(4) Complete support for page actions (5) Complete support for full screen mode, and all the current transition effects through version 8. (6) Methods to easily attach documents (7) document assembly methods, methods used immediately following PDF creation. (8) Methods for linking to attachments and launching attachments (9) Support for creating PDF Packages. (10) Initializing fields using unicode. (11) Basic support for layers, rollovers and animations. (12) In this version (v2.1 or later), the package is opened up to non-Distiller workflows. Use the dvips/Distiller workflow to obtain all features, (1)–(11) below, of this package. For authors that have Acrobat but prefer a non-Distiller workflow, use the useacrobat option for features (1)–(10) below. For authors who do not have Acrobat, use the nopro option to access features (1)–(3),

Extensive examples illustrate all these features.

Installation Instructions: Contained in the documentation aebproman.pdf and in installjsfiles.pdf.

The Acro Blog (http://blog.acrotex.net/) lists the distribution files at http://www.acrotex.net/blog/?pageid=835, all demo files that use AeB Pro are listed at http://www.acrotex.net/blog/?tag=aeb-pro.

What's New (2021-06-20) Now require acrotex-js (https://www.ctan.org/pkg/acrotex-js) to provide the folder JavaScript support and instructions for installation and testing.

What's New (2021-04-27) Added aebCertifyInvisibleSign() to aebpro.js (Version 1.5) This JS function supports http://www.acrotex.net/blog/?p=1274, an article titled Certify Invisible Signing using AeB Pro.

What's New (2021-02-04) Updated documentation to reflect new security restriction by Adobe Acrobat DC (purchased or updated after December 2020). Authored the document acrobat-in-workflow.pdf to explain the procedure to configure Acrobat DC. Creating an altnernative name of aeb-pro, to conform to CTAN naming.

What's New (2019/03/21) This new version requires aeb-comment (version 3.2 of the comment package). Changed the order of loading of the insdljs package.

What's New (2018-02-17) Added a star-option to texHelp, added demo files to illustrate rollover animation techniques (http://www.acrotex.net/blog/?tag=rollovers).

Now, I simply must get back to my retirement.
