Acrobat Button Javascript- Open PDF w/o browser toolbars or menus

Hello.

I need a JavaScript that I can attach to an acrobat button within a PDF document that will call up another PDF file in a full (or re-sizeable) screen window. These PDF files reside on an ftp site and will be delivered over the Internet. I don’t want anyone downloading the PDF files and saving them to their computer so I don’t want to show a browser window (with the “save as” option). Users should be able to only work with the PDF on screen. Document security options seem to handle no printing or copying , but not saving. The primary PDF is being called with html and I was able to get that code written but I now need this other JavaScript to call the secondary file without showing the browser menu/toolbars.

Many thanks!

My Product Information:

Hi,
I need to enable a button to try and open a PDF file. If this file does not exist it needs to open another default PDF.
Thanks
