"Everything we do depends on the presentation of ideas. Acrobat enables us to take any content — rich media presentations, ad proofs, or administrative documents — and deliver it to clients, vendors, partners, or publishers exactly as we intend."
— Joel Giullian, account director, Goodby, Silverstein & Partners
IMPROVED Do more from the ribbon
Now you can complete more common tasks without leaving Office — like converting a doc to PDF or creating and sending a PDF for review. Acrobat Pro users can even create a PDF and run an Acrobat Action.
Preserve more than your look and layout
Smarter than your average PDF, the PDFs you create with Acrobat remember all the formatting information contained in your Office files. So it's easy to convert them back to Office files in the future.
Convert Word to PDF for reliable viewing
When you use Acrobat XI to convert a Word, Excel, or PowerPoint file to PDF, people will see it just like you sent it — whether they're viewing it on a computer, tablet, or smartphone.
