Reading the document "Javascript for Acrobat API Reference" Page 120:
http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/js_api_reference.pdf
the document discusses the execMenuItem command. From all that I have researched it appears I cannot create a button that copies text from a text field to the UI clipboard.
On page 121 the API reference says:
To ensure a secure environment, the menu items that can be executed are limited to the following:
●AcroSendMail:SendMail
●ActualSize
●AddFileAttachment
●BookmarkShowLocation
●Close
●CropPages
●DeletePages.............
..............
●ZoomViewOut
The list is long but nowhere is "Copy" mentioned. I don't want to surreptitiously copy text or use a trusted function. I am content with the user knowing a button just copied a field of text. I just want to skip the highlighting of multiple field to get all the text. Does anyone know a way around this? I would like to copy a text field to the clipboard so the text can be entered elsewhere in another program.
