Hi,
I have created an index from a few hundred pdf files. It works just fine. A user asked me today how he could - easily - retrieve the document location (path and filename) so that he could create and share the link to the particular pdf with other users (via e.mail for example). I found the "location" in the Document Properties, but it only opens the folder. You'd have to:
search for the pdf
open the pdf
open the document properties
(couldn't find out how to copy&paste the location data)
so click to open Explorer
copy the path
copy the filename
send the e.mail
*whew*
Is there an easier way ?
If it could be done, would it also be possible to add a button to the toolbar with "copy file location and filename to clipboard", for example ?
Thanks, and have a good weekend !
Create a new bookmark.
Add the following "JavaScript" action to the bookmark:
console.show(); // open console
console.clear(); // clear contents
console.println(this.path); // display the current pdf's path
Save the action.
set the action.
Double click the new bookmark.
You can now select the displayed text and cut and paste.
