template but leaves the original random-name template in the list. Can I now point to the newly added template in the code I have attached to my stamp or do I need to still point to the old template? Also, assuming I can now point to the new template, can I delete the old template? In the alternative, can I somehow change the original randomly generated name template without adding a new template? Thanks for your help!

Custom stamp images and print time

I've created a PDF of a page of sheet music output with fonts from a music notation program. From that I'm making a "sample" for my customers to view. I've added a text watermark. Up to this point everything is working well and the print spooling happens quickly.
However, I also want to add an image that looks like the torn corner of a page. To accomplish this, part of the image needs to be transparent so I've created both TIF (196k) and GIF (12k) versions of it in PhotoShop. Initially I tried to also add the image as a watermark but neither of these file formats are permitted with that function. Now I have created a custom stamp with each of these two images and saved files with both of them. They're about the same size ~180k.
My system (details below) is not exactly a rocket by today's standards but I do quite a bit of graphic work with it so I know what to expect in this regard. Sending the file with the TIF to print takes about 2:15 before printing begins. With the GIF it takes about 10 minutes. (I nodded off...)
I'm certainly open to other ideas about how to accomplish this. I could certainly save the file as a JPG, but because I need to keep the resolution quite high for both the text and music, the file sizes get quite a bit bigger.

I forgot to mention that those times reflect printing from within Acrobat. When I printed the TIF version from within Preview it took less than 30 seconds to start, but the transparent portion of the image did not appear completely transparent.

Script to Insert a Custom Stamp/Annotation

Hello,
I have created a new custom stamp and need to add a script to "Batch Processing" to insert this stamp on 1,000 drawings.
The sample script available from the JavaScript for Acrobat API Reference inserts a stamp from the "Standard" Stamp File.
The standard stamp file is located in the following directory:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 8.0\Acrobat\plug_ins\Annotations\Stamps\ENU\Standard.pdf
The script needs to be modified to insert a stamp from a custom stamp menu called "Doc Control" and the custom stamp name is "Received".
The actual file which contains the custom stamp is located in the following directory:
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Adobe\Acrobat\8.0\Stamps\Doc Control.pdf
Please find below the script which needs revising to include the new custom stamp.
var annot = this.addAnnot({
page: 0,
type: "Stamp",
name: "myStamp", rect: [400, 400, 550, 500],
contents: "Received Stamp!",
AP: "NotApproved" }); This part of the script needs revising to refer to the new custom stamp not the stamp in the standard stamp file?
Any assistance will be greatly appreciated - Thank you.

The AP property needs to be set to the Name of the stamp. When the stamp is created Acrobat automatically assigns it a stamp name. Not the name of the annotation when the stamp is placed, but a name for the stamp itself. See this article to figure out what this name is:

How to organize custom stamps in stamp pallette?

Is there a way to organize the stamps in the custom stamps pallette? I've added 20 custom stamps to the stamp pallette and I named the stamps consistently. However, the stamps seem to be organized in the pallette in the order that they were imported. I'd like to have the stamps organized or grouped alphabetically in the stamp pallette based on each custom stamp name. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
dlee388

Not exactly. After the stamp is applied it's flat and can't be edited. However, you can add form fields to the stamp template and have them edited just before it is applied, using a script that prompts the user to enter the values. This is called a "dynamic stamp" and creating it ranges from quite easy to very complicated, depending on the amount of type of data the user should enter.
If you're interested I could develop such a stamp for you, or you could try to do it yourself... There's plenty of information about it here and there's even an entire book about the subject by Thom Parker.
