Much like Adobe Acrobat software enabled the publishing of high quality electronic documents that anyone can read, Acrobat.com enables individuals to truly work collaboratively on electronic documents.

Acrobat.com is a set of online services—file sharing and storage, PDF converter, online word processor, and web conferencing—that take advantage of PDF, Adobe Flash and Adobe AIR technologies to deliver engaging online experiences that go well beyond traditional office productivity tools.

Also accessible through Adobe Acrobat 9 software, Acrobat.com delivers a new way for people to work together online.

Centralized online file sharing with access controls, online PDF conversion for up to five documents, and support for high quality, web-embeddable documents;

Developer APIs for real-time collaboration, file sharing and conversion.

In addition, Acrobat.com gives Acrobat 9 users access to a ‘personal workspace in the clouds’ that is available from virtually anywhere for working with others online.

Acrobat 9 users can work with Acrobat.com as a central location for sharing forms and collecting forms data, conducting shared reviews, and co-navigating a PDF document with colleagues.
