Adobe will NOT be changing it's position - this is a security concern and we plan to continue to prevent the use of insecure functionality in untrusted environments. Our users prefer it this way.

That said, we understand that there ARE scenarios where trust can be established and therefore such features SHOULD be enabled. In those environments, we expect to allow you to do this.

It's all about trust...

Leonard,

In the future I do believe Adobe will need to change its position about this, because while they see it as a threat, customers see it as a functionality. Also, I think there is another way to acomplish a silent print: if one use the same code but in a javascript folder.

Depends on your certificate.

In the future, there may be other options - but for Acrobat 8.x, this is the only one.

Hi,

What is the consequence of that in the size of the pdf, if any?

Thanks

YOU may consider it trusted, but you have not in any way designed it to Acrobat/Reader - so it doesn't know that.

Self-signing the document AND then distributing that signature to all users and marking it as trusted will indeed work.

Hi Leonard,

My local application runs in a trusted environment but still the warnings appear.
If I (self) sign the document would that be a working solution?

Regards,
