Why can't I use soap.request() in Adobe Reader X?

I have a small PDF that uses soap.request() to submit data

This works fine under Adobe Acrobat. I've exported the file with extended Reader abilities, but once I try to invoke soap.request(), I'm getting the following error

Security settings prevent access to this property or method

Any ideas?

I've read abit and it seems like I need to use Adobe Livecycle Reader extentions in order to create a PDF that has this ability, is this correct?

Solution

  • I do not have personal experience with calling a SOAP webservice in Adobe Reader but this forums.adobe.com thread confirms your assumption.
