Application events initiate as a result of
the actions that a client application or a server application perform,
either due to a form filler action or an automated process. Application
events do not exist as part of a general flow of events. They are
single events that correspond to actions that the client or server
application performs.
The following list contains the processing events, which are
available from the Show list in the Script Editor:
docClose
docReady
postPrint
postSave
postSubmit
prePrint
preSave
preSubmit
For example, the following
image displays the general flow of events for the preSave event.
If
a form filler saves the form in Acrobat or Adobe Reader, the preSave event initiates
immediately before the save operation, followed by the calculate, validate,
and layout:ready events, in that sequence for all
objects on the form. The same event sequence initiates if the form
contains a script that programmatically saves the form.
A
similar sequence of events occurs for each of the other application
events previously listed.
