We're all for beefing up the security in Adobe's Acrobat products, and that's one of the things the software maker has done with its new Acrobat X family, which includes Acrobat X, Reader X, the Acrobat X Suite, and new document exchange services at Acrobat.com.
The Acrobat X platform employs sandboxing security technology (Protected Mode in Reader) designed to mitigate the risks of viewing PDF files.
Acrobat X also brings a bunch of new features to the table, including new guided Actions to simplify multi-step document preparation and publishing processes, new customization capabilities in PDF Portfolios, and new document services available at Acrobat.com to help streamline collaboration.
