How to set DuplexType property of PDF using Acrobat SDK?

How can I set the DuplexType Property of PDF to Duplex Flip Long Side using Acrobat SDK preferrably through Javascript or IAC using VBScript?

I am generating a PDF which needs to be set to Duplex mode by default, no matter even if it gets overridden in print dialog.

Can it be achieved through PDDoc.SetInfo() method? If yes, what would be the InfoKey and its value?

Is there any other approach to do this?

Hi,

Are you meaning that the document always prints duplex, no matter what the userselects in the print dialog?

Or just that it should be set?

Hi Malcolm,

No, I just want the property to be set. User can override it if he wants but the initially created PDF should have this property set to Duplex Flip Long Side.

Thanks in advance for any pointers on this.

Hi,

I have had a look through the JavaScript and can't see a way this can be done, it could be done if you where printing from the document, but not change the setting.

You might be able to get if from VB using the GetInfo/SetInfo methods of the AcroExch.PDDoc, I have not being able to test this, but the documentation says it is possible.
