So you've decided to move your Acrobat forms over to an Adobe LiveCycle Designer workflow. What happens to all of the JavaScript code you have written in the past to enhance your PDFs? Here's a tip from Chris Dahl that takes the pain out of this transition.

Do you need to add stamps to hard copies of your PDF documents? This JavaScript tip from ARTS PDF's Sean Stewart allows for the addition of time and date stamps, expiry dates or other information to give you even greater control of your sensitive PDF documents.

The following JavaScript code can be added to a button, bookmark or even link. When the user activates the button / bookmark / link a popup menu will be displayed on screen listing the page numbers (in page blocks of 20). If the user selects a page number that page will be silently printed to the default printer, no dialog boxes will be displayed.
Not everything fits neatly onto a standard page. Sometimes a larger page size is needed, and this tip shows you how.

To create a table array where multiple columns or rows need individual form fields, begin by manually creating a field for each row or column.
With Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Professional, you can preserve the layers in the Adobe PDF documents created from Microsoft Visio or Autodesk AutoCAD drawings. This tip from Adobe.com shows you how.
Acrobat 6.0 added significant functionality, including richer support for JavaScript. We detail how to print PDFs using JavaScript.

In previous versions of Acrobat, users could simply choose a menu item from the Form fields menu to change the Tab order of Form fields. When version 6 hit the streets this option simply vanished! We get to the bottom of this functionality in Acrobat 6.

With the introduction of Acrobat 6.0 comes the new 'disclosed' PDF document property, and its value determines whether a PDF can be accessed by JavaScript from within other PDF documents. Our latest sheds some light on this subject.
