As the title states, I cannot edit PDF files. The program worked fine for me a few weeks ago, not when I click edit I get a Learn More button. I double checked and I have;

Creative Cloud for individuals - Acrobat Pro DC with Adobe Stock (one-year)‎

I've quit the program, and re-opened. Same issue. I've upgrading to a higher level of Pro, still nothing. What am I missing here?

    Hello chrisc52527142,

    Please note that it is not possible to edit PDF files using Adobe Reader.

    You might need to have Adobe Acrobat software (the same prompt that you are getting for).

    You will need to purchase subscription or license for Acrobat DC to edit PDF files.

    For more details on price & plans, refer: Plans and pricing | Adobe Acrobat DC

    You might try using Acrobat DC version by downloading a 30-day trial version.

    Refer: Download Adobe Acrobat free trial | Acrobat Pro DC

    Let me know if this helps.

    Regards,

    Anubha

    Wow,

    You're telling chris5252714 to get a license for the Acrobat Pro DC product, and yet he JUST said he has it. And not only that, but that he went the extra mile and bought an upgraded version of it. You need to go the extra mile and ACTUALLY READ his post instead of copy-pasting a template response.
