Is there by chance a script that can be added to a PDF form using Acrobat to simulate the edit tool in Adobe Acrobat Pro whereby one can right-click on two stacked images to display a context menu to arrange two stacked images, i.e. bring an image to front or send an image to back, that is also supported in Adobe Reader thereby allowing one to accomplish the same task given two stacked images?
No, not possible. You can't even do it in Acrobat. JS has no access to that type of editing of a PDF file.

Thank you for the reply. In reality, I was hoping that just maybe I inadvertently overlooked or missed something as I was unable to find anything in the API Javascript reference or online. Wishful thinking at best but would be nice if there were a script to accomplish this task and further supported by the Adobe Reader.

Even if it were possible to do using JS, there's no way it would have worked in Reader, which is meant to be, well, a reader, and not an editor of PDF files. For that kind of functionality you need to fork out for Acrobat. That's Adobe's entire business model in the PDF world...
Get ready! An upgraded Adobe Community experience is coming in January.
