Restrict zoom level for specific pages in my document

Hello, 

 

I'm wondering if there is a chance to lock zoom level of a specific page in my document (using acrobat pro), so the end user could not change it. I know there is a chance to set a default zoom level, however it does not restrict a possibility to zoom in and out for end user.  

If there is no chance do to it using ootb tools, is it posissible to achieve it using javascript tool in Acrobat?

The thing you want to do is not possible.

In fact, I know that Adobe would not create software that would allow restrictions on the user while the user is using the product.

You cannot do it as you wish, but a JavaScript can detect the zoom level and correct it if it is less than xx% and greater than xxx%.

But this will not be user-friendly.
