I have created an order form using Acrobat and I now need to create a field which will automatically generate sequnetial numbers when printing a number of copies(these would act as order reference numbers). Can this be done using acrobat? And if it can, can I get step by step advice? Thanks

As a matter of fact this can be done.
The following instructions assume this is a LiveCycle form

1. Place a "count" field on the form.
2. Add initialization code to set an initial number
3. In the pre-Print event add this code

this.rawValue++;
