Reset Function

PDF docs have a "DidSave" and a "DidPrint" event. You clould put the reset code here. Look in the
"Advanced > Document Processing > Set Document Actions..." menu itemThom Parker

Thanks for your suggestion. I am new at writing script. What tweaks do I need to make to this to get it to work for reset after save?

save = function(){
document.forms['formname'].reset()
}

Are you getting any JavaScript console errors?

If so, please post the entire error text.

It appears you are trying to use Web JavaScirpt, but Acrobat and LiveCycle Designer only use the EMCA standard JavaScript along with the Acrobat JavaScript extensions.

After reading more I think I have figured out that I need to use this script. What do I enter in the "dothis()" portion to reset the whole document.

Mr. Kaiseril is correct. Acrobat event processing is a bit different from browser scripting. To start off, try this. Enter this code into the DidSave script.

this.resetForm();

Use the menu item shown in my first post

when I entered this it reset the form after I saved but the saved copy is blank and did not hold the entered text....

Ahh, did you place the script in the "DidSave" event? WillSave happens before the save and DidSave happens after the save. I did a test on Acrobat 8 Pro, no problems.
