    Acrobat X and XI side-by-side

    Syrax12 Community Member

      Is it possible to install Acrobat XI Pro (Creative Cloud version) and Acrobat X Pro (downloaded installer) together? Reason being, I don't want to lose Livecycle Designer, which happened previously when I installed Acrobat XI Pro.

          I am not sure of the options when you use the CC install process. For the individual install you simply chose the ignore at the bottom of the screen. You may want to back up your system prior to doing the install so if anything does not go correctly, you can simply backup.

          Please be aware that you will likely run into some issues with the combination, but as long as AA XI is installed last, it should take over the PDF functionality. However, this should leave Designer in place. I would recommend that future forms be done in AA XI with AcroForms or with Forms Central (though I prefer Acrobat directly), unless you have dynamic fields or such that actually require designer. You might want to consider moving forms over (bit of work) as you get a chance. In the meantime, I do understand the desire to keep AA X due to Designer. I am glad you caught this before you did the install.
