Just a clarification on this...
This HTML JS<->PDF JS communication ONLY works with Acrobat/Reader
7.0.5 or later running in IE 6 on Windows.

Your C# application can communicate (in a limited fashion) with the
Adobe Reader COM object, assuming that you have invoked it. You can
also communicate to a PDF that you have loaded into that object via
the JSObject bridge. However, the PDF can't communicate back (other
than responding to your commands).
