## Detailed Description

An annotation, page object, or (beginning with PDF 1.3) interactive form field may include an entry named "AA" which specifies an additional-actions dictionary (PDF 1.2) that extends the set of events that can trigger the execution of an action. In PDF 1.4, the document catalog dictionary may also contain an "AA" entry for trigger events affecting the document as a whole.
This class can be constructed from PDF document, PDF page, PDF form field, PDF annotation (only some types) or an existing additional-actions dictionary and can be used to get/set data from an additional-actions dictionary from PDF document, PDF page, PDF form field or PDF annotation.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

## ◆ AdditionalAction() [1/5]

com.foxit.sdk.pdf.actions.AdditionalAction.AdditionalAction | ( | PDFDoc | doc,
|  | PDFDictionary | pdf_dict
| ) |  | throws com.foxit.sdk.PDFException

Constructor, from a PDF document or a PDF dictionary (if any).

Parameters

  [in] | doc | A valid PDF document object.
  [in] | pdf_dict | A PDF dictionary which represents an additional action dictionary. If this parameter is null, that means just to construct an Additional action object with PDF document. If this parameter is not null, that means to construct an Additional action object from this PDF dictionary should have existed in the specified PDF document and represents the additional action dictionary. Default value: null.

## ◆ AdditionalAction() [2/5]

com.foxit.sdk.pdf.actions.AdditionalAction.AdditionalAction | ( | PDFPage | page | ) | throws com.foxit.sdk.PDFException

Constructor, from a PDF page.

Parameters
