Baker covers all the major components of the program and includes a multitude of Workflow Tips designed to give the reader immediate information on how to use Acrobat's features effectively, how to make planning decisions, and what to watch out for. Topics are self-contained within each chapter. Baker also includes a comprehensive project chapter that illustrates a real-life scenario, from project planning to form design processes.
