Comments from those who selected it as one of their Top 10 Tools in 2008

  • "We take Acrobat for granted: but the ability to create, access, circulate and use e-books and other material without concern for platform, fonts etc. continues to be quite wonderful."  Jerome Martin
  • "Adobe PDF Writer / Adobe Reader - Both of these are essential. Reader because a huge amount of information is now in PDF format – and it sorts out all those A4/Letter and other format issues – and Writer because it allows me to share information in a standard way." Charles Jennings
  • "There might be others that leave a smaller footprint or are quicker, but it still the standard"  Harold Shaw

Comments from those who selected it as one of their Top 10 Tools in 2007

  • "Both (Reader and PDF Writer) are essential. Reader because a huge amount of information is now in PDF format – and it sorts out all those A4/Letter and other format issues – and Writer because it allows me to share information in a standard way. Charles Jennings
  • "Educational content delivery is greatly simplified when one does not have to worry about the receiver's ability to open it.   With .pdf, I know that students will be viewing my files precisely the way I want the content viewed"  Britt Watwood
