PDF XChange Forum

Hello MedBooster,

That is correct - there are some limitations on what can be done with the appearance of form fields (checkboxes included).

Maybe you can just have two versions of your custom checkbox with and without the image, and use those as needed?

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello MedBooster,

While awaiting Mathew's feedback on your above request - you have yourself already done a very good job here:
viewtopic.php?t=42190
In collecting the scripts he has posted!

Hello MedBooster, The dynamic part of a dynamic stamp is that you can while placing it dynamically change some of it's parameters. This can be via e.g. a pop-up dialogue that asks you to select some options (including check box ticks), but once selected and the stamp is placed on the page - that cop...

Hello mCHSNUg5Pz8cPap, This file contains of one single image with invisible OCR text layer on top. So when you redact out the top part, the remaining part of the image has to be recreated and recompressed, so that would indeed result in a slightly off image quality, as the start was not great to be...

Hello MedBooster, You can create your stamp, and then modify it to change the JS if needed. So custom JS code is possible, it will just need to be added after you've used the tool initially. It is intended for people who do not have JS knowledge to still be able to create some dynamic forms, so it a...

Hello joxeme, Please take a look here on how to use redaction in general: How to use Redaction And this page while speaking of "page numbers" is effectively showing you how to apply a redaction to the same position of all pages in a file: Can I use PDF-XChange Editor to add/remove page num...

Hello br-lifestudent, Thanks for the sample file! After removing your underline and trying to place my own - mine appears to be placed exactly through the middles of the tails of the letters on each line. I tested with whole blocks of text as well as single lines at a time - and could not reproduce ...

Hello MedBooster, Mathew,

Thank you both for this topic and glad to hear that all is now working correctly for @MedBooster.

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello Jasunai, I think the UI might have changed a bit lately - maybe when some of the other options were adjusted and made into a drop down menu. I believe that this dialogue was indeed appearing maybe a step earlier in the past, but can not be certain as it has been a while since I've tested those...

Hello br-lifestudent, Welcome to our forums. The position of the underline is determined by the font metrics, so it would be determined by the text on which you are applying that underline, and there is no way for you to tweak it's position relative to the text. We are trying to use the same values ...

Hello Jasunai,

The pages repository dialogue will appear in the next step.
The first one you select the files to be merged/split, and then when you click OK on that - you would on the next step have the dialogue from my screenshot.

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello zarkogajic,

Could it be that the coordinates are in rotated user space and that page has been "flipped" at some earlier point without the coordinate system being normalized for the new page orientation?

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello joxeme, The "select all instances" will work when the same image object is repeated 8 times on 8 separate pages. If you merge 8 documents into one - even if the image is visually the same - each page came with it's own copy of an image file and the Editor (or any other tool) will see...

Hello Jasunai, Apologies! Tis type of question is usually asked int he Editor section of our forums and I didn't see at all that your enquiry is PDF-Tools related. So I presume it is this dialogue that you were looking for? image.png It would now show after the step where you do select the source do...

Hello MedBooster,

Glad to hear that you have found a workaround for the time being!

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello davidbeh, It does seem like there is no exclusive mode for the Select Annotations tool, but you should be able to select only annotations in the comments pane. I will check now with our devs why there is no exclusive mode for "Select comments". In the mean time please try to drag fro...

Hello Jasunai, Welcome to our forums. I believe that these KB articles will be useful in showing you how to perform the needed operations: How do I re order pages in the Editor? How do I copy pages between open documents using the Thumbnails pane? How do I Combine/merge Documents or Pages? Kind rega...

Hello sbr3th,

It does not seem like our Editor can currently tag annotations (not only links but all annotations), so I am now checking with our dev team and asking them to look into this!

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello rafa, You can not force the Editor to create a PDF 2.0 file. When making files with the Editor - it will set the specification to the lowest possible that would cover all the features needed in your file (to ensure the best compatibility). That would usually be 1.4 PDF spec for files without t...

Hello Nimrod_189,

It is called "Home" in English, however I believe that the code uses the IDs of the menus, to allow for language independent access and placement of your custom buttons in the menus.

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello Mathew, Thanks for the detailed steps. Indeed I am doing the same ones when I need to move a stamp to another collection (which is not too often for me to be honest). I will ask my colleagues from the dev team to comment on why everything is flattened when you create a new stamp from file. It ...

Hello sbr3th, I can assign tags: image.png Or is it that you assign them, but then you are still getting the errors? Actually - there were a few items that were not tagged but were "text" as far as the page is concerned. Those were the lists 16 and 20 on my screenshot below image(1).png Ca...

Hello MedBooster,

SaveAs when called through JS code can do a "Save as copy", however it does require elevated privileges so probably won't work through the toolbar button - as Mathew advised, there's no way to circumvent these restrictions.

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello Willy Van Nuffel,

I did see that. Likely there's something odd with the embedded font. As klei said - the original file was produced 20+ years ago.

In any case - I hope that your advise and my screenshots would help @klei with their task!

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello MedBooster,

If not the whole page is visible when you make the bookmark - the Ctrl + Shift + B will create a bookmark pointing to that specific location on your page:

Stefan

Hello klei, Thanks for the sample files! So your symbols are inside the file, and are showing in e.g. the contents pane: image.png However the font used in your document (TriplexLight) while fully embedded: image(1).png Is a Type1 font (quite old), and it seems like it has not been embedded properly...

Hello klei, Welcome to our forums. So if I understood you correctly - there are no backslashes visible at all in the file and you need to add those as additional content? Please take a look at this KB article which shows you how you can edit content using our Editor: https://www.pdf-xchange.com/know...

Hello Peakski,

I believe that this KB article will help:
How do I set the default style of annotations in PDF-XChange?

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello Loki@99,

Thanks for doing so and for checking that the issue is with the TTS engine and not specifically with our Editor!

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello EduardoMartins, So you would effectively need the dropdown field to be locked when the file is signed by say the first person. However there is no such option for signatures to selectively lock only some fields. You can either lock all or none. An alternative would be to ask each person to mak...

Hello DamienRhenus,

Thanks for the update and for providing Paul the logs! I am sure he will get back to you as soon as he has had a change to check those!

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello Nimrod_189, The Viewer has been discontinued for 10+ years now, so I am no longer sure if it was possible to have custom scripts in it. It is however possible to add custom toolbar buttons to the Editor: How do I add a custom tool to the toolbar, using JavaScript, in the Editor? Kind regards, ...

Hello EduardoMartins, Applying a digital signature requires you saving (a copy of) the document, so I do not believe it is possible for one form field to add a signature in another and then lock it. However when a digital signature is applied that would usually make the field "locked" anyw...

Hello IT-Services,

At the moment I see that it has been assigned to a developer, but I can not give you an estimate as to when it would be fixed, sorry!
So yes - it could be a few more weeks before there is any movement on that ticket.

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello vivid_rabbit,

The above comments are discussing a feature different than what you seem to be doing.
Can we please have a few screenshots of your set up, and maybe a sample page with such a figure where you get that figure dead to you?

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello vivid_rabbit,

Welcome to our forums.
Are those Back and Forward buttons you refer to in our Editor or buttons inside the TTS engine?

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello Damien,

Thanks for starting those verbose logs. Do let us know if you find anything else on your end on this!

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello dwav,

Our end user products are not designed in a way that would allow you to control them via code, and the SDKs are no longer being sold - so there's no way for you to use them via C#.

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello masster, For batch processing you need to use PDF Tools. The option to delete the N pages from the start or end of a document are there. The Editor can not batch process multiple files and that is on purpose as it is aimed more at a single file (except when you are e.g. merging several files i...

Hello MedBooster,

You will need the "addMenuItem, addSubMenu, addToolButton" in your JS dependng on where you want the tool to appear, and Mathew here has a good example on how it is to be done:
