Hey All,

I'm chasing the java-script  to create a button that will insert a PDF (like a Map) into the existing form as a new page ??

Using Adobe Acrobat Pro XI

Thanks

If this needs to work with Reader, you can insert a page by spawning a template (template.spawn method) that includes a button that's used to display the contents of a page that you can import from an existing PDF (field.buttonImportIcon method). If it just needs to work with Acrobat, you can simply use the doc.insertPages JavaScript method.

Also, the Reader approach using a template can only work with Reader 11 and DC, not earlier versions.
