PDFs and Adobe
October 14, 2009
PDF documents are a common occurrence on Job sites and when dealing with government agencies. Some sites require you to sumbmit PDFs but editing PDF documents requires the full version of Adobe Acrobat which is often not available.
Inzone Software offers a PDF converter which is free for a 15 day trial. The full version costs $89 which is still cheaper than a full version of Acrobat.
If you do decide to spring for Adobe Acrobat, Adobe Labs has tons of software and support for everything from making movies to publishing your own iPhone apps.
If you run into any snags, Adobe Labs also has a Forums section that can provide fast and easy help.
