OLE Automation

This chapter describes the objects, data types, and methods in the OLE automation interface.

The names AcroExch.App and AxAcroPDFLib.AxAcroPDF are the external strings OLE clients use to create objects of certain types. The Acrobat developer type libraries call them CAcro.App and AcroPDFLib, respectively.

Acrobat supports dual interfaces, so the methods all have a return type of HResult.

The following table summarize the available objects and data types.
