Forms Auto-Fill Wizard Limited by Page Size

I've got a long perfume pricelist that I used to send out in Excel...recently I made it pretty with InDesign.
Using A4 size, the pricelist was 50 pages long and 7.5mb.  Using A4 width and 5000mm length, it's 3 pages and 900kb.
With 5000mm, Acrobat form Wizard couldn't recogize the fields for "Order QTY."  During the page pass, it would "Evaulating Knowledge Source."  I can't even find this error on Google, which is why I decided to post.
I ended up using 1485mm length (5 pages A4), and the wizard works the way it's supposed to........but it's takes an unusually long time to edit many (100+) form fields at a time.....

Create a new master page, do not put page numbering onto these pages.
Apply these Master pages to the first 3 pages.
On the first page in the pages panel (the actual first page) go to numbering and section options, change the numbering to Roman numerals.
Go to the fourth page (the page you want to start numbering from)
Go to Numbering and Section Options,
Start New Section
start numbering from page 1
Now page  4 will be numbered page 1.
For your second problem
A master frame on the master pages, make sure in the master page the two frames are linked
Go to the normal layout pages
When you import the text make sure that you shift click in the frame area that you've drawn for the text frame, but not anywhere near a margin guide, you'll see the mouse icon change to a Link type icon.
Press Shift Click when you see this.
If you press shift click near a margin guide it will possibly not pay attention to your master frame.

  • Pdf forms auto fill time field

    I need to have the time field auto fill with the current time when creating a new form.  I have looked hard but I just keep finding information on the date field.
    I appreciate any assistance - using adobe xi

    Each area where you can enter data into a PDF form in the normal view or non-Form Editing view is a field object. Each one of these fields has a name to identify that area or object form other form fields. If the names are the same the fields then those specific fields share many of the same values, the most important is the value of the field.
    This is an issue that needs to be addressed by the form's creator.

  • I have the form auto-fill as am add on. How do you turn it on when a form comes up for eg., a contribution?

    Before I got Firefox, I would always click on a button once and my form would be filled out for contributions. I want to do the same with Firefox but have to fill out each form in staid of using auto-fill. How do you turn it on. I have the add-on it just does not seem to work.

    That does sound messy and unexpected. Generally, property nodes should force an actual update synchronously. Are you sure the two are actually consecutive? Are they connected with an error wire or a reference? Can you upload a VI which demonstrates this?
    If that doesn't help, you could try using defer panel updates. The ideal would probably be to call it once before and once after, but you might need to place it in between as well.

  • 8600 Premium won't auto-select tray based on page size

    I just bought the 8600 Premium yesterday, and am absolutely flabbergasted to find that this printer, which is TOUTED for its full capability of handling legal-sized paper can't pick different sizes of paper from Tray 1 and Tray 2 in the same print job!!!  The printer recognizes Tray 2.  In fact, if I remove Tray 1, it prints from Tray 2 just fine.  However, I print a lot of .pdf files with a mixture of letter- and legal-sized pages.  I have used other printers where I can select "Choose paper source by PDF page size," and it will print the whole job, pulling letter-sized pages from Tray 1 and legal from Tray 2.  Why MAKE the 8600 Premium with two trays if it CAN'T pull paper from both trays, based on size settings, during the same job?!!

    Seriously?  --That is your "solution?!"
    Sure, if I needed a $1,000 printer only, I guess I could do that.  But I don't.  I need an inexpensive, truly functional dual-tray all-in-one.  I thought the HP8600 Premium was it.  Guess not.

  • Fillable form auto-indents itself off the page

    If I move a graphic in a fillable form, the moment I release the mouse button, the entire form shifts about 1 inch to the right. Now the right side of my form is cut off when printing. I am afraid to touch anything because Adobe Designer seems to pick and choose which graphics can and cannot be moved.

    I had the same problem, and realised that I had crop/registration marks outside the top left of the page as the PDF came from InDesign, and the designer produced the PDF for the printing press. whenever I moved any element on the page, the whole form moved right and down about 1 inch as well.
    I removed the crop/registration marks from the original PDF, then imported it again and had no trouble after that.

  • Auto-fill forms

    Where is the information stored that auto fills forms? I have a different address and email from when I purchased my Mac and every time I fill out a form, auto fill inserts my old information. Is there some way of updating to my new info?

    Safari->Preferences->AutoFill. Edit the three choices as desired. For the address and email, I suspect it's in your address book. For websites, it's in your login.keychain.

  • Load auto fill? and auto post info when composing and e-mail

    How do I load the Form auto fill function
    How do I add a signature block that is automatically added when composing an e-mail?

    Firefox doesn't do email, so it doesn't have a feature to autofill a signature.
    If you are using Firefox to access a webmail portal, that feature would be provided by that portal's software. Usually part of HTML format email, or "rich text" email. See your webmail service provider's help files or support forum for help with that.

  • Firefox fills in forms at a certain website (disabled auto-fill)

    After I had some problems with it (+ security issue) I decided to delete all passwords from my firefox.
    When I had done this most of the annoying auto-fill-in stuff was solved, however at one website (which I visit quite regularly) it seems to keep filling in one particular username and a password wherever there's a field for either one. Even if it's just a normal field with a title it'll fill in that username.
    How can I get rid of this?

    Use these steps to remove saved (form) data from a drop-down list:
    #click the (empty) input field on the web page to open the drop-down list
    #highlight an entry in the drop-down list
    #press the Delete key (on Mac: Shift+Delete) to remove it.

  • How to: Create a master form that auto-fills data into other pdf forms?

    I hope someone can please help me.  I have about 15 PDF forms that all require similar data entry (name, address etc). Can I create a master form that we fill in once per client, and then auto-fill in the matching data on the 15 forms? 
    I am not looking for an online solution as the information is highly sensitive. 
    I have already created a form in Acrobat X Pro with the 'master data', and created the (15) forms with identically named fields.  How I link the forms now to the master, I cannot figure out (after much searching).
    I have read similar questions on the same topic but have not found any answers.   I hope this time someone can please help.
    Many thanks in advance.

    Thank you!  I had just figured out how to export the data from the master as an FDF file and then import it to the other files.  I'm afraid I don't understand scripting to automate the process across multiple files.  To you mean with java script? 
    I've also thought about combining the forms, once we know which ones the particular client will need.  I have to see how it works in practice for my colleagues who will be using them.
    Thank you again.

  • Auto Fill Shipping Address from Billing Address on a New Form in SharePoint 2013

    I have a new form on SharePoint that has a few fields:
    Billing Address 1 (Single Line of Text)
    Billing Address 2 (Single Line of Text)
    Billing Address City (Single Line of Text)
    Billing Address State (Drop Down Menu)
    Billing Address Zip (Single Line of Text)
    Shipping Address is the Same (Yes/No Check Box)
    Shipping Address 1 (Single Line of Text)
    Shipping Address 2 (Single Line of Text)
    Shipping Address City (Single Line of Text)
    Shipping Address State (Drop Down Menu)
    Shipping Address Zip (Single Line of Text)
    The object is that a user would fill in the Billing Address Fields, then click the "Shipping Address is the Same" check box and the Shipping Address Fields would auto fill with the Billing Address Fields.
    I've tried using a CEWP and editing the form file in SharePoint Designer 2013. I just don't know how to make this Dynamic auto fill work! Any help is greatly appreciated!!!!

    Use a custom web part
    Design the form controls and in "Shipping Address is the Same" check box check event or button click,
    copy the same data into a label form contains the same fields but in form of labels instead of textbox and dropdownlist.
    try this solution and let me know.

  • Change Page Size of a Form

    I created a form in Adobe Acrobat Pro from a spreadsheet that I had printed to PDF. However, the PDF was in a landspace orientation rather than a portrait orientation. Does anyone know how I can change the page size and orientation of the form. I tried opening it importing it into LifeCycle Designer, but it messes up my java script calculations. If I print it to another PDF it no longer remains a fillable form.

    You really need to go back to your spreadsheet program and properly orient it there. Consider a PDF only a piece of paper that you created. You might be able to create the new PDF and then use replaces pages in the old PDF to keep the form fields. This last step is the typical process to keep the form fields. You will probably still have to move the fields. I am just not sure if the orientation and such will be kept with the replace pages, but that is where I would start. You could also copy the fields from one PDF to the other.

  • How do I auto fill a date field for an Adobe form?

    Hi. I am new to Acrobat. I would like to have Acrobat auto fill today's date in a date field when I open an acrobat form. I check the forum help and it indicated that I associate this javascript text to the field:
    var f = this.getField("Today"); if (f.valueAsString=="") f.value = util.printd("mm/dd/yyyy", new Date());
    However, when I try it out, nothing happens.
    Any clue as to what I am doing wrong?
    - Michael

    Hi M. Krebs,
    Is there a text field in the PDF labeled "Today" and set as a date field? And does the Date Options format set for the field match what is in the JavaScript (mm/dd/yyyy)?
    Best,
    Sara

  • I have a user on Adobe Reader X.  whenever they open a .pdf file, the form fields do not auto-fill u

    I have a user on Adobe Reader X.  whenever they open a .pdf file, the form fields do not auto-fill until you click in the box.  Is there a setting that can be changed to make the form open properly?

    Sounds like the form fields were filled in on a Mac using Mac Preview. This cannot be fixed in Reader only Acrobat. Ask the person who filled in the form to redo their work in Adobe Reader.
