How often does this happen to you?
You complete an important document just under the wire and e-mail it to your colleagues, but they can’t open
the file because they have a previous version of the software and they work on a different platform.
You spend hours putting together a confidential business plan with many charts and tables. You send it to your col-
leagues for review and comments, and when you get it back, you find that your charts and layout have been changed.
You distribute an eye-catching new brochure for comments. But when your colleagues open the electronic file,
text columns are askew, the logo has vanished, and computers have substituted Courier for the elegant font you
selected. Then, after you take the extra time to distribute paper copies, your colleagues return a hodgepodge of
paper cluttered with scrawled handwritten notes and stapled attachments.
Sound familiar?
Then you need Adobe Acrobat 5.0 software on your desktop.
The best way to share documents online
Adobe Acrobat 5.0 lets you convert any document to an Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) file.
Anyone with Acrobat Reader software can open your document across a broad range of hardware and software,
and it will look exactly as you intended—with layout, fonts, links, and images intact.
With Acrobat 5.0, you and your team can work smarter, save resources, and get to market faster. Colleagues can
quickly approve Adobe PDF files with e-signatures. Or they can add comments with electronic sticky notes,
highlight and strikethrough tools, and more—right from their Web browsers.
Enrich your business communications with Adobe Acrobat. Now you can create interactive forms that are easy
to fill in; people can save the information on their hard drives. Or repurpose the information in your Adobe
PDF files by saving them as Rich Text Format (RTF) files for editing in Microsoft Word. Password-protect your
Adobe PDF files to control access to the content. Then share final documents with everyone as compact, search-
able Adobe PDF files, in print or via e-mail, your network server, or the Web!
