Acrobat 8 Pro introduces some innovative new features. For example, the new Combine Files wizard makes it easy to arrange a set of files and merge them into a single PDF document or assemble them into a PDF package (a container for multiple documents). A PDF package preserves the security settings of the original files, such as digital signatures, and can protect its contents with additional security features.

Acrobat 8 Pro can also create a blank-page document, and it gives you some basic tools to add text to it right away.

This new version brings collaboration to a new level with a feature called Shared Reviews. A shared review relies on a shared folder, which functions as a central hub for the exchange of annotations between team members. A small helper process runs in the background to retrieve new comments and deliver updated versions of files. Best of all, it also works when Acrobat 8 Pro is not running.

A PDF file that is part of a shared review carries the network address of the shared folder and a unique review ID, which allows your comments to reach the shared folder regardless of your location. That means you can distribute copies of the file via e-mail, a document management system, a network shared folder, or the Web.
