1. Open the PDF file in Adobe Acrobat Pro.
2. Go to File > Save as Other > Optimized PDF.
3. Click OK to pop up message about the attached file.
4. In the PDF Optimizer window, click on Discard Objects in the left sidebar.
5. In the right pane, make sure the checkbox for Discard all JavaScript Actions is checked.
6. Click OK and save.
