Adobe Acrobat Professional - A Lawyer’s Best Friend

12:00 am September 25, 2008 by Brian J. Ritchey 

For those who don’t have the professional version of Adobe Acrobat - get it.  There is just too much you can do with this application to not have a copy of it available.  No matter if you practice primarily in litigation or transactional law, Acrobat Pro is a must-have tool for lawyers.

Version 9 adds some new features that are geared to legal professionals:

  • Enhanced Redaction and Bates Numbering
  • File splitting
  • Better Save to Word with flowing text
  • PDF Portfolios (Packages on steroids!)
  • More powerful Document Comparison

The feature I like best in version 9, though, is the new PDF Portfolios.  Click here to see a video outlining the features of PDF Portfolios.

With the ability to do Bates numbering, redact documents, create forms, collaborate with others, all without sacrificing security, Adobe Acrobat Professional is a must-have application for lawyers.

As an added bonus, Rick Borstein of Adobe has a blog for legal professionals where he provides ways to utilize Acrobat in a legal environment.  You can view his blog by clicking here.
