Document Center


Document protection

Adobe® Document Center allows you to control who has access to you important documents and what they can do with them — open, print, comment on, or copy. You can set protections for specific individuals or groups and set time limit access with the confidence in knowing you can change your controls at any time.

Verified e-mail authentication

Adobe Document Center uses verified e-mail addresses, via Adobe IDs, to validate access to your documents. Unlike sharing passwords or pass phrases, this means each recipient has his or her own unique ID and password to gain access to your important documents.

Active control

Adobe Document Center applies persistent protection that stays with the document, regardless of where it goes. This feature means you can also change any aspect of the protection you apply to the document at any time, even after distribution.

Document tracking

Adobe Document Center has two levels of document tracking: Document Audit and Document Statistics.

  • Document Audit allows you to know exactly what actions have been taken, by which individuals, with specific time and date stamps.
  • Document Statistics shows aggregate document actions, with no specifics for individuals or times.

PDF, Word, and Excel Support

Adobe Document Center supports PDF, Microsoft Word, and Microsoft Excel file formats for easy integration into any document collaboration workflow. Word and Excel integration applies additional levels of protection through the addition of a plug-in from Adobe LiveCycle® Policy Server™.

Acrobat 8 integration

Adobe Document Center integrates smoothly with Adobe Acrobat® 8 software. Right from the menu, you can apply protection and track your important PDF files. In addition, you can take advantage of Acrobat 8's Microsoft Outlook plug-in to protect your documents right from the applications you use most.
