MORE INTUITIVE THAN VERSION 7 [Posted on 2007-06-24]
I have owned Acrobat since version 4 and have upgrade a few times. The last few times I went with the Standard version instead of the Pro version. This time I went with the Pro so I could do everything I wanted to do. I like the version 8 interface better than version 7 as it seems to be more intuitive to me. I am glad I upgraded.

Acrobat Pro 8 rocks!!! [Posted on 2007-07-17]
I upgraded from Version 6 to Version 8 Pro and love it. Adobe 8 has so many cool features.

Great software (from Amazon) [Posted on 2007-07-26]
For me, the indexing and cataloging feature alone was worth the price of this upgrade.

Thumbs up to Amazon, who were the only retailer from whom I was able to ascertain that this will upgrade from V5+ (i.e. 5, 6, 7 or 8 standard).

I sent e-mails to 2 of my other suppliers which were ignored. The software house was less than helpful. I called one major photographic retailer in NY to receive confirmation of their website info (and that of others) that it will only upgrade v.8 Standard.

Take it from me that it upgraded my v.7 Standard and the box indicates what Amazon stated - from V5+.

Congratulations, once again, to Amazon, for a superior shopping experience.

Essential Business Software [Posted on 2007-10-17]
My experience with Acrobat has mostly been limited to creating PDFs from WORD, EXCEL, and graphics software, mostly for purposes of distributing to others. With each upgrade since v.5.0, I've noticed it easier to do the job. I know people who use it as regularly as I use MS WORD and swear by it.

Just what I was looking for [Posted on 2007-11-09]
While it did annoy me to have to upgrade to the Pro product in order to get functions like form creation (that was part of Acrobat 5 standard). The upgrade process was seamless and I am still exploring some of the functions available to me now.

Adobe does play a bit coy with even acknowledging that there is a standard to pro upgrade product, but I have come to use the software a lot. I just wish the price was a little better.
