An error is thrown when a variable is used in any of the following:
1) cfpdf(action="export", type="comment", source="myPDFVariable"
2) cfpdf(action="import", type="comment", source="myPDFVariable"
3) cfpdf(action="import", type="comment", importfrom="myXFDFVariable"
4) cfpdf(action="export", type="metadata", source="myPDFVariable"
5) cfpdf(action="import", type="metadata", source="myPDFVariable"
6) cfpdf(action="import", type="metadata", importfrom="myXMPVariable"
7) cfpdf(action="addattachments", source="myPDFVariable"
8) cfpdfparam(source="myAttachmentVariable"

Steps to reproduce:

1) Download attached CFDocumentWithComment.pdf and CFHTMLToPDFWithComment.pdf
2) Create "temp" and "result" subfolders
3) Uncomment each of the following examples and see errors are thrown according to the comments in each example

Note: Some examples appear to throw no exception, but that's b/c the exception is thrown silently. So check CF's log files.

TODO: When action="sanitize" and action="addstamp" are fixed, please ensure a variable is supported in their attributes as well.

Added By:bihani Note Added: Hi Aaron, The fix for points 1-7 will be made available in the next beta drop. The fix for point 8 is under evaluation and hence a new bug (#CF-4097331) has been raised for it. In all probability, this will be fixed only in the next release.

Date Added :2015-10-01 06:16:48.0 Added By:vadiraja Note Added: The above mentioned actions internally use DDX operation. Hence as of now we are not supporting pdf variables for these features.
