Auto Populate and Repeat Form Fields in Adobe PDFs

Three different ways to auto populate form fields by repeating or duplicating a form field throughout your PDF in Adobe Acrobat Pro. See how to create repeating fields that users fill in once, and the response populates in other parts of your PDF. This is useful when you capture a user's Name at the top of a form and then you want that person's name to populate in other places throughout the PDF document. Scenario 1: Duplicate Across PDF Pages - Automatically copies the field once at the top of each page of your PDF Useful to auto populate a Name or DOB on top of each page of a packet of forms Scenario 2: Copy & Paste - Allows you to place the field anywhere throughout the PDF where you want that field repeated Useful when you want to duplicate a field to appear in multiple places Scenario 3: Custom JavaScript - Allows you to program existing form fields to auto populate from a designated field Useful when your existing form field properties are already named, and you want to set them to auto populate JavaScript code used in this video: var field1Value = this.getField("Name1").value; this.getField("Name2").value = field1Value; //Replace "Name1" and "Name2" in the code above with your respective field names how to repeat fields in Adobe PDF forms, PDF fillable form duplicate fields, how to duplicate form fields in adobe PDF forms, duplicate form fields in adobe acrobat, how to auto populate fields in adobe acrobat, how to auto populate a text field in adobe #adobeacrobat #pdf #forms #fillableforms TIMESTAMPS ⏰ 00:00 Auto Populate Form Fields in Adobe Acrobat Pro 00:09 Duplicate Across PDF Pages 01:32 Copy & Paste PDF Fields 03:38 Custom JavaScript to Auto Populate a Field 🎓FREE COURSE: How To Create Fillable Forms in Microsoft Word - A Step-by-Step Guide Create Fillable Forms, Surveys & Questionnaires in Microsoft Word like a Pro! https://youtu.be/438pCPCSuG4 WATCH NEXT 📺 Collect & Track PDF Form Data: https://youtu.be/IHmgxFTaMfA CHANNEL LINK 📺 https://www.youtube.com/@SharonSmith Visit my Channel page on YouTube to see all my videos, playlists, community posts and more!
