I got help when I needed it. . . I leaned on this book to help me punch out a PDF format of my book manuscript. Knowing Adobe products often equal advanced knowledge to get you where you want to be, I knew I'd need a straightforward reference book to get the job done. Between "How to Do Everything" and tips from the publishing website, I was able to turn in a polished PDF version of my manuscript to send to print in an afternoon's work. Considering I knew nothing about the software beforehand, I felt good about the outcome.
Adobe product? I suspect the writing of this book was contracted by Adobe. It is all praise and I don't believe that the product is without problems or shortcomings for the average user. The book is not what I had hoped for.
Saved me many hours! This book is wonderful, so many great tips. This book will unlock the power of Acrobat 8. I had a very large form to convert to a PDF form Using a tip from the book I saved hours of work! This book is great for beginners or as a refernce tool to features you may not use everyday.
