Adobe recently announced that Photoshop, Lightroom, Adobe Express, Adobe Firefly, and Adobe Acrobat are now available to run on ARM, however I can't seem to find the download for Acrobat. Is the ARM version just included in the 64-bit installer? What mode is it running in? ARM64EC or fully native? The latest support article is from 2021 and still shows it runs under emulation mode, which means a lot of features are not working (Adobe Acrobat and Acrobat Reader ARM processor support on Windows) correctly.
Release was here: Adobe on X: "Together with @Microsoft, we're excited to announce that your favorite Adobe apps are c...

I'm super curious about this too! Did you ever get a response from Adobe?

@vanqtt kind of - the only version that works on Windows ARM right now is the 32-bit version of Acrobat (which is kind of pathetic), and it's running emulation not ARM64EC or native. I've received no answer if/when a native version is coming 😞

Hi,
Thanks for posting your concerns.
Currently, Acrobat 32-bit version is supported on Windows ARM devices ( in emulation mode ). Native ARM support is not yet available on Windows.

I've installed the latest x64 version and the emulation is working fine with that too. But yes, a native ARM version would be nice...

This needs a fix ASAP. Just bought the latest Surface Laptop (gen 7) and no support for Adobe acrobat as it's running ARM64. So frustrating.
ADOBE..... When can we expect a fix?

I am also waiting for the ARM version of Acrobat

Acrobat 32 Bit version does not really work on ARM machines. I already installed it twice, because after a few days it stops working and does not even start. Now I have the same issue once again.

I'm completely miffed - it's been 5 years and Microsoft are still making ARM machines so I thought Adobe as a "partner" would just pony up with an ARM version already. Not having ARM compatibility for a key application like Acrobat is likely stunting Microsoft's ability to get other software makers to write ARM versions of their apps. This is the direction Microsoft would like to go - let's do this already please. There will be plenty of users.
