No. DC is the subscription version only. It gets constant updates. 2000 was frozen in 1999 and just gets bug fixes. Also DC includes extra services.

So a 2020 perpetual version could have been purchased. (not 2000... we're old-school where I'm at, but not that bad)

Thanks for that info, I'm dealing with a corporate env so, as much as I'd like see the version numbers on all the installs, might be tricky.

How about one more question (just one, I promise, then I'll go away).... was 2020 perpetual sold as a device license or a user license, or was their a choice? Invoices received form our reseller, don't differentiate.

Thanks for your help!


You can easily find those numbers by going to Help - About Adobe Acrobat.

 

AFAIK, all perpetual licenses are for an individual user, not a device, although technically if you install it on a device it's accessible to all users on it. That might be breaking the EULA, though (I'm not a lawyer!).

The EULA file I found (here: https://www.adobe.com/legal/licenses-terms.html) was non-searchable (great job, Adobe!) so it's not easy to find the exact quote for this without going over the whole thing, unfortunately...
