Summary: Password protection for Adobe Form with Java Script
Approach:
1.Go to Transaction SFP
2. Create a form
3. Go to Layout and create a text on Master page as shown below
4. Create Password check for adobe form
->Go to the Initialize event of DATA as shown below
->Write down below code
//Decalre variables
var a=1;
var b=2;
var password;
//Prompt for password from user to open the adobe form
password = xfa.host.response(“Enter the Password”,”The title”,”123″);
//Check for Correct password
{
if (password == “123”) // In this case Password id hard coded to 123
{
xfa.host.messageBox(“Right password”,”You Know right”,3,0);
a = 1;
b = 1;
}
else
{
xfa.host.messageBox(“Wrong password”,”You know ur Wrong”,1,1);
a = 1;
b = 2;
password = xfa.host.response(“Enter the Password”,”The title”,”123″);
}
}
while( a != b );
5. Now execute the form
-> Do not forget the mark Fillable of Form I/P as ‘X’
and execute.
Now, Adobe form will ask for password as shown below
Till correct password is enetered this pop up will appear. We can download this form and try to open still password protection will be vaild.
Drawbacks:
->Password is harcoded, I do not how to check with an value from table or rule dynamically
->I ain’t any good in Java scipt, hence could not hide password ( genrally it works with form calc)
Hi Siva Rama Krishna,
I have tried the above example, when I fill the parameter Fillable = ‘X’, I get exception as below:
Exception SYSTEM_ERROR
Message ID: FPRUNX Message number: 001
Message:
ADS: com.adobe.ProcessingException: com.adobe.Processin(200101)
Kindly advice.

Siva
Thanks all.. I have solved it…
Dear Siva Ramakrishna,
with code provided its not allowing to close the application if at all with wrong password. and if I click Esc on keyboard its giving java script debugger pop-up and then allowing to access the document. any solution you suggest?
Hi Sateesh,
The intention of the code is not to display form if wrong password has been entered.
You have to enter the right password to display form, else we need to close it.
We can click on Cancel and close the adobe form.

Siva.P
Dear Muhammed Safel, can you tell how you solved the issue ?
