Switch 11 using Actions Created in Acrobat X
This is a two part question
Anybody running Acrobat X on Switch 11 Windows OS (currently we are using Acrobat 7 pro)?
If you are, can you run a saved Acrobat Action via Switch like you can with Photoshop Actions?
Thanks

Rebranding/custom email notification from Switch
I've created a custom email (body) with our company logo and included things like [Job.NameProper] in the email but when the email is sent the areas aren't populated with the relevant info.
Is it not possible to include any variables in a custom email?
