Object Model for PDF Exchange Viewer Javascript Engine

[maccoski]

Hello~

I couldn't decide which form to post this so please re-direct me if I have posted in the wrong place.

I am looking for a simple method to programatically add annotations to some pdf files that I have created from AutoCAD. While reading through the help file provided with PDF Xchange Viewer Pro, I noticed that it is possible to use a "/runjs" command line switch. The example javascript in the help file is essentially what I'm looking to do. I can forsee other applications where I could utilze this approach but I have not been able to locate all of the objects, methods and properties available.

I found "Knowledge Base Article: KB63." I have reviewed the document hyperlink:" PDF-ToolsV4SDK.pdf Help File (Topic 3.2 Low-Level API, pg. 377)". I have also reviewed the hyperlink listed in the last sentence: "This document describes the JavaScript for Acrobat API. All objects, properties and methods are documented and extensive code examples are presented.
JavaScript for Acrobat API Reference, Version 8 (PDF)"

This document helps quite a lot but I don't see a complete list of "all objects, properties and methods". Moreover, some of the objects, properties and methods listed in "JavaScript for Acrobat API Reference, Version 8 (PDF)" do not seem to be available in PDF Xchange Viewer Pro.

Is it possible to get a summary of the PDF Xchange Viewer Pro supported objects, properties and methods?

Hi,

To try and answer 'concisely' - for you the Viewer Ax is the way to go and whilst our implementation of JS is not 100% we are working constantly to add and improve all the time - and on the upside our support in regards annotations is complete - so you should find no limitations there that I can foresee - though there is always the 'caveat' 'foresee' ...

In regards listing all

supported objects, properties and methods?

Thats just not possible as it is huge and would just not be practical - please see the Adobe file :

if you come across any specific problems we would be pleased to assist - but in general terms this is a good place to start along with the simple examples provided in the evaluation SDK.
