create from a word docx the PDF file then loads up in Acrobat DC Reader

Question

We have installed the Latest Acrobat DC Pro, and now when we create an PDF file from a Word docx file ,we then open up this file but it just loads straight into DC reader ?? which is very annoying as I want it to open up in the Acutal Acrobat DC program.

I guess there is some Preferences in Acrobat DC Program in general setting s to make files open in Dc Reader etc.

So can anyone tell me how to make the PDF files open up in the Acrobat DC Program.

In Acrobat, go to Edit - Preferences - General and click the Select Default PDF Handler button and then select Acrobat from the list.

But if you have Acrobat then you don't really need Reader anymore. You can uninstall it.
