Inserting user text into .pdf

I’m creating an interactive presentation using PowerPoint and Adobe Captivate 4 (I may upgrade to version 5 soon, though). I’d like to create “reflection” slides in my presentation where I pose several questions, and users can type their thoughts into a text entry box. Then, I’d like them to have the option of printing those reflections. Ideally, I’d like the user text to be inserted into a formatted .pdf – meaning that I’d create a .pdf with a title, headers, etc., and the user text would be placed in the appropriate spots. Is that possible? If not, any thoughts on a different way to approach it?

Thanks, for the reply.
I figured it out. I just open the old session and go to track 1 where the clips are lined up. At least on my system, I left click the "A" tool beyond the end of track 1 and this "activates" the track for recording. Then I move with the V tool to where I want to add some stuff and start dictating, by pusing the main record button.
When I'm through, I just selected the clips that were overwritten, and drag them to the right and line them up where I want them (I can move them all just by drag selecting them).
Then I just bounce to new track to create a new mixdown, noise correct it again, and save over the previous file. Actually, pretty easy, once I figured it out, but as far as I can see, no actual instructions.

  • Automated insertion of text into Sales order header

    Hi Guru's,
    we are recently working on specific request for automated creation of sales documents.
    On each sales order there is a need to update specific fields on header level with default values - no problem.
    There is also need to insert specific text into Header text: "Service reendered YYYY-MM-DD" into each single order generated by this automated way.
    Do you know any functionality that we can implement into our solution or any other solution which is coming to your mind?
    THANK YOU!!!

    Hi
    Please try with the following user exits.
    USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELD_TO_TVCOM_H
    You can use this user exit to influence text determination for header texts. For example, you can include new fields for text determination or fill fields that already exist with a new value.
    USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELD_TO_TVCOM_I
    You can use this user exit to influence text determination for item texts. For example, you can include new fields for text determination or fill fields that already exist with a new value.

  • Use of XMP Custom Panel to automate insertion of metadata into PDF file.

    I'm new to the world of XMP so please bear with me.
    I'm exploring ways of automating the insertion of metadata into PDF files, either at the time of creation, or through a batch process. The metadata values for a given set of documents would be static, so these could be "hard coded" into the mechanism use to insert the metadata.
    Would an XMP Custom Panel be something I could use to achieve this goal. If so, can you please provide some details on how to go about doing this.
    Thanks in advance.

    Were you able to find a solution to this problem? I am having the same issue.

  • Adobe Acrobat 9/Win7 - Inserting Word documents into PDF file intermittently leads to missing or garbled text?

    Heya.
    I have a user who is creating a PDF essentially compiled from inserting word documents into the position she wants inside of the PDF.
    The problem is that sometimes this leads to missing or garbled text. For example, 6-8.1 is displayed as 6- .1. Which is just plain weird.
    Other times, the text looks garbled or uneven. She turned off her PC but I took screenshots of both of these scenarios. I fear that I am not going to be able to retroactively fix the corruption in this document for her.
    She says she's using very standard fonts. Like Arial. I asked if she could locate the original Word document that produced the garbled text, just for a sanity check. The problem is that her co-worker may have been the only one with that particular word document (there are probably hundreds which compile this PDF...) and IF she has it, she might not be able to locate it on her PC TO check what the original text is. Yikes.
    Google-fu turns up very little. I tried the guidance in this document - https://answers.acrobatusers.com/We-combine-PDF-document-ends-corrupt-What-problem-q197619 .aspx[2] and a Save-As but no avail.
    This also turns up but is not applicable to Acrobat 9 I believe:  http://blogs.adobe.com/acrobatineducation/2010/02/get_rid_of_that_bloat_in_your.html[3]
    She states that she can manually fix the document but after a while it gets corrupted again? But I haven't observed that and she might have just fed me that to amplify the problem.
    I will be able to post screenshots when she turns on her computer tomorrow.

    Here are the two instances of corruption we have come across.
    http://imgur.com/nPztMYm
    http://imgur.com/wHM12e2
    Edit:  A LITTLE MORE INFO.  I am able to select the corrupted text, paste it into Notepad with all the characters intact.  So the characters are THERE.  they are just not being displayed correctly.
    Edit:  They also do not print correctly.  The page prints with characters missing, and she wants to print this document, so that is going to be an issue.

  • Insert editable picture into PDF form?

    Good day,
    I am creating editable marketing flyers for a client.  I'm opening my PDF (originally created in Illustrator) in Acrobat and adding editable form feilds for the end user to add their contact information to each piece.  The enduser also wants to add a photo with their contact info.  Is there a way to create this as part of the form?  Ultimately, I'm wanting them to be able to insert a picture into a specified area and not have to resize the photo.  Is this possible in Acrobat professional?
    Any information would be greatly appreciated!  I'm working in CS3 and Acrobat 8, on a mac.
    Cheers,
    Lilly

    This post has been invaluable for me! Thanks for everyone input. I have used the event.target.buttonImportIcon(); javascript to create PDF's the user can import, and it works great. However I now have on last challenge and I am hoping someone on this forum can help out with. Is there anyway (with a little javascript on the button) to have the image the user uploads flip upside down? I have a document that needs to be folded in half, and it would be perfect if I could have the user upload the image to both buttons, but have one button flip the image upside down. I know I could have the user do that image flipping and re-saving on their own, but I am trying to simplify things. Any ideas here would be helpful.
    Thanks!

  • Is there a way to auto-insert some text into a new ticket in Spiceworks?

    In our old ticketing system, it automatically inserts some text (Issue Impact, Procedure, etc) into every ticket, and we'd like to do the same in Spiceworks.

  • Inserting Fillable forms into PDFs converted from word

    I need some help with inserting a fillable form I created in Live Cycle.  When I go to insert the form into a file that was originally created in word and saved as a PDF,I receive a message (see below)
    I need to be able to find a way to insert the fillable form to the end of a regular PDF, without losing the capabilities of the form, including a submit by email button, which I tried both as the Email submit button and the regular button, formatted to submit a email in response.
    I don't know if there is some settings or preferences that I can change to be able to insert the form, but I need it to be one document.I know that this is not impossible, as I have seen other documents in this formatting, I just cant seem to be able to get it.

  • Inserting text into PDFs in Preview.

    When editing a PDF in preview, I create a text box where I want to put text but i can only have one font or, more importantly, one font style (bold, italics etc) within that text box. How can i make just several words italics??

    Apparently, the only way I have found to mix font styles in Preview is to create two text boxes and manually align them for appearance. You can change font color from the Preview edit sub-toolbar or the font dialog box.

    I also realise that this is a more MYSQL titled problem, but those forums look rubbish <_<

    Investigate PreparedStatement.
    Currently you're trying to insert a value "Ufirst_name" instead of the value of the variable called Ufirst_name.
    It's possible to do this (you could do something like this: "... '" + UfirstName + "' ...") but DEFINITELLY NOT RECOMMENDED. Instead use a prepared statement.

  • How do I insert additional text into a form after it has been created? - Acrobat Pro XI

    I am trying to add additional text and fields into the middle of a form I have previously created.  I can copy and paste the information in there but it does not shift the lines below it down.  Is there any easy way to accomplish this without having to recreate the entire form?
    I appreciate any help I can get.
    ~Shannon

    If you need to make such changes to the layout of the form, you should go back to the source document, edit it, and generate a new PDF. You can then replace the pages of the old document with the new pages. Any fields that you've already added will be retained and can be move to their new positions and you can add any new ones you need.

  • How to insert dummy image into PDF

    I am trying to insert signatures into our Custom Purchase Order that I am building in Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro. I can find plenty of documentation on how to do this via an RTF in Word Template Builder, but nothing on inserting the dummy image. Currently, we are using Sigfile field in report with a URL link to the jpeg of the signature, at runtime, only the link shows up on the PDF not the picture of the signature, any suggestions would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Barbara

    Barbara,
    I think what you are asking for is something similiar I have done for a check printing report where you have a voided image of a signature, then place the real signature at run time.
    So insert the dummy image into your RTF. Have the path to the real image in the XML file, and then in the properties for the image, there is a Web tab. Put the following there:
    url:{CP_SIGNIMAGEPATH}
    Where CP_SIGNIMAGEPATH is the path to the image.
    Let me know if this works or you.

    Brett

  • How can I insert an Image into PDF document programmatically?

    I am trying to work with a pdf programmatically through FoxPro using objects:

    createObject(”AcroExch.AvDoc”)
    createObject(”AcroExch.PDDoc”)
    I am able to open acrobat, add / delete pages, fill in some fields with the “AFormAut.App” object. and finally print the pdf.
    I print Hundreds of books for students in our college, each student gets a book specificaly tailered for the student.
    Everything goes programmatically.
    Now I want to insert images into the pdf, also programmatically.
    I cant find a which object to work with?
    I wish there was a way to do it just as I did with the things i mentioned above.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,
    So where do I goet the plugins or how do I know which plugin would enable me
    to work with images?
    Now I got to another thing that I need, I need to flatten pdf
    programmatically, and don't know how.
