Adobe Acrobat allows users to create, view, manipulate, print, edit, and manage files in Portable Document Format (PDF files) which are then easily shareable across a wide range of devices. Whether it is page proofs from Adobe InDesign, a training manual from Adobe RoboHelp, a Microsoft PowerPoint deck, or a Microsoft Word document, if you have material that needs to be reviewed by multiple people in a short amount of time, Adobe Acrobat’s editing tools can help. This class is fully interactive, as you will be able to speak with and hear from the instructor and other students as you work in real time to complete activities within the software.
Note: While not a requirement, some students find it helpful to attend this class using two computer monitors. This will allow for one screen to always display the instructor's screen, and the other for you to use as you follow along with the instructor.
