How you can influence the future of Acrobat

Periodically, Adobe will do user studies so we can understand how customers are using Adobe and non-Adobe software at work or at home. As part of user research, we're always looking for good candidates with whom to speak. For information about general Adobe research, you can check out our Adobe User Research page. You can also follow Adobe User Research on Twitter at @adobe_research.

For Acrobat, we are currently recruiting for two user research sessions, in the areas of Forms and PDF Portfolios.

  • Forms - If you need to create and distribute forms or surveys as part of your job (whether you use Acrobat and PDF or whether you use another method), you can apply to participate in our Forms user research by filling in this questionnaire.
  • PDF Portfolios - If you've used Acrobat 9's PDF Portfolio feature, you can apply to participate in our PDF Portfolio user research by filling in this questionnaire.

If you're accepted to participate in either study, you will receive $150 in American Express gift checks.

We really hope you'll consider sharing your experiences with the Acrobat team so we can continue to make our software as useful as possible.

Thanks!

Dave Stromfeld, Product Manager
