How to use Acrobat plugin from C++ application with InterAppCommunication

Question

My app needs to open a pdf in Acrobat and apply a plugin. I searched the internet for solutions but I didn't find at least one example.

What I did: I managed to develop the plugin, integrate it in Acrobat and open pdfs in Acrobat.

Now I just need to apply it and I'm stuck. Any help?

Thanks! :)

I tried out some methods from Acrobat SDK documentation and I found the answer: you can call the plugin with:

acrobatApp -> MenuItemExecute( "itemName");

where itemName is the name you set in plugin handshake method.
