Adobe Acrobat Pro DC on Windows 2012 terminal services server

Hi

We operate on a Windows 2012 terminal server environment and although there is potential for approx 80 or so users to be logged on via Remote Desktop, only 8 or so users would actually need to use the software.  I'm not really wanting to install software on local machines but no point in licencing for 80.  Is there anything you can advise please to solve the problem?

Thanks

Hi adrianh90880563​

What i can suggest here is that you should opt for Acrobat DC subscription plan for all of your 8 users.

1. Install Acrobat DC on all Terminal servers you have with named users licensing (Steps at Common Deployment Options — Enterprise Administration Guide )

2. Block Acrobat usage via group policy for all other users except the users  who will use it.

3. Now when these users will log in they have to sign in once in Acrobat and will be able to use Acrobat without having to sign in again next time.

You can refer the Acrobat ETK for more information on this.
