A .sequ file contains an Action created by the Action Wizard. Such an Action can only be executed via the user interface in Adobe Acrobat Pro. There is no documented method to run an Action via any of the APIs published as part of the Acrobat SDK.

What you can do is to deconstruct the Action and see if you can automate the individual processing steps via the API. If and how that would work depends on the processing steps in your Action, but also on the API you are using.

Thanks for your reply. Some of the third party tools are devloped run the .sequ file outside acrobat. Please provide alternate solution.

You are free to try to work out how those tools work without an API. It’s not our job to do that for you.
