To get a toolbar button,  you need only add:

var oReloadButton = {
  cName: "Reload",
  cExec: "reloadCurrentDoc(event.target);",
  cEnable: "event.rc = true",
  cMarked: "event.rc = false",
  cTooltext: "Reload Current PDF",
  nPos: -1,
  cLabel: "Reload"
};

app.addToolButton(oReloadButton);


to the JavaScript Alexander posted.
