Since 2024, Adobe has implemented an AI assistant and some other artificial intelligence tools very useful in its flagship application: Adobe Acrobat. The goal? Simplify the use and modification of PDFs.
Consulting a PDF is an act all that is most commonplace. To modify it, sign it, or even copy and paste, on the other hand, this is another story. If you thought that modifying a PDF was off -putting or complex, Adobe has the intention of changing your mind. How ? Thanks to a few well thought out optimizations and a big boost of his AI. Here are the five best optimizations of Adobe Acrobat.
Summarize a document in a question
Reading PDF documents is not always a pleasure. Especially when they make dozens of pages. Whether they are scientific studies, contracts or technical documentation, no one wants to lose a whole day to read the small characters.
That’s good, because Adobe has integrated into his assistant an extremely effective “summary of a text”. It can, in one question, give you all the important information, that it is in one or in several documents.
The AI assistant can thus synthesize and put back in context the different files at its disposal to offer you a factual analysis, give elements of comparison, propose avenues of reflection, in short, thanks to the “summary” function, you instantly save time and mental space. And that is precious.
The AI assistant finally allows you to understand the small lines
If Adobe Acrobat’s AI assistant can summarize documents to you and explain certain points to you, he can also simplify more technical parts, especially in contracts between two professional entities. Whether you were preparing to sign for a new job, or want to cleare the GTC that you never read, the AI assistant is there for you.
It is of course able to summarize the content precisely, but above all it can decipher the small lines that are sometimes difficult to understand and alert you. You will have the certainty of signing a document of which you will know all the ins and outs.
Create content with image generation
You are shaping your PDF and you realize that you have nothing to illustrate it? Rather than leaving this arid communication document, why not use the image generation by IA integrated into Acrobat?
You just have to write a quick, choose the style, the image format and let AI Adobe Firefly take over. The image then obtained can be cropped, resized and placed anywhere in your document. Adobe has even taken care to place linear benchmarks so that you know exactly where your image is in relation to your layout.
Better still, in terms of creations, Adobe goes further and can also help you in creating a cover letter according to the content of your CV. And with multi-document treatment, it is also possible to imagine writing a cover letter which takes into account both a post sheet in PDF format as well as your CV. To obtain the perfect and tailor-made letter for the desired position!
Translate without losing the layout
If you work internationally and you have to communicate in another language with your partners, you know how long it can take time. Not only must you often pay particular attention to translation, especially when using technical jargon, but you also have to review the whole layout so that it corresponds to your new calibration.
With the AI assistant, Adobe is effectively accompanied you again. Not only does Adobe’s artificial intelligence perfectly translate your documents, but in addition it takes care, without effort, to keep the layout so that your document is readable and well presented, whatever the language used.
The security of your documents at the heart of the AIA Assistant
If there is one thing on which Adobe is on horseback, it is the safety of your documents. Because the company knows full well that a good number of sensitive documents pass on its application: contracts, pay sheet, bank statement … The type of file that we obviously do not want to see disseminated or used to train an AI.
Better still, the elements modified in Acrobat remain partitioned to your only access, unless you choose to share them with another confidence user. Adobe also plans to offer a backup of content modifications or access available over 30 days. After which, they will be deleted to guarantee maximum confidentiality.
