Acrobat.tlb / Accessibility.api

Hello,
I'm currently just starting work with the Acrobat APIs. In our product we want to let our customers (who purchase adobe, optionally) create their own legal forms in PDF and send the results to a web page which captures the finished product and stores the final pdf in our document system.
I'm very new to this, so if anyone thinks I might be going down the wrong path I would appreciate it if you let me know. Currently I'm looking at adobe form filler plugin to auto-fill the form with data, and then set the button target (this is something it seems like 3rd party form fillers can not do). We have multiple developers working on this project in source control, my concern is I'll be causing build errors in our system if I make references to Acrobat.tlb etc pit of my C:\Program Files\Acrobat etc since most developers will not have Acrobat installed. Can the plugin references be moved to another location that all developers would have access to and the libraries still work? If so what considerations are there?

What I'm trying to avoid are build errors. We have several product integrations like this, for instance I can think of a PDF form filler we've used in the past (CutePDF SDK). Like you say, for the component to *function* yes you have to have a fully registered version of the library. However, we can all build our projects because the SDK reference is available to us regardless of whether it is installed. The main this is, if it is not installed then you will get a run time error attempting to use that code (and this is acceptable).
Does this make sense, I'm trying to avoid build errors for developers not currently working on adobe. If the adobe project doesn't function on their machines (or for customer not using the feature) that is perfectly A-OK.

Hi Sue,
Does this happen with any particular file or all files?
Since the crash report above mentions accessibility.api, so are you working on any related function like adding tags etc. when Acrobat crashes?
Disable all the 3rd party services working in the background and check.

Error on Device Access API class/interface import

Hi,
I have followed https://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=44785:141:128148408213710::::P141_PAGE_ID,P141_SECTION_ID:144,1032#prettyPhoto/1/ video tutorial to set up Java ME Embedded development environment in my Windows system and I have chosen Raspberry PI as embedded platform for ME applications.
I thought of experimenting on Pi’s GPIO header to control a LED through a Switch. But import statement for com.oracle.deviceaccess.PeripheralConfig is giving error in NetBeans IDE and there is no Java ME library containing this interface in the ME SDK installation directory so that I can include that in project classpath to get rid of this error.
Where can I download the JAR for Device Access API?
Please suggest…
Thank you.

Thank you for your reply.
I could successfully execute ‘blinking LED’ application on Raspberry PI, I have done this using DeviceManager class, GPIOPin interface present in device-io_1.0.jar which has come with ME SDK installation (C:\Java_ME_platform_SDK_8.0\lib).
But https://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=44785:141:10585690084130::::P141_PAGE_ID,P141_SECTION_ID:144,1033#prettyPhoto/2/ demonstrates the same application by using classes and interfaces present in com.oracle.deviceaccess package (for eg, com.oracle.deviceaccess.PeripheralManager, com.oracle.deviceaccess.gpio.GPIOPin) and the import on the same is not working in my IDE (compile time error).
I have used below software installers in a Windows7 system for development environment set up:
Java SE SDK: jdk-8u11-windows-x64.exe
Java ME SDK: oracle-jmesdk-8-0-rr-win32-bin.exe
NetBeans all-in-one bundle: netbeans-8.0-windows.exe
NetBeans plugins for Java ME: oracle-jmesdk-8-0-rr-nb-plugins.zip
I have used only above installers.Have I missed anything during development environment setup??
Please suggest further…
Thanks

PDF embedding & Acrobat's JavaScript API

Hello,
I have two questions.
I currently using Safari 1.3.2 and Acrobat Reader 7.0.9 to test an PDF document embedded in a Web page. In Safari 1.3.2 I get a "This operation is not allowed" warning when the HTML object element and the embed element are encountered.
I have also tested it in Safari 3.0 on Windows, with plug-ins enabled in the Preferences and Acrobat Reader 8 installed. The PDF file is not shown and no warning is given either.
So, does Safari 2.0 support embedding PDF files at all?
My other question is, assuming Safari does support PDF embedding, whether it is possible to interface from an HTML page to the Acrobat plug-in via Acrobat's JavaScript API. In IE this is a simple as getting the object element by id and for example, invoking its Print() method. Is this possible in Safari?
Thank you in advance,
Adal Fraile

Device Access API licensing

I've been looking around, but have been unable to find, any licensing information on the device access API.
Is the package naming for this API (com.oracle.deviceaccess.*) intended to mean that Device Access is intended to be an Oracle "closed source" API and implementation? Or, are there plans to license the API and/or implementation under some sort of open source license similar to OpenJDK?
Thanks,
Hugh

Hi Hugh,
There are plans to update the licensing and make the Device Access API more broadly accessible. Please stay tuned.
Thanks,

Do Acrobat Also provide Api to integrate it with our application

i have a java application to which i have to implement pdf to word converter for that do Acrobat provide some api so that i can integrate it with my application

What would be the setup you are seeking...
- something for individual people who have Acrobat on their desktop and your app too?
- something for a server?
- something royalty free to distribute with your app, no Acrobat needed?
- something for Adobe Reader?
- something else?

Disappeared Acrobat in Access 2007

My computer is running Windows 7 , CS5 (acrobat 9 pro) and Office 2007 suite (Access).
I did not have any problem with Access07 until last Friday.
Today I found that Acrobat tool bar is gone in Access 2007. So I want not able to convert any Access files into pdf file.
When I checked, all other office programs (word, excel, etc) retained Acrobat tool bar.
It seems that Acrobat was disabled in Access2007 during last few days. I wonder how this happened and how to restore acrobat toolbar.
Need your assistance.

I was too busy to visit this forum.
As Bill@VT mentioned, I could make pdf file using PDFMaker.
Anyway, I solved the problem today. I have a mirror image of C-partitions saved two weeks ago using Acronis True Image.
I restoed it today. Bingo!. Disappeared Acrobat tool bar is recovered today.

Flex Widget in Acrobat 9 access xml file

Hi,
I made a Flex application which accesses an xml file on my pc. When I insert the application in Acrobat 9, the data in the xml isn't loaded. I think that the Flash player in Acrobat 9 can't access the xml due to security reasons. Embedding the xml in the swf isn't an option because changes to the xml must be visible. What can I do to load the xml?

I can view the xml file via web browser. one more thing is if
i access the swf file under http request, it does work, say
http://localhost/xxx.swf.
Could tell me why i failed to run the swf file out of project/bin
folder by double click ?
Thanks again.

Server sizing for multi-client Acrobat Reader access of .pdf files

I am trying to specify the appropriate file server (need processor rating & memory size)running Windows 2008 for 64 high tempo users on a LAN accessing large .pdf files (~20 mb each) using Acrobat Reader 8 or 9. Total data package size is about 30 Gig. LAN is Gigabit speed on CAT 6 cable.
Suggestions?

Time is 10:35 PM, Jan 30, 2014 after a day of nerve racking attempts to get Adobe Reader 11.0.6 to open a pdf file I have finally succeeded in doing so. The following apkhan response to my original inquiry, even though it didn't directly help me much, but it gave me an insight that what I was inquiring about in the description of my problem had to do something with the EULA I was inquiring about and couldn't find were and how that is to be done. For whatever reason I had installed Reader 11.0.6 three times throughout the day and still couldn't read a pdf file or see the EULA to agree to it or not. During another installation of Reader 11.0.6 at 9:00PM, 1-30-14, a window appeared and required my administrative password to install the software and rightly so. This is probably the reason why Reader was so dysfunctional, because for whatever reason, this approval window didn't appear during the initial installations but I was allowed to install Reader anyways and the proof of it was it did end up in my Applications Folder-confusing and strange at best. Without my administrative password the software should not have been allowed to be installed and this has always been the case. I will have to dwell upon that one for a while. Anyway, for everyones information, the Mac version of 11.0.6 Adobe Reader doesn't ask for you to click a button to Agree or Not Agree to an EULA verbiage statement. Just above the INSTALL BUTTON (Yellow Background) on the installation window the instructions notes, when you hit the install button you aromatically agree to the EULA and the way you go. I tried getting into the EULA via the Adobe the desktop Icon but to no avail. Hopes this helps someone else. Thanks to those at the Adobe Community that tried to help me with this mind boggling episode.

Acrobat and Access 2007

I got 2 problems, when i have an access 2007 report and use the function "create and attach to email", on the following mail window, i want that the transmission confirmation and the return receipt check boxes are activated already, unfortunately Outlook 2007 settings have nothing to do with it.
Well, i have to send 40-50 reports each day by email, so it's kinda annoying to hit those 2 check boxes for every mail.
Another problem, after i've sent the mail, the mailwindow isn't closing automatically, i have to close it every time by hitting the X button. Thats annoying too.
Before, i used Acrobat 7 and Office 2003, and the mail window was closed after sending each time, now with Acrobat 9 and Office 2007 it isn't anymore :(
Anyone got a solution for these problems?
Kind regards and merry xmas.
Chris

The first problem which you mentioned is more likely a MS Outlook bug. Try this. Launch Word and open any document. Now go to 'Office Button-> Send-> Email' option. This will create a new mail window with attached word document. Now check the options for transmission confirmation and the return receipt in the mail. Both of them are unchecked. So it's outlook which is not honoring the settings. This behavior is reproducible from MS Access as well (Office button-> Email option). Please check with MS support on this issue. Thanks.

Acrobat XI annots.api error

I've been running Acrobat XI Standard for a few months. Just today it started giving me an error on startup of the plug_ins\Annots.api is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error.
How can I fix this please?
Thanks.

Thank you for that suggestion. I did not know about the REPAIR option.
I ended fixing the problem with the latest update. I had to download it manually, even though I had the options set to automatically update and assumed I had the latest update.
Best regards.

Handling 3d objects using JavaScript for Acrobat 3D Annotations API

I am trying to learn how to handle 3d objects with this manual: http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/js_3d_api_reference.pdf
When I execute some code, for example,
myTimeHandler= new TimeEventHandler();
myTimeHandler.onEvent= function( event )
console.print( "Current simulation time is:" + event.time );
console.print( " second(s)" );
runtime.addEventHandler( myTimeHandler );
I get an error like this:
TimeEventHandler is not defined
Why?
P.S. I have 3d object in the document, and can get it with function getAnnots3D.

You have to run the code in the context of the 3D annotation (by attaching the script to the annotation's properties panel, or by right-clicking the active 3D scene and choosing "run a javascript". You cannot run it in the console.
