set preferences from Javascript

Can preferences be set from a folder-level or document-level Javascript in
Acrobat Pro 7 and 8?

In particular, I am interested in toggling on "Display PDF in browser"
and "Use local fonts".

Thanks,

You certainly can't set this on a per-document basis, because Reader
has to restart. I don't know if you can set it programmatically at
all.

Aandi,

Thanks.

Reader is not an issue. All workstations have Acrobat Pro 7.0.8.

This is to support our browser-based review, which must be done, obviously, in
the browser.

We have a folder-level Javascript installed on all workstations. I was hoping to
place the code there.

If there is no direct command equivalent to setPreferenceEx, do you think it
could be done with App.execMenuItem?
