enable them for commenting in Adobe Reader. With Acrobat 8, you retain control over docu-
ment content. Concerns about the manipulation of original work product are controlled because
you can impose usage restrictions that limit what the recipient can do with your PDF le. If you
are concerned about providing the client with a document before you have been paid, or if you
don’t want to give another attorney your 60-page condominium declaration, deliver your
documents as PDF les that can be viewed only on screen and neither printed nor copied.
Information presentation
Acrobat 8 includes a display function—Full Screen Mode—that can be used to present exhibits in
court proceedings much like specialized trial presentation applications. In this mode, the
toolbars, menus, and navigation panes disappear and exhibits are presented in full-screen view.
In the courtroom, Acrobat 8 has distinct advantages: It costs substantially less than special
purpose trial presentation applications and is more user friendly. e marquee and dynamic
zoom tools allow you to quickly and easily focus the viewer’s attention on specic portions of
documents and images. Trial presentation applications still have a place in document intensive
cases (10,000+ pages) and for displaying synchronized deposition transcripts, but Acrobat 8—by
virtue of regular use in daily workoers second-nature ease of use.
When it comes to sharing copies of presentations, Acrobat 8 has advantages over Microso
PowerPoint.™ Presentations converted to PDF can be viewed by anyone with the free Adobe
Reader. You do not need to worry about whether the recipient has the right version of Power-
Point or the fonts needed to view the le, and the le is easier to send via electronic mail because
of its compact size. If your presentation includes full-page images from original documents,
Acrobat 8 does a better job of displaying full 8-by-11 pages. Coupling full-screen mode with
Acrobats ability to create a single PDF le from a mixed collection of PDF les and image les
(.jpg, .tif, .psd, etc.) creates a powerful tool for legal professionals. e resulting combined PDF
le or package can be further enhanced with bookmarks, links, comments, and Bates numbers.
If you need to display and work with digital documents, then Acrobat 8 oers compelling
features and ease of use.
Closing Argument
Adobe PDF has become the de facto standard for the exchange of documents in the legal commu-
nity and the de jure standard for electronic court submissions. Acrobat 8 oers legal profession-
als powerful yet intuitive tools for working easily and eciently with PDF les. Included are
tools for creating, accessing, and enhancing PDF les; legal-specic tools for Bates numbering,
redaction, and metadata removal; tools for collecting and securing information; and tools that
facilitate collaboration. Download a free trial version of Acrobat 8. For more information, visit

als at http://blogs.adobe.com/acrolaw/.
