Hi all.
This is a long shot, but is there any kind of PDF gadget in Livecode that can run javascript? I am specifically wanting to generate an FDF file from fillable forms. The javascript is fairly straightforward:
This.ExportAsFDF(true, false, null)
This will work in a javascript enabled PDF application and will use the currently open PDF fillable document, generating an FDF file named after the PDF name (without the dot3 extension) appended by “_data.fdf”
It would be quite the luxury to be able to do this in Livecode, otherwise I have to pay for a licensed Pro version (I think they are all subscription based now) and the ONLY thing I need from the Pro version is this function.
