The Acrobat JavaScript API is not always easy to use, and its certainly not obvious. Copying scripts seems like it should be easy, but as anyone whose done it knows, there are always pitfalls. I hope these tips will be a help to you in the future. Vijay,

But no, it's not all free. We put an enormous amount of money and effort into putting this site together. There is no other resource available, book, website, or CD that offers this kind of organized, compresensive information on scripting Acrobat and PDF. And we are adding to it all the time. And something that we don't advertise is that we offer limited consulting to members on topics that we have yet to cover. After all, you'd pay for a book. We think it's quite resonable to ask for the small amount that we charge for acquiring much, much more than you'd get from any other resouce. You have to understand that anyone who provides useful information, whether it be on a forum, web site, giving a seminar at a conference, or any other resource, spends thier time and most likely thier own money doing it. You shouldn't turn your nose up at such efforts. These are the people who are making things, they are creating and driving the industry. So the question is, what are you doing? Hi Bill,

Thom is one of foremost experts in JavaScript programming for PDF, so the money is well spent if you want to learn all the ins-and-outs of how to get the most out of JavaScript in PDF.
