I have looked at dozens of posts on calculating dates and have not been able to find one that fits my scenario.  I have a date field (EDD)  that I want to use to populate another date field (ECD) 280 days prior. I would also like to be able to calculate (GA) into weeks and days.  I have uploaded a pdf of what I have done in excel  but I need to be able to do this in Adobe.  I do have DC Pro.  Please help, I am still in the learning stages of javascript.

Enter the following custom calculation script in the ECD field:

var EDD=this.getField("EDD").value;
if(!EDD)
{event.value=""}
else
{
var date=util.scand("mm/dd/yyyy", EDD);
date.setDate(date.getDate()-280);
event.value=util.printd("mm/dd/yyyy",date);
}

What is GA?  Weeks and days of what?

GA is gestational Age based off today date and the EDD.  Is it possible in pdf?
