Hello Meenakshi,
No luck after reading the troubleshoot. Nor after sending email to the Customer Care Team (very poor response)
The scanner interface is greyed out scanning directly from Acrobat Pro DC (continuous subscription)
Scanner works using Printers software.

Would you mind sharing the screenshot of the email that you have received from AdobeIncCare@outlook.com?
Regarding the scanner issue, would you mind sharing a small video showing what happens when you try to use the Scanner to create PDF?
Please share the Acrobat Pro DC version currently installed on the mac.

The email adress must have been supplied in a comment that has been deleted. Please do not use AdobeIncCare@outlook.com
The emails are on a different computer that I will accesss tomorrow and reply again to you with screenshots.
FYI the correspondence was vague so that's why I didn't proceed.

Ah, the Adobe***@outlook.com guys. I heard from them too, and it turns out they were nothing but thieves, pretending to be Adobe. You were wise not to give them money because once they had your credit card, they could take much more.
So, what they said - that there was a perpetual license that fixes this - was just a lie to get you to pay. Nothing they told you was useful or true.
