javascript and PDF document

[prolog]

I have a small iframe, which loads a PDF document, in my webpage.


My question is...
Is it possible to write javascript that controls the PDF in the iframe?
For example, I need it to search something in the PDF and select the first word found.



Is it possible?

Yes, it is possible.

Use the new possibilities of the Adobe Acrobat Reader when called from the browser.

The search function of the Adobe Acrobat Reader is invoked like this:

Code: Select all

http://www.xyz.com/document.pdf#search="whatever"

No special JavaScript code needed here!!
