I subscribe to Adobe's Creative Cloud service for several products
that are not included in the TechComm Suite. Occasionally, I let the
Creative Cloud updater do its thing, but I keep an eye on it.
Apparently I was distracted this time or something, but when I
allowed it to update all, it completely UNINSTALLED my Acrobat XI
program and installed its new Acrobat DC. There was no warning, no
request for permission. I just lost my Acrobat XI installation and
all of its plug-ins and was presented with the rather bizarre,
icon-filled screen for Acrobat DC.
Since I am right in the middle of my semi-annual nail-biting project,
I panicked. I uninstalled Acrobat DC, located my install file for
TechComm Suite 5, and reinstalled Acrobat XI. Miraculously, all of my
plug-ins and most of my preferred settings were intact. But I lost a
couple hours of billable time tending to a problem that Adobe
created, not to mention nearly having a heart-attack.
So CC subscribers, be careful. Your Acrobat license that came as part
of TCS is vulnerable to attack by Adobe's Acrobat DC. As for Adobe,
shame on you.
