Acrobat X Pro is a full-featured application that enables the end user to convert
documents into PDF (Portable Document Format) documents. PDF documents can
be read by anybody who has the free Adobe Reader installed on his or her computer.
Many people who own Acrobat don’t utilize many of the incredible features the
application has available. My goal for this book is to make Acrobat X Pro more
accessible for everyone who uses the application and to explore the powerful features
that enable the end user to convert vanilla PDFs into interactive forms, multimedia
presentations, and much more.
This book covers features of Acrobat X Pro and is divided into three parts. Part I is
an introduction to Acrobat that discusses the new features of Acrobat X Pro, explores
the workspace, and shows you how to navigate a PDF document. Part II shows you
how to convert Microsoft Office documents, paper documents, and web pages to
PDF files. This part of the book also shows you how to add interactive elements to
PDF documents and create navigation for PDF documents. Part III shows you how
to edit PDF documents, review and mark up PDF documents, add security to PDF
documents, create PDF forms, and add multimedia to PDF documents.
