Book Review
I recently purchased the Adobe Classroom in a Book for Acrobat 8. While it is a big book, 520 pages, it is thorough and complete. There is so much to learn but it is presented in a simple easy to understand manner!
Amazon's price was great and so was the prompt delivery!

Excellent
You need to spend some time going back and forth between your computer and this study book but it explains pretty much all the nuts and the bolts of this program.

Acrobat 8 Classroom In Book Great review
Being that I haven't upgraded my own instruction on Acrobat since version 6, I found the Adobe Acrobat 8 Classroom In A Book a great review of a great application. Yet another great textbook from the long line of support from Adobe.
