Bernhard: Hi, my name is Bernie and I'm a business and executive coach, and I work with business owners, executives in all different kinds of companies and their leadership teams, helping them to be more successful at what they do. And I like Acrobat DC. I give it a five rating. I've upgraded from an older version of Acrobat and of course the Acrobat Reader, but those are... And I've tried some other programs from time to time to try to work with sort of PDF files, but I find none of those have the functionality or certainly the ease of editing like Acrobat DC does. I have been using an older version of Adobe Acrobat, and the functionality just doesn't work. It didn't work for me anymore in terms of being able to print different things. So I love in the newer versions you have many more options for printing, like printing booklets and things like that. Also, the ease of editing text. Those were all cumbersome in the older versions. So it was very easy to get started with Acrobat DC. Downloaded it. It was very intuitive. I'd like how the upgrades are easier. Or the changes certainly from the older versions are much easier to find in the way they've laid out the menu structure. So I was up and running with using it very quickly. And I quickly noticed how you can now highlight the different fields and move things around. So it was much easier to get to know than I remember when I first started with the old one. It was fairly cumbersome to figure out in which menu you could do what kind of access, what sort of tools. It's very nicely laid out now and very easy to use. Yeah, I'd recommend everybody use it. I think PDF files are ubiquitous at this point. We're always getting them. We always need to go in and make some edits on them. And certainly the free reader, everybody has that, but it doesn't help you except to be able to read it. Also for creating forms, sometimes you can edit things when somebody else has given it to you that they want to give you information. But if you want to set that up, create your own forms to have other people fill in and just manipulating the documents that you're getting, creating new documents, I highly recommend it. I think it works very, very well.
