Hello together,

I really like fillpdf, but I have a problem when it comes to scripts inside the Adobe Acrobat document. I have multiple PDFs that I want to fill out automatically. These documents have some Fields(column sum and column average) that are filled by an Adobe Acrobat scripts. If I fill the lines by fillpdf, the script doesn't notice any change and does not calculate the new result of the sum and average. An ugly workaround is to open after fillpdf every single document, make some random changes, and let the script calculate the sum and the average. Another bad workaround would be to calculate the sum and the average on my own, and then just put the result inside the sum and average fields of the PDF.

How can this be done in a better way? Can I somehow "touch" the PDF to make him clear that I have changed something, and force him to recalculate the fields?

Thank you.
