Hi,
I am new using adobe pdf and also coding in JavaScript, I have a form with 8 questions, in each of the question I have 3 or 4 radio buttons, how do I setup the radio buttons to make the field to be required before print? Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

Hi Sandy123,

There is no way to prevent printing because one of the radio button groups is not checked. You could alert the user that a question has no response and direct them to answer it before printing with some JavaScript.

Here are some threads at AUC that cover some of what you can do with radio button and detecting if they have been selected or not-
