I've used Acrobat since Version 5, but hadn't looked into all the features of the software. After upgrading to Version 7, I decided to maximize my software investment and read up a bit. Being familiar with the "How to Do Everything" titles, and hearing good reviews about the previous version of this book, this book was the obvious choice for me!

In just the first few chapters, it's possible to get a firm grasp of what one can do with the software. The author does an excellent job of explaining Acrobat's features. It's now simple to create sophisticated PDF documents that enable me to share information with my clients more easily than before. Also, adding interactivity to my PDF documents makes it easier for my audience to quickly navigate to the desired part of the document.

If you're new to Acrobat, or looking to increase your knowledge, this is the book for you. It's easy to read, and the information is presented in a logical manner.

Instead of buying this book you can do the following:

1. Open up Adobe Acrobat on your computer

2. Choose Help from the menu_bar at the top of the screen

3. Select 'Complete Acrobat 7.0 Help...'

4. Look up what you need to know---as this book is no more useful than the Adobe Help Screen

Now wasn't that much easier, more informative, and a lot cheaper? Notice that, unlike most 5 star reviewers, I do not work for a publisher.

If you actually want to learn something instead of wasting your time and money with this garbage, look into "Sams Teach Yourself Adobe Acrobat 5 in 24 hours" star-reviewers seriously notice that they are solely five-star-reviewers. Naturally I am very skeptical of their 5-star review of this or any other book. Select their "See all my reviews" buttons to see what I mean.

This manual will get you up and running using Acrobat 7 very quickly. I had no idea Acrobat did so many things! I had a presentation to do and in Acrobat I made a "PowerPoint" like slideshow and embedded my Camtasia movies. As a result, at the end of the presentation, before I even left the room I received 4 referrals for work (which I closed on). The book more than paid for itself!!

I highly recommend this information, through and easy to use book for anyone who wants to tap into the awesome power of Acrobat 7.
