"invalid plugin detected. Adobe Reader will quit" for developing api

Dear All, I am using Adobe SDK to develop .api. Using sample code - basicplugin project. It can be built successfully. I put .api into adobe plugins directory. Reopen Acrobat and it can show menu. But it will show “invalid plugin detected. Adobe Reader will quit". I don't know if it needs to be enable by using tools Makekeys and singpluing to enable .api.  Thanks and best regards,Tony

Adobe API Tools

For Administrators, is there anyway to leverage Adobe API and know how users are using Acrobat DC?   Let's assume, I've about 10000 Acrobat users in my organisation and we would like to know what is the use case for Acrobat. i.e creating PDF/ Printing / Editing.   Thank you.

File Preview error

The demo works fine. But when I try to use PDF Embed API to place my own PDF, I get a File Preview error. I see other posts on this forum with the same problem but can't find an answer.

Document analyzing

Hello,We are a document service company and recieve large print jobs that consist of mostly pdf's. Sometimes these documents have several page sizes in one pdf and are a mixture of black and white and color. Some clients request a quote for the job before and this can be a long time consuming process.Is there a batch function or adobe app that can analyze PDF documents for page size and give you a list of all page sizes found ? Also is there a function that can detect visible color and not coded color, as in you can scan a black and white document in color, it will still look black and white but when printed on a color printer will usecolor tonner and not black and white tonner. Thanks.

Using the PDF Embed API with a list of pdfs

Hello, I am new to the PDF Embed API and I am not really a developer, but I am pretty good at playing around and figuring things out. I am playing with the PDF Embed API. We have long lists of downloadable pdfs for our products. I would like to have one column of pdf links on a side panel, and when one of our customers clicks on a link, have the linked to pdf open in the embedded window, which is located in the main column of the product page. So far I can have one snippet of code for one link, but I would like to have different links open up in the embedded window as a customer clicks on them. I am trying to get away from our customers opening new tabs or navigating away from our webpage as they look through our downloadables. How do I adjust the code to support this?

PDF Embed API - Annotation & Search

Hi Adobe Forum,We have a unique request, not sure if it's possible, but would appreciate some guidance if it is.1. When adding an annotation, is it possible to get the selected text from that annotation, not only the bounding boxes?2. Is it possible to programatticaly do a text search in a document?3. If yes, is it possible to limit search to the current page you are on, and not the complete document? Any help in this regard would be greatly appreciated! PS: Love what the people at Adobe are doing!!!

Clone and render the PDF Embed API in local

Hi,We are trying to integrate the PDF Embed API into our website to enhance the client experience of viewing the PDF documents. We have followed the guidelines from Adobe documentation to obtain the client ID registered to our domain.We have realized that we have to include "https://documentcloud.adobe.com/view-sdk/main.js" script to render the PDF viewer (This script internally makes multiple calls to other script files). Our firm has restrictions loading the above script and our cyber team has raised concerns over including a third party script in our website. Is there any way, we can download the PDF Embed API scripts to our code repository and start consuming without making any request to https://documentcloud.adobe.com. Note: We are using Adobe Experience Manager to build our website. Please let us know any alternative approach/options. Thanks in advance.

Error when trying to Embed PDF API on website

I have tried numerous versions of this code to and I'm still getting some kind of error. The latest indicates that my API credentials do not include the domain I'm using.

Custom tracking on embedded PDF

Hi,I'm using an external analytics API on my site. For it to be able to track activity in iframes, they say I need to include the tracking code into said iframes as well. In other cases, even for iframes from other domains, this simple thing worked:<iframe src="..."> <script> //tracking code </script> </iframe> But with the PDF Embed API I'm starting with a div, in which the iframe is created dynamically. Is there any way I can get my tracking code there?I tried adding the tracking code into the iframe.innerHTML after it's created but that doesn't seem to work for the tracking...Thanks in advance!

Is there a way to hide the header and page controls in the DC View SDK?

I would like to use a set of custom buttons outside the viewer to navigate through the document, and hide the viewer's interface. The showPageControls parameter doesn't seem to do anything when embedMode is SIZED_CONTAINER.  Can the page controls be hidden? There is an undocumented showTopBar parameter in the JavaScript code, but it doesn't seem to do anything, either.  Can the top bar be hidden?

Mathematical fonts on embedded pdfs

Hi, When I embed a pdf using the Adobe View sdk, Times new roman italics do not appear to display correctly in mathematical type (e.g. the x's don't look correct). Here is an example of what I mean: https://parkermaths.com/Resources/QuestionApp/Y1WK6HW.php The screenshot below shows what it should look like (this is what you get if you right click and download). Is there a workaround for this? Thanks, Andy

OCR ExecutionContext error in ThreadPool

I am trying to run the OCR operation in a ThreadPool. My code looks like this:     ThreadPoolExecutor executor = (ThreadPoolExecutor) Executors.newFixedThreadPool(5); executor.submit(() -> { Credentials credentials = Credentials.serviceAccountCredentialsBuilder() .fromFile("/home/darvasr/dc-services-sdk-credentials.json") .build(); ExecutionContext executionContext = ExecutionContext.create(credentials); OCROperation ocrOperation = OCROperation.createNew();     But when the ExecutionContext instance gets created the run fails and exception occurs when the AuthenticatorFactory calls this:     return new JwtAuthenticator((ServiceAccountCredentials) credentials);     Detailed exception: What could be the problem (Same happens when I run it without the ThreadPoolExecutor) ? The OCR-ing works in a separate project.
