Mac user new to Reader on Win 10. Need diff product to add text to PDF??

Long time Mac user here. Via Preview (in all Mac OS), we can add text, highlight, etc. to a PDF. My office associate working on a PC in Win 10 can read or fill-in form fields on PDF but that's it. What product do we need to install on our office PC to be able to annotate PDFs like I can in Mac Preview? 

Thanks from desperate in Minneapolis.

Not any more on a PC! Just went through live chat session with this same issue...
I just want to add text to a PDF (Win 10) using Acrobat PRO DC - which used to do that (as did Acrobat Reader)


From Customer Care: "As per the recent upgrades in acrobat pro from 10 to 12 version, Livecycle Designer which was a part of it has been separated."


How convenient for Adobe to separate out one of the primary reasons for PURCHASING Acrobat PRO and now making it a separate bit of software FOR PURCHASE, yet again....     (angry face!!!)

Please tell us how the original question connects to LiveCycle Designer. Designer is ABSOLUTELY NOT a tool for adding text to PDF files.
