Acrobat Adobe Reader mobile app not displaying dependent drop down menus

I have designed an interactive PDF in Acrobat Pro on my computer. The PDF has dependent drop down menus using javascript. The dependent drop downs work on a computer (both Mac & PC) and in 3rd party PDF viewer apps (PDF Expert ) but not in the mobile Acrobat app made by Adobe. Any advice to make it work in the native app made by Adobe? Tried both apple and android devices.

    Hi ambam91,

     

    Hope you are doing well.

    Thank you for posting your query here. As @Bernd Alheit mentioned, Adobe does not support all the javascript features for the time being. It's in a future enhancement pipeline. You will get an official announcement as well as a notification when this will roll out.


    For submitting your request for this feature please refer to: https://www.adobe.com/products/wishform.html

     

    Let us know how it works at your end. If you have any further queries please feel free to reach out to us. We would be more than happy to assist you.

    Regards

    Ria

    So how would I make my PDF compatible - is there a free app that works with Android that would display / work correctly?
