Print button that prints particular pages of form

Hi, I'm not familiar with scripting, but I'm thinking a script might be necessary for what I want to do. I have a form that is 4 pages long. The first two pages are instructions, the last two are the actual form. Can I add a print button to the document that will print the last two pages rather than the entire document? And would the button need to be on the 3rd page (top of the actual form) or the 4th page (end of form)? Thanks!

Can I add a print button to the document that will print the last two pages rather than the entire document?
Yes.
// form1.page1.printBtn::click - (JavaScript, client)
xfa.host.print(1, "2", "3", 0, 0, 0, 0, 0);
And would the button need to be on the 3rd page (top of the actual form) or the 4th page (end of form)?
The print button can go anywhere.

Hi Kesav,
You can do this in Print Control Dialog, when you give printer name as LP01 or LOCL , just below that, one input field 'Page Selection' is available,
You can give like
Pages selected for printing
You can define which pages should be output in the page selection.
All pages are printed if an entry is not made here.
You can either specify individual pages or a range of pages. These entries are separated by a comma.
Examples:
4     only page 4
2-5   pages 2 to 5
-20   up to and including page 20
3-    from and including page 3
4,8-10,15-   pages 4, 8 to 10, and page 15 onwards.
And If you need to control the rpinted copies from the program , you can try with the OUTPUT_OPTIONS-TDPAGESLCT parameter of Functionmodule (which is generated from Smartform).
Hope this solves your issue

I need instructions on how to create a button that will email a pdf form to someone else on a websit

I NEED ASSISTANCE CREATING A BUTTON THAT WILL EMAIL A PDF FORM FROM A WEBSITE TO WHOEVER THE VIEWER WANTS TO

Just a bit more info. E-mail can be used, but has potential problems -- often related to the client machine that you have no control over. Use the data submissions (either FDF or XML) rather than the full PDF so you do not have to deal with Reader Rights and the related license issues. The FDF and XML data files are easily imported into the original form so that you see what the client sees. With those aspects in mind, just go ahead and try one. Be aware that you can add form fields using the form tools in the Advanced Editing tools, OR use the forms menu that will take you to Designer. You might want to try both to see the pros and cons. Be sure to keep such a test simple so you are not wasting time on your final form just for testing. I typically create a 1 page form that has all of the possible fields for such a test.

Reader X does not print particular page

Hi, all.
Try to print first page of the document
http://n4trb.com/AmateurRadio/SemiconductorHistory/GE_Tunnel_Diodes.pdf
It will fail.
But, this page can be printed by Nitro Reader.
Still a lot to fix in acrobat reader though...
WBR, Oleg.

It is extremely puzzling.
Using a Kyocera C5020N laser printer I lose the fields
Using a HP 6940 injet printer, the fields are printed
Any idea why?

Is it possible to make a button that adds extra pages?

I'm trying to make a form that consists of three pages. However, I would like to have a button at the bottom of page 2 that can be used to duplicate page 2 as a continuation sheet - including the same button, which could then be used to create a 3rd copy as another continuation sheet if needed, and so on.
I can't think of a way of doing it. Even if I managed to duplicate the page, the new copy would be pre-populated because the fields would have the same names. Therefore I'm now wondering if it's possible to make a button that would effectively unhide entire pages to achieve the same thing. Then I could perhaps create the form with nine copies of page 2, and unhide them one at a time based on use of the button. Again though, I'm not sure that's possible, and even if it is it would be pretty inelegant.
Anyone have any bright ideas or alternative approaches I might not have considered?

It is possible to do using the templates feature. If it needs to work with Reader, the only version that supports it without having to apply usage rights with LiveCycle Reader Extensions ($$$$) is Reader 11, so all of your Reader users would have to update to the latest version.
Templates can be spawned so that the fields are automatically renamed, avoiding the issue you mentioned.

When i hit the home button on any particular page, the home page appears on the bar, but it just sits there, doing nothing with a blank screen....

when i activate a web page from the home netzero homepage, and then try to go back to the home page by way of the home button, nothing happens. The status bar says it is trying to go there, but the screen is totally blank white and just sitting there. this happens no matter where i activate a page from, the home button just does not work. thank you in advance for any input .

Verify that the battery is charged (connect to the supplied charger & cable for a couple of hours).
Reset your device:
Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

How to remove "submit form" button that's generated when distributing form without Designer

When I open it in Designer to delete the image all of my java gets screwed up, so I'm hoping there is a solution that doesn't involve updating all of the code. I'm using PDF Expert 5 and Box because adobe's reader is absolute garbage.
Thank you in advance!

Sorry for not being clear, LC Designer.
Here is a screenshot of the submit form button in a blank form that's automatically inserted when distributing. If I open it in LC Designer I can remove the submit form button but it screws up all java and formatting. (sorry for not inserting an image or link, adobe'ss forums are about as well developed as its software)

Print this Page Java html snippet

I decided to try adding the above to one of my pages in iWeb.
I added the java code as shown on Old Toad's site:-
<form>input type="button" value=" Print this Page "
onclick="javascript:parent.window.print();return false;"/></form>
I placed this code in an html snippet in iWeb and applied it and it showed up as Print this Page in the site. I then published the site to a local folder and uploaded the changed pages to my external server. After uploading, I visited my site and tried clicking on the button and it did not work.
Anyone know why it did not work? The code is correct and I copied and pasted from OT's site directly into an html snippet.
Is the code site or page specific or generic, that it will work for any site?
Does it only work in MobileMe published sites and not for sites uploaded to an external server?
Any insights gratefully received.

Does the print button work when the site was on your HD locally? Here's some different code that you might try:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
// This script was supplied free by Hypergurl // <a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://www.hypergurl.com">http://www.hypergurl.com</a>  </script>
The original code should work on any server as far as I know. Cyclosaurus is the authority on javascript and should have an answer.
This Google search has numerous examples of code:http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=active&client=safari&rls=en-us&ei=MBCjSd X6LoK2sQOIj8zGCQ&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&ct=result&cd=1&q=javascriptto+printpage&spell=1

How do I just print one page not all of the pages in the document?

When I print the document, I usually just want to print just the first page and not having to print all of the pages which is a waste of paper.

Hi debed,
I understand you're wanting to print particular pages of a document not the entire thing. I will certainly do my best to assist you with this.
It will depend on what program you're using, but you should see something similar to the image below allowing you to select the current page you're on, or pages 1-3 for example.
If you're still not sure, I will just need a bit more information to try and get more specific instructions.
1. What model of printer are you using?
2. Are you using Windows or Mac on your computer?
3. What program are you printing from that you'd like to select just the one page?
Hope this helps! Happy Holidays!!

How to create a submit by email button that emails the FORM AND DATA

I have Adobe Acrobat Pro 8. I've created a fillable form that can be fillable and saved in Adobe reader. How do I add a submit by email button that will send me the form with the data? Right now I am only getting the data. I need the form with the data.
Thank you in advance, Rob

When you set up a submit form action, you have the option of choosing the form data (FDF, XFDF, HTML) or the complete PDF. Choose the latter. For this to work with Reader (prior to 11), the document has to be Reader-enabled, which you do by selecting: Advanced > Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader

Multi-Row Delete from a table via a button without submitting the page

Hi,
I have a simple page based on a (temporary) table. There is a submit button that calls a PL/SQL process. However, I would like to have an 'Abort' button that deletes all rows from the table belonging to a specific user.
I had a look at 'Processes -> Data Manipulation --> Multi Row Delete' but this can only be linked to a page level event such as onSubmit. My onSubmit is linked to another process so this is not an option for me.
I thought of creating a PL/SQL function for the deletion and calling it from Javascript linked to a button. I have done the PL/SQL and the button but don't know how to call PL/SQL from JS. And is this the correct way of doing something like a deletion? Any documents that show how can this be done will be much appreciated....
I had a look at the forum and the documentation but could not find anything for multil-row deletion triggered from a button.
Your help is appreciated as I'm a newbie :-)
Thanks
Angela

Hi,
I actually found the solution. I created a button (that submits) and a computation that calls the PL/SQL function conditional on that button being pressed. Initially I got confused because I already had another PL/SQL function attached to different button. I didn't think that having two buttons that submit the page and call different functions was possible.
Thanks
Angela

How do I make a print button that prints "current page" as default

I am working in Adobe Acrobat Professional 7.0 and have created "print
buttons" in the pdf document I am working in. The print dialog box has "print all" automatically selected as the current default. How can
I create buttons that bring the user to the print dialog box automatically selected at "print current page?" I want the user to hit
the print button and have it automatically print the single page that they are viewing only, so that no one will accidentally print the entire book.

Print button that prints only certain pages

I am using Acrobat Pro, and have a large document, the first four page section of which can be a stand alone document.
I have set up one print button which uses Execute a menu item > File > Print, for users who want to print the whole document.
I would like to create another button that prints only the first four pages - is this possible?
Thanks in advance

Add a BUTTON that ONLY prints a selected page range

Hello,
I have a 100+ page PDF which has 32 or so 'sections' which are accessible by bookmarks. I want to add a button that allows the reader to print ONLY the section they are in, i.e. a pre-selected page range that I embed in the button.
Is this possible?
If not, is there any other way to do this? The document was originally created in Word and is broken up by Sections.
Thanks,
Chris.

It's possible using a script, but the user will always be able to edit that pre-defined range, if they wanted to.
The only option where they can't edit it is by using a script that silently prints the section, but that requires installing a script on the local machine of each user that is going to use the file.
