I have a government form that I need to fill with values calculated from a database. When I open a document with Foxit, each field has a format property which includes a category. When the category is Date I get options like m/d, m/d/yy, m/d/yyyy etc...

Is there a function where I can programmatically get that value, similar to GetFormFiledDefaultValue or GetFormFieldDescription?

Hi Luke,

not automatically inside QuickPDF.

You can extract all properties of a form field and then you'll find these things you mentioned ... but that's all.

Thanks. Can we add that as a request? It would be extremely useful for those who do not have control over the forms we need to fill out.

Hi Luke,

Debenu has published an official support page where you can post your ideas.

Here inside the community forum such a request makes no sense.
