Adobe Acrobat Overview
Adobe Acrobat is a family of application software and Web services developed by Adobe Systems to view, create, manipulate, print, and manage files in Portable Document Format (PDF). The family comprises Acrobat Reader and Adobe Acrobat Professional. The freeware Acrobat Reader can view, print, sign, and annotate PDF files. Acrobat Professional, available for Microsoft Windows and macOS only, can also create, edit, convert, encrypt, export, and publish PDF files.
The majority of NRAO users have Acrobat Reader installed on their computers. Users that have a need for Acrobat Professional should contact the Help Desk to arrange the installation with their site system administrators. Note that an appropriate account number will need to be provided for the annual cost of the subscription.
Please refer to the pages on the left for further information on Acrobat Reader and Acrobat Professional functionality.
