Is it possible to open a PDF in Adobe Reader so that the user can fill out the form, and then wait until / be notified when they close it?

 Runtime.getRuntime().exec("rundll32 url.dll,FileProtocolHandler " + file);

seems to return immediately (so Process#waitFor is no help), and

Desktop.getDesktop().open(file);

doesn't give any indication of when the file is closed.

JustFormsPDF appears to let you render a PDF using Swing components and collect the data that way, which would be a really nice option. Only problem is it appears to have been last updated in 2004.
