Adobe® Acrobat® resources plentiful

Date: March 3rd, 2008   No comments

I remember when all the Quark and Adobe programs came in a bookshelf collapsing volume set. Such was the time. Thank goodness times moved online. It seems a common habit recently (i admit to it as well) to Google for answers to sticky points that would have otherwise been learned early on by spending at minimum a half day consuming the material provided by Adobe on their website, on tutorials, or in the excellent help systems included in the program. Time is not on our side if you need to get work done. Look at Adobe.com, they have at least nine major applications , a couple of languages and Air. At what point do you stop learning and start producing? We all have different levels of know-how and maturity in an application. So, my point, you(and I) may never feel comfortable enough to stand up and lecture on an application or technology, however, if you spend a little time going beyond the top 10 on Google you might learn enough to crank out the work faster.

Here is a review of the material on Adobe® Acrobat® Pro available with the program and online.

Start with the Acrobat splash screen



The application help system found in the help menu of the application. Adode has the most comprehensive bundled local searchable help systems - fast too.
