Cannot call saveAs javascript code

[jonathanchik]

I would like to use javascript to flatten and save a bunch of pdfs. When I try my simple code in the javascript console:

this.flattenPages();
this.saveAs(this.path);

The viewer flatten all pages, but the console gives the following output:
TypeError: this.saveAs is not a function
2: Console:Exec
undefined


I was following the Acrobat javascript reference already.
I have tried those command in the Editor and found no problem. Those two lines of code can run smoothly. Could you give some suggestions? I can only use Viewer in batch process.

Thank you.

Hi Jonathan,

thanks for the post. That function was not implemented in the Viewer, only the Editor. Is there a reason for using the Viewer here rather than the Editor?

Actually, I intend to implement some automatic batch processing on large number of pdf. However, my company only got the license for Viewer Pro. And I cannot install Editor in my computer due to the Administrative right.
Do you have any suggestion to deal with that? Thank you.

Hi Jonathan,

I'm afraid that, other than suggesting using the Editor (which isn't possible for you), there's no further suggestions that we can really make.

Cheers,
