Writing Text with JavaScript

Hello all and thanks for checking out this topic.

I'm curious if it's possible to generate dynamic text from form fields in Acrobat.

In my PDF, I hope to generate a contract between two parties using data entered on Page 1 of the PDF.

If possible, it would be wonderful to have the rest of the pages (the contract section) filled in with the values from Page 1.

If not possible, is there a similar program (like Word or Excel) that might be able to achieve this?

I would easily be able to do this with a web application, but I am confined to work solely within Acrobat.

Any ideas :)

Thank you!

It is possible, in LiveCycle Designer use the "global" field attribute and in Acrobat AcroForms just give the text fields the same name.
