FrameMaker 2019 and Acrobat 11 Pro Question

Okay, so I am going to get FrameMaker 2019 and move away from FrameMaker 12.

So, currently I use Acrobat 11 Pro for PDFing and such, with Distiller and all.
There is Acrobat DC, but I hate the montly licensing model and have never understood what Acrobat DC would do for me anyway, so stayed away from that.

But, with FrameMaker 2019 and it's new PDFing goodness, what does that mean for my Acrobat 11 Pro installation?

Thoughts? Advice?

Cheers,

Sean

    Yes, you still have the print to Adobe PDF option, but a rewritten PDF engine within Fm that resides in the Publish pod.

    See the new Fm 2019 feature videos at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DaM9S89eTc8&list=PLJL3v-Ayk9rSlZCHfPQ_jUGgqbrEGGdww

    There's also a free FrameMaker 2019 course with PDF modules available at

    What Windows is your FM12 running under?

    I run my old FM in a virtual machine, so that I don't have to worry about what newer Adobeware, installed on the host OS, might do.

    The best Windows of all: Windows 8.1 .... "Pro."

    At some point a few months ahead, I'll move to a Windows 10 laptop. I hope it's Pro, too.
