Which Acrobat Pro DC version introduced Preflight features?

I have an old machine from 2013, and I am just converting many documents from various size to A4 standard size, and the processes mostly crop and convert size.

I’ve searched for which tool to do that and found Adobe acrobat can do that using PreFlight feature.

But when I checked the latest version of the Acrobat Pro DC, the software did not even start due to my old laptop configuration model.

So, I thought to ask about which version of the adobe acrobat pro dc introduced the PreFlight feature so I can check it if it may work in my old laptop.

I did search the community but did not find any similar topic already opened or discussing it.

So, please if anyone may help with just the version number or build number that would be really much appreciated.

Thanks

AH

    Based on what I wrote back in 2017, this was introduced in Acrobat Pro DC:

    “DC” is the version “number”.

    Preflight (in its current form) was introduced in Acrobat 8, around 2006

      Thanks for your reply.

      I am sorry for my inaccurate information request, i mean the version of preflight that includes the feature of scale the page from size x to size y, as this is the feature I am exactly looking for, so I mean that I am looking for the version of acrobat pro dc classic that first includes the scale features among the preflight features.

      Thanks
