Go here and download this zip file. If you have more than one drive, put everything in the root of that drive letter. If all you have is C:/ drive, then make two new folders in the root of C:/ for testing. this only works for testing if the main movie exe and the two folders are in the root of the drive, otherwise you must burn it all to a CD to test. I don't know about you, but I got enough coasters around now.
So in C:/ drive, or another drive partition, make two folders. Name them fscommand and test, lowercase names. From that zip file, Put all these example pdf files in the test folder. Put the openapplication.exe, the fla and the swf into the root of the drive, right in C:/ dive, not inside another folder.
The exe and bat files named after the 4 pdf files all go in the fscommand folder.
This should now work for you by double clicking the openapplication.exe file and clicking the buttons, one at a time. Give them some time. It takes a few seconds for the pdf to load.
You only need one invoke.exe copy in the fscommand folder. Unchanged, use it as is. You can't edit it anyway.
Also in the fscommand folder are the exe files named after the matching pdf files in the test folder. What these are are the proxy.exe file renamed to match the pdf file names, exactly. [Never name files of any kind in anything but lowercase and never use a space.] You need one copy of proxy for each pdf file your opening, so in this case, 4 of them, and they all go in the fscommand folder. Also in fscommand, you see 4 matching bat files. To edit them to see how they are made, right click one and click on Edit. All it is is one line of code. To make a new bat file, simply use Windows Notepad, add the code, then Save As, name it and force a dot bat for a file extension name.
That's about it. simple heh?
