Streamline collaborative processes
Traditional, paper-based document collaboration processes make it difficult and expensive for content creators to reliably distribute documents, gather and consolidate feedback, and ensure that source content is not inadvertently altered during the review cycle.
Key challenges
The key challenges to streamlining collaborative processes are:
- Lack of automation in the collaborative processes bogs down review cycles, slowing time-to-market and increasing costs.
- Lack of interactive communication among document reviewers and the inability to consolidate comments duplicates efforts and causes costly errors.
- Difficulty of creating searchable archives impedes the ability to easily comply with government or corporate policies.

The solution
The Adobe Intelligent Document Platform streamlines collaborative processes across the extended enterprise to include employees, customers, partners, and suppliers. Intelligent Documents can be created from nearly any source application — including office productivity suites, graphics applications, and CAD drawings — and routed to users, with or without the help of content management systems. The integrity of the source document remains intact, comments can be tracked throughout the review cycle, and approvals can be managed more efficiently using digital signatures.
