So basically, this what I want to do:

.this.getField('imageField').importImage('path_to_img');

I know this code is not correct, but is there a way to do this? I couldn't find the solution in Acrobat's documentation.

Most questions I found were referring to the problem when user is selecting an image on click of a button. I don't want that.

I need something like what I wrote above becausepath_to_imageis a variable I'm pulling from a database..

Did you actually set the button's Layout to "Icon Only"?

@michaelw888 Did you check the Acrobat JavaScript Reference for this entry? It clearly states that the field.buttonImportIcon() function is not available in Acrobat Reader.

Use the Acrobat JavaScript Reference early and often
