Preventing PDF forms print and hiding useless message boxes.

Avatar

Level 3

I have a PDF form and I need to prevent printing this PDF form, if its fields are blank.

To modify my form i use Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES3.

About how can this be done is written here: http://forms.stefcameron.com/2008/04/13/prevent-printing-pdf-forms-in-acrobat-8/

The only thing i need more than in this article - is to suppress message box "Printing Cancelled".

So, if somebody knows how can it be done, please help me.

Hi,

the XFA specs do not not describe a way to suppress the error message for the validate element, so it seems to be imossible.
