Acrobat for Life Sciences: August 2009 Archives

Travel budget? Not a problem!

I'll be racking up the frequent flyer miles on Adobe's Acrobat Forum Tour to bring you Acrobat 9 in Chicago, Columbus, Cincinnati, Seattle and San Francisco.

Yep, that means you can have a close personal experience with Rick Borstein and receive a three-hour demonstration of Adobe Acrobat 9.

Free breakfast included . . . what's not to like?

Oh, the features! See PDF Portfolios, forms, redaction, conversion tips, export to Word and Excel, security and a lot more.
