Run javascript in adobe 11 reader

how do I run a javascript in adobe reader 11

Of course you can. You can place it in the JavaScripts folder of Reader and it will be launched when the application starts.
You can also run it through the JS Console (but getting to it is tricky in Reader).

How to fix "NotAllowedError" with the mailForm method (javascript) in adobe reader 9.3?

Hi! I want to know if it exist a way to use the mailForm method (this is javascript) in adobe reader 9.3?
Or, are there any equivalent method? I want to send by email a FDF with my PDF.
When I run my javascript, I got the following error: "NotAllowedError: Security settings prevent access to this property or method.
Doc.mailForm:55:Field FI_ENVOYER:Mouse Up ".
(Here, FI_ENVOYER is the name of my button).
Tanks for the help!

My document have this rights:
Protection method:                              None
May be open in:                                  Every version of Acrobat

Affixing signature:                              Allowed
Creating pages models:                     Unauthorized
Is "Creating pages models" or "Assemble the document" can prevent the use of the mailForm method?
I know that the mailForm requires privileges, but how can I allow these two rights who are unhauthorized?
Is there something else I can do to be able to use the method "mailForm" without having the "NotAllowedError"?

Start program from javascript in adobe reader

Hi,
I'm trying to develop a javascript that add a button.
When the user click on the button, the javascriopt should run an executable, wait for the end of the process, then open a text file and save the pdf as the content of this text file.
I've found how to open the text file in the api reference but i can not run the exe.
Has anybody already done before?
thx a lot
Benjamin

So, i have to develop them on a computer with the pro version to correctly compile the plugin?
For testing I have copied an api file (already compiled) from the sdk folder to the plugin folder, i have disabled the certified mode but I cannot see this one into the list (see pic)
What i'm trying to do is simple:
Ad a save button, when the user click on this button, the plugin will have to run a program that write a path into a text file. After closing the program, the plugin will read the path and then save the opened pdf at this place.
I think that the acrobat pro is a little bit "overkilled" for tht stuff, don't you?
Javascript can do that:
var shell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.shell");
shell.run("explorer.exe");
Why the adobe reader is not able to do that?

JavaScript in Adobe Reader app for Android

How long to get the Adobe Reader app for Android will support JavaScript code? In addition to the password, I need to put the expiration day on my PDFs to close the backdoor.
Thanks

Hi,
Many thanks for getting back to me. A reset all fields would certainly
save a great deal of time on forms that are used over and over!
Something else that I've noticed is the fact that when you flick through
the pages of .pdf documents, there are sometimes white blank pages. You
need to scroll back and forth to get them all to load and sometimes even
after they have loaded, when you scroll back and forth again other pages
are blank.
I am using the latest Samsung Note Pro tablet with 2 x quad core
processors so I can't blame outdated technology.
Do you have any ideas as to how to solve this problem?
Many thanks again for your help.
Regards
Paul

Installer for Adobe Reader 11 runs but nothing installs

Windows XP SP3 and IE8, Installer completes after downloading it, everything looks ok but nothing occurs after intsaller finishes, I see no Adobe Reader Intsalled on the progam list, nor are any existing PDF files recognized (asks for program with which to open them.)

Where did you download the app from?
http://get.adobe.com/reader/
First you download an app to download the installer of Reader, which then must be run to download the Reader Installer, which you need to run to install Reader. Hey, you cannot make this stuff up.
If you download from:
http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
You can the Reader installer, which you can run to install Adobe Reader.

How to change annotation's appearance when printing the annotation under Adobe Reader?

I'm developping a plugin under SDK 7.0 for Adobe Reader . I have two problems.
1)I will change annotation's appearance when printing the annotation. How to do under Adobe Reader?
Uunder Adobe Arobat,I use PDRegisterAnnotHandler to register GetPrintAppearance,but PDRegisterAnnotHandler does not work under Adobe Reader.
2)Under Adobe Reader ,app.execMenuItem doesnt work.How to execute menuItem using JavaScript under Adobe Reader?
Please Help,had better give me sample,thank.

app.execMenuItem most certainly does work with Reader - what problems are you running into trying to use it?
As for developing Reader plug-ins - yes, some of the SDK methods aren't available to Reader. If you want to change the appearance of an annotation in Reader, you would need to acquire the Cos object of that annotation and modify its appearance dictionary manually.

Default Printer problems in Adobe Reader

Repost:
I have over 50 users with Adobe Reader 9.3.3 installed. Every morning someone calls and says Adobe Reader reported that there are no printers installed on their system. When I check their PC I find that the default printer setting has been removed and there is no default printer set. Once reset they have no problems with the printers or their other applications. This only happens when trying to print a PDF.
Why is Adobe Reader removing the default printer setting?
The driver has NOT been removed. Just the default setting.
In very PLAIN English the default printer check mark is GONE.

This is a strange issue indeed.!!!
Can you please let me know, whether the problem reproducible only after opening any specific file? It might be that the file is running a JavaScript on the system causing the default printer setting to be removed.
To verify the same, you can try and disable JavaScript in Adobe Reader 9.3.3 on some of the client systems, and then observe whether the problem is reproducible on their systems as they go around their normal work. (To disable javscript, goto Edit > Preferences > JavaScript and uncheck Enable Acrobat JavaScript)
If any client system tries to open a file which is trying to run a JavaScript code, they will get a Yellow message Bar on top of their page, asking for permissions to run JavaScript. This will give you an idea about the problematic file.
Hope this helps you zero in on the issue..

Adobe Reader 11 does not allow hyperlink transfer to default browser

Hi All,
I have an about dialog created using wxwidgets it also has a hyperlink which when clicked on opens a default browser and opens up the website however this thing runs fine on adobe reader X but give an error like this on adobe reader x1

You should contact our Developer Support directly as we can't really help you with wxWidgets integration issues.

Adobe reader X will not open files on the web

Adobe reader X will not open files on the web. It works fine on off-line files.

Hello Ray,
Please try following steps:
1. Run the installed Adobe Reader X.
2. Click on Edit in the menu bar.
3. Then click on Preferences in the drop down menu list.
4. Click on the Internet category on the left pane.
5. Now, make sure that Display PDF in Browser option is checked.
If above steps doesn't work then let me know which Browser you are using, may be we have to do some settings there.

Adobe Reader X (10.1.1) Invalid plugin detected. Adobe Reader will quit.

This is the second time this has happen.
My system consists of the following:
PC running Windows 7 w/64bit
When I try to open a .pdf Iget a pop-up within 10 seconds say Invalid plugin detected. Adobe Reader will quit.
I paid the $39.00 from tech support to get this fixed in Aug. 2011 and now it's back.
I have gone through all the Adobe hoops and nothing has worked.

Hi,
Do you have any 3rd party plugin installed for Adobe Reader? If not, close all running instances of Adobe Reader and delete the entire folder at: C:\program Files\Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader\plug_ins.
Now goto Control Panel > Programs and Features. Locate the entry for Adobe Reader X and chose to repair the installation.
If you do have a 3rd party plugin installed, try uninstalling them and see if the issue is related to the same. If it works, do let me know which plugins were causing the issue so that I can have a look.
Hopefully, this should fix things.
Thanks

Problem uninistalling and reinstalling Adobe Reader 9.1.3

How do I reinstall Adobe Reader 9.1.3?
When I look at the Adobe site all I see for 9.1.3 is an update.
Origin of the problem
Because of a problem I had downloading any pdf file I decided to uninstall Adobe Read 9.1.3 (with its CPSID-49522 patch)
When I tried to do this in Add/Remove programs I got the message "This patch package could not be opened .."
I then used Windows Installer Cleanup Tool to remove the program. (I noted that it said I would need to reinstall the program.)
This seemed to work. Adobe Reader 9.1.3 was no longer in its list (nor in Add/Remove programs)
However, this only seems to remove the program from these lists - the program AcroRD32.exe is still in 'Program Files' and running it opens Adobe Reader 9.1.3.
David
PS
I still have the Adobe 8 installer 'AdbeRdr80_en_US.exe' stored on my system.
Should I run that?

When I try to install Adobe Reader 9.2 from the file AdbeTdr920_en_US.exe
(downloaded to the Desktop) I get the message:
"Runtime error", "This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it
in an unusual way",
"Adobe Bootstrapper for Single Installation has encountered a problem and
needs to close",
"Installation failed"

Adobe Reader 9 will not install reporting installatiom package could not be opened

I have WIN XP PRO with SP3. This is a new machine and is running beautifully except Adobe Reader 8 or 9 will not install.
At about 94% done the Adobe Download manager stops and shows the following Windows Installer message
The installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer Package.
Of course when I click OK. I get the message from the downloader that "Installation operation completed successfully". Which of course is not true.
Can any one explain what is happening, and how I should address?

Thanks for the help. Your solution to unregister and register msiexec did not resolve the problem, but it got me thinking and I continued looking down this line of thought through the Microsoft KB articles. There I found a comment per security rights authorization. I had been using an account with administrator rights, but I tried again using the actual administrator account. This worked fine. Adobe 9 is installed and running.
