- - ### Constructor Detail

    - #### PDFJavaScriptLaunchAction

          public PDFJavaScriptLaunchAction(String script)

      Creates a new /Launch action.
      Parameters:
        `script` - the script to run when the launch action is triggered

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### getAction

          public String getAction()

      represent the action to call this method should be implemented to return the action which gets called by the Link Object. This could be a reference to another object or the specific destination of the link
      Specified by:
        `getAction` in class `PDFAction`
      Returns:
        the action to place next to /A within a Link

    - #### toPDFString

          public String toPDFString()

      This method returns a String representation of the PDF object. The result is normally converted/encoded to a byte array by toPDF(). Only use this method to implement the serialization if the object can be fully represented as text. If the PDF representation of the object contains binary content use toPDF() or output(OutputStream) instead. This applies to any object potentially containing a string object because string object are encrypted and therefore need to be binary.
      Overrides:
        `toPDFString` in class `PDFObject`
      Returns:
        String the String representation

    - #### contentEquals

          protected boolean contentEquals(PDFObject obj)

      Check if the other PDFObject has the same content as the current object.

      Note: This function has a contract which is less binding than `Object.equals(Object)`. Whereas equals would require all values to be identical, this method is not required to check everything. In the case of PDFObjects, this means that the overriding function does not have to check for `PDFObject.getObjectID()`.

      Overrides:
        `contentEquals` in class `PDFObject`
      Parameters:
        `obj` - object to compare to.
      Returns:
        true if the other object has the same content.
