Hi Heathern,

I understand the situation, as you want to install the Acrobat 8 and want the installer for the application.

You may refer to the similar issue discussed in the forum thread- Full install of Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard

Let us know if this works for you.

Regards,

Amal

those links are now inoperative.

if you're unaware of adobe's changed download policies read the last link in message 3.

I have already completed these steps, spoken with Adobe chat, and I was pointed here.  Acrobat 8 is not on the page or any of the links you reference.  I have my serial number and am ready to go when I get a download link.

if adobe support didn't give you a download link, no one here (ie, other users) can help you.

if support refused to give you a link it may be because of adobe's 5/2019 policy on downloads, https://prodesigntools.com/adobe-limits-software-downloads.html

acrobat 8 is not compatible with any newer os'es and is not secure.  that said, follow the steps here to install cs3, https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/activation-fails-cs3-acrobat-8.html

if that fails read this, https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2385900
