AxAcroPDFLib.AxAcroPDF.LoadFile changes?

Hi,

I have made a Windows client application where I use the AxAcroPDF control to display a pdf-file on a form.

It seems to me that after I have upgraded my Acrobat reader from version 8 to version 9 the LoadFile method returns true when the file is opened correctly, where version 8 returned false. Is this a correct observation?

Best Regards, Krimson

Not at all! The version of Acrobat doesn't influence in the way AxAcroPDF control works. You must debug to see what happens

LoadFile returns -1 on success, 0 on failure. This can be found in the documentation for Acrobat 9. I can't find the online reference for version 8, but I downloaded it from Adobe and it is the same. What programming language are you using? Have you got some sample code?

I'm using c#. I've created a Windows Forms UserControl, where the AxAcroPDFLib.AxAcroPDF control is hosted. This Windows Forms UserControl is used within a WindowsFormsHost in a WPF application.Which part do you want to see sample code from?

Where the mystery return code is obtained - the call and the result, and the difference between version 8 and 9.

I realize this thread is a little old, but I made the same observation and I had to change my code for the 9.0 version.

Did you find any way to test which version of the Acrobat Reader is installed?
