Overall Satisfaction with Adobe Acrobat

Adobe Acrobat is the preferred file type for delivery of files to production professionals in the print industry. Some of my classroom assignments deal with Print industry designs. Adobe Acrobat is also extensively used within the college to collect data, distribute signed documents to various college entities, and it is sometimes used to create on-screen (web optimized) assignments.

Pros

  • Creates press ready or web ready files that seamlessly embeds fonts and graphics.
  • A good software to create secure forms that can be password protected to collect customer data.
  • It contains a print industry preflight feature which I use to grade whether my students are optimizing the raster imagery properly for print media assignments coming from Adobe InDesign or Adobe Illustrator predominantly.

Cons

  • Could improve the integration with Adobe Creative Cloud design tools. Exports are very easy but perhaps improve the export/PDF document creation within palettes and tools within Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign.
  • Positive impact: standardization of, and preflight of, press-ready Print Media files
  • Allows groups to securely provide digital signatures from a group
  • Fields that capture customer input data in a shareable document that can be branded with an organization's corporate identity and brand
  • Integration with Other Systems
  • Ease of Use
I have experienced no negative impacts whatsoever. This may be a sign that Adobe Acrobat's security and compliance is working as advertised.

Yes

Did Adobe Acrobat live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Adobe Acrobat go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Adobe Acrobat again?

Yes

In my experience within the Print media, printing companies treated PDF files as the industry standard, most requested file type. Most of my PDF files were generated within Adobe InDesign as an export, but Adobe Acrobat could perhaps improve its interface allowing creatives to use Adobe Acrobat to generate the PDFs with more user control over resolution optimization, flattening of transparency, etc.
