Highlights   Contents   Errata
small image of book coverIn its latest release, Adobe Acrobat gives users even more control over their documents with new and enhanced features for collaboration, document management, and productivity. Everyone uses the PDF format--from government workers to engineers to manufactures to lawyers, and more—and this is the first book of its kind to address this huge variety of professions through case studies and real-world examples. There is no better guide to the latest features in Acrobat for those looking to step up their Acrobat proficiency and lead the charge on simplifying their own or their company's workflow, communications, and document management.

Overview of the Book

Each case study presents Acrobat features and tools in a generalized way so that anyone can apply the instruction to his or her own situation. For example, readers will learn how a real estate company uses Acrobat for creating online content and using password security, they'll see how an interior design firm works with technical drawings using Acrobat tools, and they'll create forms and learn how a manufacturer distributes and manages data.  Each scenario is taken a step further with source files, examples, and additional case studies made available through the author's Web site.
