You specified Java, so I would say that iText has some partial support for writing adobe-javascript actions . You should know that the latest versions of itext use the AGPL license, so you have to pay a commercial license if you want to use it in a commercial application with closed source code.

Another option is to use the Adobe Acrobat SDK , but I'm not sure if you can use it with Java.

This feature of the PDF specification (I mean embedded javascript) is usually not used, so it would be difficult to find the initial information and sample code.

Here you will find several examples of interactive PDF files that use javascript, there is even an example of a flying helicopter in 3D (it actually moves while viewing the file).
