I need to change the default "Save As" folder in a rights-enabled PDF document sent via email. I would like the user's desktop to be the target location when they press a "Save" button in the document. Can this be done in javascript? Any assistance greatly appreciated.

Can't be done. But you are not the only person who's asked about it. This would be a great JavaScript feature.

Thanks for the reply Thom. Is there any other non-Javascript method for accomplishing this that you're aware of?
