Are you referring the to the windows type library associated with the Acrobat ActiveX Object?  This object does not work reliably from .Net. Especially C#.  It is designed for use with VB.

This object implements the Acrobat IAC, inter-Application Communication interface.

The reference is here:

The IAC is fairly limited. I like to use it at arms length.  What I mean is I use it in more of an administrative capacity.  I'll write folder level scripts to do all the heavy lifting in Acrobat, then call those functions from the JSO object in the IAC.

But just in general, you make a document current by bringing the AVDoc to the front, with the "AVDOC.BringToFront()" function. I believe that opening the AVDoc does the same thing.

Now back to the central issue you asked about, removing the watermark. This is a tough one. There are not IAC or JavaScript commands for removing a watermark, but there is a menu item for doing it. So all you have to do is execute that menu item.

You'll find a list of menu item names, and tool for discovering hidden menus, like the watermark menu on the "PDF Edit" toolbar, Here:
