Streamline Publishing Workflow From Design to Production

If you create brochures, catalogs, direct mail pieces, ads, or other publications, you can use Adobe(R) Acrobat(R) 4.0 software to achieve unprecedented levels of productivity and deliver reliable, consistent results throughout your entire workflow - from review and editing to preflighting and production.
 
Convert comps to Portable Document Format (PDF)
When you're ready to show your work to clients or colleagues for review, you no longer need to distribute cumbersome printouts or send huge electronic files to reviewers who may not have your authoring software. Just convert your file from Adobe PageMaker(R), QuarkXPress, Adobe Illustrator(R), Adobe Photoshop(R), or any other application to a compact PDF file, optimized for print, press, or onscreen display, with all of the fonts, formatting, colors, and images embedded.

Configure PDF files as you create them to optimize your documents for output on local network printers, high-end printing devices, or the Web.

Distribute PDF files for review and edits
Quickly distribute your PDF file for review via e-mail or the Web. Anyone with Acrobat or the free Acrobat Reader can view your work, exactly as designed, on any computer. Using electronic notes, highlights, strikethroughs, clip-art stamps, and other markup tools in Acrobat 4.0, your reviewers can add comments, edits, and approvals directly on the PDF file and return them to you electronically.

Send final PDF files to the printer
When your project is complete, send your PDF file to the printer electronically with everything required for preflighting in one neat package. Improved color management in Acrobat 4.0 allows you to embed ICC profiles in your PDF files and support for Adobe PostScript(R) 3 means you can count on getting the highest-quality output every time.

Make last-minute fixes
Find an error just before printing? No problem. Acrobat 4.0 includes several features that facilitate late-stage touch-up of PDF files. You can make minor text changes using the Touch-Up Text tool and use Photoshop and Illustrator to edit graphics directly within your PDF document.
