In today's fast-paced world, staying productive while standing out feels impossible. Adobe is changing that equation by bringing together the trusted productivity of Adobe Acrobat and the creative power of Adobe Express—supercharged with AI—to help professionals get insights faster, create standout content, and collaborate seamlessly.

Generate Professional Presentations in Minutes

The new Generate presentation feature in Acrobat represents a paradigm shift in how professionals create pitch decks, client presentations, and business communications. The process is remarkably simple and requires no design expertise.

Consider a small business owner preparing to land a new client. They can bring their materials—financial reports, product sheets, competitive intelligence, and web pages—into PDF Spaces, an AI-powered knowledge hub within Acrobat that uncovers actionable insights from files and links. Ask AI Assistant to analyze the information and create a pitch deck highlighting the client's pain points and proposed solutions.

AI Assistant quickly creates an outline and offers to generate a presentation. Users can choose the presentation length and tone of voice. Behind the scenes, Acrobat taps into Adobe Express's quick and easy tools, surfacing a library of professional presentation designs. Select a design, and Express generates a polished draft—all without leaving Acrobat.

From there, users can leverage Express's intuitive tools and AI to make edits without regenerating slides. Swap images, add videos by generating new ones or choosing from Adobe Stock, change fonts, rewrite copy, and even animate slides. Teams can collaborate on final edits, apply brand kits for consistency, and deliver presentation-ready content in a fraction of the traditional time.

Presentations can also be created directly in Express, offering flexibility for different workflows and preferences.

Edit PDFs with Natural Language

New chat-based AI in Acrobat gives users a smarter, faster way to complete essential PDF tasks with simple, natural-language prompts. Using AI Assistant, professionals can remove pages, text, comments, and images; add e-signatures and passwords; and execute a wide range of PDF operations conversationally.

The enhanced Help Panel offers clear, step-by-step instructions and troubleshooting support via chat, making even complex PDF workflows accessible to users of all skill levels.

Transform Documents into Personalized Podcasts

For anyone struggling to digest mountains of emails, attachments, and lengthy reports—or to catch up on missed meetings—the new Generate podcast feature in Acrobat is transformative.

Simply pull notes, transcripts, and even 500+-page reports into a PDF Space and ask AI Assistant to summarize the information into an engaging podcast-style audio summary. This hands-free format is perfect for prep on the go—at your desk, in the car, or while walking the dog.

Professional applications include preparing for meetings, staying current on industry reports, and digesting complex materials during commutes. Personal applications are equally compelling: turn educational guides into hands-free audio lessons about gardening, keep up with local and world events through daily news podcasts designed just for you, or consolidate school newsletters, event calendars, and permission slips into a quick weekly audio update that helps keep families organized on the go.

Enhanced Collaboration in PDF Spaces

Beyond organizing materials and generating insights for individual projects, PDF Spaces now serves as a powerful collaborative workspace. New collaboration features allow users to invite colleagues or clients to add files, leave notes, or gather comments—accelerating understanding and ensuring every project drives fast, clear decisions.

This makes PDF Spaces particularly valuable for cross-functional teams, client collaborations, and projects requiring iterative feedback and refinement.

Why This Matters: Productivity Meets Creativity

Adobe's integration of Acrobat and Express represents a fundamental shift in how productivity and creativity intersect. Traditional productivity tools focus on efficiency at the expense of presentation quality. Traditional creative tools require design expertise and significant time investment. Acrobat Studio bridges this gap, enabling professionals to work efficiently and produce visually compelling, professional-grade content.

The AI-powered features don't just automate tasks—they transform workflows. Generating presentations from existing documents eliminates the tedious process of manually extracting information, designing slides, and formatting content. Creating podcast summaries from dense documents makes information consumption flexible and time-efficient. Chat-based PDF editing removes technical barriers and makes document management accessible to everyone.

The Broader Vision

These updates reflect Adobe's broader vision of AI as an augmentation tool rather than a replacement. The technology handles repetitive, time-consuming tasks—allowing professionals to focus on strategic thinking, creative problem-solving, and meaningful human interaction.

By bringing trusted productivity experiences and creativity tools together, supercharged with AI, Adobe is helping users not just keep up, but stand out in an increasingly competitive landscape.
