Developing Applications Using Interapplication Communication
Overview Adobe Acrobat provides support for InterApplication Communication (IAC) through OLE and DDE on Microsoft Windows and through Apple events and AppleScript on Mac OS. This support allows programs to control Acrobat Professional, Acrobat Standard and Adobe Reader in much the same way as a user would. The user can also use the IAC support to render an Adobe PDF file into any specified window instead of the Acrobat or Adobe Reader window. IAC methods and events serve as wrappers for some of the core API calls in the Acrobat SDK. As such, IAC supports enterprise workflows by making it possible to control Acrobat and Adobe Reader, display PDF documents in other applications, and manipulate PDF data from other applications.
