Supported interfaces are in the Acrobat SDK. NO JAVA API.

If you can already call AppleScript from Java, why can't you use this for Apple JavaScript.

There is no support for this path, you are going into new areas.

Yes. we can call indesign/photoshop javascript in java using applescript. But don't know how to call Acrobat javascript.

Also don't know whether it will support or not. How to use path and how to call.

AppleScript is not Java.

And you should ask here: Acrobat SDK
