Hello,

Im looking into deploying a new version of reader into our environment.

But im looking for a classic track, is there a 2024 version available of classic track? Or is this the Adobe Pro Classic being used as reader?

Currently we are using Reader 2020 MUI classic track. Which is still being updated but looking into upgrading.

Kind Regards,

Thomas

I found this:
Acrobat 64-bit for Windows Enterprise users

You can install the 2024 Classic track installer, then create the registry edits for READ-ONLY mode. the only difference is to replace DC in the registry path with 'Classic'. after the keys are in place, the program will not require a login, and will operate as 'Reader'. Pro features will not work unless you are logged in.

okay so i found this, Adobe - Distributie van Adobe Acrobat Reader

choose OS > MUI version > 64bit

is this the new way to go? This is a continous unfortunately. but im not going to give all my users the acrobat pro version while all buttons are still visible if not logged in. that will raise just too many questions...

Hi @thomas_9615,

I hope you are doing well. Thanks for reaching out.

You can download and deploy the Acrobat Classic 2024 and Acrobat Reader Classic 2020 for Enterprise Volume Distribution and Deploymnet using the Adobe Customization Wizard tool. See these articles for more information and the Downloadable files: https://adobe.ly/3XFOMDz, https://www.adobe.com/acrobat/pdf-reader/volume-distribution.html https://adobe.ly/47BshVb,
https://adobe.ly/3BhJPcN;

Also, you can deploy the Acrobat as Reader mode where non-licensed users can use it as Reader while users with valid licenses can sign in and use the paid features.

Let us know how it goes.

Thanks,
Anand Sri.

Hello,

Thanks for the quick reply! So you (Adobe) chose to provide Acrobat Classic as Reader 2024 classic track?

Acrobat Classic is basically an Acrobat Pro, and not a Reader 2024.

Hi @thomas_9615

Aplogize for the typo, it is Acrobat Reader Classic 2020 available for the deployment in the Enterprise environment. See these articles for the available latest version, and the deployment process: https://www.adobe.com/acrobat/pdf-reader/volume-distribution.html

https://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/ReleaseNotesDC/index.html#classic-track

Also, you can deploy the Acrobat as Reader mode where non-licensed users can use it as Reader while users with valid licenses can sign in and use the paid features.

Thanks,

Anand Sri.
