Acrobat 8 was released earlier this year before the release of any of the Adobe CS3 packages.Īs I stated in the beginning, working with Acrobat 8 (I am only using the Professional version) is easy, especially if you are new to it.
The list of new features is so long that I'll just touch on a few. To look at the different features, click on 'List.' There are other Acrobat products with varying degrees of features. Some people might think that Acrobat 8 Professional is only necessary in a business environment, but if you are doing any work with sending documents, editing, commenting, etc. A lot has been added to Acrobat 8 making it much easier to use and a much fuller package. He has Acrobat 7 Professional, and I find myself telling him to look for this or that only to find that it is not in Acrobat 7. Since I have been working with a friend of mine who is putting out a newspaper, I have used Acrobat 8 Professional a lot recently. Of all the programs in the Adobe CS3 software packages, Acrobat 8 Professional is the one that is the easiest to use if you want to just use it in its bare bones form, ie., standard PDF creation.
