Up and Running with Acrobat X

Up and Running with Acrobat X

with Chad Chelius

 


Over the last decade the PDF has become increasingly popular in the business world as a means of sharing information, becoming so ubiquitous that often people find themselves using PDFs without really understanding what they are and how they work. In this workshop, author and trainer Chad Chelius explains the benefits of using the PDF file format, how to control the size of your PDFs, how to collaborate with other users on a PDF document, how to share and distribute PDF files in a variety of ways, and much more. The lessons focus on business use and the Microsoft Office applications as well as on the new features available in Acrobat X, but much of the material also applies to previous versions of Acrobat.
Topics include:
  • Customizing Acrobat X
  • Navigating and searching a PDF
  • Creating a PDF from the Microsoft Office applications
  • Creating a PDF from other applications
  • Creating a PDF from a scanner, web page, or file
  • Adding a watermark, header, or footer
  • Basic PDF editing
  • Combining multiple files into a single PDF
  • Collaborating and sharing
  • PDF security
  • Working with PDF forms
