Input times in a multi-page form

I have created a inventory book with similar pages (100 of them). Now when I enter the value, it takes too long tor each entry. What is the solution?

Hi,

First of an 100 page XFA Form is pushing it. In particular when the form is opened in Reader.

I suspect that you may have some inefficient script solutions. For example if you have a # Page of # Pages object on the Master Page, then both of these will have script in the layout:ready event.

The layout:ready event fires EVERY TIME the form changes. So if the user inputs data into a field, 200 layout:ready events would fire: # Page of # Pages object on 100 pages.

Have a look at a discussion here: http://assure.ly/nB0Bvz.

John Brinkman has a few degugging tools on his blog that are well worth checking out: http://blogs.adobe.com/formfeed/. Also check out his general advice here: http://blogs.adobe.com/formfeed/2010/02/big_and_complex_forms.html.

Hope that helps,

Niall
