This version was released a few days ago, and its setup package is 263MB in size. Everything that followed is history, and today things look great - the PDF format supports a lot of features, and the last version of Adobe Acrobat Professional, the tool used to create PDFs and to manipulate them in various ways is here waiting to be reviewed.Īfter almost two years since the last version, 7, which was released in January 2005, Adobe takes out the new weapon called Adobe Acrobat Professional 8. On the 15th of June 1993, the tools required to create and read files using this new document format were launched. The first time this technology made it to the public eyes and years was in 1991, when it was called Interchange PostScript, but the next year, at Comdex Fall, this new technology called PDF 1.0 won a 'best of Comdex' award.

Today, this isn't something out of ordinary, but this is what John Warnock from Adobe was dreaming at the beginning of the last decade. The dream we're going to talk about today is that of being able to send full text and graphics documents using email that can be viewed on any machine and any selected document could be printed locally, changing the way that information is managed.

A lot of things that become notorious after a while start with a dream and a handful of people that believe in it.
