Yes you can install on you own computer at the company. It's ok if the computer belongs to work, it's ok if you use it for work.

The license agreement is the ONLY legal source. No comment, permission or explanation can change this. Lawyers like to argue over interpretation of course.

but, where in the license agreement can I find this statement? I read it but it was not clear.

Can you point me an official source where I can legally proof this?

Best regards.

Well, all commercial use is by a company. What use do you want to make?

I'll tell you some things you can and can't do. Maybe it will be a starting point. Remember, this license is a LEGAL CONTRACT and only a lawyer can give official advice; this is just my personal idea from other replies.

You CAN install Acrobat Reader on YOUR OWN computer and use it to read and print PDF files.

You CANNOT put Acrobat Reader on your web site.

You CANNOT sell Acrobat Reader.

If you look after the computers in a company (IT support) you CANNOT install Acrobat Reader for the OTHER PEOPLE in the company, unless you get an extra (free but important) license.

I want to help answer your question (within what is allowed under the law because I am not a lawyer) but you must explain what you mean by the completely vague "commercial use" phrase.

Can you use the software as a tool within your business? Yes of course. Anyone can use it.

What commercial use? The answer to all licensing questions is by definition in the EULA, but we may have a non-legal idea for you.
