If the document has been “Comment Enabled for Reader”, how to let “commenting & Markup” toolbar avaliable when open the PDF document with the browsers, such as IE, Firefox and so on? Or when I’m using a Adobe Reader 8 OLE object within a Windows Form, when I open a PDF document, how can let “commenting & Markup” toolbar avaliable?
the answer is documented in the Acrobat SDKs “JavaScript Scripting Guide” Use “Collab.showAnnotToolsWhenNoCollab = true;” and embed this in the document or call it in your desktop application using either AFExecuteThisScript or ExecuteThisJavaScript depending on which API set you are using.
