Hi Pavan,

Can you please Explain me in detail? I don't know anything about that Java script in PDF. Where can i suppose to write the code for that?

Thanks in Advance,

Hi Bhavik,

What I would suggest to you is that you read the Designer documentation on Events and when each event is trigger. Now it is in these events that you can put up formcalc script or java script.

Lets say for example we have a requirement to hide a field in the pdf form. We would have also one record element, which tells us what mode.

The we might pick an event lets say formready. And place the following code

if($record.<field> == "HIDE" )

then

this.presence="invisible"

endif

I think for further information on this you can refer the form calc reference in the help.

Hi Bhavik,

If you are looking about hiding or enabling elements, on the PDF form then you could make use of the Formcalc or Java script on the form.

So you would include some record attributes that will help u decide the condition, to do this.
