When working with the Acrobat 8 viewer through the .OCX/ActiveX interface, is it possible using JavaScript to hide the (left) navigation panel buttons (pages, search, help, etc...). These buttons are a new addition to Reader 8 and they are creating an undesirable UI effect to a web application I have that's making use of the .OCX Viewer interface.

Reader 8, Windows

Try this. Click File, Properties, Initial View, and make the necessary changes for the Navigation Tab in your PDF file.
