Please help about controlling PDFs through JavaScript loaded inside Safari.

Safari uses a PDF plugin of its own something exclusive to Safari and not present in other webkit based browsers like Chrome.

Any of the or js commands that would work with the Adobe's plugin don't seem to work.

Any help / pointers would be appreciated.
