Remove TAB's from form/pdf

I imported a Word Document into Adobe Designer....I'm trying to assign tabs... I have a whole bunch extra..that I want to delete can anybody tell me how I can delete these?

Interesting... was just trying it again.  I moved that script to the presubmit on the form you sent me and it does complete all the tasks; but when saved and opened in reader the Mailto does not appear and changes cannot be saved.  Then when right are enabled through Acrobat, then re-opened with reader the fields on the form are not locked when it is received by email.
When the same changes are made to the original form in LiveCycle and saved as a Static 7 or 8 pdf the text does not get removed and when saved as a Dynamic 7 or 8 the text gets removed but all the fields are unlocked when received by email.
On the form I've setup a Current Date field and have it working with Date and Time format using the following:
----- form1.Page1.CurrentDate::calculate: - (FormCalc, client) -------------------------------------var 
theDate = Num2Date(Date(), "MMM D YYYY")
var theTime = Num2Time(Time(), "hh:MM:SS A") Concat(Num2Date(Date()
, "MMM D YYYY"), " ", Num2Time(Time(), "hh:MM:SS A"))
What I'm looking the do is insert a time stamp somewhere on the form when a button is clicked, rather than when the form is opened.

  • Remove watermark/image from existing PDF?

    I need to be able to remove a watermark from existing PDFs we have stored in a database. This is a legitimate requirement (rather than trying to remove trial software watermarks) as we have > 10 million PDFs stored with a "copy" watermark that we now want to store without the watermark.
    I want to write a service in .NET which can do this programmatically.
    Is there any Adobe SDK to support this.? if YES..please help.!
    Any samples appriciated..
    satish

    The first issue you will face is trying to determine HOW the watermark was
    added.  If it was done in a standard way by a well written tool, then it
    will be easily to locate and remove.  However, if not, you will have your
    work cut out for you.
    Either way, you will not be able to use .NET with the Acrobat SDK for this
    type of low-level operation.

  • Remove a hyperlink from a PDF

    Hi. I need to remove a hyperlink from a PDF in Acrobat Pro 9. When I googled this, the answers all referred to editing a 'box around the link', which I can’t see. does anyone know how I can make the box visible?

    Acrobat - - Standard or Pro - - any version provides the Link tool.
    With Acrobat 9 Pro you can access this tool by opening the Advanced Editing toobar.
    Select the Link tool icon.
    Now any Link annotation on any of the PDF's pages will display as a rectangle.
    Select the desired link annotation / annotations.
    Press the Delete key on the keyboard.
    The link annotations are deleted.
    Do a File :: Save As on the open PDF.
    Be well...

  • How to remove html tags from the pdf file ?

    Hello,
    Using BI publisher we are generating a pdf file. In the table, we have data which contains html tags. for example " test1<br> 2.test2<br> 3.test3<br> ".
    In the pdf file we need to get the output like this
    test1
    test2
    test3
    But the output is as follows :"test1<br> 2.test<br> 3.test3<br> "
    Any idea, how these html tags can be removed from the pdf file and obtain the required result?
    Thanks in advance!!
    Archana

    Archana,
    Can you wrap your code in <code> tags (use square brackets rather than angled ones), as the forum software is interpretting the HTML tags, in other words we can't see what you mean ;)
    In any case, there are a few different options (guessing at what your problem is, without seeing the actual data), you could use htf.escape_sc or replace, regexp_replace etc to substitute the values before you output them to your PDF.
    Hope this helps,
    John.

  • Is it possible to remove XML properties from a PDF form?

    I created a PDF version of our employment application in Acrobat and Live Cycle Designer. I'm knew to Acrobat and somewhere along the line, must have turned on XML. Now I want to combine the application with another document but I can only do that as a package, which I have done, but it throws people off and I'd rather make one document that's not a package. I can't do that with an Adobe XML
    Is it possible to turn off XML without recreating the document?

    Not really without hacking the PDF form you created.  If you still want to go that way and the form is NOT a dynamic form then find a utility like WindJack's PDF CanOpener.  Make a copy of the document and open it in either Acrobat with PDF CanOpener plug-in and navigate through the PDF innards and find the XFA dictionary and delete it.  Then Save the document. You will need to re-edit and arrange any JavaScript actions in the saved form because Acrobat and Designer use two different JS engines.

  • What is involved in removing an image from a PDF document and inserting a new one?

    Our form producing process is very typical:
    (1) Start with a TIFF image, create a fresh PDF document.
    (2) By adding items such as links and interactive fields, convert the read-only document into an interactive form.
    Step (2) may take a lot of work, but fortunately when modifications are needed, it is always possible to edit the individual items. No need to redo the whole form from scratch.
    There are some cases, however, in which we have invested a substantial amount of work in Step (2), but we need to modify the underlying image, removing it and replacing it with a new one. We obviously don't want to destroy all the work done in (2).
    I envision the procedure as taking a rug from underneath a person and putting a new one.
    What is involved in doing that? Can that be done at the JavaScript level? Are there commercial packages that can do that? Is the Acrobart SDK required?

  • Remove Submit button from completed pdf

  • How do I remove cmyk profiles from a pdf. and keep it strictly 2 color process?

    My company is trying to outsource a booklet to an offset printing company. We are strictly digital printing, and I honestly have no experience with offset. In the past I would build the documents with the pantone colors that were needed in whatever software I was using to create it (Illustrator, Indesign), do my checks and fixes in Acrobat and send it to the printer, and it would get done. The current printer is having an issue with the files that I'm giving him. He says, that the files contain CMYK profiles, and has to strictly be 2 color process. The file is pointing to the correct spot colors, but it does still does contain the CMYK profiles, list I have no idea how to remove the CMYK profiles, I can convert them to RGB, but that doesnt help. How do I remove these profiles and make the PDF strictly use spot colors, or does this not make any sense, Honestly it doesn't to me.

    Honestly it does not to me either.
    You have a history of creating spot color files - but are using a new vendor...what I'm hearing from the vendor doesn't make sense
    ...do my checks and fixes in Acrobat and send it to the printer, ...
    Have you checked the PDF - verified that your Spot colors are Spots, not cmyk builds?
    The current printer is having an issue with the files that I'm giving him. He says, that the files contain CMYK profiles, and has to strictly be 2 color process.
    Communicate very clearly  - cmyk profiles or cmyk elements?
    To my limited knowledge, every file will have a profile - it's a moot element in spot color printing -

  • How do I remove background images from a PDF?  Using Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Standard.

    I have a file I need to print off, but the document is 100 pages lond and each page as a very obnoxious background image that makes it difficult to read the content, and I really don't want to waste the ink.
    I have tried a few things with no luck:
    -Tried replacing document background color in the 'Accessibility' tab in preferences.
    -Tried unchecking the 'Display large images' field in the 'Page Display' tab in preference - this leaves a dark gray background that I can't get rid of, which is almost as bad as the original image.
    -Tried several combinations under the 'Color Management' tab in preference to lessen the gray background achieved from the previous step.  I can only brighten the shade slighty, but there is still a fair amount of gray background.
    I just want a white background, or a clear background, and I have not seen any article or help topic on how to accomplish this.  Please help!
    Mike

    You might want to see if you can select the background with the object touchup tool. If so, can you then just delete the selected object. May take a while to go through the document, but if it solves the problem you are ahead. You may be able to select it with JavaScript and repeat the process. My point of using the object touchup tool is that it may not be a background set by Acrobat, but something that is simply labeled as an image from the Acrobat viewpoint.

  • How to remove a link from a pdf file

    I am reading a pdf file using preview. I is a freely available research article. While marking words to look them up in the dictionary I noticed on two of the 40+ pages, the curser had changed from the "mark text"-symbol to the hand symbol as one would expect when hovering over a link. When I click on the pdf page safari opens up and lead me to the publishers website offering distantly related articles to the one I am reading at the moment. When I open the exact same pdf file in adobe acrobat 11, no such behaviour can be observed. Is there an explanation for that, more importantly can I switch the link of?
    many thanks

  • How Can I Remove Password Protection From my PDF File?

    Hello,
    I have a PDF file that is protected by a password. I tried almost all free online tools to unlock the password but they don't work. I know the password but online tools are showing the error: The uploaded file does not seem to be a valid PDF file.
    Please let me know if there is any online tool or any software that can remove the password so I can share the file with others
    Thanks
    Steven

    I know the password but online tools are showing the error: The uploaded file does not seem to be a valid PDF file.
    Perhaps the file is not a .pdf file after all.
    Anyway, .pdf files are generated by Adobe Acrobat, not by Windows. Checking the FAQs at the Adobe site is probably the best way to solve your problem. I would also run this test: Create my own .pdf file, apply a password, then remove the password.

  • Removing a page from a pdf in preview?

    I scanned some documents into a pdf, but accidentally scanned the same document twice. Is there a way to remove that one duplicate page without having to rescan a whole new pdf file?

    Have you tried simply highlighting the surplus page in the right hand sidebar, and then hitting the "delete" key?
    Should work for unprotected PDF's that you have created through scanning, printing, etc.
    Cheers
