I am new with automation to adobe 


I have a pdf file that is created by a third-party app


The pdf file contains elements that when the user click on them a popup menu appears.

 

I want to interrupt with the menu item or add a new menu item which perform an action when clicked.

 

I dont care if the code is implemented with Visual Basic, C#, Java, JS, VBS or in any other langue.

 

What are the tools i should use (Acrobat SDK, pro license of adobe...) ?

Without seeing the actual document it's very hard to say for sure, but my guess is it's done using JavaScript.
In order to be able to edit it all you need is Acrobat, and a knowledge of Acrobat JavaScript, of course.
