How to purchase Adobe Acrobat Pro without subscription.

Community Beginner ,
Oct 20, 2020 Oct 20, 2020

I would like to purchase the software (a perpetual license) without a subscription.  I am unable to see the option on the Adobe website.  I would be happy with Adobe Acrobat Pro XI but that is no longer available and supported.  Does anyone have suggestions?

Hi,

 

I hope you are doing well.

 

You can purchase Acrobat Pro 2020 and Acrobat Standard 2020 by contacting your Adobe Authorized Reseller.

 

If you would like the most updated non-subscription version of Acrobat, Acrobat Classic desktop software provides three years of paid access to Acrobat desktop and is available as a one-time, upfront purchase. Learn more at Adobe Acrobat Classic FAQ.

 

I hope this helps.

 

Thanks,

Anand Sri.

I just installed this on a W10 machine--UG from 2017 Pro.  It reaked havoc on my Adobe products.  Requires login even though perpetual and reset license information on all.  I have been using Adobe products since they first came out.  2017 is my last version of this product.  I am going to try a product designed for individuals not interested in subscriptions.  Terrible support.

The way Adobe handles their sales is exteremly confusing. I'm cancelling my subscription for the sheer fact that I can't simply access the one product I want, without the CC bloat... awful UX!

Cant afford that price for the pro or standard version. I dont really want to use pirate versions but dont see I have much option. I would be prepared to pay up to 200 Euros but not 600 Euros!!!!

Beware buying lifetime subscriptions! Do you research, big push for subscriptions only.

Hi all,

Is there still a Permanent License offered in the US for Adobe Acrobat PDF (which version? Pro? Standard? others? and prices? Links?) in 2024?

 

Thank you in advance for any suggestions...

 

Best,

 

Serg.

I can still see it, as Adobe Acrobat Classic (as of 10 January 2025):

Here is described the difference between the Continuous or Classic track:

I get the following price for my country (Slovenia):
670 € + tax/VAT.
