Adobe Acrobat Version - Standard vs. Pro

[kmwhitt]

Why do you make it so difficult to determine which version of Acrobat is installed?  I have had enough of Adobe and their overcomplication of things.  These tools are meant to make work and life easier.  I've been trying to establish if I have the Standard or Pro version for the last hour (if you still call them those names).  All I see is that it's a continuous version when I open "About".  Why can't Adobe simply state the version?  Would someone please give me a definitive answer on finding out what I'm paying for monthly?  While I'm posting, Adobe has become a bloated behemoth that constantly glitches.  When will the developers get their act together?  I'm seriously considering moving over to ABBYY Fineready - simply and straightforward with better features.

As of today, if it stays "Standard", it's "Standard". If it says "Reader", it's Reader. Otherwise, it's Pro.

And "Continuous" is the license model, meaning a subscription, as opposed to "Classic" which is a one-time purchase.

Hello @kmwhitt!

I hope you are doing well.

++Adding to what our community expert has already shared, here is he link with the comparison of the features of Acrobat Pro and Standard: https://www.adobe.com/acrobat/pricing/compare-versions.html

• The Continuous track refers to the subscription-based version that receives regular updates.

• The Classic track refers to the perpetual license/serial number version with less frequent updates.

To check the version details of the app, go to Menu > Help > About Adobe Acrobat, and check the details.
