Flash does support detection of any other plugin than flash player. You can use the below JavaScript to detect the version of Acrobat plugin in html page . Also you can call this JavaScript from flash using externalInterface class and get back the result to show the message flash. Here is the script
<script type="text/javascript">
var acrobat=new Object();
acrobat.installed=false;
acrobat.version='0.0';
if (navigator.plugins && navigator.plugins.length){
for ( var x = 0, l = navigator.plugins.length; x < l; ++x ) {
if (navigator.plugins[x].description.indexOf('Adobe Acrobat') != -1 || navigator.plugins[x].description.indexOf('PDF') != -1) {
acrobat.version=(navigator.plugins[x].description.indexOf('PDF')!=-1)?'7+':parseFloat(navigator.plugins[x].description.split('Version ')[1]);
if (acrobat.version.toString().length == 1) acrobat.version+='.0';
acrobat.installed=true;
break;
}
}
}
else if (window.ActiveXObject) {
for (x=2; x<10; x++) {
try {
oAcro=eval("new ActiveXObject('PDF.PdfCtrl."+x+"');");
if (oAcro) {
acrobat.installed=true;
acrobat.version=x+'.0';
}
}
catch(e) {}
}
try {
oAcro4=new ActiveXObject('PDF.PdfCtrl.1');
if (oAcro4) {
acrobat.installed=true;
acrobat.version='4.0';
}
}
catch(e) {}
try {
oAcro7=new ActiveXObject('AcroPDF.PDF.1');
if (oAcro7) {
acrobat.installed=true;
acrobat.version='7+';
}
}
catch(e) {}
}
alert (acrobat.version);
</script>
