Remarks

This method is used to extract the JavaScript actions contained in a PDF file.

This method extracts all the global JavaScript actions contained in a PDF file as a list of PDFJavaScript objects. Each object contains properties indicating the name and the code.

The method returns an empty list of the source file does not contain JavaScript.

You can use PDFFile.WriteJavaScript to write JavaScript actions to a PDF file.

The JavaScript actions are global for the document and are not attached to a particular page. But pages or other PDF objects can reference these JavaScript actions.

The JavaScript actions are sorted and executed in ascending order based on the PDFJavaScript.Name property value.
