Feature Automatic file name in form

[hEINSTEIN]

Good day

Is it possible to get Foxit to take the filename and fill it in automatic in the form?

Hi

Sure, you can use this script:

this.getField("NAME").value = this.documentFileName;

JRB where do I put this code in?

hEINSTEIN ,The following Javascript codes are written into "Document Javascript" level：
function getname()

{

var f = this.getField("Text Field0");

f.value = this.documentFileName;

}

getname();

For details,please refer to attached screenshot:document javascript.jpg.

Lisa_lee Thanx a million

Lisa_lee Could you perhaps help me with getting rid of the file extension as well?
The file names are not all the same lengths.

Thank you
I don't know coding (but see that I could benefit from learning it).

Do you mean you want to remove '.pdf'? I am afraid it is not easier to remove it, we need to double check with my team. May I know why did you want to remove it? Thank you.

Hi @Richell_huang because its my document name and we don't show the file extension in a document name.

You can use this script:

function getname() {

var sName = this.documentFileName;
aText = sName.split(".");
aText.pop();
this.getField("Text Field0").value = aText;
}
getname();

JRB Thanks for sharing.Actually,we have already created a demo file with the following scripts included which could meet user's requirement:

function getname()

{

var f = this.getField("Text Field0");

var cStr = this.documentFileName;

f.value = cStr.split(".");

}

getname();
