Adobe Acrobat DC 2019 is now shipping! If you hadn’t heard by now, “DC” stands for Document Cloud, which is Adobe’s set of integrated online services to help customers better manage critical documents. At the heart of Document Cloud is Acrobat DC – the industry standard for creating, sharing and editing PDFs – which was completely rearchitected for the initial DC 2015 milestone release several years ago. For more information, see: What Is the Document Cloud?
Acrobat continues as a desktop product in both Pro or Standard editions, and is available either via subscription or with a perpetual (one-time purchase) license. “Acrobat 2017” is the most recent perpetual desktop version of Acrobat – in other words, not the latest release. “Acrobat DC 2019” is the current subscription version of Acrobat. With Acrobat DC, ongoing updates are included so you always have the most recent version of Acrobat software with the newest product innovations and tools for desktop and mobile.
Note that this newly-upgraded desktop release of Acrobat Pro DC is also included as one of the many applications that all subscribers get with the complete (“All Apps”) Creative Cloud. |
