Hi, I creating PDF document with script on its load. Script content is some like:

try {

var cURL = "http://www.whitemesa.com/interop/InteropTestC.wsdl"

var cTestString = "This is my test string";

// Call the echoString SOAP method -- it is an RPC Encoded method

var response = SOAP.request(

{

cURL: cURL,

oRequest: {

"http://soapinterop.org/:echoString": {

inputString: cTestString

}

},

cAction: "http://soapinterop.org/"

});

app.alert('ret', 3);

} catch (expp) {

app.alert(expp, 3);

}

I know what it need some "Form Save Rights" to be viewable in Adobe Reader. And I saving it in Adobe Acrobat Pro with: File menu -> Save As other -> Reader Extended PDF -> Enable more tools.

But when I opening new pdf in Adobe Reader 2018.11.200400, I seeing "MethodNotAllowedError" again/

Question: what should/could I fix? My SOAP server will be my own, what I should install onto it? I just need an internet-datetime in my pdf.

Your server has nothing to do with it. LiveCycle Reader Extensions is a product you license which modifies a PDF, adding magic. Once the magic is added, it can do what you want. This magic is expensive.

You need the "Forms Rights". The server product LiveCycle Reader Extensions can add this.

That would be one expensive way to get the time.
