Rob,
Thank you so much for the idea! It works quite well for my application.
I tried to reset the form after the file is printed, but then I realized it's a better
idea to include a hidden field in the form.
Thanks a lot!
Nancy

Nancy,
There is no way to disable the right menu button through javascript. You
would probably have to write a plugin to do this.
A less satisfying "solution" that we've used to work around this is to put
code in the docWillPrint action to expose a normally hidden field on the
form that says "NOT OFFICIAL COPY" and gets hidden in the docDidPrint
action. Whether or not this field is exposed is then controlled by a global
flag which gets set from your print button and cleared in docDidPrint. So,
if the user does NOT use your button they get the watermarked form instead.
Hope this helps...

Dear all,
I have a pdf file to be viewed by the user from the web, which I don't want
the user to get more than one copy of the printout. I control the printing
using Acrobat Javascript "this.print(false)". Since I can remove the Acrobat
toolbar, the user can't click the "print" button to print, but they can
still right click the mouse to get the pop-up menu, and then click "print".
Do you know how to disable the right click pop-up menu in Acrobat? Or is
there any way to print the pdf file directly on the user's local printer
without showing it?
Any comments would be greatly appreciated!
Nancy
