PDF Embed API - Call Print and Save Function Programmatically

[default26f5or70y14t]

I want to use the Save and Print functions in the API externally to the iFrame. Is is there a function in

`AdobeDC.View` that would allow me to call these features programmatically?

Currently, the print sand save functions cannot be triggered programmatically.

However, you can set up the save functionality to autosave at a given interval. Additionally, you can turn on "focus polling" so that a save occurs when the viewer loses focus.

With focus polling, adding your own save button is unnecessary since simply by moving the focus to your button would cause the save to occur. What you might want to do instead is add your "Save" button but make it do something with the saved PDF rather than just update the content in the viewer.

Hi Joel

This doesn't work actually. Even with enableFocusPolling=true, it takes aroud 2 seconds after the annotation before SAVE_API is triggered.

This means that our fake-Save button does not have the latest copy of the PDF file.

1. Is there a way to trigger SAVE programmatically?
2. Is there a way to programmatically check if any changes are unsaved?

Hi Joel

I have created this CodePen to illustrate this point: https://codepen.io/vmit/pen/JjMraxg
