I have red through all the post concerning this and to be honest I am not much smarter than when I started.
I have tried to use the example posted by radzmar which I modifed as shown below but nothing happens:
I've placed the following in the directory:
C:\Adobe\Acrobat\8.0\JavaScripts
1. The folder level JS SaveAs.js
// Defining a trusted function
var mySaveDoc = app.trustedFunction(function(doc)
{
// Check current doc name
var aDocumentFileName = this.documentFileName;
// If-Statement for ensuring, that the save fuction is only done if PDF has exactly this name
if (aDocumentFileName == "Registration Form.pdf")
{
app.beginPriv();
// Save under Users documents
var myPath = app.getPath("user", "documents") + "/" + "Registration Form" + " - " + Part1 + " - " Part2 + " - " + Part3 + " - " + ".pdf";
doc.saveAs(myPath);
app.endPriv();
}
});
2. Added JS to the click event of a button:
//Defining variable(s) used for new filename
var Part1 = resolveNode("ReportForms.#pageSet[0].Att1.#area[0].txtCompanyname").rawValue;
var Part2 = resolveNode("ReportForms.#pageSet[0].Att1.#area[0].txtCompanyID").rawValue;
var Part3 = resolveNode("ReportForms.#pageSet[0].qrr_P1.#area[0].ReportDate").rawValue;
event.target.mySaveDoc(event.target);
Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?
mySaveDoc(event.target);
Next, the Part1, Part2, and Part3 variables are defined locally in the button script. They are not availible to the function. You'll need to pass these parameters as function arguments.
When the code was run it should have reported an error in the Console window. See the material on the console window in the links below.
