Overflow text on to second text field.

My form contains a long descriptive text followed by a short line, the for text field. The next form text field is a long blank line onto which I want the overflow text from the above field to be placed. How can I do this whith Acrobat 8 Mac OSX 10.4
Thank you

Ah ok, you are probably not in the right forum then. This one is for XFA-based forms built with Designer (accessed through Forms->Start Form Wizard, Create a PDF Form from scratch) and not the in-built Acrobat Form->Add Or Edit Fields. I dont think the in-built fields have the funtionality you are looking for but you can ask in http://forums.adobe.com/community/acrobat/forms

  • Question on "text flow" with two text fields:

    Hi Folks,
    I was hoping you could help me to see if this is possible with Livecycle Designer, any assistance would be much appreciated:
    I'm populating a dynamic pdf and have the need to have multiple lines of text composed of two text fields (name and description) where name is bold text followed by description in regular text for example:
    Item 1 Name Sample: This is the item one description, adding some lorem ipsum text to show how it would flow across multiple lines here Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, defunctam.Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, ingens ad te ad nomine Hesterna. Pentapoli naves non ait Cumque ego dum. Scelus patrem in rei.
    Item 2 Name Sample: This is the item two description, adding  some lorem ipsum text to show how it would flow across multiple lines  here Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, defunctam.Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,  ingens ad te ad nomine Hesterna. Pentapoli naves non ait Cumque ego dum.  Scelus patrem in rei exultant deo apprehendit in fuerat construeret in  rei sensibilium acciperem qui enim est se vero diam ille. Agimus nolo me  testatur sed. Descendi eam ad.
    Item 3 Name Sample: This is the item three description, adding  some lorem ipsum text to show how it would flow across multiple lines  here Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, defunctam.Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,  ingens ad te ad nomine Hesterna. Pentapoli naves non ait Cumque ego dum.  Scelus patrem in rei.
    I have a subform for each item that contains two fields [itemName] [itemDescription], is there any way to do this without combining them into one textfield with rich text on?
    Thanks,

    Hi Phill,
    You could use floating fields, where the inputs are hidden and bound to your incoming XML. In the visible {} fields, you can set one of these to bold. The advantage would be that the two displayed floating fields will flow depending on the content.
    Have a look at the second example in this form: http://assure.ly/iuYifq
    Hope that helps,

  • How do I print all of the text in a scrollable form field?

    How do I print all of the text in a scrollable form field?  When I print the form, the text becomes cut off based on the size of the field and displays a little plus sign in the lower right hand corner indicating more text.  I want to print all of the text.

    The form is HTML which means what you see in your browser window is what you will see in your print out.  You can, as the form author, view the submitted data in the View Responses tab and print that out.  You can also export the responses to Excel, CSV, or PDF and print that out.

  • [AS] Applescript - Duplicate paragraph from one text frame to end of second text frame?

    Working in InDesign CS5
    Still banging my head against the wall over this last bit of code I need to figure out to finish a much larger script. What I'm looking to do is take a paragraph ('contents' from looping in larger script) from one text frame and duplicate it to the END of a second text frame (represented by 'Ad_Box'). The only thing I've gotten to semi-work is this:
    set insertion point -1 of Ad_Box to contents
    The problems with the above script are:
    1. Minor problem (can be worked around in InDesign CS5) - The script does not keep the formatting from the original paragraph that I want duplicated. The paragraph style of all "inserted" paragraphs is set to default
    2. The big problem - When the second text frame is too small for a particular word in original paragraph, the paragraph is moved to the wrong position in the text frame when the script completes, which is moving 4 paragraphs in total (this one baffles me). In other words, if I'm running script to be p1, p2, p3, p4 and p2 had a word too long to fit in text frame, on completion it will look like p1, p3, p4, p2.
    This is why I'm hoping to use the DUPLICATE command in some capacity, but I'm stumped. I set up a dialogue prompt to help me debug, and whenever I use the DUPLICATE command my script skips right over the dialogue, so I know it's not reading properly. This is what I've tried with no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
      duplicate contents to insertion point -1 of Ad_Box

    Mary, you were absolutely correct!! This fixes the problem of placing the contents into the wrong spot, AND it runs the script much faster too! Thank you.
    However it is still not carrying over my "applied paragraph style" that is on "contents". Does 'insertion point' not work this way?
    What looks like is happening is that in the InDesign app, whatever my default selected paragraph style is is what the insertion point type is placing as.
    I might try to set my applied paragraph style after the "last insertion point" call and see if that works. I'll update this reporting results

  • I have difficulty pasting text into the file name field(prefix only) while saving files.

    OS: WinXP sp3
    FF: 3.6.3
    I have difficulty pasting text into the file name field (prefix only) while saving files. example: File name is Pic123.jpg and I want to rename it ABC123.jpg and I have ABC loaded into the WinXPsp3 clipboard. When I highlight\right-click\delete "Pic" then attempt to paste the ABC, I get either no reaction, or upon multiple paste attempts, the ABC is appended to the end of the file, after the extension, as "Pic123.jpgABC". If I delete this unwanted suffix, or repeat the process several times, eventually I can delete the unwanted portion of the prefix and paste the desired text. Sometimes it works fine first try, but mostly it takes several tries. I'm using Firefox 3.6.3 but the problem existed in whatever previous version I had too. This issue only occurs when using the delete/paste; I can always manually change the name by typing. Thank you for your help.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Help: Text duplicates in all form fields

    When filling in the PDF form fields (of the PDF fillable form that I created), the text duplicates into every other field in the PDF, regardless of which box you type into. Help?

    This is how PDF forms behave if the fields names are the same, so you just need to change their names in Acrobat so they are all different.

  • Setting different text colors within 1 formula field

    Post Author: hassan.annous
    CA Forum: Formula
    Suppose I am interested in coloring each part of a text returned by a formula field with a different color.
    For example I have the following string:
    Local StringVar Diagnosis := "I am trying to color my text.";
    And I would like to color "I am" in red, "trying to color" in blue, and "my text" in green.
    Is that possible (using Crystal Syntax)?

    Post Author: tyanksar
    CA Forum: Formula
    Yes, but suppose I have field that outputs this text: "I have 1000 Cars"
    The "1000" is dynamic (embeded field), which means it could go to 1000000 (increasing the number of digits) and then shif the word "Cars" to the right. What I need is to color this "1000" .
    I do not want to seperate the "1000" to another text box. this will not shift the "Cars" to the right when the digit increases. Also it is not convenient to expand the text box as well, it will look like this: "I have 1000          Cars".
    Any solutions?

  • Invalid text value. A text field contains invalid data. Check the value and try again

    Hello,
    I am having a problem with the error mentioned in the title. I see alot of others have experienced the same problem, but I have quite a twist to it.
    I see the problem when I try to edit a list item, and then try to save the changes.
    Here what I see in the ULS log:
    System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: Invalid text value. A text field contains invalid data. Check the value and try again

    I have 3 front end servers(fx wfe1, wfe2, wfe3).  And here is the twist.
    If I access the library directly through wfe1 and wfe2, I get the error. If I access the library via wfe3 if works just fine.
    So because of this, I think it is safe to assume that is has nothing to do with the character limit of 255. Nor does it have anything to do with the field type, since it is already set to mulitible lines of text.
    So. Any ideas?

    To solve the problem you may have to change the field's parent type to "note". To do that you have to open your fldtypes... file under Templates/xml and change the line to:
    "<Field Name="ParentType">Note</Field>" from "<Field Name="ParentType">Text</Field>"
    You might also have to add a sql type if your text needs to be longer than 255 characters
    <Field Name=”SQLType”>ntext</Field>
    and inherit from SPFieldMultiLineText instead of SPFieldText

  • Can't see text entered on second page

    My wife is trying to write a school paper on her iPad in Pages. The first page works fine. When the doc gets long enough that it goes on to the second page, it gets weird sometimes. Text entered via the on-screen keyboard does not display. The cursor moves, but the text isn't there.
    It will display when she rotates the iPad. Then the keyboard and the data redraw and it's fine.
    Any suggestions?

    I just got Pages yesterday and had the vanishing text and typing over text thing happening. I thought it might have been the pictures files I added to the document were big files and it was slowing it down but today I worked on the same document and did not have the problem. The difference is that I was listening to iTunes on the iPad while working in Pages. But I also had removed a couple of objects and was only working on a one page Pages doc for today.
    For me it might have been playing music and working in Pages at the same time was a conflict for the iPad.
    I'm fairly new to the iPad and very new to Pages.

  • I have finished a book in Aperture 3. When I press buy book a text comes up " empty text field detected in book" I have been through the book many times and can't find it. Can I over ride it at this stage the book wants to cancel

    I have finished a book in Aperture 3. When I press" buy book' a text comes up " empty text field detected in book" I have been through the book many times and can't find it. Can I over ride it?  At this stage the book wants me to cancel

    I have been through the book many times and can't find it. Can I over ride it?  At this stage the book wants me to cancel
    Sure, you can override the warning and press "Continue" instead.
    But you said "you have been through the book many times" - have you checked the pages in Aperture's book view or have you checked the preview of the book? I'd look at least at at the "Preview" of the Book - after pressing "Continue" you will see the "Preview" button when the next panel is shown. Look carefully at the preview of the book, if any text is missing.
    If you are sure that you like what you see in the preview and no empty textfields show, you can proceed to buy the book.

  • Display text w/i Static Text Field

    Running SJSC2.1 on XP
    How can I get the text within a static text field to display on multiple lines.
    It works within a text area field - using "\n" but not a static text field. The text is fed from a database (Derby/Oracle)??
    Thanks...

    I have inserted: escape="false" as here:
    <ui:tableColumn binding="#{Page1.tableColumn3}" headerText="Info" id="tableColumn3">
    <ui:staticText binding="#{Page1.staticText5}" escape="false" id="staticText5" text="#{currentRow.value['CONTACT.CINFO']}"/>
    There is no option in properties for table cells (static text)
    Still the text is one long string..
    However, looking at the source code after deployment shows newlines where they should be. Go Figure!
    Could certainly use some help here..
    Thanks

  • Copying infoobject text into a second language key

    Hi all,
    I need to manage material text in both IT and EN language key. Some material codes are generated in ECC only in IT, some other in both languages.
    Since reporting is in any case required in english, I wish to set up something which is aimed to copy description created in IT into EN language key. This is aimed to avoid report displaying the code in all occurrences text in EN is not mainteined.
    Example:
    Material Code A100: text IT = Materiale A    text EN = Material A
    Material Code B100: text IT = Materiale B    text EN = not maintained
    in this case I wish to copy text Materiale B also into the language key EN.
    I remember there is a standard program to manage these situations in ECC HR and I was wondering if there is something similar in BI.
    Thanks to all

    I'm not talking about translating Infoobject decription.
    I need to have in both languages the text of an infoobject members.
    For istance, considering 0MATERIAL, I need to have in both languages all 1000 material codes managed in the company although in ECC they created description in english only for 600 codes and description in italian for all 1000 codes.

  • Untread Text Frames without losing text in the second frame

    I probably not gonna use the right terms to express my question because I don't have an english version of ID. I'm sorry for that.
    If you, for example, import a text document into your column-based layout, you are able to automate the text flow and it will flow into the columns. At the end of each frame there's a text-handler (threading text) that shows you where the text continues in the next frame.
    I wanna know if there's a possibility to unthread text AND leave the text into the first column and the rest of the text into the next column WITHOUT being connected like before. If I try this I get a red plus-sign at the end of the first frame showing me there more text and the next frame ends up without text.
    I can cut the text from behind the plus-sign and paste it into the next frame, okay. But there's something in my memory telling me it was already possible with Pagemaker to simply disconnect frames and leave the text intact.
    I hope somebody understands my question?

    Try to open Object style with no document open, double click on none then close and open indesign. Every frame after this process will be without border.
    This is only correct for new created document, not for existing ones. If the problem existis in an existing document you have to change the default style with no object selected.
    I would strongly recommend to create its own basic styles for each category and load them into the several style panels to have always styles with the same name in every document which makes exchange of items easier.
    Default Object styles are those with the small rectangle graphic at the right. The one with the T ist for Text frames, the one without T for Image Frames.
