Question

Current date script appears much older to some users

The custom calculation script shown below is working for some users and then not for others. When it's wrong, it's REALLY wrong (like 11 months off) and the font doesn't even appear correctly. So far the 2 users who reported the issue use a Microsoft Surface. Could this be the problem or is it something else? Thanks for your time.

var f = this.getField("Today");

f.value =

util.printd("dddd, mmmm d, yyyy.", new

Date());

Edge and Chrome are spyware.

You should use Firefox or Opera instead.

The code seems fine. What application are they opening the file with?

They are using Microsoft Edge.

In addition, Chrome is showing today's date as Sunday, March 19, 2019 and it should be Tuesday. This is appearing incorrectly for all users; Surface, desktop PCs and laptops.

Both of these applications use their own PDF plugins, unrelated to Adobe.
