I am used to using Adobe Acrobat Pro, as I do a lot of editing of PDF files. I thought this would work in the same way, but the interface is much different than Acrobat Pro, so it took a while to figure out how to do some things. At first, it was not clear how this program was different from the downloadable reader. I am still not sure I can do all the things I could do in Acrobat Pro, partly because the layout of functions is rather different. Perhaps this is supposed to be an upgrade to what I used before, or perhaps it's a different product. I much more prefer regular Adobe Acrobat Pro.

Had to buy this for work. Does what is says plus more

Although this is helpful, it is still somewhat difficult to use. I was familiar with PDF Converter Pro, but this was not available at Best Buy.

While I'm not overly crazy about the subscription model for Acrobat Pro, it certainly gets the job done. It does all the usual things like reading PDFs, printing, etc. What Pro gets you is some best in class functionality around authoring and editing of PDFs. The ability to send pictures to PDF, or convert images to text and build forms is quite handy. I try to limit as much paper as possible. I use Acrobat and print to PDF constantly to avoid having to waste paper and ink.

It is pretty useful although I would prefer have the opportunity to purchase it on a CD.

I've been using Acrobat Pro at work for years now (Windows version), and this edition was the first I've used at home, and that is on a MAC.....is it worth it? Absolutely! The program does so much that you didn't know you could do with PDF's. It might be to edit a PDF so you can form fill it, it might be to convert a WORD doc into a PDF, it might even be to take a PDF someone else did and be able to edit it.....you might use it to bundle up multiple docs of different programs and make it into a single PDF. I've done all of these, and have done so for quite some time now. This edition brings with it all the existing features, and some new ones too. Optical Character Recognition (OCR) allows you to scan in docs and then edit the text. You can create forms, you can add notes, send for review, etc. There really is no other option for business these days, for sure. It works great with Microsoft Office, and most workplaces seem to have both. But more importantly, while there are cheaper options out there, there is no better option. And nowadays this has become more common at home, and we've been using it at home way more than we expected. Kids in college, job applications, combining multiple documents across multiple platforms into a single PDF, the list goes on and on.......you can use this for home and work. I'll be continuing on with this subscription well after the first year expires, it is a great way to have the most current copy and can assist with both home and work at the same time.

I have used Adobe Acrobat since version 3.0, a couple of decades ago. With each version, Adobe adds more features to keep the software relevant. Adobe Acrobat Pro is no exception. Many people have Acrobat Reader, a free, downloadable program. Acrobat Pro allows you to do more than read files. You can create and edit PDF (Portable Document Format) documents that just about anyone, using any type of computer or mobile device, can read. You can set how the document views, e.g., continuous scrolling, one page at a time, or multiple pages. You can add document properties that make it easier for search engines to find. You can send documents for secure electronic signature. Acrobat pro has lots of features. Here are a few of my favorites: - Ability to scan documents and make text searchable. - Ability to edit text, including point size, typeface and color - Ability to create forms. - Ability to move or delete items and add images. - Ability to optimize a PDF for fast web loading. - Ability to rotate and crop document pages--handy if you scan documents to PDF and they don't come out letter or legal-sized. - Cloud subscription gives you free updates for a year, so you have the latest version. - Acrobat Pro comes bundled with Creative Cloud "All Apps" in both standard and student subscriptions. Here are a few areas that could be improved: - Currently subscription (Cloud) only. This may cost the typical user much more than the legacy, single license version. However, students can get a price break. - Editing --needs the ability to see the location (coordinates) of different items, maybe with rulers? - Editing--needs the ability to resize an image or other object using inches/cm and/or %. All told, Adobe Acrobat Pro is the standard for PDF creation and editing software.

To give a succint review of Adobe Acrobat Pro DC , or any Adobe product , is next to impossible. The reality is Adobe products are the standard in which all others are measured, no other company is on the level of Adobe and this hold true for the Adobe Acrobat Pro DC . Let me start that I have been using Adobe Acrobat ( as well as the whole Adobe Creative Cloud Suite) for my job before I added this to my home computer for review. For those who are not aware of what Adobe Acrobat DC is and what it does. It is a full featured complete subscription based pdf editor that is comprised of 3 main parts Acrobat Pro, Acrobat Reader and Adobe Document cloud. It does not make sense to go over all the features so I will go over some of the things I like , some changes from prior versions, the installation/first time use and some of the basics that new users make like. So let’s talk about the installation and first time use. The program does take a few minutes to download and install, nothing major but it is a large amount of data. You have to register with Adobe to gain access to all the cloud functions. After that the program starts off with a checklist of getting started with Adobe Acrobat. I think that is important because there are so many features that a new user may be a bit overwhelmed by the sheer number of options. The program starts off with tutorial includes an introduction, an interative tour through some of the basic features, a section on exporting to other formats and a video on how to edit ( only 60 seconds.) Adobe did a great job in this tutorial. I’ve been using the program for a while and , once you get used to it, you start to realize how useful and advanced it is . I remember years ago the frustration in editing a document when Adobe Acrobat did not support the font or there was something that was just off with the font that Acrobat used. Not anymore, Acrobat DC automatically matches everything – font, style, color. You can even scan and it will match the font through OCR. It is simply amazing. Speaking of scanning and OCR, Adobe has a free app that scans through your phone ( or Ipad) and imports it into the program to be edited. Once document is loaded you will find the tabbed interface is easy to use, easy to manipulate and just well thought out. As I said I won’t go over all the features, you can find that anywhere. What I can say if you are in need of a powerful pdf editor that is integrated across multiple platforms, there is nothing better. However, the slight downside for the product is price. Adobe has never been known for inexpensive products and this holds true for Acrobat Pro DC. This is a subscription service that costs $180 a year. That is too much for the casual user so if you are not going to be a frequent user, look for an alternative product. If you want to buy the product outright, there is the Acrobat Pro 2017 for $450 but you are limited to the desktop version and you may lose some of the features of the subscription based version.

This Adobe Pro DC is so far the best PDF editor. This has the tabbed multiple PDF interface, which makes it easy to navigate and use instead of multiple windows. I was able to edit documents and add text without looking for the new font on the scanned document. This subscription comes with the cloud feature where you can upload the documents to Adobe cloud and have it handy from anywhere. You can covert, edit, create, and sign PDFs. It also integrates with the Office apps and you can use the plug-in instantaneously to convert any document in a single click. I have created documents with fillable forms. It makes it easy instead of sending word docs and worrying about any changes to it. The only thing I am not a fan of is the subscription model. This is definitely something business would prefer as it keeps the software up to date without allowing any installations via the IT department. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for an always update version of the Acrobat DC.

The Acrobat Pro and Adobe Document Cloud services have made it so easy to create, edit and work with PDF documents. It's very easy to work with a document from my iPhone and then pick up where I left off on my Mac. This is by far the best PDF convertor I have ever worked with. The newest upgrade will even create a font very similar to the existing font instead of just adding in a default font like before. It is truly a great tool for businesses that work with large documents, make changes, use electronic signatures and email to multiple parties. It has a great option to save files to Microsoft One Drive or similar tools. It is very easy to use and they integrate well together. The biggest downside of the program is the pricing. The annual subscription price for this program alone is $180. When you compare that to an annual subscription to the complete Adobe package - it doesn't seem to make sense.

My wife and I have a side business buying, renovating and renting out properties. We are constantly creating contracts and lease agreements for tenants and contractors. Before we had this software, we would typically use Microsoft Word to create these documents. With Adobe Acrobat, I'm able to convert my existing documents to pdf files and make them fillable forms. The interface is simple to use and very easy to edit with. With this software you can also convert excel files to pdfs and everything can be made into a fillable form. The only complaints that i can really make about this software is the cost and ability to calculate field values. I liked it better when back in the day, you bought the software and you could use it until your operating system was no longer compatible. Now, most software is subscription based, so you either pay a monthly fee or annual fee for use. Adobe isn't the only company that does this, but I prefer to pay once and have the software. The other complaint would be calculating fields. When you create a fillable form and want the math to automatically calculate, addition and multiplication are simple. However, doing subtraction or division requires you to create a simplified field notation or custom calculation script. Fortunately, my day job provides a subscription to Lynda.com and I was able to figure out how to do it. There is also Google, which provided some pretty good guidance on doing this. Other than those two things, i have no complaints about this software and I think it is a great resource for my business.

I've used multiple versions of adobe pro throughout the years and I have always loved it. Normally, I use the full non-subscription version as opposed to this new subscription based service. However, like the previous versions of Adobe Pro, the software is easy to use and works great. The only negative I found is that the installation process is horrible. The website is not intuitive, the software download was hard to find, and at every junction there was an attempt to get me to save my credit card information.

As a long time user of Acrobat and the pdf format to distribute documents, the ability to edit, split, and merge pdf files is a useful feature that previously, I've needed to use third party software to accomplish. Often, those come with limitations and other issues which reduce the amount of work I can carry out in that format. The Acrobat Pro DC (Document Cloud) subscription changes this dynamic for the better. Setup and installation was pretty straight forward, though for some reason, it took a long time for the DC download to initiate. Once everything is up an running, one gains the ability to: 1. Create pdfs from a variety of sources. 2. Edit existing pdf pages (reorder, delete, add). 3. Actually edit pdf documents (this is pretty cool, especially for pdf forms that don't leave enough space for long names or text). 4. Work with pdfs across many platforms. As I periodically do work on the go, being able to handle pdfs natively is a plus! 5. Search pdfs where text was not previously searchable. It's annoying that this one gains this capability because that means the creator of the original document deliberately suppressed that feature. That said, this is a plus for Adobe Pro DC. 6. More features - I started with features I've always wanted, but didn't have with the free version of Acrobat Reader. Having explored that, there's clearly a lot more features available that I've yet to use or discover. For those who have already secured licenses for the pro version, this may be old hat. So, why the four stars. . . well, because pdf is mostly a proprietary format. So, there's no competition on products like this. With no alternatives to compare, I don't feel comfortable awarding all five stars.

So I've had some time to play around with the tool and it is great. With small business docs always changing and in the line of child care we like to keep applications up to date. For our elder kids there are sometimes field trips so we need authorization from a parent. Using Adobe DC has really opened up the possibilities for how we get those executed. What I abosolutely love is that I can use this on cross platforms and move from my PC to editing on my phone. Although I am pretty familiar with Adobe I am glad the company provided to short and brush up on my document building skills. Since it is the holidays we are going to attempt to get a sign in sheet for a potluck done with parents over the phone with the faun and simple eSignature feature. Overall it is a simple but well-rounded program and I have always loved how the finished product looks with Adobe. Be mindful that the set up can be a little longer than setting up an email account but the wait is worth it.

Ok when using but impossible to cancel. I have been trying for months.

Most of the windows / mac users are familiar with Adobe Acrobat reader for your school / business use. Adobe Acrobat Pro DC subscription based software will provide options to create, edit, convert, organize and sign PDFs from PC or mobile device. With Adobe document cloud services, it will provide access to PDF tools across all devices. I have installed Adobe Scan mobile app in iOS. It is super helpful to take pictures of paper documents and automatically convert them to editable PDFs with automatic font matching. Withpoint-and-click interface, you can edit PDF documents within Acrobat from your PC or iPad. The really nice feature is to compare two versions of a PDF using an easy-to-scan results summary of all differences. My son was able to convert all his school projects work from word, excel and PowerPoint format without losing original format. With Acrobat Pro DC, we were able to fill, sign and send forms fast from anywhere with smart auto-fill. I really liked the option to access, edit and store files directly to cloud like OneDrive, DropBox etc. It is seamless integration for editing documents on the go. I was able to create high-quality PDF files from Acrobat or popular Microsoft Office apps with restrictions to prevent others from copying, editing, or printing sensitive information especially contract, legal documents for business. It is bit pricey for 1 year subscription when there are many alternative products available to purchase with one time payment. Adobe should explore options for subscription with one time payment for life for future upgrade.
