I bought this guide because the others in this series have been effective.
This guide, however, is for the complete computing novice who needs help to open a document and some serious hand holding. It doesn't address Acrobat Connect at all and is very lightweight on form creation and distribution whilst being hot on how to customize the desk top and listing every feature of every menu.
If you're familiar with any CS3 products then the majority of this book is redundant. On the whole I'm really disappointed and wish I'd bought something else.

Easy read
16 Sep 2007
Format:Paperback
Going from Acrobat 6 Pro to Acrobat 8 was much easier with this book. I have bought books from Peachpit press before and their structure is easy to follow. Even for just looking up what you need, it is easy to get it then get out. I would recommend this book to anyone.

As Good As It Gets
5 Oct 2007
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
My instructor recommended the Quick Start series as the best option, and she is right. I find the Adobe Acrobat 8 Quick Start guide to be every bit as comprehensive as the manufacturer's user guides. If you can hold back and wait for the Illustrator CS3 Quick Start guide, which will not be available until next month, I recommend that you do. I had to buy Real World Illustrator CS3 Industrial Strength Production Techniques, because I had a project immediately due, and find that while the guide is beautifully produced with many color pages, its size is unwieldy. The Quick Start series gives you everything you need to learn the basics and more in a compact format.
Good start for version 8
21 April 2008
Format:Paperback
Excellent beginner to intermediate level user of Acrobat adapting to version 8 Standard. Sets up good groundwork for understanding version 8 Professional and LiveCycle Designer. Adobe is probably going to be the premier documentation program in the coming years due to its versatility and interactive features; if you haven't already done so, I would recommend getting a background in it using this book.
