How to Install Adobe Acrobat Pro DC using Creative Cloud

Follow the instructions below to download & install the Adobe Creative Cloud application which will help you install Acrobat Pro and automatically keep it up to date. These instructions are based off OIT's here.

Click the following link to go to the OnTheHub license portal where you can request the Adobe Acrobat Pro license:

    2. You will then be prompted to sign in with your UCInetID and password.
    3. When you return to the Kivuto Cloud web store, select the shopping cart icon in the top right (there should be a (1) next to it).
    4. Select the “Check Out” button to complete your order.
    5. On the Order Confirmation page, select the “Click here to get started” link and follow the instructions (essentially you will be instructed to go to another web page to start the downloads & activation process). You'll also receive an email shortly with these same instructions.

2. Sign in to Adobe's website

Go to https://creativecloud.adobe.com and log in with your UCI email address in the format UCInetID@uci.edu, then select Continue.

3. Choose the type of Adobe Account

When prompted, select “Company or School Account”.

Otherwise, you should use the search bar at the top to look for “acrobat dc” and click on the search result “Acrobat DC (Desktop)
