Adobe Reader Javascript Open .DOC

[joshb25850528]

I just tried to many code from internet to open automatically .doc which are attached in PDF but i get this : "Cannot open type of application/msword"

I tried this:

var oDoc = openDataObject("image.doc"); console.println(oDoc.path);

I tried to find another function which are specify the type of the document and to can open it in Microsoft Word!

Seems clear from the documentation that this method is only for PDF. I am inclined to agree that there is no method to do what you want; even automatic extraction has been blocked for a decade. But you may be able to extract the attachment, prompting the user for the location, and have it automatically launch, if that function still works.

I have done it the

this.exportDataObject({ cName: "image.doc", nLaunch: 0 }); and is exported for the user but I cannot launch automatically because I cannot find the javascript command to launch it!

Why nLaunch:0 ?

[joshb25850528]

Because if I use nLaunch:1 or nLaunch:2 nothing happend...

nLaunch: 2 should work, even for non-PDF files, although the user will be presented with a security warning.

Since the documentation says that 0 means DO NOT LAUNCH, that at least is expected.

I know but as I told you I have used 1 and 2 but are not opening it I get only this error: " Cannot open this file type application/msword"

Can you open the attachment manually in Adobe Acrobat?

[joshb25850528]

Yes manually  I can open it, but if I use nLaunch: 1 and nLaunch: 2 I get that error is not opening!

Well, it is the weekend now. But Photoshop 6.0 doesn't need activation. Do you mean Photoshop CS6?

Wrong thread?

Sorry, wrong message. Actually you never said that options 1 and 2 gave this error. You said specifically that openDataObject gave the error.

Still, if you get an error, why would you try to fix it by using an option which is clearly documented as NOT doing what you want?
