- Scenario
- Attempting to convert Word documents to PDF on a mobile device using a previously purchased subscription plan.

Ensure you have access to the email account used for your purchase and know your Adobe ID login credentials before attempting to verify or restore your subscription.
Verify Your Exact Subscription Type via Email
Check your purchase confirmation to see if you actually subscribed to 'Export PDF' rather than 'PDF Pack', as the conversion features available differ between the two.
Many users accidentally purchase 'Export PDF', which primarily converts PDFs to Word or Excel, instead of 'PDF Pack', which is required for converting Word documents into PDFs.
Access the email inbox associated with your Adobe ID account.
Search your inbox for an email with the subject line 'Thanks for your purchase' from Adobe Systems Incorporated.
Review the order details inside the email to confirm if your active plan is listed as 'PDF Pack' or 'Export PDF'.
Sign Out and Sign Back In
Refresh your mobile app's connection to the subscription server to restore your purchase recognition.
Contact Support for Verification or Refund
If your subscription is correct but still fails to recognize your active plan, professional support is required.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Export PDF and PDF Pack?
Export PDF mainly allows converting existing PDF files into editable Word or Excel formats. PDF Pack is a more comprehensive service that includes converting documents like Word to PDF, combining files, and sending documents for signature.
Why does my mobile app ask me to subscribe again?
The app may have lost its connection to your Adobe ID, or you might be logged in with a different email address than the one used for the purchase. Signing out and signing back in with the correct email usually resolves this issue.
Can I restore my mobile PDF subscription purchase?
Yes, within the mobile app's subscription or profile settings, you can often find a 'Restore Purchases' button. Tapping this forces the app to sync with your app store account to recognize valid active subscriptions.
