What you want to look at is to see if you can do it via Group Policy
Software Installation which uses .msi packages to distribute authorized
software to users and computers. In such case the users do not need to be a
member of a privileged group. Offhand I don't know what Adobe offers related
to what you need but I would visit their website to check their support
section and search for Adobe Acrobat .msi. The links below may help. ---
