%FDF-1.2
%âãÏÓ

If you would like to export the comments, you can use the bAnnotations variable in your exportAsFDF function.

this.exportAsFDF({bAnnotations: "true"});
To see how to implement all the different functions of your FDF, you should read the [url=http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/js_api_reference.pdf]JavaScript API reference[/url]

fdform.ExportAsFDF("D:\RMT\test.fdf", "", True), annotations are not getting extracted from the pdf file in the fdf.

some times it creates fdf with 1kb, i.e. th content of fdf file will be -

%FDF-1.2
%âãÏÓ
1 0 obj
<<3B3126BC9B93DA4C8260E6D2943A6E8C>]/F(../in/Test_Test_18636.pdf)>>>>
endobj
trailer
<>
%%EOF

what will be the reason?
can any one advise how to avoid this? i am using javascript to extract the comments in fdf.

Thanks in advance.
