how to run a plugin without displaying Forms - Adobe LiveCycle 17-02-2011
I am pretty sure that this can be done - I just can't quite seem to make it happen -I have a plugin that will create a large number of PDF forms from XML data files.This process runs currently and it is very useful but since we process a fairly large number of XML data files it can go on for a while and I would like to have it run with a minimum of screen IO or display.can the plug-in be configured to run silently or nearly silently ?Thanks

Re: Creating a Document Index - Adobe LiveCycle 08-02-2011

"Unfortunately, the Bookmark object (which is used to create the bookmarks from JavaScript) isn't available in Reader (and you can't even Reader-Extend the form to get the Bookmark object).If you need to have bookmarks in Reader, I suggest you use a different technique where you use xfa.host.setFoc...
