Adobe is not well known for being enterprise friendly. I'm not seeing any public documentation for them about managed preferences, I would suggest reaching out on Adobes discussions forum or opening a ticket with Adobe themselves. As far as I am aware the only settings you can configure are set by the boxes you check when making the package in the admin console.

Adobe support provided below example as below, but when I apply this plist via config policy it doesn't apply any changes in Adobe acrobat, any suggestions to do it differently?

resolve the issue after moving the plist file com.adobe.Reader.plist to <machine root>/Library/Preferences/.
