Corporate Training:
Adobe® Acrobat® 9 Pro
1 day Introduction
1 day Advanced-1
3 days Advanced-2
Adobe Acrobat is a unique suite of applications which enables the creation of portable document format (PDF) files. Once converted to PDF, documents can be viewed by anyone who downloads the freely available Acrobat Reader with all their original layout, pagination and graphic content intact. Because of their extremely compact file size, PDF documents constitute an ideal way of distributing documents over the web, via email or on CD-ROM. Adobe Acrobat PDFs are also increasingly being used as a highly efficient method of delivering publications to prepress agencies.
We offer two one day courses on Acrobat: introduction and advanced, though clients requiring in-house training often prefer a single two day course. Adobe Acrobat is one of the regular scheduled computer training courses, held at our central London training centre, and we can also organize in-house training anywhere in Canada and US.
Our Introduction to Adobe® Acrobat® 9 Pro course assumes no prior knowledge of the Acrobat suite and teaches users how to generate PDF files from packages such as Microsoft Word and add basic enhancements to the PDF file using Acrobat 7 Professional.
Our Advanced 1 Adobe® Acrobat® 9 Pro course includes such topics as the creation of customized job options in Acrobat Distiller, the use of Acrobat Catalog and the creation of interactive forms.
Our Advanced 2 Adobe® Acrobat® 9 Pro course is designed for experienced Acrobat users who intend to use on-line forms on their website or intranet. It shows how to enhance Acrobat forms by JavaScript programming. (No previous JavaScript experience is necessary.)
