Adobe Launches "Acrobat X" with Sandboxing Security

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.
