I am not using most of the 6 CC apps I am subscribed for; any alternative?

A few years ago I purchase a perpetual license to Adobe Photoshop Lightroom (I believe that the last version was 4), as well as an individual copy of Acrobat Reader (11.0.23), which had all the tools I required to edit, fill and sign, and convert PDFs. 2 years ago I was in effect forced into Acrobat Pro DC, with access to several apps (DC, XD, Rush, Bridge), and the 100 GB of Adobe Cloud Storage, for which I have no other use than editing, filling and signing, and convering PDFs on my desktop. If I want to use Lightroom, I have to buy -- forget the "perpetual" in perpetual license. This now is a subscription model, proced at $180 per annum.

I was simply lured into this because of my inattention? I am ready to forego Lightroom -- is there any alternative that doesn't overload my laptop, doesn't cost that much, and allows me to only process PDF documents, as described above?

In addition to what Nancy said about the Acrobat plans, here are the links to the Creative Cloud plans:

Note that there is an annual Photography plan that includes LR and only 20 GB of storage.

Also note that the PDF pack in combination with the free Reader works for some people, but if you need to edit your PDF, you need a paid version from Nancy’s links.

All you are really getting is Acrobat Pro. The other apps are available for free (in many cases very limited uses). So, this is the normal way to get Acrobat Pro, which is the tool you need.
