To set the groundwork, I presently use Adobe Acrobat Pro version 2020.005.30514 to design/develop interactive PDF forms that rely on Javascript for many form features provided. While I would prefer my users install and run the latest version of Adobe Reader DC, I presently implement a script that checks when the document is first open to verify the user is not using a viewer version less than 11 by activating the script if (app.viewerVersion<11){ ... when 1st page opens. Unfortunately, this obviously allows the end user to use a version of Acrobat Pro less than my own version and a version of Adobe (now Acrobat) Reader less than the latest version. In reality, the later versions of both Acrobat Pro and Acrobat Reader appear to have become so convoluted in addition to changes provided over the years regarding Javascript methods supported by Adobe Reader (depending on which version you're running), I am interested in knowing what the minimum version of Adobe Reader I should be looking to exclude for using my interactive PDF forms created in Acrobat Pro 2020. Sorry for the novel but even after perusing all version numbers of Adobe Acrobat and Reader since their debut, I am still confused regarding this subject matter as well as the whether one needs to provide the entire version number such as 2020.005.3014 or is it acceptable to just enter 2020? Thank you ahead of time.
