I have the free Adobe Reader DC -- but I want to be able to do basic editing to a PDF doc.

What kind of student discounts are available and how to I get it?

Thanks! Lara.

Hi Lara5272!,

I assume you are referring to the Adobe Acrobat DC, because Adobe Reader DC is a free application of Adobe for which you do not have to subscribe.

You can get Adobe Acrobat DC as subscription base service or a standalone version (perpetual/license).

You may refer to the plan and pricing to see the available offer for the student & teachers

This is one almost useless program, as it won't easily interface with other applications such as, printers, other MAC based programs, etc. In fact, there isn't even an easy means to exit the program. Was this aboration created by Millennial's or what?

try67,

 

In plain English, the Adobe Reader DC is not user-friendly, does not interface easily with peripherals and allows for unwanted connections (with phantom peripherals) with MAC based operating systems. I use Adobe Reader DC on both Windows and MAC operating systems. Adobe Reader DC software for the MAC simply sucks! Why should a user have to "login" to his Adobe Reader DC in order to open a PDF file.....duh? Leave it up to today's "nitwit" computer software writer's to take a simple process and make it confusing/difficult to use for the sake of change.......again, duh?

You would need the full version of Acrobat. You'd "probably" get around 60% off. Here is more info on how and where to make student purchases.
