Presentation Highlights

Acrobat Connect

meetings, eLearning, and online presentations that audiences can see and hear
anytime, anywhere, through any standard web browser.

Upon completion of this presentation you will know:

• How to Host an online meeting with Acrobat Connect


• Manage attendees and take notes


• Communicate with attendees via voice or keyboard


• Broadcast live video during your presentation


• Record the completed meeting for others to view

Additional features will be covered that are best learned in this hands-on environment.

Acrobat 8.0

Adobe Acrobat 8.0 is one of the most amazing programs yet to be published by a software manufacturer. There are so many things you can do with Acrobat that the limits of the program are usually more related to the limits of a user's imagination than the program itself. This portion of the meeting will give you a good start on how to take advantage of previous and new features that will address your electronic publishing needs. Regardless of the work you do on a computer, at one time or another Adobe Acrobat will be your constant work companion.

We'll expand on the information you'll receive throughout the year with more guest speakers, online discussions, shared examples, and member learning support.

Meeting Preparation

For our future discussions and hands-on activities, members will need to purchase or download and install the 30 day try out of the latest version of Adobe^® Acrobat^® Professional 8.0
