Show document path location in PDF

[TheCodeGuy361]

Hi,

I need to use javascript in a PDF to show the document's file path/
location, and also the current date.

I don't know where to start with the code, does anybody have any
tips?

Thanks so much in advance!

For the path and filename, look up the Doc object in the Adobe Acrobat
Javascript reference. For the current document ('this') you might use

console.println(this.documentFileName)

and you can also get the path( this.path) or base url
(this.baseURL) as appropriate.


For the current date, remember that Acrobat Javascript includes
the basic functionality of Ecma Script. Look it up in your
common-or-garden Javascript reference.
