    Acrobat 8 installation on windows 7

      I am new to this forum and very confused.  I just bought a new computer using Windows 7.  How do I install Acrobat 8 standard -  my old computer was Vista.  Is there an upgrade?

          You can install it and you might be successful. If you have a new 64-bit machine, you may run into more problems. AA8 will likely need to run as a 32-bit process. You will also need to be sure you apply all updates to get things close to working properly. Several folks have been successful with AA8 on 32-bit Win7 and there have been reports of success on a 64-bit system. However, a lot may depend on the specific system configuration and all that can be said is to try it. With AA8, you can also upgrade to AA X for about 1/2 the cost of the new version.
