Hi! Sorry for the 'longish' post... I am working on a script that generates FDF data and sends it to the browser for display in a PDF file. ...
But it works only in Mozilla, MSIE starts Acrobat Reader which then pops up an alert window saying (translated from german) 'An error occured while opening this file. The file does not exist.' ...
Nothing worked so far, and I'm getting somewhat upset slowly but steadily. So please help!
Answering myself, for the sake of completeness: I found some info about this on the net, and it seems there just is no solution. I decided to show an additional paragraph telling the user to save the file and open it with a double click then (as this works!) for users surfing with MSIE. Does anybody know another free way to manipulate *existing* PDF documents, that might help solve this issue in a different way? Regards, Karsten
