How do I allow User in insert image file

[jasonz82977625]

Using Pro 10 when i test it in pro i can insert any file i like, When i try it in Reader i can only select PDF files.

Also on a side note how do i give them the option to see the clear image button i know it's not   event.target.buttonClearIcon();

this is the JS i am using

// Prompt user to select file to display in this button

event.target.buttonImportIcon();

Hi jasonz82977625,

Would like to inform you that Acrobat Pro (paid service) is a pdf editor using which you may create other files as Pdf but Acrobat Reader (free service) is only for opening the pdf files.

All these functionalities will not work in Reader.

Regards,

Wrong. It will work in Reader (XI or higher), but you will only be able to select PDF files as the image. This is done on purpose by Adobe.

Ok well i guess that's a work around just tell them to convert the image to PDF but what about the clear image button.

There's no such option, as far as I'm aware.

You can use JavaScript to reset the button icon to nothing as discussed in this previous thread: Script to reset the icon of a button

Thx George Johnson adding a button to clear the image works

try67 thx for the help again it suck that in reader you can only insert a PDF and not a JPG, it would be nice if they would let user pick for a small list of file types.

1. var oIconClear = getField("buttonClear").buttonGetIcon({nFace: 0}); 
2. getField("b1").buttonSetIcon({oIcon: oIconClear, nFace: 0});
