dragging files out of portfolio

By default a user is able to drag a file out of a pdf portfolio onto their desktop or a folder. Permission to drag those items onto another document or program is restricted. I'm wondering if it's possible to grant permission to drag the file out of the portfolio into a specified document/program. Is this possible? Where/how could I modify this permission? Specifically, I have image files that I want to drag out of the portfolio and into another pdf document.

Hi,

I don't think you are going to have much luck with this task.

While you can drag out of a portfolio, it is generally just to Explorer. You can't drag a file into another PDF, using drag and drop. This functionality is not available within Acrobat.

In addition you will not be able to drag images from a portfolio or from Explorer into an image field in an XFA form.

Sorry,

Niall
