support for scripts in forms

[denzil]

Any plans to do this? For example, I have PDF forms with a series of fields, where the first is a user-entered number and the remaining fields have a simple FormCalc 'previous field name +1' sort of thing so that the remaining fields end up with a series of whole numbers starting from the first.

It is good to see PDFX now has some form support, but it doesn't appear to recognise the script.

Hi denzil,

can you send us the form in question and we'll take a look?

OK, sample attached. A number is entered in the top left field. This number is repeated in the single field at the top, and gets one added on each one. So, for example, you enter "1". The field next to it becomes 2, the next 3 and so on. The final number is repeated in the single box at the bottom.

Hi denzil,

thanks for that. I see the same here, the script works in Adobe Reader but not our Viewer.

I have raised a Support Request Ticket to track the progress of this investigation and we will post here the results as they come to hand.
