Adobe Acrobat PDF Licences

The request was successful.

Dear Midlothian Council,

As part of my research project could you please inform me if you use the Adobe Acrobat PDF editing software within the council, and if so how many licences do you subscribe to and what is your annual spend on this software.
It would also be beneficial to know who is responsible for purchasing licences of Adobe Acrobat PDF.

Yours faithfully,

Malcolm Young
