Adobe Acrobat lets you convert any document--including entire Web sites--into an Adobe PDF file, keeping the document's original appearance preserved, then distribute the document for viewing and printing on any system. In addition, powerful markup tools make electronic review easy, allowing you to collaborate quickly and efficiently. "Overall, Acrobat 4.0 merits a standing ovation." --Luis Camus, PC World,May 1999. Adobe has heralded Acrobat and PDF as the wave of the future ever since their original release, but a major revision has been slow coming. To date, PDFs have been used mainly for passing documents on the Web and presenting user manuals in software packages in lieu of printed copies. But PDF has also gained ground in the digital prepress environment. With the advent of Adobe Acrobat 4.0 and its increased development and capacity in prepress handling functions, PDF has become a workhorse in the digital print production flow. Version 4.0 comes packed with improvements and enhanced capabilities, as Adobe is determined to solidify PDF as the solution in prepress environments. Acrobat 4.0 simplifies PDF creation, expands annotation tools, and adds color management and new font-handling capabilities. Also, you now have the ability to make changes directly to both images and text in your PDF documents. To simplify PDF creation, Adobe Acrobat 4.0 allows drag-and-drop or print-from-file functions and comes with three levels of optimization. Screen Optimization is for any document intended for onscreen viewing, especially on the Web. It downsamples all of your images to 72 dpi and converts them to RGB, resulting in more-compact and faster-loading files. The Print Optimized choice is for producing PDF files to output to laser or inkjet printers and digital copiers. The Press Optimi-zation feature creates files for your service bureau or prepress facility - files that end up as professionally printed documents.
