Hi troika002
Open the form in Acrobat 9, keep form editing closed.
Go under Advanced
Then Extend Features in Adobe Reader
Then save as.
I would use a different name and keep original in case you need to make further changes later on.

Hi
I am running QuarkXPress 8.1.6.2 on intel iMac with OS 10.6.7.
I had to reinstall my Adobe Flash Player and lost my connection to Quark and no longer have the SWF preview function.
The Adobe Flash Player I have now is 10.1.85.3.
Does anyone know how I can reconnect to...
Hi CecilXavier
I don't think you can do calculations with check boxes.
But you can fake it by using a text field with a border around it.
Using Zapf Dingbat 3 will give you a ? (check mark).
You can use nearly the same calculations you used with CHALEV.
Except you will have to find the script...
Hi Dark2
If you are using Acrobat, then
Choose Add or Edit fields
Select the OK button
Draw the field size
Under properties choose Appearance
Then choose background color and font size
Then under options (Label) type in Submit or whatever you want
Then under actions choose Submit a Form and...
Hi CecilXavier
I think I found a way to make the round down to work.
Try this
The Simplified field notation for Chalev2 = Chalev * .50
Then to round it down you go to Validate and paste this
event.value = Math.floor(event.value);
That seems to work here.
Try it...
Hi CecilXavie
It looks like you have to have the less than/equal to symbols <= to make it work.
Also that script is case sensitive so you can't use Str for str.
I reposted the PDF and I think it works now.
You will have to change the result to whatever you want.
var nstr =...
Hi CecilXavier
I am still not completely sure exactly what you want.
However if you want to do a number calculation you first have to format the text boxes to contain a number then you go to calculations and do the calculation.
This is what the following script does.
You should be able to...
Hi CecilXavier
If field1 = 18 then you want field2 to = 18 +3 or 21?
If so that would just be field2 = field1 + 3
Question 2
For CHALEV you make a field CHALEV2 or whatever and make the calculation CHALEV2 = CHALEV * .50
Can you post what you have on the internet so I can see it?

I have found that Safari 4.0.5 (4531.22.7) on OS 10.4.11 will open and let me read and do fillable forms online without downloading the PDF or opening Adobe Reader. So it must have Adobe Reader built in.
FireFox 3.6.3 apparently does not have Adobe Reader built in and always downloads the PDF to...
Hi marathon62,
Try this
This example uses 3 pages with Name, Phone, Address.
If you use form wizard it will automatically name them as shown.
Name
Name_1
Name_2
When you change it to just Name the program will rename them like this.
Name#
Name#1
Name#2
You can change that on the left in the...
Hi SuaveGato
Using Acrobat 9 Pro here on the Mac.
If you create a PDF form with 12 or so pages and each page has a "Name" field, then name the Name field exactly the same on all pages.
If page one has Name1 and page two has Name2, etc. then it won't work.
Note: the same applies...
Hi kavya
When you finish the form in Acrobat 9 you should save that form as the original.
Then close the form editing.
Then look under "Advanced at the top and click on "Extend Features in Adobe Reader.
That will prompt you save another copy. Save that with the new name...
MarkWalsh, thanks
You're right I had selected square for some reason, and thought that was the shape of the enclosing box.
But I've done worse.

Using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro with Mac OS 10.4.11.
Why would my check box field stop giving me a check mark and give me a black square instead?
Just started having this problem and wonder what font Acrobat uses to give the check mark.
Help fixing this problem would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks jmgalvin
I looked at my mouse prefs and the scroll options are turned off and the zoom box is also unchecked. I don't use the scroll button on my mouse.
Somehow or other I went back to Quark the next day and messed with the Option, Control etc. and it went away, not even going...
Hi pentode
This happened when I was using QuarkXpress 6.52 and continued in all browsers and with nothing opened. I was using the Command Option keys to do something in Quark when it happened.
Restarting and using Install disk to repair did nothing to fix it.
Finally I went back to Quark and...
What could cause the entire desktop to move opposite the mouse movement?
I was working in QuarkXPress 6.52 and hit a key combination trying to use vertical scaling, when the entire screen started moving around as I moved the mouse pointer.
Using Intel iMac with OS 10.4.11.
Does anyone have any...
hi mktgrph1
I still don't completely understand the desired end result.
If the customer/client has the actual CD in their comp, then why not separate the PDF files from the html and place them on the CD and they can download what they want.
Or place the individual PDF files on the web and...
