Donald P. Story submitted the

docassembly

package.

Version number: 2021-06-11
License type: lppl1.2

Summary description: Use the Acrobat JavaScript API

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

docassembly
Dated: 2021-06-11
Author: D. P. Story

Targeted audience: LaTeX authors who love their pdflatex, lualtex,
xelatex, or dvips -> ps2pdf workflow, who also own Acrobat Pro
application.

The docassembly package defines the docassembly environment in
which JavaScript code can be written to execute once and only once the
newly created PDF in the Acrobat application. The package also defines a
series of helper commands to execute security restricted JavaScript
methods. Using these security restricted commands, you can place
watermarks on the document, attached files, import icons and sounds,
insert pages, extract pages, send email, and so on. All these methods I
have used for years through the aeb_pro package, which generally
restricted to a dvips -> distiller workflow. Now, these methods are
available to all those who own Acrobat, no matter what PDF
