Overall Satisfaction with Adobe Acrobat DC

In my current role, we work with large PDF documents that often need to be edited, organized, and submitted to various government agencies. Creating these files is a large task, and Adobe Acrobat DC allows this to be considerably easier. Adobe Acrobat DC offers almost all tools I can think of that allow important PDFs to be utilized and meet specific conditions required by the receiving end.
  • Combining PDFs
  • Organizing combined PDFs
  • Bookmarking documents
  • Large documents tend to move much slower when editing
  • More simple way to compress PDFs to smaller sizes
  • Recognize text tool often leads to shut down of large documents or moves very slow
  • Text recognition
  • Organizing pages
  • Page numbering
  • Increased productivity for regulatory submissions
  • Efficiency in teaching others to use the program due to simplicity
Adobe Acrobat DC works the same across all platforms I have tried it on. The ability to view documents on smartphones is also a plus.
My company works with innovative health technology and provides a large amount of design information to external agencies for regulatory purposes. For this reason, locked documents or un-editable documents are often required, and it must be ensured these documents remain safe within the company. For this reason, it's important to know that Adobe Acrobat DC software places emphasis on the safety of these documents and information.
Adobe Acrobat DC is the most user-friendly PDF platform I have used. Compared to other platforms where the tools to edit and organize a PDF will still be there, Adobe Acrobat DC offers a graphical user interface that is very simple and easy to understand. The icons used for the tools are easily understandable, and the interface allows for visual commands that are more understandable to the user. For example, you can click and drag a page around in the file and place it in a different location. In other platforms I've used, you can only move the page a certain number of page numbers (up or down within the document) by determining the number of spaces you want to move it.

Adobe Acrobat DC is the best platform I have used for handling large quantities of PDF documents. In regulatory situations, many government agencies request large PDF documents organized in specific ways, bookmarked accordingly, with readable text and page numbers. The tools Adobe Acrobat DC offers allow this to all be performed under one software in a very user-friendly manner. While I haven't found a solution to this yet, I've found working with certain extremely large PDFs in Adobe Acrobat DC causes trouble when trying to save or edit the document.
