Creating Navigation Buttons and Full-Screen Viewing

Ted Padova – Feb 19, 2007

Last week I talked about creating navigation buttons to move forward and backward in a PDF document. Once you create the navigation buttons, the next step is setting up the document for viewing. There's no need to add buttons to documents that open in default views. However, if you want to provide more viewing area for PDF pages, you can hide the toolbars or open documents in full-screen views.

Submitting forms from PDF packages

Ted Padova – Mar 12, 2007

You could use some fancy JavaScript code to extract a page from a document and submit that page. But extracting pages is a function that can only be accomplished in Acrobat. Adobe Reader users won’t be able to extract PDF pages. A better solution, which will include both the Acrobat and Reader users among your form recipients, is to create a PDF Package. When a form is added to a package and you add a submit button to the form, only the document in view is sent to the address you specify in the Submit Form dialog box.
