Date and time stamp

[Former Community Member]

Hello there!

Using LiveCycle Designer and Reader Extensions, is there a way to insert the date and time when a document has been created?

What must I use, JavaScript?

Thank you for any hints.

Do you mean when the document is opened by the user or when the Reader Extensions are applied?

Actually I need the PDF to have a date of when it was printed.

Thank you.

You could add code to the prePrint event that woudl enter the current Date and time into a field onto the form. This date and time woudl be taken from the local system. There is a Current Date object in the Custom library. Use that but take the code that is in the Layout Ready event and move it to the PrePrint event.
