You can never completely hide UI controls from the user. They can always reset UI, but you can customize the Acrobat UI from a folder level script with:

app.hideToolbarButton();

This function is privileged and can only be executed during Acrobat initialization. It cannot be run from a document script.

To use this function you need the names of the toolbar buttons. Download the "Menu Item and Toolbar Report Generator" at:
