QTP Automation with Acrobat SDK

Hi,
I would like to verify the PDF content using HP Automation tool - QTP by opening the PDF and extracting the Text content from PDF.
I am trying the OLE style and using a series of commands, as described in many postings. The first one is:
CreateObject("AcroExch.App")
It throws error, saying "Cannot create ActiveX component"
From the Forums I found that it will not work with Adobe Reader and will work with Full Adobe Product with Adobe SDK.
Now I would like to know which version of Acrobat will have Acrobat SDK.
My Client already procured the below Acrobat Products.
VLA ACROBAT 10 win universal English
VLA ACROBAT 10 WIN Universal English STD to STD Upgrade ST-ST
VLA ACROBAT Pro 10 win universal English
VLA ACROBAT Pro 10 WIN Universal English STD to STD Upgrade ST-ST
Pls let me know which product( which has Adobe SDK as well) I should choose to proceed with QTP Automation.
Any Advise/Help greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Anand Muthunayagam.

How to start with Acrobat SDK on Xcode?

Hello,
I'm a newer with acrobat sdk, does anyone know how to start and give me some commend for good books.
Does acrobat SDK 9 support Snow Leopard and Xcode 3.2?

OK, I installed the savage driver package and ran (as root)
X -configure
I took the resulting xorg,conf.new to /etc/X11 as xorg.conf.
When I startx as a user, the laptop screen stays black.
When I run
xdpyinfo
I get
unable to open display ""
When I enable "startkde" in ~/.xinitcr, the KDED configuration dialog comes up, but in a poor resolution.
In a way, X seems to work basically, but I suppose the resolution is at 640*480.
At /var/log/xorg.0.log I can't find any errors (EE), just 3D warnings, which shouldn't bother.
BUT..... it seems the X is taking mode 111 (640*480), but my 14" laptop would like 117 (1024*768).
Can you tell me, where and how I can switch the resolution in X ? I read about the "Displaysize" in the Monitor Section, but I couldn't figure that out. The funny thing is, I have a second laptop running, with 1024*768 (vesa driver), and there is no DisplaySize in its Monitor section, but this machine is running at the correct resolution. Strange.

A simple google can get:
Common problems such as Windows Error Code 0x80040154 can be resolved with without too much difficulty. In this article we will go through solving the problem and how to prevent it in the future.
What happens
If you are registering an ATL server, you may see this error code. In the case of DLLs, regsvr32.exe will generate this error. In the case of EXEs, calling _Module::RegisterServer (CComModule::RegisterServer) in _tWinMain() will generate this error.

Acrobat SDK: How to get events and write event handlers in c#

I am trying out to get events from a pdf doc and handle it in my c# code with the samples that come with Acrobat-SDK.
I am yet to understand how I can do it. I am yet to discover the class that provides me the events. All the classes currently expose methods only. It might be that I am missing something for sure.
Can somebody help?
My use case is:
the user will open a pdf doc and my application (or my app can trigger opening the pdf doc)
when the user selects some text from the pdf doc, my app should get the event
My event can handle the selection and get the selected text.
Put a bookmark on the selection in the pdf doc (with additional attributes)
the pdf doc retains such bookmarks when the pdf is saved.
bookmarks in the pdf should be available for edit.
A different app/code should be able to parse and retrieve these bookmarks along with the additional attributes of the bookmark.
I hope, I have not asked too much.

There are no “event handlers” for C# in the Acrobat SDK. You will have to “poll” for things such as selected text.
Also, I don’t know what sort of “additional attributes” you are thinking about, but that may or may not be possible from C#.

How do I work in Acrobat SDK?

Hello,
I have never worked with Acrobat SDK before. I need to develop a plugin for Acrobat Reader 9. Can someone please point me in the right direction and tell me what to do?
After I have installed the SDK I want to develop a custom search plugin that will limit the search to only selected bookmarks in a PDF document. Are there any examples of this available?
Thanks so much!
Linda

Welcome, Linda:
I wish somebody would have given me this advice when I started dealing with the Acrobat SDK, a decade ago.
(1) The SDK contains a MSVS Solution called "All". You will find plenty of examples there.
(2) One of the projects is specially important: SnippetRunner. It contains a wealth of functions. Back in my day it was weird and I avoided it, but now it is based on Adobe Air, and is much simpler to install. After you have Air installed, just double click on the file CommonInterfaceAIR.air. With that interface you will be handling Acrobat with a soft of remote control, and testing all kinds of functions.
(3) I had no idea that DLLs are so easy to debug. Boy, is my face red!! You probably know how to do it. (Plugins are just a DLL with a different extension)
(4) Keep these links handy (actually, update them to your version):

Set PDF Document Properties Initial View by Acrobat SDK with C#

Hi,
Here am trying to set the PDF document initial view by the Acrobat SDK with C#.
Here I am show my screen shot which properties I want to set.
For this process I am referred Acrobat SDK and also following Adobe forums they also asked similar question.
http://forums.adobe.com/message/3866361

From the above code {doc.SetPageMode(3);} is working for set the page mode.
But I am having problem in following code {doc.SetOpenInfo(1,1,"Fit Width");}
Because it won’t work I do’t known, and there is no clear samples in the SDK reference document.
So please give advice and clear sample code/syntax to meet above needs which are marked in red box.

You need to have valid premium license for Adobe. Only then it would work.

How to use Acrobat SDK with C# and how much is it?

I just want to know these info because I'm new here and I can't seem to find any answers to these here in the forums and on the Documentation.

Hi,
The Acrobat SDK is free and can be downloaded from http://www.adobe.com\devnet\acrobat. Please note to use the SDK you require Acrobat/Reader to be installed.
As for using it with c#, there are a number of sample files in the SDK that can be used to learn. There is also documentation online and in the SDK.
Hope thie helps

How to Use Acrobat SDK for Automation Using VB or Perl

Hi Forum,
I am a new bie, just 2 days old to acrobat and javascript, and I am basically a perl developer
I am using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro,
I downloaded Acrobat SDK, but i don't know what else to do further, how to use??
I tried to start learning SDK, but no proper documents i found to learn and start using SDK,
Please suggest some guide or documentation for start learning Acrobat SDK (Step by Step guide)
Here with I have created a small script to merge two pdf
// Create a new PDF document:
var newDoc = app.newDoc();
// Insert doc1.pdf:
newDoc.insertPages({
nPage : -1,
cPath : "/d/sathish/1.pdf",
// Insert doc2.pdf:
newDoc.insertPages({
nPage : newDoc.numPages-1,
cPath : "/d/sathish/2.pdf",
// Save the new document:
newDoc.saveAs("/d/sathish/myNewDoc.pdf");
My code is working fine and merging properly,
Is there any way to execute this script through commandline or using some other scripting languages like perl or through VB
My objective is to automate the merging process without any manual intervention, I don't want to open acrobat manually to execute this javacript, i want to automate that process too,
Please suggest me which will be very helpful to me,
Thanks in advance
Thanks & Regards
Sathish V.

It is a big SDK and to learn its features requires a lot of reading. But to start with I guess I should start with "Introduction to SDK".
Since you want to control Acrobat from another application you should consider this under "Interapplication communication". You will be using OLE/COM.

Does Acrobat XI have a compatibility problem with Acrobat 8 SDK?

I have an Acrobat plugin using the Acrobat 8 sdk. Il works well with Acrobat8, 9, and X.
It does not load with acrobat XI. There is a NSException that is reaised.
What in Acrobat XI can cause this behavior?
Thanks!

Changes are that your plugin is either explicitly linking with the ADM technology that we have been telling developers since Acrobat 8 that it was going away. Guess what – it's gone!
So you will need to recompile your plugin, removing all references to ADM and its HFT.

Using the Acrobat SDK with READER

I have successfully coded (C#) against Acrobat Pro. in the past. Since ACROBAT.DLL is not provided with Acrobat Reader, how can you code against it? The sample code provided with the SDK shows it's use with ACROBAT.DLL and states that limited functionality is available for Reader, but how can that be if ACROBAT.dll is not provided with Reader? Am I missing a concept here? Is there another DLL and TLB to use for Reader? I'm lost!
Thanks

Ask your questions in the forum for Acrobat SDK.

Compare 2 PDFs programmatically with Acrobat XI SDK

Is there a way to compare 2 PDFs programmatically with Acrobat XI SDK? I have read elsewhere in these forums that it was possible in Acrobat 8 using C/C++ methods. If it is not possible with Acrobat XI, can we still use those C/C++ APIs from Acrobat 8 although the Desktop version running is Acrobat XI?
Is an API feature for Compare PDFs in Acrobat XI in the feature list/roadmap?
Any technical details and links to information/references is greatly appreciated.
Thanks very much for your response, really appreciate your help.

So using methods like DigSigComparePages(from the link below) not an option anymore with the current version of Acrobat SDK?

Using the SDK in a C# program with Acrobat Standard (License question)

Hi,
we have purchased Adobe Acrobat Standard and installed it on a Computer to edit pdf documents.
Basically, we delete some pages at the end of document as they contain superfluos information.
As there is a naming convention in these files that tells us how many pages have to be deleted, we want to use the Acrobat SDK to delete the pages automatically.
Is that ok or would we need to purchase a special license for the Acrobat SDK?
Cheers,
Helmut

As long as the computer is only performing the task for a single individual (since you only have a single copy) - that’s fine. It cannot, however, perform this operation for multiple people.

Create pdf using Adobe acrobat sdk

Hello,
I'm new to this concept of using adobe sdk to convert a html into pdf.I would like to know few details regarding this..
I went thorugh the documentation but I did not get any help about the vector image support in the pdf and I aslo want to know abot the dpi support in the pdf.
I also want to know wether I can create a pdf form a Html page.
thanks for the help.

>I want this to be on the server.
Ok, we can start there - or stop. The Acrobat SDK is for automating
Acrobat. Acrobat must not be installed on a server. So you cannot use
Acrobat.
Adobe have a PDF Library, which can be licensed for server use. But it
does not have any easy HTML to PDF converter.
You might look into LiveCycle PDF Generator, a different application
with a Java API and more, for server use.
>The dpi what I was talking about was..in the pdf i want a logo to appear that would around 200-300 dpi.That logo is a vector image.
This seems a contradiction. PDF files can store text, vector images
and bitmaps/images. If you store a vector image, it remains vector and
there is no dpi to worry about.
HOWEVER if you can only convert HTML
1. HTML does not support any vector formats
2. HTML often forces images to 72 dpi.
HTML is not suitable for print quality.
