What do you mean by “write”? Add new pages? Merge documents? Add comments? Fill in forms? Other?

The Acrobat SDK is free and allows you to write software to open a PDF, fill in form fields, save and close; but you must buy Acrobat for each user. Is this for server use though? Acrobat not suitable for that.

Here is the full scenario:  I need to write an Access app that will allow an administrator to partially fill in an existing PDF with data from Access.  The app would then allow her to email the PDF to a client, and the client would need to be able to type into the PDF from their keyboard, and return by email.  The developer would need the Acrobat SDK.  What version of Acrobat would each user need to be able to type into the PDF?  What version would the administrator need to be able to run the Access app?

Thanks.

The Admin needs Adobe Acrobat DC while the users will only need Adobe Acrobat Reader.
