Question

Plug-in is disabled in Browser

Dear Support,

Recently we are trying to develop an additional plug-in for Adobe Acrobat Reader 2017.

The version we are using is Adobe Acrobat Reader 2017.

We are creating the plug-in using Javascript. The Plug-in is put as a button with action to export the annotation file (.fdf)

When opening the PDF file in the Native Application, the Plug-in is Active. Yet when we open the file in the Web Browser, the Plug-in is disabled.

We need to have the Plug-in to be functioning in the Web Browser (Internet Explorer), since that's the use case that we need to be done.

Any suggestion regarding this issue?

Thank you for any assistance.

Regards,

Adam.
