Set calculation order
When you define two or more calculations in a form, the order in which they are carried
out is the order in which you set the calculations. If you want to use the results obtained
from calculating two form fields to calculate the value of a third form field, the first two
form fields must be calculated together first to obtain the correct results. Click the
Calculation Order button under the Form tab.
About running JavaScript
With Foxit PhantomPDF, you can invoke JavaScript code using actions associated with
documents, bookmarks, links, and pages. Foxit PhantomPDF provides four options:
Document JavaScript, Document Action, JavaScript Console, and Edit All JavaScripts. The
Document JavaScript lets you create or access document level scripts in Foxit PhantomPDF.
The Document Action lets you create document-level JavaScript actions that apply to the
entire document. The JavaScript Console provides an interactive and convenient interface
for testing portions of JavaScript code and experimenting with object properties and
methods. The Edit All JavaScripts option allows you to create and edit all JavaScripts (e.g.
bookmark JavaScripts, page JavaScripts, etc.) in the JavaScript Editor.
Optional Database connectivity to Windows ODBC
The Optional Database Connectivity plug-in is a JavaScript object inside Foxit PhantomPDF,
allowing you to connect to Windows ODBC (Open Database Connectivity) data sources.
Also, developers can create document level-scripts to connect to a database for the
purposes of inserting new data, updating information, and deleting database entries.
Currently, ADBC (Acrobat Database Connectivity) is a Windows only feature and requires
Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) provided by Microsoft.
