It works or at least I managed to type some text into the text box. I made a couple of changes to the text which I think makes it a bit more idiomatic in English (see attached. I hope you don't mind.
I spent what seemed like forever installing the blasted insdljs.sty and it worked. For those having the same problem in Ubuntu I 1) created a texmf folder at root level following these directions http://nmv.stat.cmu.edu/2012/06/14/managing-latex-packages-manually-in-ubuntu-12-04/ and then following instructions from http://www.latex-community.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=8886 2. cd'd to the texmf/tex/latex/acrotex directory 3. ran sudo texhash 4 ran latex acrotex.ins Reconfigured LyX and everything ran nicely. ________________________________ From: Alex Vergara Gil <a...@cphr.edu.cu> To: lyx-users Users <lyx-us...@lists.lyx.org>; lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org Sent: Thursday, March 21, 2013 10:20:15 AM Subject: Creating pdf forms template Hello Lyxers! In the lasts days I was learning how to create PDF forms using LyX. But this process require a few javascript knowledge. I´ve tried my best to translate to english the attached template (an improvement of previous in spanish) in which you will see that objects are actually created but the scripts doesn´t behave as I expect. Someone please help me to set this to work. I think this is a first step to make a good template and if we manage to obtain an impresive one and people starts using it then it should be a feature request to support form creation natively in LyX, hopely as a new toolbox. What do you think about this? Please don´t feel offended by my (bad) english, I really make my best effort to translate it. Regards Alex
