I have to say that, despite the statement "Is Acrobat 2020 64-bit compliant?
Yes, Acrobat runs as a 64-bit application. " I am not convinced at all, I think a mistake has been made. Because it then links to the system requirements, which are not at all relevant, and just confirm it runs on a 64-bit system.

The thing is, 64-bit support was a new feature in 2022, and Acrobat 2020 is frozen with the features of Acrobat towards the end of 2019. So, why would there be 64-bit support. (I have more specific reasons: there are no 64-bit updates either).

BUT... big question... why would you care? 64-bit Acrobat will not be faster, will not be more reliable, and will not integrate with more apps and systems. ("Faster" and "more reliable" are convenient untruths used by marketing departments who have no clue about the technical isssues). So I see no reason to be concerned that there is only 32-bit support. I would be much more concerned that Acrobat 2020 reaches end of life in January 2025, and there is no sign of a follow-up product. I suspect that to get support we'll all need to go subscription (but I have no inside information).

Well, personally I do care because Adobe markets this as a 64-bit application but it isn't

Where does it market Acrobat 2020 as a 64 bits application?

As @Test Screen Name says, it is not relevant, as there is absolutely no advantage to having this to be a 64 bits application, as long as 32 bits applications are running on your OS.

 

As it runs on modern macOS systems, and macOS did scrap 32 bits support, at least the macOS version is 64 bits.
