If you don't mind me asking, why are 10 and 12 being used?

accessibility question

Ah, okay we can only use 10.x now and likely will only be able to use 12.x
for the next few years.  I also found out not only did acrobat start in
protected mode, the document was also password protected.  I wish acrobat
had told me both of those things explicitly together because I would have
not wasted about a week's worth of work.
