How can I find an old version of ADOBE READER PDF ?

[sophies18710229]

helleo, I  am looking for an old version of Adobe Acrobat Reader, the most simple.

How and where can I find it please ?

I don't want Adode Acrobat Resader DC.

I have no use for correcting the documents inside.

I just want to put my Word Documents into a PDF with an old and free version without malware in it.

The website of Adobe does not allow to do it.

They only give the DC version of Adobe Acrobat Reader but it is too complex for me. 

Thalnk you.

The free software called at times Adobe Reader or Acrobat Reader has never made PDF files for free. Reader works with add-on subscription services to make a PDF. Old versions will not change this.

Adobe and Acrobat have always been free. I too don't know how to use this latest edition of Adobe Reader.

Adobe is a company and not free. Adobe Acrobat is also not free.

You can get older versions from here: Adobe Acrobat Reader DC Install for all versions

Or directly from here: ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/

Reader never made PDFs. If you had something like Reader that made PDFs you had Acrobat (paid for) or a subscription. Perhaps you still have it. Can you remember what you did to make a PDF (what menu or button or whatever, roughly)?

[sophies18710229]

When saving the Word document, I chose PDF.

But I have inbstalled ACROBAT DC and I ciuld not use it.

So I took it offr.

But by the same way, it took off my old version of Adobe PDF.

Il want to get my old verson back !

How can I do ? Where can I find It ?

The Adobe website only offers the new version DC that I can'y use.

HELP !!!

Thank you.

Saving a PDF in Word is just a part of Word (2007 and later). Nothing to do with any Adobe software. Makes a basic PDF, Acrobat Pro does better, but if you just want to do that, why not do it...? What are we missing.

By the way you say you downloaded Acrobat, but elsewhere you say you downloaded Reader (Acrobat Reader). Be very clear, these are different things. Acrobat you pay for.

ADOBE READER 11.0.08 is much faster then the new Adobe Acrobat DC.  ADOBE READER 11.0.08 works very well on Windows 10 and Windows 11. 

Uninstalled the Adobe Acrobat DC and get Adobe 11.0.08 ( the older version ) at https://get.adobe.com/reader/otherversions/?c=76342

1.  Select Operating system : Windows XP SP3 (even with Windows 10 or Windows 11)

2. Language: English

3. Version: Reader 11.0.08 English for Windows.

4.  While installing Adobe Reader 11.0.08, you will be asked to look for update: Select NO UPDATES.

5.  After installation, go to Windows 10/11 Default Apps and make Adobe Reader 11.0.08 default pdf.

6. Enjoy a faster computer!
