Will a toolbar button created with AcroButtons work in Acrobat Reader?
Yes, because the button definition is created with JavaScript. JavaScript is platform and version independent. This makes the toolbar buttons created with AcroButtons completely portable to any Acrobat tool that is version 6.0 or greater (JS toolbar buttons were implemented in Acrobat 6). For security reasons there are of course some restrictions on the specific JavaScript commands that can be used by a particular version and type of Acrobat. For example, commands that permanently alter a document cannot be used with Reader. So the toolbar button itself will display and operate in Reader, but the operation the toolbar button performs may be restricted.
