5.3 The “Export Field Names” Window
The “Export Field Names” window can be accessed by selecting “Export ARTS PDF
Variform Plus Field Names” from the Acrobat “Tools” pulldown menu, or by clicking on
the
button on the Acrobat toolbar.
The “Export Field Names” function is
particularly useful when the user does
not know the field names used in the
Acrobat document, or when there are
a large number of field names and
comparing them with the field names
in the data file would otherwise be
difficult. This function allows the user
to export the Acrobat form field names to a text file so that they can be used to ensure
that the field names in the data file match.

Delimiter:
This list allows the user to select the type of delimiter to be used to separate field names
in the exported file. Choices are Tab, Comma, Semicolon, or Space.
in the exported file. Choices are Tab, Comma, Semicolon, or Space.
•
Qualifier:
This allows the user to specify how field names which contain the selected delimiter are
to be identified in the exported file. Choice are “None”, “Double-quote (“)”, or “Single-
quote (‘)”. If a field name contains the selected delimiter and no qualifier is chosen,
Variform will automatically use Double-quotes to ensure that the field is treated as a
single field instead of two separate fields. Only field names that contain the delimiter will
be qualified.

Images
Variform can merge using any image file format supported by Acrobat. Images can only
be merged to a properly created button form field. See the Acrobat Help document for
information on creating button fields with images. When creating a data file the complete
path to the image file(s) must be included in the data file (i.e.
C:\MyImages\ImageOne.tif).
