This is definitely a problem for those (of us) who need to control the printing of forms. I know this is ugly, but you could add either a readonly field or an annotation , normally hidden, in your document which you would show in the docWillPrint and hide in docDidPrint actions. This could be controlled by a global flag which only gets set when the user hits your button and cleared in docDidPrint. You couldn't stop the printing but at least you could mark the pages with something like "not official copy". Or if you really wanted to be draconian, make a blank white button or text field the size of the form (then all they will get are blank pages!) Personally, I think the most elegant solution for Adobe would be to add a hideRightClickItem command, and , even better, an addRightClickItem command to build custom items. That would be fantastic! regards Rob Cairns Senior Design Engineer Specialist - I & C Safety Related Computers Computers and Control Design Dept.

The Button is enabled as soon as the correct data is filled in the form. The Print menu is disabled with hideMenuItem("Print") and the hideToolbarButton("Print") at Startup. This works fine. But using Acrobat 6.0.0 and 6.0.1 there appears a popup menu if there is a right click on the form outside of fields. This popup menu contains a print menu. How can I disable this print menu ? It seems to me that hideMenuItem() makes no sense at all if there is a popup which always allows printing through the back door. I feel this is a conceptional error in Acrobat. Does anybody know how to work arround this? Thank you.
