Hi!
I am wondering how to prepare a PDF file which would silently notify my server that someone has open it?
What do you suggest?

I even tried to use submitForm() to send PDF file name, but it ended with called web page open inside Acrobat.
I must say I do not have experience in Acrobat's JavaScript and maybe there's a way to do this better. On the server side I can do anything as I am it's administrator, but I do not know how to send data to the server in a silent and robust way.

Can't you place some sort of listener or monitor on the server-side that let's you know when a file has been opened by any of the users? I'm sure it's possible.

Server side is not a problem. I can take a look at Apache's logs to see if there was a try to access the server.
The problem is that I do not know how to do it in Acrobat's JavaScript in an way that wouldn't be noticed by a person who opens PDF (or at least i a way that wouldn't open a page in Acrobat).
