Hi

What is the differnce between Adobe Acrobat DC (that comes from Adobe Creative Cloud) and Adobe Pro DC?

All of them do, but with the Standard version you can't add doc-level scripts (at least not via the UI, you can still do it by executing a script from the Console that adds it). If you're going to work with scripts I would recommend getting Acrobat Pro.

You need Acrobat Pro DC to create searchable and editable text in PDF files. While Acrobat Standard DC includes enough editing capabilities for most personal and business use cases, Acrobat Pro DC adds a few that might be required in certain scenarios.

Which version of Adobe Acrobat supports JavaScript? I am not sure if Adobe Acrobat Standard would suffice or do I need Pro?

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.

This page lists all of Acrobat Pro's features, and you can click to see the Standard version's features. There doesn't seem to be a side-by-side of the two, though.
