I would like to purchase the software (a perpetual license) without a subscription.  I am unable to see the option on the Adobe website.  I would be happy with Adobe Acrobat Pro XI but that is no longer available and supported.  Does anyone have suggestions?

Hi,

 

I hope you are doing well.

 

You can purchase Acrobat Pro 2020 and Acrobat Standard 2020 by contacting your Adobe Authorized Reseller.

 

If you would like the most updated non-subscription version of Acrobat, Acrobat Classic desktop software provides three years of paid access to Acrobat desktop and is available as a one-time, upfront purchase. Learn more at Adobe Acrobat Classic FAQ.

 

I hope this helps.

 

Thanks,

Anand Sri.

You must be joking! $449?

No wonder piracy is a problem, especially when special offer of Ashampoo goes for $11.

You can get Adobe Acrobat Pro 2020 (standalone price - not a subscription) for $259 on Lenovo's website. I have ordered three for employees and they work fabulously. Unfortunately, we need Pro and its capabilities in our business. With that said, we have not found any pdf software that compares to what Adobe Acrobat Pro can do. Believe me, we have looked and bought with only great disappointment in the end. IMO, competitors don't compare to the OG at least not in real world applications.
