Acrobat Versions

Have you looked at the Acrobat [url=http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/matrix.php]Product comparison[/url]?

Thanks. It appears that 9 Standard will do the trick.
Kindest Regards

I'm new at using Acrobat. My main focus first will be to create fill in forms for e-documents. Have verson 5. Does it work with Office 2007 Professional and Adobe Photoshop 6? And if there are problems, what do you recommend? Update to version 8 or 9? Would rather save the money, but if problems start at the gate, willing to update. If so, can I jump from version 5 to 8 or 9 without a problem? Thanks for any help you can offer.

What OS are you using?

Acrobat 5 obviously wasn't tested or designed for Office 2007. Assuming your machine meets the installation requirements, Acrobat 9 is the way to go. The upgrade price is a bargain.

I have Window XP. I guess I do need to just install the version 5, then immediately upgrade to version 9. I just wonder if I can update to 9 from the verson 5 successfully. I would hope so. thanks for your input.

You will want to check with Adobe to make sure that you can upgrade from 5 to 9. I can't find definitive information regarding this. If you can upgrade, you would not need to install version 5 first, so don't try.

Found out from Adobe can't upgrade from 5. The only options I have is to buy the Acrobat Standard or Professional. the cost is high for both. But will probably buy the Standard. Unless you have some advice on that. Thanks.

It really depends on what you need to do. Acrobat Pro includes LiveCycle Designer, but if you have no need to create dynamic XFA forms, you can get by without it. Acrobat Standard includes the various forms tools and allows you to set usage rights, but not the Digital Signature usage right.
