How do I use Acrobat JavaScript to perform digital signature (e-sign) in multiple PDFs documents?

≪ Previous: If/then checkbox script help in Adobe Acrobat Form...

With this script, I can perform batch signature:

// Choose handler

var manipulador = security.getHandler("Adobe.PPKLite");

// login -- change as appropriate

manipulador.login("test123", "/D/Users/p004826/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Acrobat/10.0/Security/Israel.pfx");

// informations

var myInfo = {password: "test123",

reason: "Salvar como teste",

mdp: "defaultAndComments"};

//Invisible Sign

this.certifyInvisibleSign({

oSig:manipulador,

oInfo:myInfo,

cDIPath:"/c/temp/sigSign.pdf",

cLegalAttest: "Certificado ussando o JavaScript",

bUI:false

});

But, it accomplishes only with a .PFX file saved locally. I'm trying to find a way that makes the user to insert a card and enter a password to make the e-signature. Does anyone know any other way?

Sorry for my bad english

Thank you!!!

Drop down A to populate Drop down B, C, and D

≪ Previous: How do I use Acrobat JavaScript to perform digital signature (e-sign) in multiple PDFs documents?

I have several drop downs. Drop down A, B, C, D and so on. All the drop downs have the same names in them but different values. For instance, drop down A has a list of names and export value is the person's address. Drop down B has the same list of names but export values are the person's SSN's. Drop down C has the same names but export values are $15 or $23 etc (their hourly pay rate). And so forth for the additional drop downs.

What I would like to do is when I select the person's name from Drop down A then all the other drop downs will show that name but will return that drop down's value automatically into the text field connected to showing the results for that drop down. Text fieldA would show the value of Drop down A. Text fieldB would show the value for drop down B. Text fieldC would show the value for drop down C (and so on).

Is this possible? Could someone help me out with an example script that I can try out? That would help greatly. Thanks guys.

When I run this script in console (Acrobat DC) it always stops after 50 iterations with this error:

NotAllowedError: Security settings prevent access to this property or method.
App.openDoc:13:Console undefined:Exec

My guess is that it cannot find the next path in the test.txt file that has a list of paths. Why? Are there size limitations to this? If I delete the processed paths from the file, it continues fine, for the next 50 paths, and then stops again.

var oFile = util.readFileIntoStream("/C/test/test.txt");
var cFile = util.stringFromStream(oFile, "utf-8");

var n = cFile.split("\n");
//console.println(n.toSource());

//iterate through array of file paths and operate
for (var i in n) {
    var dc = app.openDoc(n[i].replace(/(\r\n|\n|\r)/gm,"").replace("\uFEFF", "").replace("\t", ""));    // Change the author names from "Smith, Jon" to "Jon Smith"    var names = dc.info.Authors;    for (var i in names) {        names[i] = names[i].replace(/,/g, "");        var nameParts = names[i].split(" ");        if (nameParts.length>1) {            var tmp = nameParts[1];            nameParts[1] = nameParts[0];            nameParts[0] = tmp;            names[i] = nameParts.join(" ");        }    var namesAsString = names.join(", ");    dc.info.Authors = [];    dc.info.Author = namesAsString;    }    console.println(namesAsString)    app.execMenuItem("Save");    dc.closeDoc();

≪ Previous: process aborted when reading data from a text file (util.readFileIntoStream, stringFromStream)

I tried using Online Excel Formula Beautifier to convert an Excel formula to javascript for use in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI >Forms>Text Field Properties>Custom Calculation Script but it didn't work. (I first changed the Excel cell numbers to the correct names of the (Acrobat) form fields in the following calculation)

Excel formula using field names:

=IF(Goals=1,GA1,IF(Goals=2,(SUM(GA1,GB1)/2),IF(Goals=3,(SUM(GA1,GB1,GC1)/3),IF(Goals=4,(SU M(GA1,GB1,GC1,GD1)/4)))))

Converted Javascript calculation using above website:

(Goals===1,GA1,IF(Goals==2,((GA1,GB1)/2),IF(Goals==3,((GA1,GB1,GC1)/3),IF(Goals==4,((GA1,G B1,GC1,GD1)/4)))))

There is no error message, but no results in the field. I would love it if someone could help me with this script. Thanks!!!

≪ Previous: How to put field data into an array and pass it to a .php page on a webserver

While trying to come up with a way to quickly reduce the size of large PDFs that are viewed on line, I thought I would highlight a key word on the pages I need and then delete pages without annotations. I decided to replace step 2 in the Find and Highlight Words action with my own script. The script I came up with, (my first ever) works fine on the 35 page document that I used to develop it:

var pageArray=[]

for (var i = 0; i < this.numPages; i++)

{

Aannots = this.getAnnots(i);

if (Aannots == null)

{

pageArray.push(i);

};

pageArray.sort();

pageArray.reverse();

}

for (var j = 0; j < pageArray.length; j++)

{

this.deletePages(pageArray[j],pageArray[j])

}

but when run on a very large, 2000+ page doc, it deletes some pages, then hangs or finishes with:

"TypeError: Invalid argument type.

Doc.deletePages:62:Batch undefined:Exec

===> Parameter nStart.""

in the console.

If I keep rerunning this code in the console, it eventually deletes all the unannotated pages.

Since the arguments come from the array, I print it out and am surprised that it is not in the reversed numerical order I expected.

Could that be the problem? or one of them?

Thanks for any help you can give . . . at 65, I don't know if I'll live long enough to figure this out myself!

Javascript equivalent of 'Go to page view'?

≪ Previous: Find, Highlight and Delete Null Pages?

I have a PDF with several attached PDFs which I need to open. Several of them are opened with a button, which works fine using 'Go to page view' as their action. This works with Acrobat Pro or Reader in all tests I have tried. But, a few of the files have to open with a dropdown selection, which I have coded using the following in the 'validate' event of the dropdown menu:

var oDoc = openDataObject(fileName);

if (oDoc != null) {

var filePath = oDoc.path;

oDoc.closeDoc();

try {

app.openDoc({cPath: filePath, bHidden: false});

} catch (e) {

app.alert('Error in app.openDoc: ' + e.message);

}

This works, but not in all cases. Is there a way to call the same 'Go to page view' command via javascript from the dropdown menu?

Can anyone please let me know how do I split PDF Files by bookmark using Java Script.

I am making a Visual Basic utility to read the bookmarks in PDF Files and split them based on the bookmarks. I am able to split the PDF Files by using Arts PDF Split Pro. However since I am already using Adobe Standard, I would like to do it with Adobe itself.

Thus, I pay license for only one software and not two.

Extract pages from file and rename

≪ Previous: Split PDF Files by Bookmarks

I have a combined file that I need to break apart into separate files. But I'm having trouble making this work for 2 pages. Let me provide some background. I have a pdf with lets say 10 pages that I need to break into 5 files(F1, F2, F3, F4, F5). The script below would return 5 files appropriately named but the contents shifted or in some cases duplicated. For Example: F1 would have Pages 1 and 2; F2 would have pages 3 and 4, F3 would have 4 and 5; F4 would have 6 and 7; F5 would have pages 8 and 9. I'm generalizing here but the gist is that the pages somehow get skewed in the end. Thoughts anyone?

/* for extracting 2 page pdfs from main file, insert file names in first line between brackets*/

var filename = ["F1","F2","F3","F4",F5",];

for (var i = 0; i < this.numPages; i++)

this.extractPages({

nStart: i, nEnd: i + 1,

cPath : filename[i] + ".pdf"

});

Calculating Age from DOB field in Acrobat

≪ Previous: Calculation with a field and a dropdown

Hello everyone,

I am placing this JavaScript code below in the calculate tab in the custom calculation script window for an Adobe acrobat form I am creating. The user will enter in the DOB field "mm/dd/year" and the age output should be in the "age" field. For the moment the code works up to the the day 12th day after that the age does not show up in the age field and if I put a date of 1/16/1973 my age should be 39, but my age comes out as 38. Can anyone tell me what I am missing in the code? All so its not accounting for the leap year. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!

event.value = "";

dobValue = getField("dob").value;

if (dobValue!="") {

dob = util.scand("dd/mm/yyyy", dobValue);

today = new Date();

age = today.getFullYear() - dob.getFullYear();

if (today.getMonth() < dob.getMonth())

age;

else if (today.getMonth()== dob.getMonth())

age;

else if (today.getDate() < dob.getDate())

age;

else if (today.getDate() == dob.getDate())

age;

event.value = age;
