Adobe® Unveils Next Generation Acrobat® XI
Powerful new PDF solution addresses productivity gap across devices and platforms
Bangalore, India — October 3, 2012 — Adobe® Systems Incorporated (Nasdaq:ADBE) today unveiled Adobe Acrobat® XI software, a powerful new solution that rises to today’s complex document challenges. The industry standard for PDF software will now feature complete PDF editing and export to Microsoft PowerPoint; along with new capabilities and functionality designed for tablets and mobile devices, such as touch-friendly capabilities on tablets and smartphones allowing users to add comments, fill in, save and sign forms. Acrobat XI also supports IT departments with more seamless Microsoft Office and SharePoint integration, easy deployment, applications virtualization and robust application security to help provide a low cost of ownership and sound return on investment.
Products included in this release are: Acrobat XI Pro, Acrobat XI Standard and Adobe Reader® XI.
Description: C:<span style=’font-size:11.0pt;font-family:The mounting productivity inefficiencies and cost of document-based challenges are highlighted in a recent global IDC white paper. A typical company with 1,000 employees has a productivity cost of US$15.9 million annually according to the white paper. Addressing these inefficiencies would be tantamount to hiring an additional 213 people.
“The compounding complexity of work has never been more pressing. As the number of mobile devices and the use of cloud services surge, information workers must be empowered to work more effectively with documents anywhere on any device,” said Melissa Webster, program vice president at IDC. “They need a solution that enables them to collaborate with others inside and outside the firewall while at the same time meeting IT and organizational requirements for streamlined management, application security, and secure delivery of information – all with a high ROI.”
“More and more information is being generated, shared and consumed in documents than ever before,” said Kevin M. Lynch, SVP and GM of Acrobat and Document Services at Adobe. “Working with online forms, collaborative PDF reviews and signatures are the everyday norm for business professionals who were once simply content creators. IT departments need to support these changes while maintaining and maximizing the use of existing infrastructures and systems, as well as provide support and services that enable their organizations to take advantage of new business opportunities, improve results, justify return on investment, and lower the total cost of ownership.”

Umang Bedi, Managing Director – South Asia, Adobe, said, “To help keep Indian businesses globally competitive, we see our customers focusing on boosting collaboration, extending infrastructure so employees can be just as productive on tablets and smartphones as they are on laptops, and investing to make their business secure in an increasingly digital and complex environment. Acrobat has been a trusted desktop solution for leading organisations across the country for many years, and the release of Acrobat XI will continue to help address productivity challenges and boost organizational efficiency.”
Sriram Sai Venkata Achyutuni, Manager Global Technologies Services, Apollo Health Street Limited, was part of an international pre-release program to trial Acrobat XI before its launch. “Acrobat XI provides conversion features that bring value to our organization by reducing the time we spend on creating and editing new documents,” he said. “It is very interesting to see how Adobe has integrated its Acrobat solution to support mobile devices like smartphones and tablets and even some new security features that have been introduced in the latest avatar.”
V Narendra Kumar, Senior Vice President – Technology, MPS Limited, said he had also experienced the benefits offered by the new product. “Acrobat solutions have long-been a hallmark in improving productivity for knowledge workers,” he said. “With Acrobat XI, we believe Adobe has taken the conversation on productivity and collaboration to a very different level. We are excited to see some of the new features like the ability to edit text and images inside of PDF, their seamless conversion to other document formats and support for multiple devices.”

Edit PDF files, modify paragraphs, images, and objects by simply clicking and dragging using the new, intuitive Edit Text and Images tool. Arrange and visually merge select contents and multiple documents into one organized PDF file, while retaining source file integrity.

Duterte proposes another UN August 21, 2016 Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte railed against the United Nations today after it called for an end to the wave of killings unleashed by his war on drugs, saying he might leave the organisation. Duterte also said the Philippines will invite China and African nations to form another global organisation in place of United Nations, as world body is not doing enough to address hunger and terrorism. There appears to be human rights working for terrorist and mafia in third world to keep their states in dire state. Two UN human rights experts last week urged Manila to stop the extra-judicial executions and killings that have escalated since Duterte won the Presidency.
