Adobe interview: Bob Wulff, Sr. VP for Acrobat Engineering
Bob Wulff, Senior VP for Acrobat Engineering, talked recently with
AcrobatUsers.com about his long-time role--he's been involved from Acrobat's "gleam-in-John-Warnock's eye" days—and specifically about the development of Acrobat 8 and Acrobat Connect. “Acrobat 8 has a taste of some new features that are really just the beginning of what you'll see in the future,” he says. “A good example is the integration of Connect with Acrobat. That's really Step 1 in what I think will be a long and very exciting journey.”
Creating Barcoded Forms with Acrobat 8
Lee Sutton, Senior Solutions Architect for LiveCycle Barcode Forms, explains how to use Acrobat 8 to add a 2D barcode to a PDF form to capture user-entered data, eliminating the need to manually enter it from completed forms. The article—available for download in PDF—includes a sample ARESed PDF417 barcode that illustrates what can be done.
