Object.defineProperty is a big one for our PDFs. Can't extend the Object class with custom methods that are non-enumerable.

Hello all!I've always noticed that when an XFA PDF is being attached to an XFA PDF using the paperclip/app.execMenuItem("AddFileAttachment") method, Acrobat/Reader opens each PDF (in silent/hidden mode) after they are attached.I know this because in my console, all my pre-rendering scripts are fired...

I just tested my forms on Reader DC the other day and it called the functions in the script objects fine. Make sure there aren't any syntax errors in the script object.

You can make a PDF in Designer to iterate through its document attachments to extract the data you need.Create a table with a repeatable row and button with code like this:var doc = event.target;for (var a=0;a<doc.dataObjects.length;a++){  var newRow=Table1._Row1.addInstance();//Name of the repeatab...

Although you can't prevent the user from using File>SaveAs, you can always put a popup warning in the preSave event letting them know they should use your button. In the button you can set a variable that tells the preSave code that the user pressed the button as not to show the warning.Kyle

Try this:1) Create a hidden field ("hiddenField") to store the SSN value2) In your SSN input field under the enter event (JavaScript) put: this.rawValue=hiddenField.rawValue;3) In the same field under the exit event put:hiddenField.rawValue=this.rawValue;this.rawValue="*";for (var i=0;i<hiddenField....

Make sure the PDF is saved as a dynamic PDF. Also make sure the field is set to Expand to fit in the layout palette (if by flow you mean have the field expand to accommodate more text). Kyle

Restarting my computer several times seams to have done the trick. Weird though.Kyle

Now the same thing is happening to me...Kyle

Hi Bruce,I didn't even know about the link_text element type. How did you find out about that? Is there a Acrobat 11 JS API reference out there I don't know about?Thanks!Kyle
