I seriously can't believe companies are allowed to operate like this most people don't have any use for PDF let alone know what they are... it's absolutely insane that Adobe thinks they should charge so much.  I might be wiling to pay this much p/yr but 25/mo PLUS TAX, as though anyone in the world edits PDF files everyday, even if I was using this program everyday (which I wont be) it still wouldn't be worth this price to me.  Am I wrong? dying to know what somebody else thinks...

I made the mistake of buying it tried on two documents neither worked even close have tried getting a refund but you can’t because I bought it thru Apple apps so they run you back and forth both saying the other has to do it

not only does the product not work they are dishonest in keeping your money

i have a number of Adobe products but will not support them anymore and spend lots of time warning others

DISHONEST!!!!!

Some of us do actually work in Acrobat all the time. I edit PDFs and work in them nearly every day all day long.  Maybe there should be a sliding scale and you get X # of free edits.

There is, actually, and it's an unlimited number. You can use the trial version of Acrobat for free as much as you'd like, for 7 days.

Beyond that you have to pay, of course. There's no way to count "number of edits". It's not a realistic metric of charging people.

you are almost certainly correct about how much you're will to pay.  and i'd venture to guess that you're also correct that 'most people don't have any use for PDF" if you're viewing your target market all people on planet earth.

but if you think adobe has priced their products out of the market and that they're selling insufficient numbers of products to stay in business, my guess is that you're wrong.

I doubt there's anyone in the world who uses a computer (or a smart-phone of some kind) on a regular basis who hasn't viewed a PDF file at least once.
