Plug-in UI - Acrobat SDK9

Hello,
I have created simple plug-in to get image files from a folder to convert to PDF through programatically and I wanted to create GUI to get input parameters from user. Please anyone help me to use(Group Box, Combo box, Text Box, OK and Cancel button) GUI elements in SDK?
SDK: Acrobat SDK9 with VS 2005
Thanks,
Selva

I would just use native OS/platform APIs - MFC, ATL, Cocoa, etc.

Acrobat 10 and plug-ins for Acrobat 9 incompatibility?

Hi,
Today I've installed trial version of Acrobat 10 to check if my plug-in for Acrobat 9 could run for it as well. But after Acrobat 10 launch I've got a window:
Acrobat.exe - Unable to Locate Component
This application has failed to start because MSVCP80.dll was not found.
Quick check over plug-ins shipped now inside Acrobat 10 showed me that they are using now MSVCP90.DLLL library instread of MSVCP80.dll used for Acrobat 9.
Does it mean that we need to recompile our source code with higher version of MS Visual Studio? If so - what version should we use?
Does it also mean that our plug-ins prepared for Acrobat 9 are incompatible with Acrobat 10 or there is some way they could still run without recompilation?
Any comments on this would be highly appreciated.

I always prefer to use shared libraries, i.e. DLLs, in their supposed shared way and not statically embedded into my executable if I know that some environment is pretty stable and customer is aware of various possible DLLs dependencies. If Acrobat could do some job for me - then I'm happy with that without allocation of additional memory/resources needed in case of static linking.
So, you don't answer my question. What C++ compiler's version should be used to put MSVCP90.DLL reference now instead of previously used MSVCP80.DLL?

Adobe CC just installed Acrobat DC. Where are my plug-ins from Acrobat 11? I use PitStop Professional but it is not in the tools panel. Do I need to reinstall?

Adobe CC just installed Acrobat DC. PitStop Professional plug-in is not installed in Acrobat DC tools panel. The plug-in is the only thing that exists in my Acrobat 11 folder. Do I need to reinstall? How can I use existing plug-ins from Acrobat 11 in Acrobat DC?

Hello Randall,
Please refer to this Help document with steps to resolve the plugin compatibility issue: Acrobat DC removed Acrobat XI and plugin compatibility | Mac, Windows

How todo for install Plug-In in acrobat XI?

I Should installa the Kodak Plug-In in Acrobat XI Pro, but i can do It. In acrobat X I move the Plug-In in the folder and then I goes in Acrobat ? -> Plug-In. Acrobat XI haven’t the command Plug-In in menu ?
Somebody can help ma?

Contact the maker of the plug-in. Never assume a plug-in will be compatible with new versions of Acrobat, you might need a new version.

Is there a Safari extension (or plug-in) for Acrobat Pro?

Is there a Safari extension (or plug-in) for Acrobat Pro? I use to have one, then when I updated to the new Yosemite operating system, it disappeared.

For Acrobat Pro? I don't really understand. You don't typically *edit* PDFs in a browser.
Note that Acrobat Reader is totally unnecessary on OS X. I'd recommend avoiding it. If you are creating PDFs, or doing advanced features that make it worth spending hundreds of dollars, then Acrobat Pro may make sense, but otherwise, just use Preview.

Cost for Enabling Plug-in for Acrobat Reader

Hi,
I read the developer note and noticed if I want to enable my plug-in for Acrobat Reader I need "Visit the Adobe web site and fill out an Adobe Reader Integration Key License Agreement."
I heard the cost is 100 US dollars per license. I am a bit confuse with it. The cost is $100 for each plug-in no matter how many copies I distributed in company. Or $100 for each computer I want to install my plug-in?

Hello,
my question is also related to the integration of our plugin into Acrobat Reader.
I fulfilled the application form for the Reader Integration Key License Agreement and I sent an email to [email protected] but I received an error that is the email account doesn't exist.
I didn't manage to find a valid account where I can send the form.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards.

Outlook 2007 Plug-in for Acrobat Connect

I am attempting to install the Outlook 2007 Plug-in for
Acrobat Connect. After the plugin is installed and Outlook is
started I am prompted for a meeting url, username and password. I
enter a valid meeting url, username and password then told that
"The meeting room you specified is incorrect. Please enter a
different meeting room." I have entered a number of valid meeting
room addresses with no luck.
Any suggestions would be appreciated...
Bruce

You may be having some network issues, if you are behind
firewalls or proxy servers. There is no documentation on these
issues, so here is the only advice I have ever heard:
"If they have Windows Server 2003 R2 they have an option for
a print server and they could push it as a printer to any group
policy they wanted"
Otherwise, feel free read the manual:

Converting Acrobat 7 SDK -built plug-in to Acrobat 9

We have a plug-in developed inhouse with Acrobat 7 SDK. We are looking for someone with SDK programming experience to help us port it for Acrobat 9. We tried ourselves using Xcode compiler, but it seems that the plug-in is not showing up either as a Menu item nor as a tool icon.
I understand that it may be a very simple problem, which somehow we miss resolving, but since our original programmer is no longer with us, we need some help in porting the tool to Acrobat 9 Pro.
If interested, or have a suggestion, please call me at 216-252 7300 ext. 2684.

NoSmoking,
Thanks for the reply. Since I am not the programmer you may need to just bear with me a bit, if you can.
First, the app is running on OSX (10.3.9 - 10.5.11) - hence the use of XCode as compiler. I checked About Adobe Plug-ins list in 9 Pro which shows loaded plug-ins and our UpdatePage4Layer.acroplugin is not there. Unless there is another way to look at the loaded plug-in list, I cannot find it.
Second, could you explain the check using PluginInit method? There is a section in the project's code which covers PluginInit, but I am not sure how I can use it:
/* PluginInit
** The main initialization routine.
** Return true to continue loading plug-in.
** Return false to cause plug-in loading to stop.
ACCB1 ASBool ACCB2 PluginInit(void)
return MyPluginSetmenu();
I also searched for AVMenuItemNew in the project's code and here is what I found:
// Create our menuitem
menuItem = AVMenuItemNew (MyMenuItemTitle, MyMenuItemName, NULL, true, NO_SHORTCUT, 0, NULL, gExtensionID);
AVMenuItemSetExecuteProc (menuItem, ASCallbackCreateProto(AVExecuteProc, MyPluginCommand), NULL);
AVMenuItemSetComputeEnabledProc (menuItem,
ASCallbackCreateProto(AVComputeEnabledProc, MyPluginIsEnabled), (void *)pdPermEdit);
// get advanced menu
advancedMenu = AVMenubarAcquireMenuByName (menubar, "Advanced");
endToolsGroup1MenuItem = AVMenubarAcquireMenuItemByName(menubar, "endToolsGroup1");
ASInt32 sepIndex = AVMenuGetMenuItemIndex(advancedMenu, endToolsGroup1MenuItem);
// add new menuitem under AcrobatSDK Sub Menu
if(bUnderAcrobatSDKSubMenu) {
// Acquire the common "AcrobatSDK" sub menu.
commonMenu = AVMenubarAcquireMenuByName (menubar, "AMGR:AG_Plugins");
// if "AcrobatSDK" sub menu is not existing, create one under Advanced menu.
if (!commonMenu) {
commonMenu = AVMenuNew ("AG Plugins", "AMGR:AG_Plugins", gExtensionID);
commonMenuItem = AVMenuItemNew ("AG Plugins", "AMGR:AG_Plugins", commonMenu,
false, NO_SHORTCUT, 0, NULL, gExtensionID);
bCreatedCommonMenu = true;
AVMenuAddMenuItem(advancedMenu, commonMenuItem, sepIndex);
// add new menu item to Acrobat SDK sub menu
AVMenuAddMenuItem (commonMenu, menuItem, APPEND_MENUITEM);
// or directly add new menu item under Advanced menu
else {
endToolsGroup1MenuItem = AVMenubarAcquireMenuItemByName(menubar, "endToolsGroup1");
ASInt32 sepIndex = AVMenuGetMenuItemIndex(advancedMenu, endToolsGroup1MenuItem);
AVMenuAddMenuItem(advancedMenu, menuItem, APPEND_MENUITEM);
AVMenuRelease(advancedMenu);
AVMenuItemRelease(endToolsGroup1MenuItem);
AVMenuRelease (commonMenu);
HANDLER
if(endToolsGroup1MenuItem)
AVMenuItemRelease(endToolsGroup1MenuItem);
if (advancedMenu)
AVMenuRelease (advancedMenu);
if (commonMenu)
AVMenuRelease (commonMenu);
return false;
END_HANDLER
Then I found also instructions to get the tool bar button (which BTW did not work in Acrobat 8):
//add button to toolbar
DURING
// Create the main toolbutton. We position it just before the end of the
// tools group of buttons.
toolsSeparator = AVToolBarGetButtonByName(toolBar, ASAtomFromString("endSelectToolsGroup"));
toolButton = AVToolButtonNew (ASAtomFromString("AMGR:UpdatePG4Layer"),GetToolButtonIcon("UpdatePG4Icon","png"), true, false);
// You must set the internal/external nature of the toolbutton
// before adding it to the toolbar. Buttons are internal by default.
// AVToolButtonSetExternal (toolButton, TOOLBUTTON_EXTERNAL);
AVToolBarAddButton (toolBar, toolButton, true, toolsSeparator);
AVToolButtonSetExecuteProc (toolButton,
ASCallbackCreateProto(AVExecuteProc, MyPluginCommand), NULL);
AVToolButtonSetComputeEnabledProc (toolButton,
ASCallbackCreateProto(AVComputeEnabledProc, MyPluginIsEnabled), (void *)pdPermEdit);
AVToolButtonSetHelpText (toolButton, "AG Plugins:UpdatePG4Layer");
HANDLER
return false;
END_HANDLER
return true;
However I do not know where I can find AVMenuItemNew&#12289, or is that expression a combination of separate items?
Thanks again for your help,
A.

Can't get plug-in for Acrobat to work in Safari (boy I've tried!)

I've spent literally hours in the discussion group looking for an answer to this and can't find one that works, so I finally decided to post a new topic.
I just moved from a Powerbook G4 to a MBP. On the G4, when I brought up a PDF file from a web page, it brought it up in Safari with the Acrobat tools around it (print, search, etc.). I liked that. On the MBP, it just brings it up in Safari with no tools around it - kinda like Preview. I know I can ctrl-click and get a limited menu, but I really want what I think is the plug-in.
I've tried reinstalling Acrobat, the plug-in, etc. Also messed with the internet options in the Acrobat preferences (i.e. "Display PDF in Browser Using", etc.) in every type of combo you can imagine. I've messed with the MIME settings for QuickTime for a pdf file image in the QuickTime System Preferences. I've turned "Enable Plug-Ins" in the Safari Preferences on and off in different combos with everything else.
Nothing I do makes a difference. No matter what these settings are, it still brings up the PDF in Safari with no tools or options around it. I thought I should at least get things to react differently (not necessarily the way I want) with all these settings changed in different ways, but nothing changed any behavior.
This makes no sense to me. Maybe it does to you? Is the Intel platform making a difference? Thanks for taking the time.

Ed,
I use The Schubert|it PDF Browser Plugin, which is free for non-commercial use.
If you are interested in experimenting with your MacBook Pro, you may want to give it a try. Since it is a plugin you can install/remove with ease.
First Quit Safari, and then remove the AdobePDFViewer.plugin from either the ~Library/Internet Plug-Ins Folder, or the Macintosh HD/Library/Internet Plug-Ins Folder@, and reserve for replacement if you deem necessary. Then install the PDF Browser Plugin and fire up Safari to give it a try.
@The placement of the AdobePDFViewer.plugin in the wrong plugin folder may explain why it is not working for you. Mine is in the Macintosh HD/Library/Internet Plug-Ins Folder

How do I add third party plug-in to Acrobat Pro XI and add things to the main menu bar.

Running Acrobat Pro XI, (CC suite) on MacPro OSX 10.8
Main Menu Bar only shows 'Acrobat File Edit View Window Help'.
No Third Party Plug-ins are shown under 'Acrobat' on the Menu Bar
Acrobat Pro 9 (also installed) shows the Third Party Plug-ins and a lot of other options on the Menu Bar
How do I get Pro XI to look like Pro 9

You'll have to install PitStop again and point it at the new Acrobat when it asks you, or you can open the Acrobat 9 package and copy PitStop from the plugins folder into the same folder in Acrobat XI.
You didn't mention which version of PitStop you have so you'll need to check the system requirements to make sure you are compatible.
http://www.enfocus.com/en/support/knowledge-base/pitstop-pro-system-requirements?q=system+ requirements
Also be aware of the interface change between Acrobat 9 and XI, you no longer have all the tool bars available on the top, you now have tools in a column on the right.
But you can drag tool icons up to the top and make sets as well.
You can get information on the differences within PitStop here.

Update browser plug-in for Acrobat

Firefox 12 says my Adobe Acrobat 9.5.1.283 Plug-in needs updating, but when I click on the "Update" button it takes me to Adobe's download page for Reader X. I've read that installing Acrobat and Reader on the same machine is not recommended. When I check for updates in Acrobat it says no updates are available. How do I resolve the out-of-date Plug-in? I'm using WIN XP Pro SP3.

Firefox considers the Acrobat / Reader X plug-ins to be the latest available, since they are of the order 10.x.x.x as compared to those of 9.5.1 i.e 9.5.1.xxx.
You can safely ignore these warnings since you are at the latest version of Adobe Acrobat available.
OR you could download Reader X and make it the default PDF viewing application, which would resolve this issue for you.

New Plug-In for Acrobat: 3D Bill-of-Materials

Hello everyone!
We at vpr-solutions are thinking of developing an Adobe Acrobat Plug-In which allows users to create 3D-PDF Bill-Of-Materials with just a few mouse clicks.
The outcome would be an interactive 3D-PDF, similar to this:
http://vpr-solutions.de/images/stories/ om_sec.pdf
Such BOMs could be created quickly and would require no scripting at all. All that the user will have to do is:
1) Create a Layout: 3D-Annotation and text edit fields (for part meta-data display)
2) Link 3D and edit fields using the plug-in
Now the user will be able to select parts in 3D and fill in the edit fields. Whenever a part is selected in 3D, the specific part info will be displayed. All meta information will be gathered and saved inside the PDF. Additional functionality would be export and import of part meta-info als XML spreadsheets (MS Excel, OpenOffice).
Please tell me what you think. I am thankfull for every single line.
Best Regards,
Helmut

Hello,
Function creation of 3D-PDF Bill-Of-Materials is already available within APEX V9.
Using A3D Reviewer you can:
1/import CAD files
2/create a Bill-Of-Materials
(go to Tools/Bill of Material)
Several options are available to the BOM creation option
If you need more information feel free to contact me...
3/Export to PDF using a provided template
ie:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\plug_ins3d\prc\ENU\a3drtemplate_03.pdf
4/Open the PDf file within Acrobat 3D activate 3D
As you could see the BOM is available into the 3DPDF document
I Hope this can be helpful for you
For further more information please feel to contact us
Best regards
