You have probably created documents using office productivity applications as well as technical applications (perhaps some specific to your field), and have shared those documents with others, such as colleagues, clients, and reviewers. You've most likely shared printed copies of your documents with others, and may have shared documents electronically be emailing them as well. Now you may need to share electronic versions of your documents with others in a format that will allow them to view, print, and even review the content even if they don't have the original software you used to create the file. In this course, you'll use Adobe Acrobat® 6.0 Professional to convert documents to PDF files, and will customize those PDF files for your needs and the needs of your audience.

Adobe Training Objective

You will create and modify PDF documents using Acrobat to organize and share your documents in a technical environment, as well as implement electronic document review workflows.

Adobe Training Prerequisites

Before taking this course, students should be familiar with the basic functions of their computer's operating system. Students should also have basic word processing skills, such as copying and pasting text, formatting text, and so on.

Delivery Method

Instructor led, group-paced, classroom-delivery learning model with structured hands-on activities.

Target Student

The target students for this course are persons working in the engineering field who are responsible for creating and distributing technical documents. Students typically have experience using engineering design, management, and office productivity applications, such as CAD applications, project management software, word processors and spreadsheets, but probably do not have experience using Acrobat.
