Default Adobe Vs MS

I do not know why MS/word is not compatible 100% with Adobe. I would like to see a replacement from MS to Adobe. I have used WP years back and then settled for MS, but what's very disappointing that adobe is in the picture and its keep bopping up to read documents specially on the internet. I have bought adobe 8 years back and it supposed to still working but the sun of guns did get in my computer and asked for verifying a SW that is out of their support .. meaning we want your $$$ .. though, I just wanted to write her in the Word forum to let the support team understand the need for a compatible SW to help us all and to stay away from this crazy blood succors.


hopefully Bill gate still active and can do one more miracle :-).

This is NOT the support team.
It is a user-to-user support forum that is in no way connected to Microsoft Corporation.

There was, some years back, a big lawsuit between MS and Adobe.

There are a number of decent free pdf read/write programs. Current versions of Word read and write pdf documents, although not with the same sophistication and control offered by Acrobat.

Conversion between pdf and Word and back is asking for headaches if you want to edit.
Do all of your editing in Word format. Then save to pdf or print as pdf. If you need to make changes, return to the original Word document rather than converting from pdf.

Thanks for your replies!
I was not aware about big case between MS and Adobe.. thanks for letting me know about the new version of MS, I will try to get that or another .


I am aware about the read only SW that Adobe provides. Actually that what screwed up my old version. I had it on my computer as a separate version, but suddenly they used it to over write my existing good working Adobe.
I'm very disappointed as I owned that version for years. I will avoid adobe as much as I can at home and work from now on.

The more recent Adobe Acrobat Reader updates delete all older Adobe Acrobat products from your system - Adobe's not content with updating just the Reader. Maybe there's a compatibility issue between the more recent Adobe Acrobat Reader updates and the older Adobe Acrobat products, but the user is given little warning about the consequences of allowing the updates to proceed. Tough if utilities on your system automatically update the Adobe Acrobat Reader...
