Export Comments into a FDF-File with VBA

Hello,

does anybody know, how I export PDF-Comments into a FDF-File - not manually but automatically with an Excel-VBA-Application. (The manual way I know)

I use AdobeAcrobat and I have activated the "Adobe Acrobat 11.0 type library" in my Excel-Version.

Im also familiar with opening a PDF-Document within an Excel-Application, but I dont know further commands to reach my aim.

With Activating another Library "AFormAut 1.0 Type library", there is a command like "ExportasFDF" - but this command is only for exporting fields of forms into a FDF-File - not PDF-comments.

Thanks in advance

Pepe

Try the ExecuteThisJavascript method of the Fields object to execute some code that uses the doc.exportAsFDF method, with which you can use the bAnnotations parameter to include comments.

Hi George. Can you give an example of the above? I'm looking to import comments into Access.

Thanks
