Acrobat X Pro / Features

Convert PDF files with one-button ease in Windows® from Microsoft Office applications, including Word, Excel, Access, PowerPoint, Publisher, and Outlook — without ever leaving your authoring application.

Reuse content from PDF documents to get a head start on new projects. Save PDF files as Microsoft Word or Excel files, retaining layouts, formatting, and tables.

Create PDF documents from any application that prints by selecting Adobe PDF as your printer. Acrobat X captures the look and feel of your original document.

With a single click from within Internet Explorer or Firefox in Windows, capture web pages as PDF files, keeping all links intact. Convert only a portion of the page by selecting just the content you want.

Scan and convert paper documents and forms to PDF. Make scanned text searchable automatically with OCR, and then check and fix suspected errors. Text can be exported for reuse in other applications.

Review and mark up PDF files using a complete set of familiar commenting tools. Access markup tools and view comments from a single, unified pane. View all comments in a searchable list that can be sorted by page, author, and date.

Assemble a wide range of materials — including spreadsheets, web pages, videos, and more — into a single, polished PDF Portfolio for high impact. Easily customize PDF Portfolios to reflect your branding and style.

Quickly bring ideas to life through rich, interactive documents. Insert audio, Adobe Flash Player compatible video, and interactive media into PDF files for seamless playback in Adobe Reader 9 or X.

Add bookmarks, links, headers, footers, and numbering so your audience can navigate documents quickly and easily. Save your settings and apply them to other documents in the future.

Quickly and easily edit PDF documents without going back to the original source files. Save time by making simple changes to text and images directly within PDF files. Remove, reorder, and rotate PDF pages.

Make sure source files are simple to locate, access, and archive. Attach them to any PDF document in their original, native formats, ensuring a more complete document of record.

Quickly access the tools you use most — from your favorite PDF document editing tools to your most-often used comment and markup tools — by adding them to the Quick Tools area.

Easily collect data by creating fillable PDF forms from paper or existing electronic files with the Acrobat Form Wizard. Quickly distribute forms, track status, and analyze results.

Create professional forms from out-of-the-box templates or design forms from scratch using Adobe LiveCycle® Designer ES2 software for Windows, included as part of Acrobat X Pro.

Use passwords to help control access to your PDF documents. Apply permissions to restrict printing, copying, or altering. Save passwords and permissions as security policies that can be easily applied to new PDF files.

Maximize your screen for optimal reading and presentation of PDF files with the new Reading Mode. Menus and panels disappear, and a transparent floating toolbar appears, to help you navigate PDF files more easily.
