Forms Authoring in Acrobat 9

Adobe announced Acrobat 9 on June 2, 2008. There are many new features, of course!

One of the challenges of software development is taking something complex and making it easier.

Acrobat 9 has greatly simplified the area of Form Authoring. Creating, distributing and collecting form data is easy enough for just about anybody.

In this podcast, you'll see the simpler, streamlined form creation capabilities of Acrobat 9.

While we're talking about forms, Adobe made another change. Acrobat Standard users can now create forms and Reader-enable forms. Reader-enable means to "bless" a form so that a user with just the free Reader software can save form data.
