Hi All,

I have a strange situation here. In my PC bot Acrobat 8.0 Pro and Acrobat 8.0 reader is installed. I have to develop a HTML page and embed a given PDF in it.

But the problem is , depending on the option given I have to open the PDF ( inside browser ) in Acrobat Reader or Acrobat Pro.

in simple words
Option 1 >> View PDF - will open PDF in browser window with only reader controls

Option 2 >> Edit PDF - will open PDF in browser window with Acrobat Pro controls

Is it possible to achieve this using a Javascript in HTML ?

Please help me out , Thanks in advance
