Supported Document JavaScript

In PDF Studio when creating custom functions/actions for specific items such as form fields, bookmarks, or document actions you will need to use JavaScript for the commands. JavaScript can perform calculations, button actions (adding images, submitting forms, or populating other fields), validate field input, and set field formatting, among many other things.

Note: PDF Studio only supports Acroform (non-LiveCycle) JavaScript in PDF forms.

You will need to have advance knowledge in programming JavaScript in order to create the actions for the buttons. For additional details on how to use these functions, take a look at the tutorials and lessons on this site http://www.w3schools.com/js/js_intro.asp

PDF Studio supports the following JavaScript commands for each of the below items.
