I thought that PDFs could contain JavaScript too!
- Tepix 6y agoThey can but viewers don‘t execute them with very few exceptions (and even Adobe Reader has it disabled by default i think)
- Cu3PO42 6y agoChrome does and it may be one of the most popular viewers currently in use. If you've never seen it, I encourage everyone to try breakout.pdf [0]. I know it doesn't work in Firefox's viewer, but it does in Chrome's. And yes, it's exactly what it sounds like: an implementation of the classic Breakout game in PDF.
