Dear Expert,
I have read your "Date/Time" online article on how to implement an automatic current date when a PDF document is printed, and unfortunately I still was not able to do it. I was wanting to know if I could put an automatic current date on word documents and then convert them to PDF, if then the PDF documents would print an automatic current date. Thanks so much for your help!

Open the Page Properties of this pdf file, click the Action tab, examine the JavaScript for the Page Open. Duplicate this example on the page you want to display the current date. Make sure the field name in the script matches the field name on the page.
