openDoc not allowing me to access doc variable
Apologies - this is probably very basic but I can't find a solution anywhere for this. I'm running a script from user / privileged directory. Purpose of the script will be to run through a large number of files and add a comments box to each one. However, I'm falling over at the first hurdle.
I open acrobat and the file "s.pdf" is opened automatically. However, script stops at the next line with message:
"TypeError: myDoc is undefined
2:Folder-Level:User:java_file.js"
addAnnot line runs fine from console using "this" rather than myDoc. Any idea why this isn't working?
Full script is below. Plan is to extend this to include a large number of files each with unique comments.
[in java_file.js]
1. var myDoc = app.openDoc("/C/MyTemporaryFolder/s.pdf");
2. myDoc.addAnnot({type:"FreeText",page:0,rect:[0,1142-200,200,1142],contents:"The quick brown fox"});
3. mySaveAs(myDoc,"/C/MyTemporaryFolder/","te.pdf");
4. myDoc.closeDoc(true);
[in a separate file] - save function works fine from the console.
var mySaveAs = app.trustedFunction(
function(oDoc,cPath,cFlName)
{
app.beginPriv();
// Ensure path has trailing "/"
cPath = cPath.replace(/([^/])$/, "$1/");
try{
oDoc.saveAs(cPath + cFlName);
}catch(e){
app.alert("Error During Save");
}
app.endPriv();
}
);
