Hi Biju,

sorry but there's no single command for this.

As far as i know there's no similar command in acrobat itself.

You have to use GetFormFieldCount and within a loop you have to check the formfieldtype.

If it's a textfield put a space or '' in it, if it's a numeric field put a 0 inside and so on.

Cheers and welcome here,

Ingo

Hi Ingo,

Thanks for the reply.

I understand that each fields need to be clear by its value.

Can you provide me the code that click a command or push button programatically ?.

I have buttom in the same form that will reset form to its default value if pressed manually.

So, if the code can press this button automatically, it will solve my issue.

Thank you in advance for your reply.

Hi,

QuickPDF allows javascript code putting behind button actions.

I'm not a javascript-freak - Dr. Google will answer you with code samples.

How to put it then into Quickpdf you'll find on the official support pages.

Here what's supported by QuickPDF:

Now you have to search for a matching javascript code ... Sorry ;-)
