Go the Adobe home page. From the menu bar, pull down the Downloads menu and
choose Updates. In the Product selection box on the Product updates page,
select Acrobat-Windows.
If you are starting with a fresh install of Acrobat 8.0 (from the CD), to get
to a fully updated state you will need to download and apply the following
updates in order:
- Adobe Acrobat 8.1 Professional and Standard update - multiple languages
(6/14/2007)
- Adobe Acrobat 8.1.1 Professional and Standard update - multiple languages
(10/22/2007)
- Adobe Acrobat 8.1.2 Professional and Standard update - multiple languages
(2/6/2008)
- Adobe Acrobat 8.1.3 Professional, Standard, and 3D update - multiple
languages (11/4/2008)
- Adobe Acrobat 8.1.6 Professional and Standard Update - Multiple Languages
(6/9/2009) [the 8.1.6 can be applied to any version from 8.1.3 to 8.1.5, so you
can skip the 8.1.4 and 8.1.5 updates]
- Adobe Acrobat 8.1.7 Professional and Standard Update - Multiple Languages
(10/13/2009)
- Adobe Acrobat 8.2 Professional and Standard Update - Multiple Languages
(1/12/2010)
- Adobe Acrobat 8.2.2 Professional and Standard update - multiple languages
(4/13/2010) [the 8.2.2 update can be installed on 8.2 or 8.2.1 so you can skip
the 8.2.1 update]
Adobe is notorious for doing only incremental updates so that the automatic
update tool will work properly. But this is also why the Updater isn't working
for you--when it queries the Adobe website, it will find that the latest
version is 8.2.2 and that to update to that version you must alreayd have
either 8.2 or 8.2.1 installed rather than the base 8.0 release.
Note that the majority of the point release updates are described as being
security-related rather than dealing with real functionality. But in roder to
get to the functional update you need, you've got to wade through all the
intremediate incremental updates. Isn't it fun dealing with 3-year-old software?
