About Adobe Acrobat
PDFs have revolutionised the way designers and computer operators communicate with printers, colleagues and other businesses. Acrobat's ability to preserve exact layouts with fonts intact and to also minimise file size is one reason why Acrobat and pdfs are used by virtually anyone who uses a computer. The one day course focuses on generating and repurposing PDFs suitable for either on-screen viewing, reproduction on a colour printer or taking direct to the printing press.
