The Acrobat Reader and the Acrobat Pro have a "standard" version and the new
DC version.  The DC is intended for  use with the cloud.  If you visit the
Adobe web site and read their Voluntary Accessibility Template you will get
a good idea of what it is about and its accessibility for us screen reader
users.

Subject: [VICUG-L] Adobe Reader Vs. Adobe Reader DC

Hi all,

What's the difference between Adobe's two free PDF readers?

Adobe has a new product called Adobe Reader DC (or something like that). 
A couple of days ago, I read the website for it and for the plain old Adobe
Reader we're used to. Off hand the difference I remember is that the new
product lets you fill out forms and save them. It also has a subscription
option for you to create and edit your own PDFs.

In practical terms, however, what's the difference? I'm wondering which
version to install on my new laptop. Are they basically the same app only
the new one gives you a way to ease into a subscription model?

Thanks for any wisdom from those of you who have tried them both.

ciao
