Hello Simon,
You said:
1 - "Since the latest update of Acrobat Reader": What update? 8.0?
2 - "I get a message while trying to print a pdf – file silent." "I use iText
in a Sevlet to add JavaScript to a existing PDF. This always worked fine." How?
Overall, what you are trying to accomplish?
"it could be considered a security hazard.I think that's what made Adobe decide
to add such a message"
In my opinion Adobe is to much preocuped with security... Lack os security is
not good, but it shoudln´t be exagerated. Adobe products are not anymore just
desktop products, but it seems they are not ready for that yet. I just can see
what is the security problem about printing a document...
In what relates to silent print I think there are 2 approaches. I didn´t
implemented them yet but I think they work:
1 - Make the pdf print itself;
2 - Communicate with the PDF using client side scripting.
Did anyone found a problem with these approaches?
Thank you

Hi Leonard, My local application runs in a trusted environment but still the
warnings appear.If I (self) sign the document would that be a working solution?
