Course Description

Everybody knows about PDF, right? It’s a file you print. If that’s all you’ve seen Acrobat do, you’re in for a huge surprise! In this course, you’ll discover how to bring together a wide range of content from dozens of programs that you can reuse and customize in Acrobat 9 Pro. Need to change some text? No problem. Start a new file? That’s easy. Add a page from this file, and an image from that file? Not a big deal.

Bringing together content is just the beginning. You’ll work with many features like backgrounds and bookmarks to help unify your documents and add navigation to guide your users. You’ll see how to protect your work using password security. For the grand finale, you’ll discover how to wrap a set of PDF files (and other documents, too) into a PDF Portfolio, complete with a Flash interface and display features.

Have you ever sent a document to a few people for feedback? And then had to wait for replies, send reminders, and maybe miss a deadline? If so, you’ll be amazed at how the collaboration tools in Acrobat help to conduct, control, and manage that process using a review. You’ll even learn about working in real-time using a chat window in Acrobat 9 Pro or online using a free Web conferencing room.

How about using the artificial intelligence built into Acrobat 9 Pro to automatically find and configure fields on a page to convert to a form? Then using form tracking to send your form to others to fill in and send back to you, collect the data automatically, and zero in on results using filters and sorts? You can even send the results to a spreadsheet if you like!

Throughout the lessons you’ll see why Adobe Acrobat has become the best-selling Adobe software of all time. The course includes dozens of files for you to use to construct real-life Acrobat PDF files. Each lesson starts with a partially complete project, or the files you’ll need to construct the project. To troubleshoot or check your work, some lessons include a finished project file, too.

You won’t find instructions that show you how to produce meaningless exercises. Instead, each lesson works with an important Acrobat 9 Pro feature or process. Along with guidance for using the features, you’ll learn how to use the program for your own work and communication needs.
