Adobe Reader - added toolbar: example hello world
Hello world
I would create a "toolbar button" Adobe Reader that supports all version of it.
After a long search for this on the web found an article suggesting that this can be done with one of the 2 methods.
1 acrobat Javascript.
2 acrobat Plugins.
1 acrobat Javascript:
I managed to create a "toolbar button" in Adobe Reader with script placed in "C:\Program Adobe 10.0\Reader\Javascripts" below
Script:
function helloWorld()
{
App.Alert ("Hello World");
}
app.addToolButton({)
cName: "helloWorldBtn", / / name of your button
cExec: "helloWorld()", call //Function
cLabel: "Hello World", //The text on the button
cTooltext: "Say Hello World", //The text to help
cEnable: true
});
Problem with Javascript:
The only problem facing the implementation of my Javascript script is "I couldn't call a method ActiveX or a DLL of this Javascript.
I tried to create new ActiveXObject in code, but it thorws runtime error saying that it ActiveXObject is an unrecognized keyword. (The same "new ActiveXObject" works very well in normal Javascrirpt.
2 acrobat Plugins.
I couldn't find a good sample of "Helloworld" for the creation of a toolbar of the sample on the internet. I think, Plugins, that it would be easier to call the method other DLL by adding a reference or on COM.
Could someone help me is done with a more simple to make with this best sample. Please don't recommend the SDK samples, I don't really understand anything out of it.
If we can create the toolbar with c# or VB, it would be better for me.
Hope you got my problem. Thanks in advance.
Please come back to me if one of my guesses to are wrong.
Yes, these are the two ways to create a button in toolbar - JavaScript or Plugin.
You are also right that you can't do anything with ActiveX or DLL from Acrobat JavaScript - which is the same engine of JavaScript in Mozilla/FireFox. However, add many browsers to additional custom objects (for example, ActiveX), which may be what you think of...
Plugins are written in C/C++, and they are documented in the Acrobat SDK kit. You will need to download what to build. It includes documentation, sample code, etc. HOWEVER, be aware that, in order to develop a plugin for the reader, you must obtain a license from Adobe. There is a cost and process for this license, and details are provided in the SDK.

"Hello World" example I tried, but PS CS5 wouldn't it
I'm not new to programming (C, C++, etc.), but am pretty new to javascript. Successfully, I wrote a script to turn visubility a layer, which has been successfful and then tried the example "Hello World" 'Adobe Photoshop Scripting Guide '. Related to "Adobe Photoshop CS5 (64 bit) (12.064)" and he ran. The code is entered immediately in Debug mode at the line "var = app docRef. Documents.Add (2, 4); "[which is supposed to create a new document], saying: the error is"undefined is not an object. "Could not find anything wrong with my code. Does anyone else have this problem?
It should be NewDocumentMode.RGB
It might be useful if you've watched the javascript guide that comes with Photoshop.

Adobe Reader Crash Protection - BUG? (Degenerate into programming team?)
Hello
One of my friends has been editing a 260 page book in Adobe Reader, adding annotations and other things. Around page 140, the next day, his computer froze. After reboot, Adobe Reader tried and failed to recover what she was working on. She had not registered the changes manually itself, while they were lost. Ouch!
I checked, and automatic registration PDF was 272KO, while the new complete PDF 1.2 MB. This suggests that the computer froze partially thanks to the backup of the PDF file. (Probably for a reason unrelated.) Very bad timing. Here's the thing, though - in my first year of programming, it has been ground my head that a common practice is to save to a new file, the outcrop of the car, then delete the old file, and rename it in place. If Adobe Reader have been coded to do this, it seems to me there are two temporary copies to recover-corrupt and the other a correct copy of a few minutes before?
If it isn't do that, while it's dangerous, and I suggest this escalation to the programming team. They should check their automatic registration code, to ensure that it is on par with what write students in first year of programming.
P.S. I had to listen to someone griping about your software for 3 hours now. Difficulty as soon as POSSIBLE for others to spare heartache. Thank you!

Toolbar missing in Adobe reader plugin in Firefox
Hello
I was crazy enough to remove the toolbar of my Adobe Reader 9 for Firefox 3.5 plugin. I did it by right-clicking on the toolbar and unchecking each option in turn. It's very nice, but now I don't know how to make the toolbar visible again, and I can't find a help on the plugin file. Should I reinstall the plugin?
Thank you very much for your time!
Lee
F8 will toggle the toolbar (hide/show), but given that you deleted all of the content, you will want to use ALT + F8 to reset the toolbar.
Kind regards

I was unable to view PDF files in Firefox and would get a white screen telling me that I had to re - install Adobe. I did this and still he could not visualize the PDF files in the browser window or tab.
Now that I've upgraded to the latest version of Firefox, I don't have the Adobe Reader toolbar which used to be a toolbar above a PDF file when displaying in the browser window or tab. I don't have the printer icon, icon of the diskette, email icon, page arrows to scroll upwards or downwards, the percentage of size, etc.. Is there a way to be able to have this toolbar again?
Hi, I had the same problem. I fixed by changing the hand tool to the selection tool, clicking in the document and THEN by pressing F8.

Thanks for sharing your PDF form with us!
I opened the attachment PDF in Apple Mail, used the iOS feature "open in" (or "copy in") to open it in Acrobat Reader for iOS and filled in one of the text fields. I found no problems with your PDF form.

in most programs, F11 will take you full screen. in adobe reader, you must use Ctrl-L. F11 can be added to adobe reader as a shortcut for mode full screen?
Hi hanekam123,
I'm sorry, that is not possible, that is how Acrobat/Reader is built. For drive mode, you can use Ctrl + L to fullscreen or Ctrl + H.
Kind regards
