Hi,

I am developing an adobe plugin in visual studio 2010 using VC++ and need to extract documentid from pdf metadata using PDDocGetXAPMetadata while requesting pdf file to open but it is giving error PDDocGetXAPMetadataSELPROTO is undefined. I have already included header files PDMetadataProcs.h and PDMetadataCalls.h.

In header file PDMetadataProcs.h

XNPROC(ASText,

PDDocGetXAPMetadata, (IN PDDoc pdDoc)) also showing error: explicit type is missing('int' assumed) and expected a type specifier when compiling.

I want to extract documentid of pdf file before opening it in adobe reader.

Please help me out in resolving this issue.

Thanks.

Is there any way of getting documentid of pdf file?

Use the method PDDocGetID.

PDDoc pdDoc = AVDocGetPDDoc(MyDoc);

char buf[256] = {0};

ASInt32 uintChars = PDDocGetID(pdDoc, 0, (unsigned char*)buf, 256);

it is giving encrypted documentid..my requirement is retrieving decrypted docid
