Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional software empowers educators,students and businessmen to reliably create, combine, share, and control media-rich Adobe PDF documents!

Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional software empowers educators,students amd businessmen to reliably create, combine, share, and control media-rich Adobe PDF documents for easy, more secure communication, collaboration, and timesaving electronic workflows.



I'll state this upfront: I find many of the changes in Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional inexplicable. Although the entire package is fairly pricey ($499; upgrade $159) and was traditionally aimed at high-level users and print production folks, this version's "improvements' are aimed at, um, well, I couldn't really identify a target audience. Some of the changes may confuse and frustrate long-time print-production professionals while adding features that most businesses may not need.
