How to open a pdf from a button in Flash

Good Afternoon All,
I am working in CS4.
AS 3.
I am putting together a self-contained Flash presentation. The presentation and all linked images/files will be contained on a flash stick.
I need to know how to link to a pdf that will be on the flash stick and have it open directly in reader when clicked. I've tried the following AS:
on (release) {
  getURL("myDoc.pdf", "_blank")
and it does work, but opens the pdf in a browser window version of reader as opposed to just reader...if that makes sense.
Any and all help is appreciated.
THanks.
Geno.

  • How to open a PDF from AS

    Hello again!!!
    I would like to know how can a Client open a PDF document which is in the AS.
    The point is that i know how to pass this document from Client to AS, but it needs to be open from Server using an aplication in Forms. Yes, i use the following line:
    WEBUTIL_HOST.NONBLOCKING('CMD /C ACRORD32 '||trim(:block.rute));
    and i have the ACRORD32.EXE in the Windows Path, so it should work. However, Acrobat launches a pop-up that says something like 'file not found', and the rute is correct and the file exists.
    Any suggestions?

  • How to open local PDF from Firefox?

    I have Acrobat XI Pro. I have local web pages with PDF files on my hard drive. I use Firefox. How can I get Firefox to open the files in Acrobat? Now when I click on the files Firefox downloads them. I don't need that! I already have them on my hard drive. It used to open them. I reinstalled my Windows 7-64 and it stopped doing so.
    I have searched the web. A Firefox help page asks if you can open the file with File -> Open File. I tried. It also downloads the file. But that page doesn't say what to do if Firefox doesn't open it.
    I have gone to Firefox's Applications page. Three of the four Acrobat entries list Save File. When I use the combo boxes to change to Acrobat, they don't change.
    I can't believe something so basic as what I am asking is so hard to do.

    I am having an issue with my adobe acrobat 9 pro. Every time I try to open a pdf from someone it opens it up with my free adobe reader rather than the Acrobat 9 pro so then I don't have all of the functions of 9 pro. How do I get it to open with 9 pro instead of the free reader?

    It may depend on the plugin that is loaded into your browser. However, right click on a PDF and select the Open With option and go to the default button to select Acrobat as the default. That might do it.

  • Open a PDF via a button/script in a projector

    I am going to burn a projector to a CD with a folder
    containing some pdf files. I would like to ask how to open a pdf
    file(if it's even possible) from a button in director. I don't need
    it to open inside the projector, just click on the button then it
    will open an Acrobat Reader.
    I hope you get the idea of what I'm trying to do.
    Thanks

    The above posts have given the best way to open a PDF. It
    uses the Buddy API Xtra to open a file with the
    program to which its associated. Buddy API Xtra can be used
    free if you use limited functions. So, you can use
    the baOpenFile without needing to buy the full version of the
    Xtra. The Xtra is available from:

    Other ways to use PDFs with Director are described here:

  • How can I convert Pdf from RGB to CMYK, keeping font color 100% K while working in Illustrator?

    How can I convert Pdf from RGB to CMYK, keeping font color 100% K while working in Illustrator?
    When I try to open the document in Illustrator and I convert to CMYK the black font converts to rich black, but to set up for Offset printintg I need the text to be only in Black (100%K).
    The original source of the document is a Microsoft Word file, I have converted the Word file to Pdf in order to setup for OFfset Printing.
    Thanks

    I have tried that way, but the downside is that the fonts are set in gray not in a 100%K, also I have to deal with other fonts that are composites and meant to stay Full Color. I could select text by text and convert to gray but, its a 64 page document and I wouldn't want to make a expensive mistake.

    You will havwe to sign up for some service that supports rights
    management, use protected PDFs via LiveCyle/ Acrobat Connect or learn how
    to create your own ePub stuff using Digital Publishing Suite. In any case,
    it will probably cost you money upfront before you make any revenue.

    You can use the following code:
    byte[] content = getRequestBufferAsBytes(request);
    ...then do whatever you want
    public static byte[] getRequestBufferAsBytes(HttpServletRequest request) throws IOException, ServletException
    // get the RequestBuffer
    ServletInputStream oInput = request.getInputStream();
    long nContentLength = request.getContentLength();
    String contentType = request.getContentType();
    if (nContentLength <= 0)
    return null;
    byte[] cContent = new byte[(int)nContentLength];
    // read the content in 512 bytes chunks
    // a single read does not get all the characters
    int nRead = 0;
    int nToRead = (int)nContentLength;
    int nBlkSize = 512;
    byte[] cTemp = new byte[512];
    do {
    int n = 0;
    int i = 0;
    if (nToRead - nRead < 512)
    nBlkSize = nToRead - nRead;
    n = oInput.read( cTemp,0,nBlkSize);
    for (i = 0; i < n; i++)
    cContent[i+nRead] = cTemp[i];
    nRead += i;
    } while (nRead < nToRead);
    //cContent[nRead] = (byte)'\0';
    Long nBytesRead = new Long( nRead );
    return cContent;

  • How do i protect pdf from being forwarded by email?

    how do i protect pdf from being forwarded by email?@

    There's nothing at all you can do to stop a PDF from being copied, emailed, put in a USB stick, uploaded to DropBox, or shared in any other way. DRM ($$$$) can make it so that unauthorized copies cannot be opened.
