Hi all.
I am trying to use the XPDF viewer and cannot get a document to render. :ere is my code:
on mouseUp
put the windowid of this stack into tWindowID
answer file "Select a PDF file:"
put the result into tResult
if tResult is "Cancel" then \
exit mouseUp
put it into tFormFile
XPDFViewer_Open "Form", tWindowID
put the result into tResult
put the rect of this card into tRect
add 200 to item 1 of tRect
XPDFViewer_Set "Form", "fileName", tFormFile — nothing displays
put the result into tResult
XPDFViewer_Set "form", "rect", tRect
put XPDFViewer_get("Form", "rect") into tViewerRect — not what I set it to!
end mouseUp
Any ideas? There are no examples in the dictionary and no lessons online.
And just to avoid complications, the PDF Widget will not work because it does not display form data in a filled form, it only displays the graphic layer and the text layer.
