4 out of 5 stars Great Service From Amazon   July 9, 2007

I ordered this and it was shipped here within a week. The product is as expected and installed ok after a bit of persuasion with Vista!


4 out of 5 stars Still a lot to learn   June 18, 2007

I purchased this upgrade from Pro V7 which started acting quirky and unstable. The Adobe user interface continues to be non-Windows conforming and requires a little study before 'getting it.' I spent a lot of time initially customizing the toolbars to put back the same features I commonly used in version 7. The status bar at the bottom of the window with navigation controls no longer exists and I had to customize the toolbar to show those buttons as well. The overall interface is cleaner and the toolbars are more configurable than before.

As with many office applications I expect to be using only 50% or less of the possible features offered in this package. I chose Pro instead of Standard mainly for the forms features which I've used previously. This version does a better job converting and merging multiple documents into a single PDF. It offers a feature to bind together various documents besides PDF format into a single file, much like discarded MS Office Binder of long ago.

I am very leery of installing Adobe products (I have two others) because my experience is that something usually goes wrong. This upgrade installation went well enough but it didn't pick up my default Acrobat settings from version 7. A recent auto update failed to install properly but finally worked itself after several re-boots. When this update finally completed a request to register the product appeared (of course long ago registered when originally instealled). As I said - quirky installations.



1 out of 5 stars MS Office 2007 v Acrobat 8 Professional   June 6, 2007
First, I think it is a rip-off that Acrobat 7.09 or Actobat 8.0 Professional is not compatible with MS Office 2007. I was informed it was necessary to upgrading to 8.0 Professional for it to work with MS Office Enterprise 2007, after doing the upgrade, it still does not work "as advertise'. Tech Support informs a patch to fix the issues is in the 'works' (right), in the interim 'just' print to the Adobe PDF printer as a work-around - what a mess. Another forced upgrade to 8.0 from 7.09 that still does not work. Sheesh


4 out of 5 stars Adobe could still improve   May 9, 2007

Something about the fonts....if a font isn't installed on your computer you can't properly edit?? I don't understand but will say this. I feel many improvements were made over earlier versions. I love the text attribute toolbar so you can change font size, color, alignment, etc. Look forward to learning more as I use it more.


1 out of 5 stars Unable to install 8, while version 7 works perfectly.   April 12, 2007

After 25 years of building PC, and installing software, beta testing software, I am unable, even with Adobe's technical support staff to install Acrobat Version 8. Software gets to the end of the install process and stalls. No combination of repair, uninstall, reinstall, registry cleaning, advice from THREE technical support staff after hours on the telephone can solve the problem. Using XP, with all the latest upgrades, defragging the drives, with 2 MB RAM, and a Adobe Tech support clean registry still fails to properly install the software.
