Beneath the top-level menu, you’ll see only a few additional icons (by contrast, Acrobat 9 presented nine icons below the menu bar). Now you’ll see only File, Edit, View, Window, and Help menus across the top of the screen that’s half as many menus as in Acrobat 9, which also placed lengthy drop-downs under each one. Adobe says that users will be able to import them when the application ships but you’ll have to either use an external application to play them, or convert them to Flash format to make them play inside Acrobat X.Īcrobat X Pro’s greatly revised interface makes portfolios, and even simpler documents, much easier to assemble and to share, too. I couldn’t get Acrobat X to import Windows Media videos, though. PDF portfolios are greatly improved in Acrobat X, because you can import live Web content into a portfolio–including streaming video (for example, YouTube content)–and even log in to a Website from within Acrobat X. It’s very useful to be able to import files of many different types into a PDF portfolio–an electronic document that contains, for example, a Word document, images, PowerPoint presentations, and video files. PDF portfolios, introduced in the previous Acrobat version, remain the highlight of the program. But judging from the beta I tried of Adobe Acrobat X Pro ($449 when released in fourth quarter 2010), the latest iteration will be much more Web-aware, and it will be able to bring new life to formerly staid, static electronic documents.
You can use it to lock down electronic documents, create press-ready color pages, or produce form-laden documents that feed data to a database. Adobe Acrobat is a multitalented business application.
