Capturing the username in a rendered PDF using JavaScript/FormCalc

Former Member

Hi,

I'm looking for a way to capture the windows username/login from inside a rendered PDF using JavaScript or FormCalc.

I know it should be near impossible to do this in a browser because of the built-in safeties and blocks straight into JavaScript, but I was hoping it's different for a PDF.

Is this possible, or isn't it?

Thanks in advance,

Frederik-Jan

Not possible?

Hi Frederik-Jan,

No, it is not possible.

Have you thought of using dig sigs to identify the user?

Though a very good idea (I hadn't thought of that actually ), we decided to go a different route and use PI and set parameters to verify users.

Thanks anyway!
