Hello all,
I have an Acrobat Pro-created application for a client, with a lot working Javascript actions and custom code. Everything works great via Adobe Acrobat programs.
But upon testing, we found that opening it via a web browser leads to many functions (spawing pages, submit button, signature, etc.) not working. I looked into the Adobe Embed API option, but I see that has similiar results. Is there any reccomendation or leads to making the special application Javascript functions for all via modern online browsers? Or perhaps fixing my application to better enable its features from any computer?
Thanks much in advance.
Sorry,

No, your PDF will only operate correctly on a PDF viewer that is fully ISO32000 compliant, and also implements a very large portion of the Acrobat JS model. Basically the desktop Reader.
Get rid of page spawning and it'll work on a larger range of viewers, but maybe not browsers or mobile devices.
Use the Acrobat JavaScript Reference early and often

Thanks. I had a feeling this would be the answer but wanted to be sure. Turns out though, the application is meant to be in-office so it's all good the way it is.
