If you have a subscription to Acrobat then all you have to do is log in to that account in Reader DC and it will automatically transform into Acrobat (assuming you have the latest version of it).

The difference between the two is that Reader can only display PDF files (as well as perform basic tasks such as fill in form fields, add comments, etc.), while Acrobat is capable of creating and editing them.

PS. I removed your email address from the question so you don't get contacted by scammers.
