Thanks Paul,
for whatever reason it still does not work. I´ve found a sample stack
XPDF.livecode in the Livecode bundle in
LiveCode Business 9.0.4 (rc 2).app/Contents/Tools/Ext/XPDF-1.0.31
The sample stack works, so it´s my code and i might be missing something.
Unfortunately the script of the sample stack is very detailed, but anyway it´s
working and i just have to dig through the sample script to see how it is
correctly done.
Regards,
Matthias Rebbe
