importTextData ( rootPath + data, dataRowNumber ) After reading the header row, Acrobat starts counting data rows from 0 `dataRowNumber` till it passes the last row, then we'll break out of the loop (below) We don't know ahead of time how many rows there will be, so keep incrementing Acrobat can match up your data/cell values to the fields in your form Var rootPath = "/Users/zyoung/Downloads/Awesome_Form/" Define root path: where you've put input TXT data, the input form, and where the output forms will be created This will give you an empty TXT file with the columns/header your input data file will need: The easiest way to make sure you have the correct fields in your data TSV/TXT file is just open your form in Prepare Form mode and export the form. The documentation for Javascript in Acrobat:įrom that Doc methods page, search for importTextData which is the backbone of this script/automation. Instructions for Installing Folder Level Scripts (Automation Tools) and Plug-ins.If you're running directly in the debugger, you'll be in a Privileged mode and that'll be that, but if you want to run from a button in a PDF, you'll need to read up on security, functions, automation, etc.: It's pretty easy to open Debugger, copy-paste your code into View → Console, then Cmd/Ctrl-A to select-all, and finally Cmd/Ctrl-Enter to "run selected". This is a pretty good starting place, even for Mac, The Acrobat JavaScript Console (Your best friend for developing Acrobat JavaScript). Search around for "Run Javascript in Acrobat debugger/console". You'll need some familiarity with running JavaScript in Acrobat. All the files necessary to test this process are included below, except the empty form PDF which I don't think I can upload/include, even in a comment, so I'll at least show a picture of the PDF in Prepare Form mode:
