I have done some work with this, to get anywhere you need the SDK, but
there's a tlb for Acrobat 4.0 and a whole bunch of com interfaces.

Unfortunately the thing I wanted to do seemed to be impossible ie bring
up a particular page view it at a specified magnification, use /Fbot's
screen grabber to capture the image and save it for comparison. The
difficulty was in the timing ie knowing when the operations had actually
completed, just because you ask to switch to full screen mode and the
com method returns doesn't mean that the event has completed.
