How do I download 'Reader DC' for iPad?

Participant ,
Jan 28, 2016 Jan 28, 2016

Help please!!!

I can't find it anywhere in App Store, only the old Reader app and it doesn't seem to do any of the new DC features. The Adobe says that Reader DC is a free app available for download now. Where is it? Am I stupid? Have I gone mad? Everyone else seems to be downloading it successfully. Have I been blacklisted by Adobe? Don't they love me anymore? Aaaaaggggghhhh.

I feel like I am being left out of the in-crowd here.

Hi Scotty,

For iOS, there is only one App and the App is called Adobe Acrobat Reader. Once you install that app, tap on the home button. Then tap “My Account” in  the left hand pane. Log in using the same account with which you purchased your Acrobat DC Pro Subscription. This will unlock capabilities like Edit PDF, Scan, and Organize Pages. Please note that this capability is only available to Acrobat subscribers, not to those who purchased a perpetual license.


I hope this helps!

Hi there

 

Hope you are doing well and thanks for reaching out.

 

It looks like you are trying to open a XFA dynamic file on your device. Such files have a compatibility issue on the mobile platform.

 

As suggested in the pop up, please try to open the PDF file on the Acrobat Reader desktop application and check.

 

Let us know how it goes.

What, by the way, are the "new DC features" you are looking for? DC is more of a version number than a set of features, but certainly there are pay-for features.
