Summary: QuickStart Guide_PDF with Acrobat
Comment: This is a fine, basic starter book for introduction to Adobe Acrobat 5 PDFs. But if you are searching for anything more than the basics, be prepared to buy an additional, more-in-depth guide, in the way of follow up. At several locations within this book, the author states, "... [a particular subject] is beyond the scope of this book." But this is true of most of the QuickStart guides. They are *perfect* for introduction to the concepts and basic use of platforms or software - and accomplish the task admirably well. But if you need guidance with the use of JavaScript, etc., in Acrobat, look elsewhere.

Summary: Fast overview
Comment: I found the book a rapid and easy way to get a whole survey of all features of Arobat. When completed, I knew of features I had no idea were there, and was surprised with many "that's cool" features. Now when I have a future need, I will recall it from reading the book, and use it for reference to learn it in depth on a real application. So, if you are looking for a complete survey you can complete in less that two days, this book is quite good for that purpose.

Summary: The best Adobe Acrobat book for beginners
Comment: I give workshops on Adobe Acrobat to university faculty and staff, and I'm always asked for recommendations for a book on the topic. As far as I'm concerned, this is the ONLY book for beginning and intermediate Acrobat users. Adobe's Classroom in a Book, which could have been such a good idea, is riddled with errors (including errors on the CD that were there in the version 4 book), not very well written, and costs more than twice as much.
Jennifer Alspach has done a great job of taking a difficult, complex subject and making it interesting (and even fun, occasionally). The organization of the book is just right, and the topics are thoroughly covered. As an author, I also appreciate the nice layout and design and the high production quality from Peachpit Press. This is a must-have book if you are interested in Acrobat!
