Hi!! how are you?
I've been looking everywhere over the web, and i couln't find a solution for this problem:
I have a PDF Form with at least 15 pages. When the user completes the form, he/she could choose to send extra info (another form). If so, I want to show some hidden pages to the user, so that he/she could fill in and send together with the other form. So, depending what the user input, I want to show/hide some pages of the form.

Is there any way to do so in Acrobat using Javascript??!!

THANKS IN ADVANCED!!!!!

You will have to use the "template" object of Acrobat to be able to show or hide a page. Once you have made each page a template, you then use the JavaScript template object's hidden property to hide or display any given template of a page.

The above process will not work with Reader. So if any of your users have only Reader this will not work.
