How to detect the Acrobat Browser Plug-in version installed on a users system for non-IE browsers?

How to detect the *Acrobat Browser Plug-in version* installed on a users system, on Firefox, Safari, Opera, etc?
Or one script for detecting Plug-in version for major browsers. Need full example code.

Wrote an article on this with code samples (Javascript + HTML) - basically there are differences between IE and other browsers. Chrome natively comes with the Chrome PDF Viewer so I've incorporated that in my detection script.
The script detects the browser type, and the installed acrobat version...
Have a look here:

  • How to identify the Photoshop Trial or Licensed version installed, only through files/registry ?

    Hi,
    Please help me out here.
    I need to identify the Adobe Photoshop CS4 Trial installation to that of fully purchased/licensed installation,
    only using files/registry entries.
    Thanks in Advance.

    To back up what Mylenium said you can take the trial download and insert your s/n of the purchased copy and it will be  a fully licenced copy.
    If you had a trial and let it expire you should uninstall it.  I am just guessing, but if you see it in your program list and open it should be obvious if trial or not.  Uninstalled trials can cause Bridge to have error "need to activate from parent program".

  • We use a plugin Adobe Acrobat NPAPI Plug-in Version 10.1.2 on a Mac to get the pdf to open in a browser window. Is there a later version or other method ?

    We use a plugin Adobe Acrobat NPAPI Plug-in Version 10.1.2 on a Mac to get the pdf to open in Acrobat and the pdf display within the browser window, as within our Online artwork Approval system we use the Acrobat Annotations server to annotate pdfs and publish to the server
    But we can no longer get this plugin to work! Is there a later version ? or is there another way of forcing the pdf to open in a Acrobat Reader application (not the Mac viewer) within the browser and not open another window to display the pdf in Acrobat?

    The latest version is 11.0.6. Whether that's available to you depends on the version of Mac OS you're running.

  • How to detect the HTML extension window close in In-design? Does the In-design throws any event on opening/closing of extensions?

    How to detect the HTML extension window close in In-design? Does the In-design throws any event on opening/closing of extensions?
    I have a HTML extension running in In-design CC 2014 version.
    I want to perform some required set of actions before my extension window is closed(by clicking on the cross button on top right corner).
    Does In-design throws any event for it? Or can we capture it using C++ plugin in some way?

    Naah.......haven't got any event for that yet.
    Although, since HTML extensions are using chromium browser,  as a workaround, u can attach listener to HTML onClose event, but it won't solve any purpose if you
    are looking to logout session or do some business login in your code.

  • How to automate the Acrobat Reader plugin in Internet Explorer

    Hi,
    I have been trying to figure out how to automate the Acrobat Reader plugin in Internet Explorer. My goal is to find a way to allow users of our web application to print PDFs to the default printer without having to go through the plugin's GUI. Our application includes a browser helper component, and I had hoped it would be possible to use the IWebBrowser2 interface's get_Document() method to get at some sort of interface to the plugin (as is possible for, say, a Word document hosted in Internet Explorer) and then use this to print the document. However, this does not work: get_Document(), when called on an IWebBrowser2 instance with a PDF loaded, returns E_NOINTERFACE. I also tried calling the IWebBrowser2 interface's ExecWB() method with OLECMDID_PRINT, OLECMDEXECOPT_DONTPROMPTUSER, and PRINT_DONTBOTHERUSER, and printed a blank page rather than the PDF.
    Is it possible to do what I am attempting? Like I said, my core goal is to print a PDF from within Internet Explorer without requiring user interaction. I'd appreciate any suggestions as to how I might accomplish this -- it doesn't _have_ to be by automating the plugin (maybe that is a the wrong approach... though it sure would be nice if the plugin provided access to its object model via IWebBrowser2->get_Document()).
    Thanks in Advance,

    IF that were entirely true, then the whole purpose of this thread is moot (automating printing server side). It is possible to load the file via URLs using the following html code:
    "<"body>
    "<"OBJECT id="pdf"
    type="application/pdf"
    width=800
    height=600 >
    "<"param name="src" value="http://localhost/pdfs/vorder_nc.pdf"/>
    "<"/OBJECT>
    "<"script language="JavaScript">
    function waitLoad()
    setTimeout("printFile()",2000);
    function printFile()
    var objPdf = document.getElementById('pdf');
    objPdf.PrintAllFit(1);
    "<"/script>
    "<"/body>
    So, if I used php or some other scripting language on the server to fill in the name of the pdf, I can load it via a URL, wait a couple of seconds for it to load, and then print it without user interaction. I wish that the LoadFile method would load a URL so that when it returns, I know it is loaded and I don't have to put faith in a timer that may not be enough for a large file.
    This is the situation I'm in. This way works but I don't like the timer. I'd rather have the plugin let me know when it's loaded. Is there another method that can help me do what I want?
    Thank again.

    Most YouTube content requires the Flash plugin which is unrelated to either iPhone or IMovie.
    Uninstall your current copy of Flash then reinstall new >  Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
    Relaunch your browser. Empty the browser cache. If you use Safari, go to the Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
    Try a video.

  • How to detect the path of Temp directory

    I am writing a class library which allows users to manipulate a database in the web server java applications/applets. In my logic the Application/Applet communicate with a CGI script/Servlet in the server and that do all the database handling. My objective is to make the Client independant from the Database Drivers, and to some restrictions and possible security threats that can arrice when accessing the database directly.
    99% of the work is done and now I am doing the fine tuning.
    My Problem:
    When the user downloading a blob object from the server database. each time the program read the blob it will get a new copy from the server. This is not good if the blob is large (few 100 megs) . So I am going to implement a cache system. but the problem is If I am caching in the memory it will not support large objects (Memory is a limited factor). So the preferance is use the Temperary files but I do not know how to detect the path to temperary folder.
    And my 2nd questions is are the applets allowed to write and read in temperary folder.

    The Java default temporary file path can be determined with
    System.getProperty("java.io.tmpdir")This is typically the same value as the os environment variable

  • How to detect the final loop iteration of a step in a PostStep Engine Callback?

    I see the need to use a PostStep Engine Callback and look at the Step.Result container of the caller.
    My issue: If the caller is configured to loop, the PostStep Engine CB executes with each iteration and I do not see how to detect the final iteration (which is the only iteration I am interested in).
    Ideas are welcome. Thanks in advance,
    Guenter

    Guenter,
    well, the way i discripted IS the generic way. The reason for this is the following:
    You can compare TestStand very well with procedural programming languages. So you have variables with different lifetimes and scope. RunState is one variable, which is available in every scope, but it may have different content.
    So you leaving the execution of your clientsequence in order to call the callback, you leave the scope of the RunState from your clientsequence. But only there the information is stored on how many iterations are left. It does not make sense to pass this anywhere, since the execution of your clientsequence has to decide if to loop further or not.
    But, please note that there are different scopes for the "disable result recording" as well. You have found the most global one, the station option. But you can as well set this in the sequence settings (Edit >> Sequence Properties >> Disable Result Recording for All Steps) and at step-level (Run Options >> Record Result {uncheck it}).
    Looping on a single step using the step settings, you can additionally choose not to record results for each iteration. This will lead to only a single entry in the ResultList, the overall result of the looped step (if resultcollection is enabled of course!).
    hope this helps,
    Norbert

    Does any body knows how to detect the resolution of an inserted image in word?

    I'm not sure I understand your reply but when you insert images into Word that are larger than will fit on the page, they are automatically compressed. If you right click and select Size and Position you can restore it to 100% but you will not see all the image.
