Case Study: Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College achieves campus-wide PDF access, accessibility compliance, and cost savings with Foxit Software

How CMCC Replaced Acrobat and Streamlined PDF Workflows Across Campus

Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College (CMCC), a specialized not-for-profit chiropractic school in Ontario with about 800 students and 200–250 staff, faced rising Adobe Acrobat costs and a fragmented licensing model as departments bought their own plans. IT needed a scalable, accessible, and Microsoft-friendly PDF solution that met AODA/WCAG requirements, simplified procurement and training, and supported common document workflows like form filling and signing.

CMCC selected Foxit PDF Editor for its comparable features, straightforward licensing, Microsoft 365 single sign‑on, accessibility tools, and familiar ribbon UI. Deployed via group policy as the default PDF app, Foxit let IT consolidate licenses, double the number of full editors (~50 to ~100) while lowering costs, reduce support overhead, ensure cross‑platform consistency, and add AI-enabled document interaction with plans for further integrations.
