MY SETUP:
I'm using folder level javascripts. In Acrobat I have the 'enable menue items javascript execution privledge' enabled, In my actual folder level scrips I have them wrapped in a trusted function along with app.beginPriv()/app.endPriv(). My PDF's are coming from LiveCycle Designer which I then open and run in Acrobat.
MY QUESTION:
Through much trial and error and banging my head on the wall I've found that if I want to use insertPages(), extractPages() or deletePages() called as a trusted fucntion on its own it won't work unless I first run a saveAs() function to create a new document file and only then can I run the desired function on the new saveAs'd doc. I simply can't run an insertPages() on the current open doc without a saveAs first().
Why is that?
I find that very frusterating and the resulting errors aren't a help. If I don't SaveAs first I get security error or invalid function errors.
EXAMPLE:
Save As Function:
var LCB_SaveAs = app.trustedFunction(function(doc, filename) {
app.beginPriv();
doc.saveAs(filename);
app.endPriv();
});
Insert Page Function:
var TEST_InsertPage = app.trustedFunction(function(doc, filename) {
app.beginPriv();
doc.insertPages ({
nPage: -1,
cPath: filename
});
app.endPriv();
});
Javascript code in document to call the above functions:
if(typeof(LCB_SaveAs) == "function") {
if(typeof(TEST_InsertPage) == "function") {
try {
TempFileLocation = "/C/PATH/InsertTemp.pdf"
LCB_SaveAs(event.target, TempFileLocation);
try {
PathOfInsertDoc = "/C/PATH/FileToInsertIntoSaveAs'dDoc.pdf"
TEST_InsertPage(event.target, PathOfInsertDoc)
}
catch(e) {
xfa.host.messageBox(e.toString().replace("RaiseError: ","") , 0, 0);
}
}
catch(e) {
xfa.host.messageBox(e.toString().replace("RaiseError: ",""), 0, 0);
}
}
}
