I previously developed custom javascript for adobe XI that custom stamps and saves the file.  Now our company is moving to DC reader but want the same functionality.  Is this possible in Reader?

If it worked in Reader XI then most likely, yes. If it was in Acrobat it depends on what exactly your code does...

Thanks for the reply!  I added in the javascript and the stamp files.  The custom buttons show in the add-on menu but it errors on this line: this.flattenPages()  that is doesn't have permission.  Any thoughts?

This method can't be used in Reader. You can replace it with a method to set all comments/form fields as read-only. It's not the same, but it's the best you can do...
