I just saw a similar question but for VB. Is there someone that could help me here.

I have been trying to call Print function on Acrobat via a java-to-activex bridge--rjax by Halcyon. I haven't been successful. I was trying to use the AcrobatReader 5.0.5 /activex/pdf.ocx file to generate the bridge, but I believe this does not work because the ocx is for Acrobat as plugin. Is there a pdf.ocx file for the full pay version of Acrobat? Maybe the ocx files differ between the two versions and if I buy Acrobat I will be able to make solution work??

Is there an alternate path that I should take? Is it possible/feasible to call Acrobat dll's directly via JNI functionality?
