Hello, I'm writing to see if anyone can help me with some Adobe Acrobat development that I am doing. I'm actually using ActivePdf ToolKit to write information to a pdf. Here's my issue. One of the fields on the form has a "grid-like or individual box" layout. For example, say the field is for someone's first name. The 1st letter of the first name would go in box one. The 2nd letter of the first name would go in box two, the 3rd letter in box three and so on. It's a pretty standard format for filling out information on forms. Now there is no simple way with Activepdf that I can write each letter into each box on the field. I would have to take the value for that field, chop it up and place the data on the PDF in it's appropriate position. I'm wondering if I can avoid chopping the data up and use Acrobats Javascript to manipulate the format of information to be displayed in the field on the pdf instead? I'm not very familiar with Acrobats Javascript, so I'm not sure if this is even possible so please bare with me. I'm reading through some manuals now to try to figure this stuff out. However, if anyone has experience with this and can expedite tmy development, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for any help. -Heather To change your subscription: http://www.pdfzone.com/discussions/lists-pdfdev.html
