I've done a very simple prototype of this concept, but someone who tried to take this further discovered a problem that I don't know how to solve yet. In the "Document JavaScript" dialog, he has several scripts, most of which just contain functions, but now he's added one which also has "inline" code, which references one of the functions defined in one of the other document-level JavaScripts. When this document is loaded, we get "undefined function" errors on the call to the function defined in the other document-level JavaScript. Is this simply because our "DocOpen" script, with the inline reference, is alphabetically before the script that defines the function referenced from the "DocOpen" script? I tried a quick test of creating a script named "ZZZDocOpen" and copying in the existing "DocOpen" script. This appeared to work. Is this an illusion? > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:owner- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Aandi Inston > Sent: Friday, July 25, 2003 11:38 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: [PDFdev] Setting scripts for document open? > > > My colleague has a PDF that needs to do some initialization when the > > document is loaded, and also some other work when each page is loaded. > > The Adobe JavaScript reference talks about both events, being Doc/Open > > and Page/Open.
