Acrobat DC API.

is Acrobat DC API exist ?
Can I use Acrobat DC in my web application in order to programatically insert form field in an output pdf file ?

If you read the current release notes
https://helpx.adobe.com/content/dam/help/en/EchoSign/Adobe-EchoSign-Apr15-Release-Notes.pd f
you see the Premium version has an API and offers Account Sharing and Users and Groups.  The release notes do not say you need premium but I you can see the UI screenshots are for a premium user.
I would be interested in having the ability to tell my PDF signature field, that when I am signed, place this document in this Sharepoint folder.  The folder would then have it's own notifications and work as a work que for some person or group.
Same idea for Alfresco, or CRM systems.
Is there a premium DC account or do you need to get an enterprise offering of some kind?

  • VBA - How to detect Acrobat core API vs. Adobe Reader

    I'm working on a VBA project and want to have PDF editing included as an optional function. I know that editing and saving PDFs is restricted to the Acrobat core API, but I can't seem to get VBA to differentiate between them.
    My reference library is using Adobe Acrobat 10.0 Type Library, and because I have Adobe Acrobat installed, I can edit/save just fine.
    A coworker's machine is also using Adobe Acrobat 10.0 Type Library, he does NOT have Adobe Acrobat installed, and cannot edit/save.
    My problem is this: I can't figure out how to tell VBA who does and does not have the Acrobat features installed and who doesn't. The GUID for the reference pulls 10.0 Type Library on both machines. I want VBA to check the users references and verify they do or do not have access to editing so I can lockout the features.
    Is there a way to pull what version/access the user has from the library?

    Perhaps the simplest way is to do something that fails in Reader, and detect the failure. Probably more reliable than trying to detect the installed product(s), which could also be BOTH Acrobat and Reader.

  • AIR3 (iOS) - Native Extension (objectiveC) - control Acrobat PDF API

    In my iPad app, I want to load in a PDF and then get control of the Acrobat API to allow the user to interact with the PDF as they see fit.
    Is this possible?
    I am making the assumption that there is currently objectiveC code available to use the Acrobat API on the iOS. Can anyone verify?
    I am also making the assumption that through Native Extension I can bridge to this objevtiveC code from AS3 on the iOS. Can anyone please verify?
    Thanks...

    Yes. The ability to word search and jump to a specific page.
    Bringing up a PDF in iOS browser or through StageWebView you cannot perform these actions.
    I've seen iPad apps that can word search and page jump. I'm assuming this is being done with ObjectiveC.
    I'm looking for someone to confirm this is the case.
    Because if so I'm hoping we can then code a Native Extension utilizing this ObjectiveC code and thus control the PDF the way we want.

  • Open external browser from within Acrobat via API?

    My plugin can get the desired path/address, but I can't seem to figure out how to kick off the browser through the API.
    End goal is opening non-Acrobat file types (.xls, .doc) through an external browser.
    Is this possible?
    Using Acrobat SDK 7 and Visual Studio 2005.

    > "first embedded as dataObjects"... This sounds like it would not be reader-compatible, and that's another end-goal.
    It is if you have a LiveCycle Reader Extensions Server to extend the PDF.
    > But http:// links would work?
    Yes.
    > How do I launch a browser?
    Look up the app.launchURL method in the JS API Reference.

  • Where is the official acrobat 3D API?

    I'm quite confused at this point. I found a link pointing to what seems to be the API. http://www.acrobatusers.com/tech_corners/3d/3d_resources/Acro3DJS.pdf however, I can not find any animation methods such as play(), stop() or pause().
    Is this API complete? On a side note I tried searching through Animation Controller.js and it seems they are somehow getting into the runtime object but there really is no documentation for that listed in the API I posted above. Can someone help lead me in the right direction. I simply just want to code against the API to control my 3D object animations.
    -Thanks!

    OK I think I have figured this out a bit. It seems that there really aren't any built animation methods into the API. You have to set and read from the animation.currentTime property.
    I find it a little confusing but it doesn't seem that bad after you take a look at it and walk though everything that is going on in the script. So take a look at the Animation Controller.js in more detail if anyone else has any questions on this matter. You can control the animations but you have to likely set up your own methods to do this.

  • Need a command line switch to close Acrobat Catalog Index batch file

    I am looking for help with a command line switch.  I am VERY new to scheduling tasks and writing scripts.
    Our office created an Acrobat Catalog Index that needs to be updated on a regular basis.  I created a .bpdx file as follows:
    \\dept\SPDintelshare\Analysis\2nd Hand Transaction Logs\Secondhand Transaction Logs.pdx /rebuild
    This runs via Microsoft Task Scheduler from a .bat file as follows:
    "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe" "C:\Documents and Settings\cutrone0999\Desktop\PawnIndex.bpdx"
    The batch runs just like it is supposed to, but it won't close when it is finished re-building.  I have tried using EXIT at the end of the .bat file and that doesn't work.  I also tried a force close for acrobat.exe and that doesn't work either.  The problem is that if I log off my computer the batch will run as scheduled and when I log back on in the morning the scheduled task shows 'running' and I have to end it.  Then I have to re-start my computer or I can't open any Adobe documents.
    If I leave my computer logged on, the batch runs as scheduled and when I log back on in the morning I have to close the dialog boxes showing the index re-ran and then close Adobe.
    I would appreciate any suggestions.  I have googled this every way I can think of and I'm not finding any results that are helpful.  Thank you in advance!

    Acrobat can be opened by a Windows batch process, but a Windows batch process can not trigger a batch process/Action within Acrobat.  It is possible with MacIntosh's Apple Script to open a PDF and run Acrobat JavaScript but not interact with Acrobat's Batch Processing or Acrobat's Actions. Note that opening a BPDX file is different than opening an Acrobat Seq file.
    The catalog/index scheduled update is not part of Acrobat "Batch Process" or "Action". The running of rebuilding of the catalog/index is controlled by the values within the  BPDX file. So if one opens the  BPDX file with Acrobat and a catalog/index is scheduled to be rebuilt or past the scheduled date and time, then the catalog/index build is submitted for precessing by Acrobat..
    Now the issue is how to close Acrobat after this processes has completed. Since Acrobat does not communicate with the Windows OS system, the Widows scheduled process has no way to know when this task has completed. Even though one can use JavaScript to test the status of a submitted Catalog/Index build/rebuild there is no communication of the submitted catalog job unless quired by Acrobat JavaScript. If you check the Acrobat JS API Reference you will see there are 2 possible results for a catalog/index rebuild, a completed rebuild and a termination with errors. One of these should require additional action.
    Further, a recent update to Acrobat JavaScript has added restrictions to using JavaScript to "closeDoc" method which may need to be addressed.
    It is also possible to open an FDF file and add/run JavaScirpts within a PDF, and again this is different than running a "Batch Process"/"Action" in Acrobat.

  • Adobe Acrobat 9 Bug - Organizer file

    I have found a bug in Acrobat 9 where you cannot turn off the organizer. even though you turn it "off" in the program it still accesses, reads and writes to the file located
    "%USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Adobe\Acrobat\9.0\Organizer90"
    this causes a HUGE problem for our clients as our software uses the Acrobat 9 API. Our users are accessing hundreds of documents a day and there are cases where the Organizer90 file reaches upwards of a couple hundred megs per user.
    This also equates to extremely slow PDF access over time.
    Does Adobe know about the issue? it worked just fine in Acrobat 8, but in 9 they broke it.
    Does anyone know a perminent solution or fix?
    Any help is appreciated.

    yeah, we tried the other options, however due to the high volume of pdf files being accessed on thier workstations the file grows exceptionally fast. the ideal situation is to have Organizer not remember PDFs at all.
    The setting you mentioned "Don't remember PDFs" is exactly what we set it to, however, the organizer90 file still remembers the history and grows. (this was not the case in adobe 8, the organizer behavior was working properly)
    We have a temporary workaround for existing users on a workstation to delete the large organizer90 file, launch adobe, open a PDF and save it (it will then recreate the organizer90 file, even with the option "don't remember PDFs" selected), then we mark organizer90 as read only.
    creating an organizer90 file with NULL does not work as there seems to be some adobe information in that file. we tried just creating a NULL file but then Adobe would pop up with errors about the organizer file. (even with the setting turned off)
    Right now, we have to perform this on every workstation for every user that logs into the workstation which is not really an option.

  • Compare two pdf files using adobe acrobat through command line

    Does anyone know how to compare two pdf files using adobe acrobat through command line. I want to do this via command line because we want to compare hundreds of file every day through some automated windows tasks.
    If command line option is not available in acrobat, then is it feasible to make use of acrobat javascript API to do this task?
    Any kind of help will be greatly.

    Command-line: Not possible.
    JavaScript: Possible, but very limited. Basically the only thing you can do is simulate clicking the Compare Documents button. The rest has to be done manually.
    However, it *might* be possible to automate this process a bit more using a plugin. Ask over at the Acrobat SDK forum for more information...

  • Plug-ins for Adobe Acrobat for Android

    Hello,
    My company purchased a PDF that has been protected using the FileOpen DRM Encryption program for PDFs (see www.fileopen.com).
    On a Windows/Mac system, apparently all I would have to do is try to open the PDF file with Adobe reader, and reader would prompt me to download the FileOpen plugin. At that point, the PDF file could be opened on that computer (and only on that computer). However, since the rights limit file access to one device, we were hoping to read the PDF from a tablet PC to facilitate use of the document on-site.
    What I don't know is if this plugin would also work with the Adobe Acrobat Reader X app on an android system. Can this app handle the FileOpen plugin?
    Any help with this would be appreciated.
    Thank you!

  • 200" viewing limitation in Acrobat/Reader?

    Hi all,
    I have a diagram which is 220" inches wide.
    When I open this document in Acrobat/Reader 9.0, it appears blank on the screen. However, when I go to the "View -> Grid" menu option, I am able to see the drawing (even after I turn the "Grid" option back off. (uncheck it)
    When I view the document this way, I notice it has been cut off at the 200" mark. I have read in PDF API documentation that there is a 200" limit in Acrobat/Reader. Is this true?
    When I print the document, it prints in it's entirety (220+").
    Is anyone aware of such a limitation and is there a point release or plugin which may address this issue if it is indeed true?
    Thanks for any help,
    Jesse Perry

    They way I tested this was to use the Acrobat JavaScript console, Advanced > Document Processing > JavaScript Debugger..., to create a new document.
    I created a page that was over 200". The Acrobat JavaScript API measures in points, 72 points to an inch. A 200" page would 14400 points, so in the JS console I wrote:
    app.newDoc(15000, 15000);
    This would create a 208.3 inch document. I checked the size of the resulting document in the Document Properties panel's "General" tab. The document was 200".

  • SendEventToEventTarget fails in Acrobat 8 on Mac

    I have a plug-in which I'm porting from Acrobat 7 to 8 on Mac. I'm using PowerPlant to create a modal dialog which has a text control that captures standard editing keyboard shortcuts such as Command-C, Command-V, and Command-X when it's active. In Acrobat 7, it works fine. In Acrobat 8, however, none of these messages are getting through. The Debugger Console window in Xcode shows messages like the following when one of these keys is pressed:
    2008-03-27 14:48:07.607 Acrobat[3309:613] SendEventToEventTarget() returned -9874.
    Also, the entire application menu, including the Apple Menu, is disabled while my dialog is active. This also happens only under Acrobat 8, and not under Acrobat 7. I think that these two issues may be related: The Command shortcuts in the menu are disabled, so Acrobat can't dispatch the corresponding events. It's a theory, anyway.
    Note that other keyboard shortcuts, such as Command-B, do indeed get passed through to my dialog. It seems to be just the ones that Acrobat itself is using that don't get sent. Note also that other third-party GUI APIs such as wxWidgets seem to be able to handle these keyboard commands in a modal dialog just fine, and the application menu is still accessible. The problem seems to be specific to the combination of PowerPlant and Acrobat 8.
    Is there anything I can call in the Acrobat 8 API to tell Acrobat to send events to my dialog? Or is there something I need to change in the way that PowerPlant is handling events? What's different in Acrobat itself between 7 and 8 that is affecting my dialog?
    Thanks,
    Dan
    (MacBook Pro, OS X 10.5.2, Xcode 2.5)

    Thanks Leonard. I understand the issue with Carbon vs. Cocoa events. I'm not sure it's as simple as that, though. The wxWidgets API is also Carbon-based, but it seems to work fine and handle events under Acrobat 8 in a modal dialog. As far as I can tell, wxWidgets is calling ReceiveNextEvent whereas PowerPlant is calling WaitNextEvent, but they're both Carbon API calls.
    In any case, I'm not sure that the solution is to completely recode everything and maintain two radically different code bases to be able to support both Acrobat 7 and 8. My PowerPlant dialog works just fine, except for this issue. The fact that Acrobat is putting that debugging message in the console window suggests that it has some idea about what's happening.
    There may well be something relatively simple to change from PowerPlant's end to get Acrobat to work with it properly. Perhaps this is a question for a different forum. I was just hoping to get a little bit of insight into why Acrobat is putting out that message.
    Thanks,
    Dan

  • Acrobat 11what to do with the f character.

    Hello all:
       I am parsing text from a PDF using the Acrobat Javascript API.  The code looks like this
       for(var a = 0; a < PageCount; a++)
    for(var b = 0; b < NumWords; b++)
    var TheWord     
    = this.getPageNthWord(a, b, false);
    The problem with this code is that if the word being returned starts with an f or sometimes a Th, the getPageNthWord() function will not recognize the whole word.
    For example, the test passage has in it the word "flyway".  getPageNthWord() returns this word in two segments.  In this case the first two letters "fl" are translataed into character decimal 186 and the last four characters are returned as they are.  So I get two returns from getPageNthWord():
    the Fahrenheit short-hand sign
    "yway"
    In another part of the document the word "fishing" appears.  It is parsed into
    blank value
    shing
    In other words in all cases here, the word is split into two with the first return gobbling up two of the characters while the second returns the last X numbr of characters in the word.  What the first ttwo chars are actually interpreted as varies...I can find no pattern, though I suspect there is one.
    Anyone have any thoughts on what might be going on  here and how to counteract it?
    FYI, the rest of the document is reported on faithfully.
    R,
    JOhn

    It's worth pointing out 2 things...
    1 ligatures are normal and considered to show superior, pofessional typesetting
    2 if a pdf follows recommendations, acrobat knows what ligatures mean, and will automatically replace with multiple characters on copy/paste
    However, if you're extracting text it is up to you to apply the info in the pdf and some foreknowledge, and do your own replacement if needed (IF... Because some situations require the presenvation of ligatures)
    You can use copy from acrobat to test if the ligatures are done right
