          There are examples online of code for doing this conversion.   They are setup for browser JS. This is by no means simple code, but since it's mostly a core JS task, it's not difficult to convert the code to PDF JS.    

          JR's example is a great one, and it's already PDF JS.

          This is not an Acrobat JS-specific question. Try searching online. I'm sure there are hundreds of generic JS solutions posted for this already. If you find one and need help integrating it into a PDF we can help you doing that, but if you want someone to do it for you, you'll probably need to pay them.
