if you don't mind letting the user out of your environment, there are
routines that boot the PDF in Acrobat are well established and "just
work" pretty much anywhere...
If you want to embed the PDF data in a stack you could store the PDF as
binary in a custom property. Something like:
set the uPDFdata of this stack to url ("binfile:" & pathToOrigPDF)
I want the user to enter a password, if the password is correct the pdf file
should either be saved to harddisk or openend. Is this possible?
Once the user is granted access, you write out the PDF data to the drive.
To get the PDF to display within Rev, you will need to use the revBrowser
external (it is also possible to use a player object to display a PDF, but
this method is not without its difficulties). If the PDF doesn't need to
display within your stack, you could simply launch it once it has been
copied to the drive.
If you want to minimize easy access to the PDF itself, you might be able to
write the file to Rev's temp directory (untested).
put the tempName into pdfPath
set itemdel to "/"
put "private.pdf" into last item of pdfPath
put the uPDFdata of this stack into url ("binfile:" & pdfPath)
HTH.
