About Adobe Acrobat Reader

Adobe Acrobat Reader DC is a cloud-based software designed to help businesses view, sign, and annotate PDF documents from desktops, browsers, or mobile devices. Using the fill & sign tool, administrators can automatically detect multiple fields across forms, add texts, symbols, or signatures, and store them in Adobe Document Cloud for future reference.

Using Adobe Acrobat Reader DC, enterprises can create customizable forms by adding various elements such as drop-down lists, barcodes, digital signature fields, list boxes, and more. Managers can utilize the drag-and-drop interface to add Adobe Sign fields in PDF documents and send completed forms to specific recipients via emails or internal servers such as SharePoint or network folders. The software also helps users integrate JavaScript language with multiple documents, enabling them to configure forms and connect it with several databases via Open Database Connection (ODBC).

Adobe Acrobat Reader DC allows businesses to edit PDF documents by highlighting, striking off, or underlining specific texts and adding comments or notes in the source file. Administrators can also convert and export PDF files in various formats including Word, Excel, or rich text format (RTF).

I love the overall experience of Adobe Acrobat because it is straightforward to share, and there are many useful functions as well.

Pros

I like how we can just copy and paste the PDF link and share it with colleagues. It has many useful editing features and sometimes if I am too lazy to re-export the pdf, I can just edit the pdf itself and do minor edits.

Cons

I am pretty sure there should be an option to change the colour of the comment icon, but it is very subtle to see in my opinion. When someone leaves a comment on the pdf, I click the comment to take me to the commented area, and I find it difficult to distinguish which area I'm looking at.
