I started this discussion
.
I have a bunch of PDF documents. I want users to be able to make annotations in their browser, and save them back to my server.
If I use Acrobat X Pro and click on "Send For Shared Review", then it behaves the way I want. However, I don't want to have to manually open Acrobat every time for each file.
Unfortunately, the Acrobat X SDK doesn't support this feature.
I heard that there's another way to do this with FDF files and LiveCycle. Is that right? How do I do that?
What I want is very simple. I want to write a program that will:
- Take a pdf file from my server.
- Enable the users to make annotations in their browser, as if I used "Send For Shared Review"
- Save the annotations back to my server.
- Merge the annotations into a new PDF document.
I can do this with Acrobat via the GUI. I want to write a program that does if for me. Can I do this with LiveCycle?
