If think you are at a point where you need to read two documents…
First, the PDF Reference (ISO 32000-1) in order to understand how Actions and
Optional Content (aka Layers) are constructed in a PDF.
Second, the Acrobat JavaScript reference in order to understand the options you
have available to you with scripting.
So the answer to your question is _MAYBE_ - but it depends on what you are
trying to accomplish with your actions (eg. What kind of actions, where they
are invoked, etc)

Subject: [iText-questions] Can PdfActions be enabled/disabled?
Hello,
I am using iText to make a PDF file that contains a lot of
interactivity. Now I also have to add layers, to the PDF file, that should have
their own interactivity.
This is where I started encountering problems.
It seems that even thought I am adding the actions to a PdfTemplate that
holds another layer, the actions apply to the entire page and are active in
each layer. Can this behavior be avoided? Can each layer have its own actions?
I am using PdfContentByte.setAction(action, x1, y1, x2, y2); to add the
actions to the content byte and templates.
If there is no predefined solution to this, I was thinking that I could
mime this behavior if there were a way to disable/enable actions from another
action. But again, I didn’t find a way to do this either.
Please help.
Corina
