When opening Adobe Acrobat Pro, whether it be through Applescript or finder, the introductory dialog is shown. Is there a way to not show this dialog without already having checked the "Don't Show Again" option when opening a document using Applescript? Photoshop and Illustrator Applescript libraries have ways of setting interaction ...
Can anyone tell how Adobe Acrobat 9 was made? I like the look and feel of the GUI and I'm curious how it was made. Specifically, what programming language was used to make it? ...
Title says it all. I know this can be done in IE by creating an ActiveX object, but how do I do it in FF. The navigator.plugins['Adobe Acrobat'] object lets me know if it's installed or not, but it doesn't contain the version number. Any ideas? ...
Hi I am looking to automate the conversion of an excel sheet into a pdf document (I do not want to manually print the report generated in excel as a pdf document every morning). For now, I would like to create a button in excel that will run the macro to automatically generate the pdf document, but this button will eventually not be us...
Up to v8 of Acrobat Full Product (not Reader) I could set a web address into the preferences in the markup section, then if I opened a PDF file from that same web address via a browser then Acrobat would enable the annotation toolbar. From Acrobat v9 the preference settings 'appear' to have been changed so that this is not possible. Ca...
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 ...
We have been reading and writing Sticky Notes/Annotations/Comments to pdfs via an activex control in our application for a number of years. We have recently upgraded to Delphi2009 with Unicode Support. The following is causing problems. When we call CAcroPDAnnot.GetContents The results seem to be rather strange and we lose our Uni...
I have a PDF that is being generated from HTML source using HTMLDOC. While I am able to view the file fine on my mac, and on every version of Acrobot that I can get my hands on, some end users are showing some pages as completely blank. The blank pages are somewhat unique in that they do contain images, but I do not see why this would ...
Hello There, I've recently discovered Stack Overflow and I simply love it! I have got a problem at work and thought I should post that here first. I am looking for a way to invoke the print/save/email functions from the Adobe Reader plugin in the browser. To better explain, please open the following image in your browser: http://style...
Hi, Does anyone use the annotations functionality of Adobe PDFs remotely? eg accessing them via script or COM? I am having trouble with getting UNICODE info out of a pdf and wondered if anyone had come across similar issues? ...
I'm trying to build a web app to programmatically fill out a PDF form. I am going to configure my form first in Adobe Acrobat, then write a Java app with iText to fill out all the form fields via user input from the web. The base form I need to fill out comes from the US government. They created form fields with extremely large kerning (...
This code js_obj := oAcroPDDoc.GetJSObject; js_obj.Collab.showAnnotToolsWhenNoCollab := true; which used to work in Acrobat 7 and 8 (and was infact required to enabled editing of note/annotations/comments) appears to crash Acrobat 9. Does anyone know if there is a work around (the one listed here does not work for me). Anyone from A...

I want the image to show a tooltip with the author of that anotation when you hover on that image. Is this doabe 2) I am setting bookmarks. When you look at the bookmarks in the bookmark pane how ...
My question is similar to "How can I programmaticly open a pdf at a certain point?", but the PDF is local, not on a web server. I need a way to jump to a given page in a PDF that is on the users computer, that works across versions of Acrobat (or using an alternative PDF viewer like Foxit Reader). The PDF is going to be called from a Ja...
We have a form that hosts the WebBrowser control. That is the only control on the form. We pass the form the file path of a temporary PDF file and it does: WebBrowser1.Navigate(Me._PathToPdf) When the form is closing, it navigates away from the PDF file: WebBrowser1.Hide() WebBrowser1.Navigate("about:blank") Do Until WebBrowser1.Re...
I was wondering if there is any way to notify a user in adobe reader that a pdf form has been submitted to the server? I am submitting a normal http/html form to a php script no big deal, straight forward, but there seems to be a big "black hole" in documentation, forums etc. as to what happens when the form is submitted. Isn't there a ...

Hello, I am embedding Adobe Acrobat in our c# program by inheriting AxHost and passing in the Acrobat guid("ca8a9780-280d-11cf-a24d-444553540000") to the base constructor. To load a pdf I call InvokeMember("LoadFile"). The problem I am running into is after calling "LoadFile" and the PDF loads, Acrobat takes the focus in our form. Being ...
