You can import the PDF files to your stack by:
put URL ("binfile:<the-path/name-of-your-file.pdf>") into
<thePDFStorageProperty>
On a Mac you should be able to display the pdf in a player, but on
Windows
even with QT enabled it won't render a pdf document. A workaround is
to
write out the file to a temporary location:
put <thePDFStorageProperty> into URL("binfile:<temporarypath/
name.pdf>")
and launch it, or use a revBrowser object to display within Rev.
I think I got the script right:
put URL ("binfile:Users/Daddy/Desktop/HRV feedback.pdf") into xxxVar
set the savePDF1 of this card to xxxVar
answer the result
The result is empty, anyway. And there is a customKey of the card
called "savePDF1" I can't be sure until I know the right script to
display the PDF.
I can't figure out how to write a script to display the imported PDF.
I tried to do it with a player and struck out. I tried to set the
source to "the savePDF1 of this card." That seemed not to work.
A little (more) help? I'm on a Mac. This doesn't need to work on other
platforms.
It would be better if I could display the imported PDF with Preview or
Adobe Reader. I'm on a laptop with a smallish screen and I need more
control over size, zoom, etc. than a player seems to offer.
Retrospective and prospective thanks.
