Hello everyone,

I'm currently working on an Acrobat plugin that involves creating bookmarks and hyperlinks in PDF documents. While I'm new to these technologies, I'm eager to learn more. If anyone has experience with Acrobat SDK, wxWidgets for the GUI, and C++, I would greatly appreciate your guidance and any helpful resources.

If you could share any links or tips for learning Acrobat SDK, it would be a valuable contribution to my project. Thank you in advance for your support.

Best regards,

I use MFC for the UI since it all fits nicely together, with no extra work on my part.  It's windows only of course, but of all the work I've done writing tools for Acrobat in the last 20 years, I've had very few Mac users. 

I don't use wxWidgest or know what kind of bindings are required to make it work. It may work perfectly. The only thing you can do is try. But be aware that the Acrobat plug-in environment is very restrictive.  

 

Let us know if it does work. It may be an easy way to create

Let us know if it does work. It may be an easy way to create multiplatform plug-ins.
