There is no reliable way to do this that works in all viewers.

Subject: [iText-questions] Track PDF views?

I would like to know when anyone views my PDF.

This includes when someone downloads the PDF, sends it as an attachment in an 
email, and a third person opens the PDF in Adobe Reader.

Is there some way to connect back to a server and increment a counter?

Recent versions of Adobe Reader disable JavaScript by default, so the solution 
cannot include JavaScript.

Thanks for any suggestions.
